CABAL Introduction
Hello fellow CABALers! First of all, I would like to welcome you all to my guide. I pray that this massive effort will be a massive contribution to the SEA community and aide in the rapid growth of cabalSEA. Now, let me go on. CABAL is a 3D action hack n' slash MMORPG. Featuring 6 playable classes and beautiful skill animations unseen in most MMOs, CABAL is one of the best that I have personally seen on the gaming market. CABAL's realistic graphics seem to make the game more attractive to teenagers 14+, but this game is suitable for pretty much all ages in my opinion. Currently, all versions of CABAL except for the Brazilian version are F2P. The cap levels in CABAL are 120 (closed beta usually), 150 (open beta/full version), and 170 (full version after lengthy development). Now that we all have a small seed of an idea of what CABAL is, let us grow that seed into a fruit bearing tree.
CABAL System Requirements
Before we go anywhere, let's make sure that you have what it takes to run CABAL. Despite CABAL's amazing graphics and animations, the requirements are surprisingly low. Here is a table:
In order to check what your computer is equiped with, follow this simple process.
Start menu -> Run -> Type in "dxdiag" without the " " -> Hit the run button and you're there.
Game Controls & Special Options
So now that we're sure that we can play CABAL, let's learn how to even play the game.
Essential Hotkeys for Everyday Survival
W = walk forward
S = backpedal
A = rotate camera left
D = rotate camera right
Q = strafe left
E = strafe right
1 - 0, -, and = are used for skill and potion hot keys.
F1 - F4 are used to cycle between your different skill bars. You have a total of 4.
I = item menu (also includes all your equips).
K = skills menu
C = character info menu
T = quest menu
O = options menu
P = party list
G = guild
B = buddies
X = extracted items menu
Tab and M = mini map. Tab is more of an instant map. You must hold down tab to keep the map viewable. Release tab to close it.
Spacebar = pick up items
Left click = attack / pick up / speak to npc / target monster
Right click = adjust camera angle in all directions
Mouse wheel = adjust focus
Options that Make Life Worth Living

Setting up shop. (Found by clicking on yourself and clicking on the drop down menu. The shop holds up to 8 items).
Chat System
Each mode of chat is represented by a small capital letter. Here is how it works
C = Channel chat
N = Public chat
T = Trade chat
L = Shout chat
G = Guild chat
P = Party chat
W = Whisper chat
You can change chat modes by either clicking on the letter and changing it to your desired chat mode, or you can simply type /(letter of chatmode) and it will instantly switch over. For whisper chat, you must type in the name of whom you wish to whisper to. The whisper box saves recently whispered to users for your convenience.
You can color your chat by using $[Insert number here] ... [Insert text here]#.
Ex. $1 Hey, what's up?#
Multiple colors can be used in 1 line as well by following this system:
$40# Hello everyone, $ $41# thanks for reading my guide. $ $21# Hope you enjoy it. $
Be sure to make those spaces between the $ and # signs, otherwise you will simply end up typing a $ instead of color coding your text.
Classes
Ah, we are finally on some game related materials! CABAL has 6 classes. Those 6 are Warriors, Wizards, Bladers, Force Bladers, Force Archers, and Force Shielders. Each class has their ups and downs, their wins and fails, so let us review each class in a general synopsis.
Warrior // Hometown: Bloody Ice
The warrior is your typical giant sword wielding, huge damage dealing tank of destruction. Warriors may wield either great swords or daikatanas. Their usual armor used is the armor set. Warriors deal the highest amount of damage in CABAL and most of their skills are single target skills. Also, since the armor set is the strongest armor defense-wise, warriors boast the highest damage and one of the highest defenses. Because warrior skills are all 1 sided and mostly fall under the sword skill rank, warriors are a very easy to class to play and are probably one of the best ones for beginners.
Pros
+ Highest damage dealers
+ One of the best survivors due to high defense and HP
+ Shiny armor and large swords are appealing to most
+ Exceptional in PvP due to attack and defense.
Cons
- Most people do not like how warrior skills take a long time to cast
- Said to be hard to train with in Lakeside due to lack of stun skills
Misconceptions: Warriors do NOT attack slower than everyone else. Their skills take LONGER to cast, but as for normal attacks, they are no slower than anyone else's attacks. Nor do warriors walk the slowest due to armor weight.
Wizard // Hometown: Desert Scream
The wizard is your AoE, spellcasting, ranged class. Wizards wield dual orbs as power sources for their magic and wear the martial set for higher avoid, but lack defense as compensation. Wizards are excellent fighters due to their long range AoE attacks that still deal high amounts of damage. Wizards also have the ability to freeze monsters from a range so that they cannot even reach you, making your lack of defense not even a factor to worry about. Since wizards are a 1 stat class like warriors and mainly use just magic skills, wizards are a class suitable for beginners as well.
Pros
+ Best long range AoE
+ Capable of freezing opponents from far away, preventing you from harm
+ Decent avoid rate
+ Powerful in PvP due to freezing and range
Cons
- Low defense
Misconceptions: So far, none that I know of. I remember hearing that wizards have more HP than bladers, but I have never confirmed that notion.
Blader // Hometown: Desert Scream
The blader is your dual sword hack n' slash, slice n' dice class. Bladers have the option of wielding dual katanas, dual blades, or one blade and one katana. Similar to wizards, bladers equip the martial set for optimal avoid, but lacking defense. Bladers are a very fast class. Many of their skills deal some kind of AoE damage and have some of the prettiest skill animations the game has to offer. Bladers are typically seen as a beginner friendly class as well since a majority of their skills only lie under the sword skill rank.
Pros
+ Best avoid in the game, practically untouchable in PvE
+ Beautiful skills with AoE slapped onto almost all of them
+ Strong and easy to grow
Cons
- No major advantage with PvP like massive defense and long range. Player skill is more required on this aspect.
- Said to have the lowest HP of all classes.
Misconceptions: Blades are NOT slower than katanas. Blades and katanas only differ in attack, magic attack, hit rate, and appearance.
Force Blader // Hometown: Green Despair
The force blader is magic & sword slash 'em up class. Force bladers equip katanas and orbs and use the battle set for balanced defense and avoid to fit the force blader's balanced build. Force bladers have a unique balance between magical damage and physical damage. The fact that force bladers absolutely must have both magic and sword skills makes them slightly harder to train and less for beginners. Though force bladers have a bumpy road up, they even out with all the other classes in the end.
Pros
+ Perfectly balanced to fit all situations
+ Powerful AoE skills
+ Awesome PvPers
Cons
- Hard road on the way up
Misconceptions: Force bladers are NOT weak. Some people believe that force bladers suck, which is absolutely incorrect. Force bladers simply require more time and effort to make just as good as everyone else.
Force Archer // Hometown: Green Despair
The force archer is your long range, mostly single target, sharpshooter class. Force archers equip dual crystals, each one half of their bow and the battle set for balanced defense and avoid. Force archers mostly have single target skills. I almost want to call them long range warriors since they do have AoE skills, just not many of them. Force archers have been deemed the best PvPers due to their range, stun, and powerful single strike attacks. Dash also makes them hard to catch for short range classes.
Pros
+ Powerful damage even though they are long range
+ Most likely to win a PvP with the least amount of player skill needed
Cons
- May struggle with large mobs as they don't have much AoE and aren't tanks like warriors
Misconceptions: Though it is true that force archers are easiest to PvP with, being a force archer doesn't automatically guarantee you 100% success in a PvP.
Force Shielder // Hometown: Bloody Ice
The force shielder is your sword and shield magic class with defense comparable to that of a warrior. Force shielders wield a blade and a crystal that transforms into their shield and wear the armor suit set to enhance their defensive powers. Force shielders are perhaps the best at PvE due to their skills having large AoEs, and lots of their skills cover the full 360 degrees of turf. Force shielders have been said to be the less capable PvPer since huge AoE skills are much weaker when used against a single target compared to the skills of a warrior and force archer. Similar to force bladers, force shielders must obtain a balance of magic and sword.
Pros
+ A tank, pure and simple
+ Awesome AoE for first class PvE
Cons
- Slightly harder to use for PvP
Misconceptions: Force shielders are NOT weak. People keep getting the idea that force shielders suck because European CABAL destroyed the force shielder's critical hit rate. That does NOT apply to SEA.
