Hi there, this is my first post and it's just a few questions I've came to think of, playing silkroad.
(I play Silkroad R)

1, Active skills often show damage followed by a (%) with a percentage,
Magic Damage 92-110 (250%)
for example.

What does this percentage mean?

2, I'm playing on several accounts, one of them a lvl 44 full STR bower, and I'm curious about INT bowers. I have a spear nuker so I'm not interested in the nukes particulary, but is INT bowers any good?

3, What good does FW really do? I went there on my lvl 47 onehanded EU tank my first time (grade 1 35-50 obv) and was tanking dat shiet until the boss danced around his stick and hit 7k.
Do you just do FW for experience reward from the boss? I also noticed some qeusts that you do in FW but none of the rewards seem appealing enough. (Except the one with like free SoSun D8 weapon, but that's off my charts atm lol)

4, What does Parry really mean? I've heard so many different opinions of what it actually is

4, I had another question but I just can't remember it, I'll come back update when I think of it

1- The higher the percentage the higher the damage.

2-Int bowers got higher damage but lower hp and their criticals aren't as good as a strength bowers, i am not sure if it is worth it or not though.

3- The mini uniques and The last boss can drop faded beads (sp scrolls), those scrolls can give you between 200 and 20k sp, these scrolls are tradeable btw, also their are 2 treasure boxes in forgotten world each that got a chance of dropping a tailsman, the last unique can drop tailsmans too, collect the 8 different types of the tailsmans and you can trade them for a sosun or you could just sell the tailsmans to other players if you want.

4-Tyt

Oh

my god

200 Sp alone is alot to me ^^

Thanks for the quick reply, I have on problem though

That special attack of the final boss that onehits my lvl 47 tank is lame, and no matter how much I spam click to run away when he puts down his staff it's freaking hard to interupt attacking in SRO :S Last time I did FW on my tank I just sat back taunting him so he would focus me but stay out of range for that attack

Menz pls. Your signature is so long, it's taking over my whole 27" screen.
Change it please =D

Okay, i will later today :/

And I updated question 4!

I am not sure how to deal with the last mob, well just stay a bit far from it's range and use ice wall when needed, but i guess others can help you more than me in that, 1 thing i forgot to mention is that the uniques must be 7 levels or lower in order for them to drop faded beads.

I believe it has something to do with the damage on your weapon. It acts as a multiplier with your weapons mag/phy dmg. That's why you will nuke harder with a spear than that you would with a sword (when everything else is equal ofcourse).

2, I'm playing on several accounts, one of them a lvl 44 full STR bower, and I'm curious about INT bowers. I have a spear nuker so I'm not interested in the nukes particulary, but is INT bowers any good?
Int bow can be decent, but you will need very good gear since you don't have the def of a shield or the extra hp a spear nuker has.

3, What good does FW really do? I went there on my lvl 47 onehanded EU tank my first time (grade 1 35-50 obv) and was tanking dat shiet until the boss danced around his stick and hit 7k.

People do FW alot for talismans. With these you can get a SoX weapon reward which you can then use or sell. Exp is also fairly decent too. I advice you to just go untill the final ship when you run a FW by yourself. Even if you can tank the final boss it's not worth the time.

4, What does Parry really mean? I've heard so many different opinions of what it actually is
Parry determines in some way for how much you will be hit. There's a formula for it calculating the players/mobs offense and your defense and all that. Two numbers will come from that and between those will a player/mob hit on you (min and max damage). Now the higher parry you have, the more often he will hit towards his min damage, aka doing alot less damage over time.

So i still get a chance of getting beads if i solo grade 1 when im lvl 47?

I think that you are too high for a 1* 35-50 fgw to drop some.

Well just level up a bit more and do the 51-60 run.

The final boss that killed you is his nuke so you put your firewall up. he usually nukes every 1 min.

Do you have to be close to him for that nuke to hit because ive never had any really big damage off him.

I've soloed first camp now and got a faded bead (not sure how lucky that is) but the unique was only 5 levels lower than me (39, me 44) :S

EDIT: I got another bead at second camp

Well uniques can drop from 1 to 4 faded beads (sometimes they don't drop any), so you just have normal luck :-)

if u go int bow u need cold imnbue because the freeze chance is almost like a stun when u use knock back arrow with it it has a high chance to freeze.

Yes, close range. So nukers, bowers, and crossbow will be ok. Sorry the tankers will die. I want to say his damage is absolute. My buddy was using firewall before the boss nuked him and he still died. Maybe i should test it out myself.

It wouldn't be a problem if you could just back off when he put his staff into the ground and dances, which he does before the nuke

Wish joymax would improve the ability to break out of a fight
