What Is the 'Untamed Class' in Moonlight Blade?
Moonlight Blade (the wuxia MMORPG originally released on PC in 2016) does not have a school literally called "Untamed." When international players search for the Moonlight Blade untamed class, they are almost always looking for the game's wild, feral, animalistic martial arts schools — the fighting styles that feel untamed compared to disciplined sword schools like Taibai or Zhenwu. Two schools fit that description: Gaibang (Beggars' Sect) with its raw staff-and-fist brawling, and Wudu (Five Venoms) with venom arts and beast-like stealth strikes.
The original PC version launched with 8 schools and 4 alliances, and each school has a distinct combat identity. Understanding where the "untamed" playstyle sits in the class roster helps you pick the right character before committing to endgame content.
Different regional versions translate school names differently. If a guide mentions an "Untamed" or "wild" class, cross-check it against the official school list — Gaibang and Wudu are the usual answers.
Untamed Playstyle Candidates: Gaibang vs Wudu
Both schools reward aggression, but they express "untamed" in opposite ways. Gaibang brawls openly in the middle of chaotic fights, while Wudu hunts from the shadows.
| Attribute | Gaibang (Beggars' Sect) | Wudu (Five Venoms) |
|---|---|---|
| Role | Melee Bruiser / DPS | Assassin / Melee DPS |
| Difficulty | Medium | High |
| PvE rating | B — solid, overshadowed by Taibai | B — situational damage |
| PvP rating | A — thrives in chaotic fights | S in the right hands |
| Skill identity | Staff/fist fighting, sticky pressure, dirty-trick CC | Venom arts, stealth, devastating burst |
| Best for | Relentless brawlers | Experienced assassin players |
Gaibang — The Open Brawler
- Sticky close-range pressure and dogged sustain
- Dragon-stance grab ignores many mobility skills
- Chains throws and stuns to isolate targets in arena
- Very forgiving in chaotic group PvP
Wudu — The Shadow Hunter
- Stealth-based strikes with venom arts
- High risk, high reward burst gameplay
- Deletes squishy targets when piloted well
- Highest skill ceiling among untamed-style classes
Wudu is rated High difficulty for a reason: its damage is situational and its survivability is low when caught. If you are new to Moonlight Blade, Gaibang delivers a similar untamed feel with far more room for error.
Untamed Build Paths: PvE and PvP
Character strength in Moonlight Blade stacks from several systems: Mind Methods (心法), Bian Stones (砭石), gear affixes, and Meridian (经脉) allocation. Both untamed schools have clear build directions for each content type.
| System | Gaibang PvE | Gaibang PvP | Wudu Focus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mind Methods | Attack + team-buff methods | Control-reduction swap for lockdown survivability | Burst and stealth-enhancing methods |
| Bian Stones | Attack and Block | Attack and HP | Attack and Penetration |
| Meridians | Attack and HP | Attack and HP with crit resistance | Attack power and crit |
| Affix priority | Attack, HP | Crit damage, damage reduction | Crit, Agility, movement |
Key build tips for untamed schools:
- Gaibang's grab-and-lockdown PvP build chains throws and stuns to isolate one target — use the dragon-stance grab to punish enemy dashes.
- Wudu should save its stealth burst for low-HP targets rather than opening engagements.
- Practice combos in the training grounds before ranked duels; both schools depend on chain timing.
- In group PvE, Gaibang's team-buff methods make it more raid-valuable than its B-tier damage suggests.
PvE builds stack raw attack and sustain; PvP builds always trade some damage for control resistance and crit resistance. Never run a pure PvE setup in the arena.
Step-by-Step: Starting an Untamed Character
Create Your Character
Customize freely with the detailed creation system — appearance can be adjusted later with in-game items. Your personality answers during the opening questionnaire flavor story interactions, so answer honestly.
Progress the Main Story First
You follow the main storyline before formally joining a school such as Gaibang or Wudu. Prioritize main quests over side content until around level 30–40, when daily activities become worthwhile.
Join Your Untamed School
Once the story allows, commit to Gaibang or Wudu based on the comparison above. Technical players lean Wudu; players who want reliability pick Gaibang.
Level an Identity Profession
Choose an identity such as Hunter, Musician, Chef, Escort/Guard or Doctor. Chefs and Doctors are beginner-friendly, providing steady silver and team utility while you gear up.
Run Daily Dungeons and Gear Up
Spend your daily entry attempts on dungeons and guild missions — the main source of enhancement materials and gear. Refine your weapon first, equip blue/purple gear from quests, and join a guild early for buffs and group content.
Save bound points for value packs rather than random draws. Untamed schools scale hard with gear refinement, so consistent daily farming beats gambling.
Untamed Class Milestones Checklist
Untamed Progression Goals:
- Complete the main story to unlock school joining
- Master the core Gaibang grab chain or Wudu stealth burst in training grounds
- Reach level 30-40 and start daily dungeon runs
- Unlock and level one identity profession (Chef or Doctor recommended)
- Set up separate PvE and PvP mind method loadouts
- Join a guild for buffs, rewards and group content
How untamed schools rank in the current tier list:
| School | Group PvE | PvP | Overall Tier |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gaibang | B | A | B tier |
| Wudu | B | S (skilled hands) | B tier |
| Reference: Shenwei | S | A | S tier |
| Reference: Tianxiang | S | A | S tier |
A well-played B-tier class can outperform a poorly-played S-tier one in Moonlight Blade. All classes clear standard content comfortably — pilot skill matters most.
FAQ
