This test will test your knowledge and wits about surviving the clockworks. It is based on the repetition and skill observance of many players. Ready? Here we go!

1. You just descended into the first clock works level, What do you do?
A. Run straight out and whack and hack at the first thing you see.
B. Take time to check the gate, and re-equip accordingly.
C. Equip the the AoA and run out and burn everything.

2. A lumber approaches! What do you do?
A. Run at him and whack whack whack!
B. Circle to the left or right of him and strike from behind.
C. Fuuuu Just burn him! Mahahahaaha!

3. Arena has come, and a bunch of wild mechas appear!
A. Run around and strike at everything you see.
B. Start running in a circle and strike accordingly.
C. Freeze em! Burn em! Repeat.

And thats that! Here are the grading scale of the test!

A=3 - You are a Quickus Strikus! You like to move fast, think fast, and well... rather die fast. You may be termed as a heat sponge, often either a gunner or a swordie, mostly the latter. You favor fast and speed enhancing items. The sooner its done the better.

B=3 - You are A Tacticus Modus. A more well balanced Fighter, you plan and strategize before you go, though not favored much by the Quickus Strikus. (HEY NOOB LET"S GOOOOO!) is often the common line you hear. Though you die less often, your over analyzing of things can fuddle your daring in doing things quickly. Still the turtle won the race didnt he?

C=3 - You are a Elementalist Psychoist. Not much can be said here. Although your mortality is surprisingly low, You have made a name among the monsters of clockworks, a name whispered in fear, a fear of facing pure unadulterated elemental psychotics. What stands in your way, you burn, what you can't burn, you freeze, what you can't freeze you either posion, blast, stun, or shock. Explosions and outrageous and phenomenal destruction is your love and life. 95% chance your a bomber, Ironically there is a Mad bomber suit you could dress for the occasion...

So what are you? If you don't have purely three the dominance of 2 letters make your postion. If your one of all three, You are a Confusus Laymenus. You don't know what your true nature is, or your playing style. Find one and settle with it, the world is easier when you found your niche.

Replace fire with Voltaic Tempest and thats me on all Cs. It works. Throw in some VV if there's a mender.

If it is T1, A is totally an acceptable answer. Even most of T2, now that I think about it... hmm.

I say A & C for all of them,

I say A & C for all of them, except I'd rather use Voltaic Tempest. And throw in a ton of FoV charge attacks.

1) I'm equipped for the first floor before going down the elevator, so why would I have to double check?
2) depends on how many people there are and what stratum. I can sometimes knock out a lumber before he even attacks. Otherwise, my shield can typically deflect one blow and I can go back on the offensive.
3) freeze is by far the worst status and it doesn't combine with fire. Why would I do something so stupid?
