Khali is an easy class for mobbing but a difficult one for bossing. The class is heavily reliant on resetting cooldowns in order to output maximum damage. They have a similar playstyle to Cadena, Kain, and Ark. Not a beginner friendly class since some skills are reliant on others and with certain timings as opposed to other classes where you simply hold down a button.
Khali players are ones who enjoy insane mobility, sand/desert theme, and being rewarded for time spent mastering a character.
Before You Play Khali
Some key things to note for Khali are the low base Critical Rate (35%), No Class Bind, Flora Thief (shared Cash Shop with Adele, Illium, and Ark), and can reach GMS Max Attack Speed (10) with just Decent Speed Infusion and Green Pot. Primary Stat LUK and secondary stat DEX.
Khali has 3 main skills, Arts, Void, and Hex. Arts Skill are used to reduce/reset cooldown of Void Skills. Void Skills are used for mobility, summoning Chakri and canceling Art/Hex skills. Hex skills are used for burst and activating Chakri. This will make more sense as you go on and through each job.
Khali Inner Ability
If you’re training the best Inner Ability will be a combination of Meso Obtained, and Drop Rate. Once you are no longer training and mainly bossing, the best will be Cooldown Skip, Boss Damage, +% Damage to Debuffed in that order.
If you have a low legion and need Critical Rate, replace the Boss Damage line with Critical Rate.
Don’t mess up your Inner Ability since the game likes to trick you into thinking you’ll have a lot but that’s only the case in the beginning. Check this Inner Ability Guide in order to do it the best way.

Khali 3rd Job Skill Build
This is where it gets a bit complicated. You are introduced to Summon Chakri and a Hex skill.
To summon a Chakri 100% of the time you need to “cancel” an Art/Hex skill with a Void skill. This basically means using a Void skill before an Art/Hex skill ends and you’ll summon a Chakri. To activate the Chakri you need to use a Hex skill within range. Once activated it will go around hitting mobs or hitting a boss.
You really want to get used to canceling skills since there will be more to come and Khali’s damage is greatly influenced by how well you can do this. Also, note that with Insanity II you can use Void Rush 3 times in quick succession before cooldown is applied.
