Tips[edit | edit source]
- Centaur can utilize Tempered Blade to greatly increase its critical chance up to 62.5%, providing an additional 30% overall DPS.
- Blocking with melee will grant knockdown protection against obstacles, allowing for smoother flight. Alternatively, performing a slide/dash attack will allow passage through obstacles without slowing down.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
The Centaur Leak during Update 15.6.1.
- A Centaur is a mythological creature that is half-human, half-horse.
- Incidentally, there is a species of Rhinoceros beetle called the Centaurus beetle. The Centaur's blade resembles a Rhinoceros beetle's characteristic horn while the body of the weapon resembles the beetle's head.
- The Centaur (along with the Fluctus and the Itzal) was accidentally leaked in Hotfix 15.6.1, where a bundle called the "Itzal Raider Pack" visually replaced the Stealth Pack in the Market. The Stealth Bundle still functioned as normal however.
