Silkroad Online Forums

Welcome to Characters & Skills!

The purpose of this section is to discuss different build ideas, concepts or ask for advice regarding Characters (&Skills) of SRO. The moderator of this section is Stress.
You can feel free to ask questions, as long as they have a more general meaning. Specific questions belong to the "Questions & Answers" forum.

The SRF Moderator team strives to make the forums a better place. This is massive work, and engulfs, of course, many aspects. The matter I'd like to adress in this post is the following:

What do you think should be done to make Characters&Skills more organized and more useful to you? Do you find it easy to find the information you're looking for (guides or different discussions)?

Speak your mind either here in the thread, or by PM to me, if you don't feel like posting in public. I'm eager to hear your thoughts and ideas: let's work together to make this a better place!

Thank you,
Stress

is it possible to lock all the "rogue subclass" threads? someone people seem too dense to understand unless theres someone with authority knocking on their head.

They will be locked, with a link to the XemnasXD topic.

cool

is this thread about main/and subs

i seen a rouge/warlock she use freken curses and crits my ass to death but she slow u can still attack if u use like crossbow so that build good too

ok so I think I 'started' to make a huge mistake, ima hybrid to start with, mostly int. my masteries were ice 84 spear 80 and light 80 fire 24, with ice as my imbume, I got kinda tired of dealing low dmg becuase of my imbume, and I really did not want light as imbume, so I started to d lvl light to get fire nukes + imbume currently its at 75.

my reason behind getting fire and d-lvl light where as follows:

I figured im a hybrid so I still deal decent phy dmg so the phy dmg passive and buff would be a + for me when dealing dmg with spear attacks (especially if I had a glaive which I was kinda planing on buying, to use only when dealing spear attacks).

also the imbume would be much better at dealing damage then ice or light, and I would also get really nice fire nukes to replace the light nukes. ( sorry I forgot to mention im a spear int hybrid )

so my plan was:

~~~ fire 90 spear 90 ice 73 and light 47. (73 because of the mana shield 44% instead of the usual 40% @ lvl 60 and that way I can have light a bit higher)

~~~ or 90 fire 90 spear 80 ice and light 30 (mana would still stay at 44%)

~~~ or what about this one (kinda sounds suicidal, but meh w.e)
90light 90spear 90 fire ice 30

but like I said I feel as though ive made a big mistake, not just that but i miss my lion shouts very much =[.

and so before I keep lvling up fire or delvling anything else, I needed some more imput from fellow SRO players. what you guys/glas think of the 3 builds I just mentioned.

and also I had some questions ( lets just say im wearing pretty much all npc gear and spear)

-loosing speed piercing force and light nuke worth getting fire imbume and nukes? (in regards to the first build I mentioned)
-would my phy dmg really make that much a difference with the phy dmg buff and passive? as in would it be worth it?(also regarding the first build mentioned)

- and is the last build mentioned just way too suicidal? or is it just me? I mean the passive for spear and light would sorta make up for almost no phy deffense?

I am really going nuts trying to decide folks, any advice or thought would help me decide.

thank you in advance

dude your a hiybrid in my opinion id get rid of ice alltogther thats for nukers realy, a hiybrid will do perfectly well with light and fire.

A way to make Characters and Skills better is to make me a mod.....no really

I am building a pure strength Wizard and would like to know what are the best skills I need to build my character.

FemmeFatale

i made a wizard and still only lvl 18 2-4 months becuase i dont get on much

sometimes i find it hard to find topics for certain builds
maybe if in this section there was a folder-like system like this...

Chinese folder that then opened to:
Glavie
Spear
Blade
Sword
Bow

and also

European:
Warrior
Rogue
Wizard
Warlock
Bard
Cleric

and like a general character folder for stuff that isnt race specific
that way it would be easier to find less populated build's information... like bards

and also if people saw how certain builds dont have many guides it might promote more people to make some

PM me if u dont get what i mean
thankss

Just made a wiz. made it 35 in 1 week

I believe Character and Skill should have a tag to find a specific build or skill. Often Search function on this forum returns too many irrelevant results. For example, I am looking for a hybrid INT build, which weapon and elements should I take? With search function customized and refined sub-search, the thread should like this,
* "What mastery should I take for 10:1 hybrid?" [HYBRID][INT] or,
* "What level of mastery for 100 cap?" [HEUKSAL][LIGHT][ICE].

The format is simple:
"thread topic" [-skills][-class]

Why should this character and skills better? User can find the top that one is looking for and not posting the same thread over and over, but I won't argue that some users love the thread count and the attention.

That's all I have.

Make Stealth , Invisable, skills like Devil spirit, Cost silk, Then Joymax will actually care and fix them, From Pk2 Hak edit

haha i think that would be a good idea he helps out alot

Considering how long it's been since most of the guides were updated, perhaps there are a few active players left who wouldn't mind rewriting/updating the current guides or write new ones? The same could probably go for a lot of the other guides here too; a lot of the information is no longer (completely) valid.

True, some of these guides no longer work, least of all the job guides.

Maybe assign someone that is willing to add the guides to the "sub-forums guides section".
