Bleh, never played a blader.
Got a 12X mFS and a 13X wiz (who's half naked, but I'm working on that issue).

And I tried starting an FA but cba skilling a 3rd char thus it's stuck on lvl 56 with master - exp ranks (rough guess).

@inky
It depends on the amount of mobs you hit and the amount of skill exp they give thee.
When I skilled my FS I could get back my SP in around 7 hits with +40 skill exp from my adept set, diamond prem (+50% skill exp) and a 50% skill exp bead.
Without the bead I needed more hits.

Level 28 so far, easy as hell to level up with all the AoE skills.

As stated before whats with everyone carrying a staff? I don't see it in the itemmall....

It's a wizards astral weapon ... Like Force Archers get a bow .. and Force Shielders get a shield. Since recently wizards now have a nifty staff.

May I ask what an astral weapon is?

a weapon generated from an astral crystal. idk about the staff but u wear the crystal on ur hand.

Astral weapon is something that you recieve at lvl 1. Only Force Archers / Shielders and Wizards can get them ... MAYBE in the future Force Bladers but doubt it.

It's like a visable 'BUFF' that add's .. Either Defense / Magic or .. Crit I guess .. forgot what Archer one gave.

Oh ok thanks guys.

I must say it a pansy looking staff though....

Why not be able to choose if you want it or not?

Make it so it doesnt give uoi any bonuses.

First people were nagging that they wanted a staff and now they are nagging they don't want the staff.
It's quite confusing what people want.


BTW I just revived my FB from OB. Dire boar king for skilling is yay.

Well guys...I installed Cabal EU again, though I found out two main things:

- prices are going crazy on both sides. I mean.. an EoF+6 is worth 1.5kk~2.5kk now when 3 months ago it was 5kk~10kk. Armours, instead didn't drop their prices. Plus I can't find anything good for a Wa

- all my mates gave up playing, as I did in these few months. I also thought that my GM had banned me from the guild, but he didn't. Despite this, the guild is pretty dead. I've seen only 3 members out of 60+ online today.

So I'm thinking on starting over again on Mars.

Now, the main purpose of this post: help me to choose a build =]

- avoid Wa ( got a lvl107 one ), FA ( got a lvl 114 one and I don't like its skills ) and WI ( I just don't like the char itself )
- I like BL and FB. A friend of mine was a lvl 119 BL and I played his char a few times, so FB would be my first choice.
- I've never done a FS ( neither mFS, which I would like to try , nor a sFS )

so the only ones left would be:

FB, sFS, mFs What's the easisest to level and farm among these three ?

Got 2 of my friends to start playing but we rarely see eachother in game, kinda bores you out when everyone pretty much has their own quests.

And Wow! WI are fricking boring as hell to play!

Nah, the WI is just lvl 18, and i doubt my friends will play long enough to get to 50.

Whats BM2?

AT 50 you get your bm2. It's comparable to a limit break from Final Fanatasy .. or 'Berserk' in Silkroad.

Except here, each class gets a specific skill / look and all their stats go up.

FA - Get 2 Astral Guns and can hit 2 enemy's at the same time. Also are able to use a sharpshooting skill but it sucks.

WI - Your orbs become astral orbs and you are able to cast 2 skills at the same time. With a finisher where you do a massive spray of elements.

BL - Your weapons become astral claws and you are able to melee at an incredibly fast speed. Your special attack is a jump skill that if crits can 1 hit kill 'MOST' people.

WA - Their great sword becomes a scythe and they are able to swipe their opponents. Their special move is to throw their scythe with massive AoE.

FS - Their shield becomes a massive glowing astral shield. Same attacks as a warrior's but it's a tad bit slower. Special attack is to knockdown everything around you with lowish dmg.

FB - Their blade becomes a silly canon .. don't even really need to type about FB BM2 seeing as it's useless .. FB BM1 is so much better.

FB, mFS or sFS.

FB:
Nice damage, but crap def and meh HP for a sword class. When killing a boss, be prepared to dash out first compared to other melee classes when wearing comparable gear.
And can't be buffed during BM1 which is pity because in a dungeon run that means no SP while in BM.

mFS: A wiz on steroids. Lower base damage but higher crit rate/dam and more HP and def. You'll sacrifice your big AoE skills and a godly BM and trade it for more survivability while retaining a great DPS.

sFS: The ultimate tanker who can't hold agro. Easier to exp with due to better AoE than a mFS but the DPS will be lower. Prepare to be outdamaged by all other melee classes.
Korean Cabal currently tests a FS skill that increases agro temporarily thus tanking would be your job.



Both sFS and FB need to think about their char and spend time in order to get their funds up. If and fb can survive it'll exp faster than the sFS thus get yourself some vampgear and use a stuncombo and you're set to go.

Ok, thank you guys.
I think I'm gonna do a FS and then I will decide for mFS or for sFS. That's just cuz I don't like having low defense with no autopot =( I pretty liked my Wa because of its good defense. I'll create my new char as soon as I can because I'm pretty busy this afternoon and I'll try to pm you in game. Nicks ?

How long does it take for that event pig to respawn?

hmm which client are u playing on Olen? NA or EU?

He's on EU as it should be.

Only downside is that there are quite a few poeple that cant speak english.

I wonder why shops are in GD instead of DS =O That's pretty new to me.

Btw.. I know that might be extremly expensive, but I was thinking about a thing.. can a FS be at the same time mFS and sFS with all the skills and 2 amp ( 1 sword and 1 magic ) sets ? Or it can't cuz of the stat points ?

I was a quite strong mFS quite a while back. . top 3 of my server at the time on my (GA) account. And a guild member .. who is now or was a (GA) was the BEST sFS on the server. We both tried going dex and combining magic with sword skills.

It's sort ok .. but you rely on crits more so than on a sFS. If you manage to crit 3-4 skills in a pvp you won. .. but chances of that .. bah.

Osmium still tends to be better most of the time if you exclude weapons.
Osmium gears tends to do more damage than mithril.
Mith only yields def which is overrated.
