Sarlayan himself has no deep feelings about entering the elite stage.
There is no experience of sudden enlightenment, breaking through a bottleneck and taking off. At most, the increase in physical fitness brought about by the upgrade is a little more obvious than before.
After briefly checking the words "Elite Template", Sarlayan quickly turned his attention to the level 0 skill selection panel.
When reaching level 5, the system issued a warning.
Sarlayan's main combat profession, that is, the warrior profession will officially leave the novice welfare period when it reaches level 0, and the skill selection mode will undergo irreversible changes.
"……That's it?"
It’s the same three choices as always, and at first glance there’s almost no change.
After careful observation, I finally saw some differences.
This time, the three options are Shield Slam (defense), Bloodlust (fury), and Giant Strike (weapon). Each of the three options represents a warrior faction.
"So it turned out to be like this."
The three choices given by the previous system did not specify which series. In theory, it is possible for the skills of three single factions to appear at the same time.
After this change, the differences between the three major factions gradually emerged.
For example, if Sarlayan wants to delve into one of the series, the new skill selection mode will undoubtedly narrow his choices a lot.
The knowledgeable guys in the barrage also quickly clarified their thoughts and began to give suggestions on one of the three choices this time.
[Strictly speaking, Xiao Sa's major should be weapon warfare now, but I always feel that violent warfare may be more suitable for him...]
[Hey, heroes agree, this kid is born to be a violent warrior (funny). 】
[...It's better to just say that Sarlayan is not calm enough and uses his hands faster than his brain. Are you sure he can understand this Chinese yin and yang? 】
[Why do you just eliminate anti-war by default? I'm so angry! When will we be able to stand up against war? 】
[Who is a serious person who plays anti-war? Do you play? 】
【I don’t play. 】
[It’s not the early Iron Triangle era of magic, animal husbandry, etc. What shield should a good warrior use? 】
【Despicable! 】
[Uh...that's enough for you, let's start again, right? 】
[Apply for World Heritage, hurry up and apply for World Heritage! 】
Sarlayan has become accustomed to the commotion of the barrage. As always, he ignored the parts he couldn't understand and listened intently to the suggestions given by the understanding brothers and the Analyst Emperor.
[There is nothing to say about Shield Bash. It is a damage-related skill to prevent combat. First, you need to have a shield (funny). 】
[Bloodthirst is the signature skill of Furious War, which can restore a small amount of life while causing damage... This side effect is of little significance to Sarlayan. 】
[Giant Strike is very practical, it can cause a lot of damage while adding an armor-piercing effect to the enemy. 】
[It is recommended to choose Giant Strike. The other two skills are not very useful to Sarlayan. 】
After weighing the discussion with the barrage, Sarlayan followed the suggestion and locked in Giant Strike among the three warrior level 0 skills.
In addition, after the druid level reaches 10, a skill selection panel with new rules will also be provided.
Serenity (restoration), Ferocious Bite (feral), Moonfire (balance).
[Emmmm, all three skills are a bit subtle. 】
[Tranquility is a standing-type large-scale recovery spell. The amount of milk during the duration is amazing, but it will be interrupted as soon as it moves. It is not suitable for Sarlayan's reckless fighting style. 】
[Ferocious Bite is a good skill, and its explosive power is amazing, but the problem is... this thing is a finishing move that consumes combo points. Sarlayan hasn't learned the skill to generate combo points yet...]
[Moonfire is okay at first glance, but when I saw this skill, I remembered the moonfire machine gun that was the favorite of novice druid players in the level 45 era. I always thought it was... very subtle. 】
[Brother, you are showing your age. 】
[Ahem, back to the topic, Moonfire is Druid’s instant damage skill. It doesn’t have strong instant damage capability, but it can add a debuff that continuously causes damage when it hits an enemy. 】
[This skill is quite suitable for attacking monsters, but with the quality of Sarlayan's magic power now, it's probably unrealistic to expect it to cause tons of damage... 】
[So what’s the conclusion? Serenity, Ferocious Bite, or Moonfire? 】
[Tranquility will not be considered. I recommend Moon Fire. After all, it is an instant spell. It may have miraculous effects under certain circumstances. 】
[I recommend taking a wave of Future Warrior style and locking a finishing move in advance, so that you don’t have to worry about it next time you encounter a skill that can generate combo points. 】
Both opinions are valid, and Sharlayan himself prefers moonfire.
This operation of infiltrating Zandalar made him feel awkward. Many times he wanted to tear off the disguise and just rush forward.
This uncomfortable feeling of awkwardness made Sarlayan realize a problem. He was not suitable for this feline form that specialized in stealth operations.
However, the Druid of the Claw is a large category, and felines are not the only choice.
The wolf form that Olfa mentioned before... or canines is also a major faction, and may be more suitable for Sarlayan's style than cats.
Before making his choice, Sarlayan specifically asked the system whether the draconic transformation he had just acquired was compatible with the use of claw druid skills such as Ferocious Bite.
The answer is yes.
In this case, Sarlayan no longer hesitated and decisively locked down the temporarily useless Ferocious Bite, leaving it to complete the skill puzzle later.
From previous combat experiences, we know that maintaining the Dragonite transformation for a long time will put a certain burden on Sarlayan's body.
This is mainly because he is still unable to perfectly control the overwhelming life force in his body. Using this tricky method to bypass problems that cannot be overcome in a short time will inevitably bear corresponding side effects.
Dragonite transformation can only be used as a trump card in times of crisis for the time being, and the situation needs to be carefully considered before using it.
After selecting the skills of the two professions, Sarlayan's muscle soreness gradually eased under the catalysis of powerful vitality.
After successfully completing Olfar's test and receiving the repaired ritual knife from Bwonsamdi, Sarlayan planned to leave the Zandalar Islands and return to Kul Tiras as soon as possible.
The actual function of the Ritual Knife is still unknown. Right now, it is only known that it can suck the enemy's soul into it. There should be other uses.
After leaving Torga's lair, Sarlayan headed toward the northeastern coastline.
To the east of Toga's lair, Sarlayan saw a large pyramid in a distance that was obviously different from the blood troll's architectural style.
This is one of the three seals that the Titan Guardians created for Odir's subordinates, Nazwatha.
The former Titan ruins had already fallen under the crazy attacks of the blood trolls, and now have become one of the large settlements of the blood trolls.
The group of blood trolls that attacked Toga not long ago set out from here.
Nazwatha sits squarely between the realms of Toga the Turtle and Krag'wa the Frog, who guard the Titan Seals like the serpent god Setaris.
But unlike Setaris, who had a large number of serpent believers before his fall, Kragwa and Toga had very few followers left, and their strength had declined very obviously. They were unable to stop G'huun from coveting Nazwatha, and could only barely hold on to themselves. One-third of an acre of land.
Sharlayan was not interested in worrying about the safety of the trolls. Someone in the Zandalar Empire would definitely notice Nazmir's situation.
This attack on Toga was a warning. Before parting with Garni, Loa, the slender-jawed dragon, worriedly mentioned a question.
The Zandalari have not heard news about Roathric the Bat for a long time. They suspect that Sirik may have been corrupted by G'huun and twisted into a minion of the Blood God.
"Zandalari is not at peace either...but this is none of my business. Let their God-King and Council have a headache."
Arriving at the beach, Sarlayan stretched his still somewhat stiff muscles.
Just as he was about to plunge into the water, Sarlayan's intuition, which was much sharper than ordinary people, suddenly started to call the police frantically.
Without enough time to think about it, Sarlayan instinctively rolled to the left to avoid it.
"Snapped!"
A strange red and blue tentacle stretched out from the water, slapping heavily on the shore where Sarlayan had been standing.
After turning over and standing firm, Sarlayan looked at the tentacle with a stern look on his face.
"What the hell is this?" (To be continued)
