Dekan Newbie Guide V 1.3

I see a lot of people asking for dekan build but too lazy to start their own guide with their findings and experience so I will try to do something like a small user guide for the new guys around. This is for you, the one who choose the dekan path.

First of all dekan is a popular race for the new guys due to evolve (dragon form) so is easy to understand why many people choose it as its first char in Rohan, however we need to see how this char grows during the game.

Getting started with your dekan:
You need to know what do you want to do with your dekan, this the first thing, dekan can play the damage dealer role or the tank role very well, it also can be a back up healer supporting the elf main healer with some life saver heals.
Once you have defined what you want to be here comes the development part, if you choose the damage dealer path you will have a fun job but you also need to be useful to your party, remember Rohan is mostly party based so everyone needs to participate.

Builds:
Dekan has 3 builds: STR, Full VIT and INT.

STR DEKAN: This is (in my personal opinion) the funniest dekan build, you are in the middle of the action having an active role in it. Dekan do a lot of damage but they can be squishy at the first levels. There is one important point to consider, the best DD str dekan Dragon fighter is separation, if you go this path and want to get evolve later you may want to have a reset handy.
Let’s go to the build:

Stats: easy to figure as dragon fighter 3 str 1 vit, but you need to add dex, my recommendation is get dex to base 50 when you reach lv 50, then is up to you if you want to add more dex.

Skills: this is for a full sepa Dragon Fighter which is the faster way to lv up to 50:

-Darkness 5 (dekan can use elemental attack with no problem and it adds a lot of good damage in PVE and slows enemy attack in PVP) or Frozen 5 (slows your target movement speed) **important just get 1 of them**

-Taunt 1 (requirement/ party skill to save your healer ass)
-Dragon’s power 5 (boosts your melee attack, recommendation is get it to lvl 7 if you can afford skill stones)

-Separation 1 (sepa)
-Sepa slash 5 (sepa main melee damage)
-Nail zhen 5 (sepa aoe to get good damage and take the agro on you when necessary)
-Health Funnel 5 (must have it or die , recommendation is get it to lvl 7 if you can afford skill stones)

-Health to mana 1 (lv 2 optional, it makes your mana infinite, u will ove it)
-Dragon skin 3 (it works good in PVP and helps in PVE for some stunning mobs like in R1)
**optional**
-Mana to health 5 (only if you feel that you need some extra hp heals)
-Breath 1 (only to pull monsters)

This is the non sepa alternative, but your attack will be really slow and your Damage per second will be far less than the sepan build:

-Taunt 1 (requirement/ party skill to save your healer ass)
-Dragon’s Power 1 (to save skill points, is up to you if you want to get it to lvl 5, it works good too)
-ForeFoot Swing 1 (requirement)
-Dragon’s trail 5 (melee base attack)
-Zhen counter 5 (AOE)
-Health Funnel 5 (same as before )
-Health to mana 1 (lv 2 optional, it makes your mana infinite, u will ove it)
-Dragon skin 3 (this is great skill for PVP, max it if you feel comfortable with it)
**optional**
-Breath 1 (only to pull monsters)

Gear:

Weapon: In low levels weapons are not that good but you can have good advantage from the optional when refining (don’t ask how to refine, this is about dekan not forging ).
For your weapon the best a STR dekan can get is melee attack %, but at low level your melee attack is low and the weapon bonuses are crap, so get STR bonuses weapons to deal more damage and get more defense and HP from STR, the higher the better, other option can be VIT but your damage will not be as high as it should be.
My weapon optional recommendations are:
-health and mana drain: leeching is the best way to survive at low levels and the damage you deal at this lvl is good enough, Nail Zhen will fill your HP with this optional.
-damage drop: if you get a good % of damage drop this will help you with your “squishiness”, this will reduce the damage you take from mobs and players.
-attack speed: great option for separation and you can combine it with the HP drain and u will get a great result.

Armor:
Armor is important, high physical and magic defense are obviously the goal. Try to get your enchanted Froianne as soon as you can and with the best stats you can get.
Optional items for armor refine:
-Minimum Damage Drop: self explanatory, you will receive less damage from mobs when they hit minimum.
-Damage reflection: at low levels mobs have los HP so damage reflect is a good option to get rid of them fast, if you use this try to get a weapon forged with damage drop
-HP bonus: this will give you a good amount of HP to ensure you survive.

Accessories: mainly STR, but STR/VIT works good, Ruined Khan’s (mini boss at ahkma cave) accessories are great for start, later try to get Mollek’s (boss at ahkma cave) ring of prodigious power, VIT accessories are good too and also dex, this will depend on your game play.

VIT DEKAN: This is a “sand bag/tank build”, you are there to take all the damage, you need to be skillful to keep the agro on you all the time, is not just standing there, you need to keep the mobs hiting you, use your taunt like crazy to be a great tank and every party will love you, if you do it wrong you are screwed .

Stats: Not hard to find out, all VIT, you need no more than VIT, this will give you HP, defense and damage. One skill killer and a huge meatball. This build is effective as Dragon Knight as much as Dragon Sage, but normally the VIT build head towards to Sage because of the defense buffs it gets. No reset is needed here, but your full be full party dependant to lvl up fast. Notice this build has no dex so you will miss a lot with your melee skills, for this reason I leave them open for you to choose if you want to max them or not.

Skills: With this build you will save a lot of skill points for your next skill tree, this is for a full VIT non sepa Dragon Fighter:

-Darkness 1 (dekan can use elemental attack with no problem and it adds a lot of good damage in PVE and slows enemy attack in PVP) or Frozen 1 (slows your target movement speed) **important just get 1 of them**

-Taunt 1 (requirement/ party skill to save your healer ass)
-Dragon’s Power 1 (to save skill points, is up to you if you want to get it to lvl 5, it works good too)
-ForeFoot Swing 5 (this is your main attack, recommendation is get it to lvl 7 if you can afford skill stones)

-Dragon’s trail 1 (to save skill points, is up to you if you want to get it to lvl 5, it works good too)
-Zhen counter 1 (to save skill points, is up to you if you want to get it to lvl 5, it works good too)
-Health Funnel 5 (same as before )
-Health to mana 1 (lv 2 optional, it makes your mana infinite, u will ove it)
-Dragon skin 3 (this is great skill for PVP, max it if you feel comfortable with it)
**optional**
-Breath 1 (only to pull monsters)

Weapon: In low levels weapons are not that good but you can have good advantage from the optional when refining (don’t ask how to refine, this is about dekan not forging ).
For your weapon the best a VIT dekan can get is HP %, but at low level the weapon bonuses are crap, so get VIT bonuses weapons to get more defense and HP, the higher the better.
My weapon optional recommendations are:
-damage drop: if you get a good % of damage drop this will help you be the ultimate tank, this will reduce the damage you take from mobs and players.

Accessories: mainly VIT, but STR/VIT works good, VIT accessories are the main goal, later on you can get wings of death (15 str/15dex/15 vit) to have a more balanced char or get more VIT, I recommend you stick to VIT, the more the better!.

INT DEKAN: Currently bugged, I don’t recommend to use it yet so I won’t include details about it in this guide.

I’m lvl 50, now what?
This is the big question, now what? What will you do little dragon, you have 2 choices here: Dragon Knight or Dragon Sage?

Dragon Knight: Melee based skills, if you chose to be STR dekan this is like the expected path to take, if you followed the sepa you have another choice to make, should I keep my sepa or do I want Evolve?
Evolve is the point here, it gives you big boost in melee and HP, and the more important of all, makes you look cool! .But there is something all dekans must know before making the decision, EVOLVE CAN BE DISPELLED (I warned u), and it has a 10 minutes cool down and it does not reset when you die, this means if you cast your evolve and you die you need to wait the whole CD time to use it again and this also applies if you get dispelled (Evolve STR dekan worst enemy). SEPA SKILLS DO NOT WORK IN EVOLVE MODE.

Ok, having the evolve thingy clear, I will post here some options for the full sepa dekan, this is the dekan without evolve:

Full sepa dekan:
Stats: lvl 51-70: 5 STR 1VIT , lvl 71-99 7 STR 1VIT. Don’t forget to add some dex according to your own experience.
Skills:
-Zhen Mastery 5 (boosts your zhen damage, max it if you can afford lvl 7 stones)
-Critical immunity 1(max it for late game but not until you get all your attack skills)
-Extricate 2 (max it, u will need it)
-Mist 1 (max it only if you like to go hidden around pretending to be a dhan, it is usefull but is up to you to max it)

-Forced lock 5 (boost your critical damage)
-Fast Shadow 5 (lvl 7 if you can afford it, max attack speed)
-Soul Divider 5 (sepa stun max it if you can afford lvl 7 stones)
-Toxic Potion 5 (great for PVP)
-Dark Spell 5 (great for PVP)
**optional**
-blue defense 5 (reduces a fixed amount of damage, some say it is crap some say it works good, I leave this up to you)
-Karma 5 (resurrection skill)

Evolve Dekan: This is why you created a dekan right? Become a big hungry dragon!, here you need to reset your skills and go the non sepa Dragon Fighter way.

Here we go for the Dragon Knight skills:

-Zhen Mastery 5 (boosts your zhen damage, max it if you can afford lvl 7 stones)

Weapon: Melee attack % weapon for sure, the highest you can make and afford.
My weapon optional recommendations are:
-health and mana drain: leeching is the best way to survive

Armor:
Armor is important, high physical and magic defense are obviously the goal. Try to get your enchanted armor as soon as you can and with the best stats you can get.
Optional items for armor refine:
-Minimum Damage Drop: self explanatory, you will receive less damage from mobs when they hit minimum.
-HP bonus: this will give you a good amount of HP to ensure you survive

Accessories: mainly STR, but STR/VIT works good, STR accessories are the main goal, later on you can get wings of death (15 str/15dex/15 vit) to have a more balanced char or get more STR.

-Dark Spell 5 (great for PVP)
**optional**
You can take all the skills I listed before for STR DK if you want, your main skill still will be FFS
-Karma 5 (resurrection skill)
***I have noticed that if you have dragon nail and fast shadow max you can have your target stuned really often however your melee damage is not good, you can take this skills combination if you want but it will only work for stunning your opponent 1 second, sometimes you get a nice stun rush on it sometimes not, try your luck***

Weapon: HP % is the best for this build to max FFS damage too.
My weapon optional recommendations are:
-damage drop: if you get a good % of damage drop this will help you, this will reduce the damage you take from mobs and players.

Dragon Sage: Intended to be the INT oriented option for dekan, this build got screwed due to bug of the skill Breath.

This is powerful as melee but is highly preferred for full VIT due to Impenetrable that gives you a great boost in defense.
As a note Dragon Sage best performance is in Evolve mode.

Str Sage: this is the fastest way to lvl up, perfect for solo and great in party.

Skills:

-Zhen Mastery 5 (boosts your zhen damage, max it if you can afford lvl 7 stones)

-Forced lock 1 (requirement)
-Flow 5 (lvl 7 if u can, stun)
-Full blast Assault 5
-Dragon Wing 5 (increased movement speed)

Accessories: mainly STR, but STR/VIT works good, STR accessories are the main goal, later on you can get wings of death (15 str/15dex/15 vit) to have a more balanced char or get more STR.

Ok this is all I have for now from my own experience as dekan, if you have something to add or something to remove please post it and I will make the corrections if necessary, please avoid the flame here because this is intended to help not to enrage.

I don’t want to tell you how to play your char but I hope this can help you as a reference guide about the dekan and encourage you to make your own builds according to your game play and player skills.

I hope you have fun with your dekan.
