Ursanway

Ursanway is a team set-up in which 6 players play as "Ursans", using the skill Ursan Blessing, while 2 other players play as healers. It is a powerful combination because of the armor-ignoring damage from spamming Ursan Strike, AoE knockdowns from Ursan Rage, and the innate armor and health increase from Ursan Blessing. Ursanway can clear many difficult areas of PvE, such as the Underworld or Fissure of Woe. It is also effective in Hard Mode areas.

Since the entire team revolves around a single skill that can be easily acquired early in the Eye of the North campaign, it is not hard to find teammates. However, this build is very reliant on timing and the lack of any energy denial, as once a character reverts out of Ursan Blessing, they will most likely not be able to use any skills.

The success of Ursanway was damaged by a game update which changed the range of Ursan Strike from Spell to Touch. However, it is by no means a dead build, and continues to be used frequently.

Another common part of an Ursan group is adding a Spiteful Spirit necromancer instead of one Ursan. As many ursan groups are done in Hard Mode, and all enemies attack and activate skills faster in HM, this can be an effective addition.
