Kid Character Grown up after Meeting Korin-sama - DBO 2nd CBT Reviews Part II

New Games Frontier

Lv30 - Grown-up Goku

On Day One of this test, we're just Lv5. But the next day, the system automatically upgrades us to Lv30! So, for the next 2 days, we'll be able to experience much more fun. What's more surprising? Our kid character will fully grow up after completing particular quests!

According to previous information of the game, there will be a vital quest about Master Korin at the top of Korin Tower. Players don't have to actually climb all the way up the tower, instead they can find a NPC that looks like an alien to help transport to the tower. Many child characters can be found gathering there and waiting for being transported.

To get transported, you need to get the title - "Upa's Friend" by completing the hidden quests from the nearby NPC Chief Bora in which you use the newly-got skills and defeat the enemies. Near the transport portal, trainer NPCs of different classes can be found. Later on, we find the money in the warehouse increases. Guess that's for getting new skills and to make sure that the character upgrades successfully.

When you reach Lv30, there're more basic combat actions, including Charge, Dash, Guard and Counterattack for now.

"Charge", activated by holding the "Z" button on the keyboard, is literally to accumulate enough Qi for launching powerful skills.

Double tap the direction button, the character will "Dash", sprinting about 5 meters in a flash with a wind effect, which is a most effective move when the opponent is "Charging". You can also "Dash" sideways or backwards to dodge or flee.

Hold the "Shift" key on the keyboard to "Guard". Once on "Guard", there will be a countdown gauge below the character. Guard as long as you want before it comes to zero. Guarding at the right time successfully seems to give you the chance to launch "Counterattack" automatically, which is not yet validated in this test.

All of the above works efficiently only against NPCs and won't be of much help in PvP combat.

By talking to the trainer NPC of your own class, you learn skills one by one. The more frequently you use, the more proficient you'll be at using them. We only assign some skills to hot bars and have a try. After that, we find out that as a Gimajin, the character is good at casting buff and debuff on the opponents besides long-distance qigong attack. The character will dance when it's buffing, and the buff seems to affect all the members in the same team.
