## **Crusader**

*"We shall reclaim what is ours."*

The Crusader is one of seven playable classes in Zentrela, wielding a Sword as its weapon of choice. The gameplay style for Crusaders revolves around delivering numerous melee attacks and repeated spell usage, which makes it one of the more simpler classes to learn. Spells such as Cleave & Leap are low Mana attacks, and can rack up damage quickly, though spells such as Gravity & Judgement are incredibly powerful attacks, but require quite a large amount of Mana in order to cast. Spells such as Sword Spirit, Hyper Body & passive abilities such as Sword Mastery & Healthy Diet further amplify their strength, making the Crusader an all-rounded force to be reckoned with on the battlefield, whether in PvE or PvP.

### In-Game Description

*Crusaders are masters of the sword, and also the easiest class to play! Crusaders have a good variety of spells that allow them to alternate between, spell-spamming and left-clicking playstyle. If you want to be able to experience all Zentrela has to offer but aren't great at combat, Crusader is a good class for you!*

### Weapon & Basic Attacks

Crusaders wield Swords, which appear as Swords in-game. The Crusader's basic attack is a simple melee strike.

* At Tier 1, Swords appear as Wooden Swords.
* At Tier 2, Swords appear as Stone Swords.
* At Tier 3, Swords appear as Iron Swords.
* At Tier 4, Swords appear as Gold Swords.
* At Tier 5, Swords appear as Diamond Swords.

The menu icon for the Crusader class uses the same icon as the Tier 3 Sword, an Iron Sword.
