Careful with euros when farming. Your armor's level-req takes a pretty big toll.

I party with a bard/cleric. She's pretty good at it, enough to keep our parties alive. And if my bard isn't around, or if there is another cleric and she doesn't feel like dying, she'll be bard and keep us all full, while I switch to wizard and maintain the damage over damage-taken. It's really impr...

1h is impressive. I especially like how they can knock monsters away (which even cancels out any unfinished attack. coolio). I have found keeping aggro a problem though, but the mini-warrior was not even 20 yet; i'm guessing vital increase-aggro would help out there. I think though, if you have more...

I prefer warriors that also have s/s. If they actually do things right, their wizards can AoE without fear, and the tank's mobs will evaporate. Poof :o

Gapping never hurts <3
Only thing, if anything, common parties will outlevel you.

Stay as a cleric. It's not like a monster will annihilate your pure-STR hit points if it catches you off-guard. No reason to change by now, really. <3

Sub?

lol. Do sub-warrior 1h and all the warrior buffs/taunts. That way if you -end up- being the tank, you're simply not another rogue without desperate/extreme.

Anyways, eventually everyone has to farm SP. This should be an option to consider.

People praise the Cleric sub as the best for PvP, since you can always powerlevel (and not need the Bard sub). It even allows you to tank, since towards high levels, people play less and less, so you usually do not even have a Warrior for mob control. [Well, it's more like everyone else will wait fo...

Natural effect. I think it only says so on the character creation screen, about harp giving more mana.

I imagine a bard shooting an arrow from each harp wire, like multiple bowstrings. Each cord could use a different power level.

>.> I enjoyed Shaolin Soccer more.

Deleveling and using cool skills

I'd imagine mana-consumption will be overkill x.x

I think any warrior, weapon excluded, can be a good tanker, as a bunch of the skills and buffs are usable by any weapon equipped. 'Annoying how some warriors do not use them! I mean, if the party is "good"/organized, the cleric will just be a bit more busy with healing 2h and Axes because ...

I forgot that. The normal attacks are very fast.

Rogues are cool because they don't need Noise (as much as Wizards do if either have to tank).

Wizards have cool AoE to smite several monsters at once. Mobbing monsters three or four levels below; it's like killing party monsters your level faster, as long as you keep moving.

I think you should avoid the bard attacks. Bards only have 1 damage-boosting skill, their weapon-passive. Wizards not only have that (for wtv element) but also Life Control and +1% damage per Mastery. Damage wins, hands down. Also, Bard's single-nuke and AoE are faster cooling (~1 sec less each), bu...

Hey look im a lightbulb!!!

That's a pretty darn thick pink. Can cut it with a knife.

What's his Power Level, Vegeta?

Body Blessing and Soul Blessing also have no "Whatever-Meter Radius" of effect. I assume that's why they remain; the person can go away as far as he wants and still have the buffs. Can't explain why it says Required Weapon atop though. As for Bards, everyone and their grandmas get only Noi...

Mana Wind heals three people, actually. Gives MP to your target, then it bounces towards two more party members. To describe Discord Wave more, it's the exact opposite of the Warrior's Taunt in effect and in function; you target the player, and all nearby mobs "decrease/lose/reset" any agg...

Should I de-level bard skills and get something else, in case I have to solo? I would also like to be good at PVP too, and so far my bard seems to do decent against other builds at my level. However, I think bards will do poorly against other builds in high levels. You're right about the PVP situat...

No harm I suppose, but I'd only give out my name if I was into writing my phone number on bathroom stalls. :O
It's cool finding people with whom to party and talk, though. sRO grinding gets so monotonous.


Li and Statham xD

After well over 2 years of playing, 3 different lvl caps, and having the character hacked and stripped twice, SG finally hit the lvl80 cap yesterday. m She is now farming on a 9 gap, has a brand new wolf (DotCom, lvl 30. tee hee hee ), and is having her entire skillset restructured. Expect an updat...

I hear it's in Sid's house (Sid, the evil kid next door), when Woody and Buzz are arguing on Sid's bed. Google's only found me two sites on it, it could be only rumor. In-game's Cappadocia kinda resembles these three, but it's only three ... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Capado...

This reminds me of those subliminal messages in all the Disney Movies, like the original cover of The Little Mermaid, and the marijuana-leaf wallpaper in Toy Story.

Everyone will end up doing something between 4~9 gapping if they want to max out masteries, be it Euro or Chinese. Some don't need as much if you want to be selective.

I guess dual axes can stand on their own ... faster style of attacking, a tad less effective. I'm under the impression though that having that shield is extremely good for party play; I guess it depends on the party. Take two of them o.o Either 2h or axe, and get shield. If you don't have many nuker...

When facing a party-giant, I feel safe and fluffy when there's a full cleric in my party. I think it's not so much that they're the best, but clerics are a virtual necessity. Makes 'em popular; people want them here.

I remember that on Ragnarok Online, requirements rise exponentially around lvl 96; getting from 98 to 99 is the same as getting from 1 to 96, or some jazz like that. Most "fresh, new characters" slow down in the 70s though; spawn maps are either too difficult or too meager. Transition peri...

Bards have the skill Discord Wave; that one reduces aggro like the warlock skill.
i.e. a Sungsung won't attack me with Noise. I hurt it; it attacks. I use Discord Wave on me; the sungsung stops.

Great work on the calculators!


Holy ... lv 28 Bard (random euro, i guess) to 80, about 320 kSP needed. 28 to lvl ninety: 450 k. To lv 100, almost 960 000 SP. XD that'll hurt.

Here's to getting to like ... lvl 45. Cheers

Funny how farming's about the same for either race if you try to max out your total masteries.
