Hailing from the forests near Florin, Shai is the first support class featured in Black Desert on PlayStation 4. Shai utilizes new combat abilities and skill-buffs that are focused on avoiding danger and aiding her allies. On the other hand, Mystic is a powerful brawler, pummeling opponents with a variety of devastating martial-arts skills that strike fear into her foes.
See below for more details on Shai and Mystic’s skills, along with information on the new Dark Rifts.
Shai Skills
- One-Two-Three - Shai’s basic attack using the Florang, which can be thrown up to three times.
- Eat This! - Shai recklessly throws her Florang at her enemies. This skill has the longest range of all the Florang skills.
- Come Out, Come Out - Shai reveals hidden enemies around her by waving around her Vitclari.
- Over Here! - Shai creates a shielded area that protects her allies.
- Play Dead - Shai falls to the floor, tricking enemies into believing that she is no longer a threat. Monsters can see through this ruse, but players on the other hand...
Mystic Skills
- Wolf’s Frenzy - The Mystic hides in the shadows to unleash a barrage of hits against her enemies.
- Rage Hammer - Unleashes her inner power into a massive attack onto the ground, knocking down foes.
- Soul Basher - The Mystic performs a flurry of kicks that deals damage to her enemies.
Dark Rift
- After completing ‘Journey to Mediah’ quests, it will allow your character and all subsequent characters to see Dark Rifts on the map, which have a chance of appearing each day.
- Dark Rifts can appear randomly, and spawn a powerful boss once Adventurers interact with them. The strength of the boss will adjust according to the area in which the Dark Rift spawns.
