As a post-transition profession, the Demon Swordsman has significant differences in effects compared to before the transition. In this issue, the editor will introduce how the Fully Awakened Demon Swordsman performs. After transitioning, this profession not only unlocks new directions in effects but also introduces new skills. Therefore, in this issue's introduction, you can check whether these skills meet your needs.

The Demon Swordsman profession includes a very practical dash skill that allows the Demon Swordsman to quickly approach enemies. This skill is especially suitable for initiating combos, instantly closing the distance with enemies and creating opportunities for subsequent attacks. When this skill is upgraded to its awakened form, it adds an additional Dark Slash, further enhancing its damage output. The core output skill of the Demon Swordsman, Twilight Guide, lasts up to 35 seconds at max level. During normal attacks, it generates a ghost hand for extra attacks.

This significantly increases the character's attack range, and the additional attacks from the ghost hand can increase enemy stagger time, creating more opportunities for the Demon Swordsman to deal damage. In practice, Twilight Guide is undoubtedly one of the main output methods for the Demon Swordsman. Another powerful skill is the Stomp skill, which summons a demon god to perform a wide-range stomp attack. Especially after upgrading to its awakened form, the demon god's stomp leaves a 6-second lasting damage area on the ground, effectively preventing enemies from rushing in and continuously damaging them over time.

Dark Spike is a skill with a very long casting delay, making it difficult to incorporate into combos in actual combat. However, as a continuous AOE skill, Dark Spike can effectively divide the battlefield and create chaos control. It works best when used at its highest level, producing additional effects during output, including piercing impact, so it can be used at the beginning of a combo before entering the battlefield for optimal results. The Demon God Descent skill is the ultimate manifestation of the Demon Swordsman's mastery of inner dark power. The summoned demon god continuously damages all surrounding enemies and grants invincibility during the skill release, breaking through any enemy invincibility state.

However, whether it's Twilight Guide or the Stomp skill, they are only partial manifestations of the demon god's power. Only by using the ultimate skill Demon God Descent as an awakening skill, even if its multiplier isn't the highest, does it provide invincibility during release, allowing the Demon Swordsman to effectively avoid fatal enemy skills. In reality, this skill serves more as a prelude to the final assault, clearing minions to prepare for the boss battle. The passive skill Tread Fire is a powerful follow-up damage skill.
Both normal attacks and skill attacks can trigger the Tread Fire effect, generating a region at the hit target's location that causes continuous damage. Although its range is smaller than the awakened effect of Stomp, the damage is still significant. The passive skill Dark Blade reduces healing effects, particularly targeting self-healing monsters. While it cannot completely prevent healing, reducing enemy healing can provide a considerable advantage in battle.

The passive skill Iron Constitution increases critical hit damage upon being attacked. At max level, just six hits can increase critical hit damage by 50%. In normal stages, if you're confident in your skills, you can maintain this effect throughout. However, in Legendary difficulty, top-tier equipment struggles to withstand continuous attacks from minions, so it's not recommended to take risks. The final passive skill, Covenant, is the Demon Swordsman's exclusive survival skill. When health drops to 35%, it restores maximum health within 2 seconds, providing a second chance.
That concludes the introduction to the Fully Awakened Demon Swordsman. After transitioning, the Demon Swordsman's skill design focuses on both single-target damage and crowd control and battlefield division. If you plan to play the Demon Swordsman, make sure to master the effects of these skills.
