Overview

TaeKwons are practitioners of the art of Taekwon-Do. They forego the use of weapons and instead specialize in various kicks. In heRO, TaeKwon specializes in being relatively easy to gear since they forego weapons and weapon cards, which may be expensive. They rely on having a strong base HP to outlast the opponent in combat while having access to single target and small AoE melee attacks while protecting the backline in a party with Flying Side Kick to get monsters' attention. Access to all elemental attacks makes them formidable, especially in dungeons with various elements. Upon reaching base level 90 or higher, they gain strength by completing Taekwon Mission to gain points. The more points you have, the more power you gain. This applies even if you are not the server's top 10 ranking TaeKwon player. Those with the top 10 points on the server enjoy even further additional bonuses.

In heRO, Taekwon's ASPD is boosted to attack faster than any other class when they are unarmed. Compared to the official game, TaeKwons in heRO has a Base Time Between Attacks (BTAB) of 0.7 instead of 0.8.

Taekwon Mission Point Bonuses

A ranking Taekwon player in the Top 10 points on the server immediately unlocks all HP/SP related benefits and gain an additional 100% HP/SP boost for a total of 4x HP/SP compared to a Taekwon with 0 points.

Below are noteworthy custom gears applicable to ALL classes in heRO that should be helpful for almost all classes in their default builds. Note that God Items and MVP Cards are excluded from the list.

Generic Standalone Gears

Aumdura's Grace is a great generic accessory with a slot and all stats, suitable for almost any build Boitata Armor is lightweight with a little bit of relevant stats for every build, great for making generic armor that's needed by every class such as slotting in Marc cards
Green Apple Ring is easy to obtain from a mid-tier mob yet is generically useful, especially before you have any cards
Lantern of Hope has great benefits but is only useful if you are affected by status, or you have a way to inflict it upon yourself
Power of Thor is another good generic headgear with +1 all stats, while having a slot, but it's not as good as Ancient Gold Ornament's secondary stat boost
Tidung has niche use cases for assembling 100% status resist gears without having 100 vit
Ancient Gold Ornament is a good headgear that provides well-rounded stats, at the cost of requiring a high base level and difficult to obtain from the Biolabs
Anarch's Reign and Order have no stats but they are decent substitute when headgear cards matter more than any headgear themselves. They can be used when slotted mid headgear are unavailable

Wings

Zodiac Stone (Zodiac Wings) is helpful for its Double Wing Effect allowing you to take advantage of powerful headgear or armor cards. This can be upgraded to Light/Dark Allegiance Gear wings which are stronger than the Zodiac Stone (Zodiac Wings) but harder to find and more restrictive as it requires allegiance.
Flower Wings has niche use as it's easily the highest default raw DEF and MDEF even at safe refine due to the Double Wing Effect
Aerial Wings, Arctic Wings, Gaia Wings and Phoenix Wings are cheap access to elemental armor without hunting for its cards, while being a decent defense rating for every class when elemental armor is needed

Elemental Set

Based on Elemental Ring, power is granted based on the element of your weapon. Its bonuses can be applicable even for non-combatants as long as the element of the weapon match. This is a soft-combo and you do not need all pieces except for the Elemental Ring, so pick what you need for your build and element of your weapon.

Elemental Ring has no bonus on its own but powers up the entire combo
Elemental Robe has decent MDEF and give certain elemental resistance and status resistance Elemental Cape can be used to do specific bonus physical damage to the 4 basic elements
