View source for Custom Soul Link Effects

A '''Soul Linker''' casting Soul Link (Esma) on another class grants that class's normal Blessing/Increase AGI/stat bonus, exactly like on any official server - '''plus''' one of the custom bonuses below, unique to Project Artisan. These are also listed in-game via '''@artisan''' - Custom Soul Link Effects.

== Knight ==

Can use '''Parrying''' with a 1-Handed Sword (normally requires a 2-Handed Sword).

== Paladin ==

Takes less damage while Devotion slots are filled - '''2% per active slot, up to 10% at 5/5'''. Only applies when the Paladin themself is the one being hit, not when damage is being redirected onto them from a Devoted ally.

== Rogue ==

Strip skills (Weapon/Armor/Shield/Helm) bypass Full Chemical Protection, and '''Double Strafe deals +150% damage'''.

== Star Gladiator ==

Granted '''Parrying''' and '''Lord of Vermillion''' (both Lv 10), usable regardless of class/weapon requirements - both are revoked the moment Soul Link ends.

== Assassin Cross ==

'''Sonic Blow''' (and Soul Destroyer, pre-renewal) deals '''+30% damage''' against targets at or below 15% HP - an execute effect, with a Critical Wound visual on the killing blow.

== Sniper ==

'''Sharp Shooting deals +20% damage.'''

== Whitesmith ==

While '''Meltdown''' is active, every '''Cart Termination''' hit stacks a '''Melt''' debuff on the target (up to 100 stacks, refreshing on every hit) - each stack adds 0.1% Neutral damage taken, so a fully-stacked target takes '''+10% Neutral damage''' from anyone.

The same Cart Termination hits can also break the target's Weapon, Shield, and Helm (normally Cart Termination never triggers equipment breaking at all).

== High Wizard ==

* '''Jupitel Thunder''' has a 10% chance to chain into a nearby enemy for one extra hit (which can rarely chain again itself).
* '''Storm Gust''' and '''Lord of Vermillion''' both deal '''+10% damage.'''

== High Priest ==

'''Holy Light''' becomes a 3-hit skill - each hit deals full damage, so this '''triples''' Holy Light's total damage output while linked.

== Soul Linker - Esma & ES Skills ==

'''Esma''' needs no prerequisite: cast it any time. You no longer have to use Eske/Eska, Estin/Estun (Lv 7+), or cast a Soul Link first. SP cost and cast time are unchanged.

'''ES skills on players''': Esma, Estin, Estun, and the other ES skills now work on other players wherever you can attack them - PvP, GvG, WoE, Battlegrounds, and duels. Esma on a player also needs '''you''' to be Soul Linked (Soul Link buff active), or the cast is refused. Esma on monsters needs no buff.

'''Eske''' stays monster-only: using it on a player fails and stuns you for a moment.
