Even to a layman's eyes, The Company's accomplishment rate is unbelievably high. Its success is based on its policy to adapt only the verified strategies. Trust isn't just applied to the relationship between the client and the employee; it's also applied to everything that the employee does to satisfy his client. He wouldn't hesitate to use even the most antiquated-looking gun, so long as it's reliable.

Even so, some members of The Company craved new things, especially cutting-edge technology. They were interested in this new technology named the Core Energy, whose existence they learned through a job. But like everything else that was new, new energy sources were usually seen to be unstable, for good reason. In other words, the Core Energy wasn't trustworthy according to their organization's standards. Thus, despite its great potential, it was only treated as trading goods. But they didn't stop propagating the usefulness of the Core Energy every chance they got, and finally, they were given a chance to present their product for testing. The others, who were well aware of the conservativeness of their organization, shook their heads and sighed as their innovative-minded colleagues entered the meeting room.

Unlike their expectations, however, the meeting didn't end quickly. Those who waited outside the room could only see a mysterious light that leaked around the door frame. After a spectacle of mysterious light that changed its color, an unbearable silence fell upon the room a few times. The door of the meeting room groaned as it swung open.

It was the moment that the new position Specialist, as in the specialist of the Core Energy, was born.


The Specialist fights with the best Empyrean technology and armaments available. With a high tech Core Blade and Pistol in hand, the specialist can manipulate the battlefield with various immobilization tactics.


  • At level 50, the Specialist awakens as a Core Master then at level 75, the Core Master awakens as a Pathfinder.
  • His subclass cosmetic effect is that the Specialist's handgun will be replaced with a Core Pistol.
  • His 2nd Awakening cosmetic effect covers the Specialist in holograms as he briefly reads from a holographic document.

Becoming a Specialist

The Agent must first reach level 15.

  1. Talk to Blacksmith Linus in Elvenguard.
  2. Clear Full Moon Thunderland.

Awakening as a Core Master

Here's my report.

The large amount of energy discharged during our engagement with The Company three weeks ago was not external interference. I pored through their business negotiation transactions. They only had dealings with civilian and noble clients. It did not make any contact with any military organization capable of such effective crowd control. Also, all the traces found on the battlefield belonged to The Company and us. I've hired a Cleaner for the investigation; you can trust me on this.

In short, I believe the crowd control technique that obliterated our troops belongs to The Company itself. From this point on, my report will be focused on how it's gotten hold of such great power. But before we get into that, please take a look at this fragment that the aforementioned Cleaner has obtained. It's part of an improved version of the personal firearm, which I reported to you a few months ago. It's created and used by the members of The Company called the Specialists. At the time of my initial report, it was determined that this weapon was non-threatening because it was too unreliable to be useful in actual combat. It was, however, the only thing The Company used during our last engagement with it that showed a dramatic change.

That's right. As some of you may know, the Specialists have incorporated the Core Energy into this weapon. It's surprising that such a conservative organization has allowed its members to use this newly discovered source of energy, which can be discharged fairly easily, but is too difficult to control afterward. And this fragment proves that the Specialists haven't stopped studying the application of the Core Energy. If that energy three weeks ago is the results of their research so far, it's the greatest threat that we've ever faced.

I propose that we find out what exactly The Company can do with this energy as soon as possible. This concludes my report.

- From an enemy's report obtained during an annihilation operation


The Specialist must first reach level 50.


Awakening as a Pathfinder

Master, I have a question. Why did you choose such an ordinary student like me as your heir? You would say it's too late to ask that now. You're long dead. I don't think you did because of what I think, but just in case you did...

"Well-developed scientific technology cannot be distinguished from magic."

That was your mantra. And I believed in it. If you chose me as your heir because of that, you were stupid. None of the other students agreed with it.

Do you know how difficult things have been for me? I'm charged with the CP Project on a budget that could feed the entire country. You knew I didn't have good grades. Of course, you knew: you graded me. Thanks to you, I had a hard time convincing others of my worthiness.

Sometimes, I sigh in spite of myself. I'm studying day and night, getting myself into all kinds of trouble, wasting all my youth, and for what? Making your dreams come true.

But that's not what upsets me the most. It's that you were right all along.

Trivia

  • Like the Mechanics, the Specialist's theme and motif are also based on technology, but instead has a heavy focus on science fiction.
  • In the Pathfinder's Awakening lore, that Well-developed scientific technology cannot be distinguished from magic line is a reference to Clarke's three laws, more specifically the third law created by British science fiction writer, Arthur C. Clarke.
  • For his titles:
    • A Pathfinder is another way to refer to someone as a Pioneer that involves the first to partake in early beginnings of a project.
  • For his skills:
    • Core Praxis.png Core Praxis - Praxis is a Ancient Greek word meaning Process and may also refer to the act of engaging, applying, exercising, realizing, or practicing ideas.
    • The Petite Pathfinder's animation of him firing a rifle is actually based on a removed skill called ACR-0 that once existed in Korea's Test Servers until it was later replaced by CEAB-2.png CEAB-2 instead.
