Guide🔗

Note: this is NamuWiki community assessment (KR server), subjective community opinion. No S/A/B tier letter is given.

Performance / build: Base class Fighter; Tier 3 options are Sword Master / Sword Immortal / Argent Sentinel. Passive "Mysterious Caretaker" starts combat with the unremovable buff "Simgeom" (Mind Sword) at 2-4 stacks, reducing combat-attack damage taken by 70% and blocking crits; gains 1 stack per kill; ranged attacks against him are countered by consuming a stack. From 5-awakening it also gains 1 TP per kill. It also copies 1-4 removable buffs to the lowest-HP ally at turn end (max 5 stacks). Very strong defensive passive against combat-attack enemies; many of the game's legendary archer attacks are combat attacks, so he can counter them, giving him a strong showing in PVP for a while. However he has no answer to AoE, so after Black Prince's release in early 2025 he gets cut down helplessly by Asura Pacheonmu, dulling his former reputation.

Class route: Recommended primary route is Sword Immortal, whose class passive is very strong (physical pen / AoE / +counter damage / cooldown reduction) and which grants the main unique skills Flying Heaven Falling Sword and Moon-Shadow Traceless. Then take Argent Sentinel to grab Division Control for a complete base. Both Sword Immortal and Argent Sentinel derive from Ki-Swordsman, so you can skip the Swordsman route and save relatively more Opal.

Unique skills: Moon-Shadow Traceless is the main damage + mobility skill (130% base, up to 180% by consuming Simgeom; teleport attack, precious since Emilio's move is only 3; can return to origin, so it manages risk; cooldown 3). Flying Heaven Falling Sword only deals 50% damage so it is a weak AoE, but its core value is gaining Simgeom stacks equal to the number of enemies hit; used for the buff, not damage; long cooldown 4. Division Control creates a special zone within 2 tiles for 2 turns granting teleport/ATK up/crit up/Simgeom plus an AoE control zone, costing only 1 TP; strong if positioned well, but the AI uses it at odd timings on auto, so manual control is recommended; cooldown 4. Ultimate Moonlight Slash is a green-attribute AoE that wipes all enemy buffs within 2 tiles then deals ATK-based damage, ideal for sniping Medici buffers in PVP; somewhat overshadowed by Black Prince's Atomic Blast (which also wipes buffs) but still usable.

Weapon & gear: The exclusive weapon Moonlight Sword grants ATK up and crit up as extra stats, with a weapon effect giving ATK based on crit, cleanses a debuff each time the wearer is hit, and adds resistance / reduced crit taken / crit up. Considered to have the strongest weapon skill among all exclusive weapons in the game; good on Emilio but rated OP-tier and effective on anyone (especially Black Prince, whose only weakness is debuffs). Armor is flexible: Ilgi-Dangcheon set for a physical-pen build, Crow set for a crit build (with Moonlight Sword), or Pungun set for tanky play. Recommended accessory: Wolf Fang, which suits him and, since buffs are copied, can pass a physical-pen buff to allies.

Evaluation: A melee dealer regarded as a strong counter to combat and ranged attacks thanks to the Simgeom buff. Strongly defensive; with the exclusive weapon he becomes strong against debuffs and magic attacks too. Downsides: the commonly recommended Sword Immortal class is helpless against AoE, and his only mobility (Moon-Shadow Traceless) requires an enemy to exist, so his mobility is lacking. At launch he was even called broken-tier, but in PVE the AI mishandles Division Control, and in PVP (as of 2025) Black Prince reigns with AoE basic attacks and a 1-turn instant Asura Pacheonmu, while his buff-wiping ultimate overlaps with Black Prince's Atomic. Still, he is only "hard to use," not weak: manual Division Control, dropping Division Control, or taking Argent Sentinel instead of Sword Immortal are all viable fixes; pick the right battlefield and his power shows.
