I am new to this game. I have started few days ago and my ID is same as this one and I am on Rome. So far this is how my character is built:

- Pure Strength
- Blade

I enjoy using swords and blades because it suits my rl. neway ... i was just wondering whether there is anything i can do to make it more powerful? because when i see other ppl from same lvl having more damage i envy them. Its just hard for me because i m not using any magics. -.-"

Is there anything i can do to make myself more powerful by putting any other kinds of magic?? OR shall i just stick with what i got?????

Another thing is that, with the blade thingy... is the SHIELD skill useful???

Thanks for your help.

Well..

one piece of adivce i can give you is....DO NOT TELL US YOUR DETAILS :x ...lol sorry but it will only help people hack your account ok.

and yes...if good to use skills (magics) press the "S" button while in
game and start to build up soem skills

FIRE=Offensive
ICE=Defensive
LIGHTING=Mixed/Speed

depending on what your after chose one of these...and its reconmended
that you do lv up your weapon and magic skill at the same time.

dont cry *pats back* Anyway welcome im pretty new
here too :) Enjoy your stay :D

Any way for pure str blade i would use fire/bicheon as a main and
lightning for speed and buffs. And no that sheild skill is completely useless
you block more, but you cant move so what good is that :P

Adding on what satman said, suggestions for each of those skills:

Fire:
fire force - This is used as your embue to make your attacks stronger, starts of lasting 4 sec's and then increaces a second per book.

Fire shield - This increaces the reduction you get against effect's like ice, fire etc it's best that you use jewery with it to example: Fire shield phoenix lvl 6 gives you *don't know not in game* 30% status reduction you have jewery that gives you 70% reduction on everything, if someone tries to freeze or frostbite you it won't work.

Flame body- This increaces your physicle attack to make your attacks on anything stronger for a certain period of time, the more you lvl it the more time you get, it only get's stronger each book, not each lvl you get it up with.

Fire protection- One of the greatest skills in fire tree it increaces your magicle defence, meaning magicle people like nukers or monsters will do less damage towards you.

Fire devil *don't know if that's the right name*- It's the very last fire skill it's what known as a passive skill, you can only lvl it up every 10 lvl's and it's a perment skill it's not a buff. This skill permently increaces your physicle attack by 1% each 10 lvl's.

Blade skills- I'm not a blady so I can't really give you a great strategy to lvl up which skills but I guess the skills, knock down and stab when you can get those, chain skills and the passive for that skill which perm increaces your block ratio by a certain % are important. Oh, I heard soul cut blade is good to get up to.

Lightning- I use lighting for several books

Speed peircing force - This increaces your magicle attack for a certain period of time, like flame body power it only has 3 books per lvl but unlike flame body it increaces the % of magicle damage per lvl. This is useful for increacing your embue damage making your attacks stronger.

Grass walk - this IS the best skill in lighting, and one of the most frequent skills I use almost all the time, it has 3 books to it.

Grass walk flow - This increaces your moving speed by a certain % for a certain amount of time, the more you lvl it the longer it lasts and the faster you get.

Grass walk Phantom = This is a lvl 32 lightning skill and it instantly takes you from one place to another however, it's movement restricted so the more you lvl it the further you can go with it.

Grass walk speed- It's the second book of grass walk flow, lasting longer making you faster.

Concentration- This is a parry ratio buff which helps you with doing more damage to the oponent *not sure about the whole parry thing*

Heavens force - This is the lightning passive it permently increaces your parry ratio, it's quite a useful skill.

Cold- This is a very helpful series, but I wouldn't choose the embue imo cause when everyones 5x-6x they have complete ice reduction and the embue is weaker then lightning and fire, so it's better to go with that rather then ice, but it's your choice.

Soft guard - This increaces your defence for a certain amount of time, the more you lvl it the more defence it increaces, it doesn't really give you a big boost till you get to the third book of it.

Frost nova- This series is great, especialy frost nova woods, frost nova woods is helpful when fighting several monsters at once or if your in trouble and your fighting more monsters then you can handle you can use it to escape, frost nova woods is a 43 skill but frost nova is a 23 skill. This series freezes and frostbites the oponent 50% frozen chance 100% frostbite chance.

Passive cold - Permently increaces your defence, like the soft guard series it's only good at the higher lvl's. It doesn't really increace alot till you get it to the 6th passive.

oh, and welcome to SRF ^^

You should still continue to lvl up the embue because it will give you more damage when your attacking things.

Your fire force, it's known as embue. The fire glowy thing you you said you have on your hand, lol.

Imbue, the Fire/Ice/lightning damage that you use when you attack another person.

ummm having just STR wont really help you in some major fights.

its best to have a skill as well to cause more damage and effects.


:D

@zrabbit: tyvm

well.. i have only Bicheon Mastery and Fire Mastery.


In Bicheon, I have:
- Strike and Smash
- Illusion Chain
- Soul Cut Blade

and in Fire Magic, I only have:
- River Fire Force

My question is that: Is it possible to master those 3 skills in Bicheon (including their updates) as well as River Fire Force (gosh its long to type -.-) in Fire Magic (including its updates as well)?

??

You should have enough to lvl up all skills in bicheon and fire all the way maxed out. But like achmalach said, if you use other skills you wont be able to. Heres an example....
By the time you are lvl 70 you will be able to have4 masteries lvled to 70 as well, like:

Fire/Lightning/Bicheon/and Ice or force if you want. With all the trees inside of those maxed out as well.

Well, these guides can explain alot better than I can:) . Oh and don't forget to check out the section on that post about SP Farming. Hope this helps.

hi there :) welcome to the forum. you should probably wait a bit before posting again if there are no replies. double-posting is generally considered to be bad forum etiquette :)

as for your questions, i would definitely spend tine raising your fire magic as high as it can go; it will add lots to your dmg, and the higher it is, the more it'll add.
