Naraka: Bladepoint Heroes – All 7 Character Classes & What to Play

The Anime Battle Royala Naraka: Bladepoint is faced with the difficult task of… balancing an Anime Battle Royale! With heroes employing a quite varied set of skills, each one feels extremely unique, and will inevitably be stronger, or weaker, on Solo or Trio modes.

Each hero can use one Skill (by pressing F), and one Ultimate (by pressing V), each one offering 2 different variations, once you reach a “Greater Understanding” of the hero in question (to do that, you need to reach the 1st Cultivation stage of the hero, by completing the 3 first Cultivation quests).

Below we are going to list all the Skill & Ultimate variations for each hero, making it easier to get a clear overview of the available options, and which character is going to become your main hero in Naraka!
