Overview
Dark Step, previously known as Black Leg, is a leg-focused fighting style offering fiery combat options and is the cheapest among its peers. With four abilities, it is an excellent choice for players starting out in the First Sea or beyond.
The style requires low mastery for its moves, making it accessible for new players. Its signature move, Overheat, boosts damage temporarily by setting the user's legs ablaze.
While it may not match the raw damage of advanced styles, Dark Step's affordability and combo potential make it a compelling option, especially for those who can't yet afford Water Kung Fu or Electric.
Dark Step's Overheat move can make your legs appear on fire, but it only boosts damage for a limited time!
