Welcome to Gaia! ::

That sucks HARD! What happened?

And if you seen him around, invite him to Gaia. I bet anyone who knows Koy from RO will join me in vouching for his AG membership.

Two questions:
1) Why?
2) GMs can quit?

Too bad I'm not on the same server as you guys. gonk

>> But if anyone cares...

I have a level 72 Wiz, Atemu, and a level 97 Paladin Liralen. >> My other characters are still novices. razz ;; Too lazy to level 'em.

But Lemon is going to be a Gypsy, Goddess a Creator. razz I'm using a female character, but I am allowed to get on a friend's account to play with their male Assassin Cross. >>

I know how you feel. I play on Qro, and everyone else plays on Pro ;__;

This all started when everybody switched to Sakray a few months back. Think about it.

I got the fire katar in return for sex items, so now I really pwn gef 3. ninja

For knight, either 2 handed quicken or spear. Chose before you switch.

2 handed quicken skills - as a swordie, max everything you can except one handed mastery. As a knight, Max 2 handed quicken and bowling bash.

Spear - I wouldnt know cause I never made one.

If you're playing on a regular server I'd reccomend taking one of the sword masteries. It'll speed things up a LOT.

If you're gonna go Crusader, max Increase Hp Recovery, Sword Mastery (1 hand), and get bash to 5. Then get at least 5 in provoke so you can grab at least a level in endure (so you have the option of pecopeco riding later). I would reccomend taking at least a level of Magnum break since it adds the fire element to your sword for 10 seconds after you use it and this has helped me when mobbed by undead before.

Fortunately the three sader types are more or less built the same as swordies (skillwise), diverging only when they become saders. The main types of sader are:

Spear Sader: Less skills than a spear knight, but in addition to having spear mastery, they also have Spear Quicken. If you decide to use 2 handed spears then ignore the shield skills unless you plan on getting sacrifice... but the part of me that likes using the skills I buy says don't bother. If you are willing to restrict yourself to the leser powered one hand spears, then you can use them.

Shield Sader: Defense, Defense, Defense. You'll gain a better shield bash (40% stun and knockback), the ability to autoblock and reflect attacks, and the ability to throw your shield. A well build shield sader is one of the toughest things to kill in the game. Since they have most of the skills necessary, many shield saders add the sacrifice skill (when active you take the damage for your entire party when they get hit) since they're halfway there already.

GC sader: Unlike the other sader builds, this one trick pony (but what a trick it is!) has much less strength, sacrificing it all to have tons of intelligence and vitality. Your big gun is the Grand Cross spell. This crazy area attack does three rounds of holy damage based upon your int to everything near you. However, while casting it your defense rating drops 2/3 and at the end you take a portion of the damage from your own spell. Its a small price for breaking out the divine wrath... but nasty in the right hands.

Everything but the GC is all about lots of strength and vitality with a bit tossed to dexterity (so you consistently hit) and int (you are gonna need lots of sp for your abilities).

No matter what kind of sader you make, your most important item is your shield.
