I might try Warlock some other time, first want to see how I can make the most out of my Wizard

I know there have been a lot of wizard topics lately, but I can't seem to decide what to pick. Right now I'm wizard, lvl 16, full INT, with only fire (at lvl 16). But i don't like the fact i can die in like 2-3 hits when facing same-lvl mobs. So I thought about it and have thought of 3 options: 1) w...

Str is the way to go as a healer, healing doesn't cost a lot of mana, so you are better off with more Hp so you can take a hit rather than dying. However, the use of a Healer is a bit arguable. In general, you use it to heal up yourself or a teammate. When you heal yourself, it´s only vs mobs, since...

They cost 1 mil at npc yes, but during the events (last christmas and thanksgiving) you could get them from turning in Jewel boxes. So suddenly there were a lot of black devil suits, special ID cards and red flags, ergo, prices dropped. You can get 440k gold at an NPC if you sell one to them, so pri...

I don't think it's really usefull if you look at the stat bonus, especially for males its quite expensive. However, If you can find a cheap one, you should buy it, since you can probably sell it again for same or more cash, and benefit from the bonus. But that only applies if you have enough cash, o...

i'm getting about 1% xp from a 1* jan-dw trade on lvl 2 trader (towards 3)
Not sure about the thieves, i think i have to kill 3-4 (around my lvl) to get +1%

dragon flag seems to be different for each server. On babel you can sell a female flag for around 3 mil i think. suits aren't worth stalling imo, 500k is probably best price you can get. But if you sell it to an NPC (a normal shop), you'll get 440k for it, which is better than waiting forever while ...

hmm, i think a wolf is better, provided you don't fight mobs that are orange/red (else it might costs you some pots for the wolf, let alone yourself). The dragon flag only adds 2 int and 2 str, something that can be easily achieved with some shopping around/being lucky on drops/alchemy. A wolf will ...

the old event (re?)started, had several people picking up boxes like with thanksgiving, same notice message when i logged in..

But just got DCed from Babel, and it's in 'Check' status now.. so probably they're fixing this error right away

if you go pure STR -> More hp -> harder to kill
if you go pure INT -> More damage

you can find plenty guides in the Guides-section

I've been told by guild mates it's not really worth trying to stall tables below lvl IV/V, since they aren't really high in demand..
wouldn't know the price of higher lvl tabs though, but the critical tablet is rarest i think.. or at least the most asked.

a small note on selling stuff: NPC traders only look at the type of weapon/equip you are selling and the level of it. They don't give extra cash for +1/+2/+3, blue extra's (+3 STR), and high critical and such. So if your weapons has (a lot) of good blue's or +'s, it's worth stalling them. Usually yo...

Thanks for the helpful replies. I heard before that Camel was better at my stage due to HP and such. But I guess if you all say I should use Horse than so be it. Well, a Camel does have.. about twice the HP of a horse i think? but with a horse you can avoid being 1* popped (more about that later). ...

There have been some discussions for horse <-> camel in other threads, but out of personal experience i have to say horse i better. I started trading at lvl 21, died twice, traded ~25, survived 50%, trading now at lvl 30, survive 90%. Reasons not to trade < 30: 1) you can't deal with the mobs around...

He's easy to kill when you got a bow, grasswalk helps as well.. just hit&run
bit cowardish perhaps, but you can take it down with some patience

how is this different from 1* popping?
1) you spawn higher level thieves around him
2) you pick on a low(er) level trader


it's different when he's not a 1* trader of course, else it's just one star popping, without even giving him a chance due to freezing him?

i supposed to be fixed on future patch called "job patch". if its true what i read about, thief will spawn hunters. npc thiefs will only attack the caravan that spawn them. it said that will be one of the changes among others. i saw a thread about the job patch but i cant find it edited: ...

Just picked up a spear, it's not really special, but it's crit his quite high.. usually i ask ~2x npc-value for 'normal' weapons.. but not sure how much extra this crit will give? http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c388/barkrukkie/spear14crit.jpg can i ask 250k for it? or is that not enough/too much/...

thanks for the views, can anyone (a thief perhaps?) explain this to me by actually replying?

Have been thinking a while about this now, and can't seem to understand the auto-spawn of thieves. So far i've done a few trades, think i got thief-popped 1/4 of the times (not counting first 2 runs on lvl 20, thought I would be safe in a big high lvl caravan ) Anyways, it's annoying as hell to have...

hmm, online atm, tried adding the names above but i get an error because no-one is online

oh well, will try again later

Hey, i'm a lvl 26 Bow user, did few trade runs so far, and would like to apply to your guild

i'll try to contact one of you in-game as soon as i've got the time tp play

Make sure you always have more inventory spots than boxes so you get the max amount owed to you. hmm, not sure if that's needed, i didn't have enough slots, it just said 'oh, you need to clean out your inventory so i can give you your rewards' (or at least something like that). Didn't lose any jewe...

babel went down too.. perhaps they decided the 3k gold reward for jewel boxes is too low

So far i've had: 4x 3000 gold 1 monster (party use) scroll 1 dodge scroll (+30%, 1h) 1 moving scroll (+50%, 1h) 1 HP scroll (+500, 30 minutes) been fighting chakji, devil bugs, ghost soldiers, earth ghosts/taoists.. Think you can get jewel boxes from all creatures too bad server (on babel at least) ...

if you really like bow then go bow. But stay pure STR. if you want to live longer pick blade or glavie which gives you either more defense and block from shield... or more life from glavie. each build has there benefits.. bow obviously has the worst benefits... but there are many Awesome bowman/gir...

Both a healer and archer does best as pure str. Dont take the self heal series any further, get the heal series instead as you can use this to heal your self and others. Dont get tempted into making a str hybrid for bow as they suck and for being a healer you will want to stay alive as long as poss...

Hi all! I recently started playing SRO, about 3 days ago i think, after reading several guides/tutorials. I always have played a melee fighter-type character in other games like Baldur's Gate, NWN, Morrowind etc, so I wanted to try a bow person. Hence, i picked a bow Next i thought being able to hea...
