How to play as a civilian in Iser? The theme of this work is very novel, and the urban supernatural genre is something many friends have not encountered before. At the same time, the gameplay and art style are also quite distinctive. However, many newcomers, especially civilian players, may find it difficult to get started. In fact, the game's resources are relatively abundant and friendly to civilians. Next, let's comprehensively explain how to play so that you can get up to speed faster.
I. Overview of Basic Gameplay
Although it still uses turn-based combat, the gameplay is different, allowing 4-5 variants to be deployed. Although it is traditional turn-based, a new mechanism called "Zhi Ke" has been added, making character equipment more flexible, and the overall skill combination of the team richer. Each character has their own attributes, with lower-tier red, green, and blue, corresponding to Li, Xu, and Yi, which cyclically counter each other. The upper tier has light and dark attributes, corresponding to disorder and constancy, totaling 5 attributes.
Secondly, there is the chapter gameplay, where the main storyline is excellent, featuring puzzles, hidden tasks, and various treasure chest surprises, bringing the joy of exploration. Even if you fail in battle, there will be save points, so you don't need to start over. There are also many PVP and PVE modes, requiring you to match your lineup according to the corresponding stages, and when forming a team, you need to consider the BOSS mechanics and attribute counter situations.
II. Early Game Character Recommendations
For civilian players, although the game's resources are relatively easy to accumulate, in the early stages of character development, it is still necessary to think carefully. Choosing more suitable characters for cultivation can help everyone save resources, and in battle, they can also have a greater chance of winning. Not only is the cultivation more cost-effective, but the benefits are also quite substantial. First, we recommend Lian, who can be obtained on the first day of the game, with a very simple acquisition method, and is an SSR, basically a free character. This character stands out in terms of ability, with skills and ultimate moves that can target single or multiple enemies, making them highly adaptable in battle. Additionally, their passive abilities can provide buffs, increasing damage, healing, and absorbing action progress, making them highly valuable strategically and very suitable for early-game development.
The second recommendation is Gray, who, although an SR, is a very powerful and cost-effective character in the early stages. Through the power of lightning, he can deal high damage to all enemies and comes with a high critical hit effect, quickly clearing out groups of targets. He is very useful in the early stages, able to swiftly eliminate large numbers of monsters, greatly improving the efficiency of early progression. Another character worth getting is Qian Ming, a very easy-to-obtain character and a strong healer in the early stages. She is easy to obtain and offers high value, a no-brainer choice.
III. Zhi Ke
Zhi Ke is something that civilian players must understand well. It is a special type of equipment that characters can use and is a system with significant strategic importance. It possesses skills, passives, set bonuses, and base attributes, which are enhanced through these four dimensions. The colors range from blue to red, with higher quality and rarer items having different enhancement effects across the four dimensions. The base attributes of Zhi Ke can increase attack, health, defense, and speed for all characters. While the attributes for attack, defense, and health are not particularly high, speed is a precious attribute, with clear distinctions between different rarities. Even within the same rarity, different Zhi Ke can have varying speed bonuses, but they are the same at the same level.
IV. Team Composition
Characters generally fall into categories such as damage dealers, tanks, healers, and support. For a basic four-person team, it is recommended to have a composition of damage dealer + healer + support + speed type, or two damage dealers. For a five-person team, a configuration of two damage dealers, one healer, one support, and one speed type character is recommended.
For civilian players, the focus in the early stages is on the lineup for the main story. It is recommended to choose a main DPS, a control, a support, and another role to form a team. A good configuration would be Lian + Marvel + Freya + Gray, where Lian is the main damage dealer, Marvel controls the action bar, Freya provides both debuff and healing, and Gray's buffs can supplement damage, serving as a secondary DPS. The configuration for a five-person team is more flexible, but it is best to include a control character to ensure the output rhythm. When forming a team, avoid being in a situation where the team is at a disadvantage due to attribute counters.
Now, do you know how to play as a civilian in Iser? Even for non-paying players, as long as you pay attention to some details, such as character selection and development, you can develop smoothly in the early stages and even not have too much of a gap with paying players, allowing you to accumulate resources more quickly.
