Silkroad Online Forums

Well, hello.

Please answer those questions, u help me alot then.

Some information about myself:

Im a 15 year young girl, i like online games. I just started to Silkroad Online. Cause a friend said it was fun . Im currently having good feelings about it cause i logged in 2 min, he said that that was the worst thing from the game. Oh yeah im living in the Netherlands and i like music

Well about Silkroad,

I looked over some guides and thought that the thing i gonna be is a bowmen/archer. I am in the server ''Persia'' and currently im doing the Chinese tutorial. My name is Lacoste__ cause thats my favorite parfum. The questions i got for you are:

- Is it right that i just gotta do quests so i level up fast?

- Is a archer good for the ''Trader'' job?

- How much is a level 16 Sos bow so i can farm?

- Where can i get fast money? without begging/dancing

- Can i add some of u so u can give me some tips ingame? (No thiefs )

Ok thx for that,

Xxx

Is it right that i just gotta do quests so i level up fast? They help a lot but if u keep a 0 gap then u lvl pretty fast (im done all quests so far im lvl 24)

- Is a archer good for the ''Trader'' job? Im not sure...i never used a archer before...(im a full int spear user)

- How much is a level 16 Sos bow so i can farm? At least a couple mill the really goods ones r very very expensive...(i cant even afford one if i wanted one)

- Where can i get fast money? without begging/dancing Just kill things and pick everything up....doing quests u get some money....use alchemy to get elements and then sell them u can get money.....trade runs once ur 20 make money

- Can i add some of u so u can give me some tips ingame? (No thiefs ) could have added me if i was on Persia but im on Troy (sry)

i think archer is best with thiefs

Thx both i quess, which skills should i chose?

it all depends on what you want to be when you're at a higher level
since you like using bow (mee too ^^) you'd want to get pacheon
the skill fire is a must for all bowman so get taht too =]
the others you can decide but but fire and pacheon is the two skills you must have. =]

But in that guide stands that ice or fire doesn't matter really, if you want to go player vs monsters than is ice better right?

Well i dont go player killing cause i hate that (always die )

Fire is better(More dmg +good buffs)
Ice slows people down before they get to you..... If you want to do Trade runs, Use Pacheon/Fire/Lightning......Pacheon for bow skills, Fire for imbue(good dmg) and awsome +physical buffs/fire shield, Lightning for speed increase, +mag dmg buff, parry ratio increase.

Hmm, well since you're new and iuno if you know this but..
fire does the most damage + chance of burn
light does second most + chance of paralyze and does damage to monsters around it
light does the least most damage + chance of frost bite and slowing em' down
so i'd suggest you'd want pacheon and and fire for sure and the others you can pick whatever you want =]
person i like ice too ^^ when fighting like..
a giant tiger i usually do combos like first these are the hot keys i have:
1. ice imblue
2. anti-devil arrow
3. 2 hit combo
4. fire imblue
so first i always use the anti-devil bow to do an opening shot then the ice imblue to slow then the two hit combo and once the ice imblue time runs out i switch to the fire imblue and keep doing the anti devil arrow and the two hit combos'
so hopefuly the combo freezes the tiger and burns him at the same time ^^

If i get on later i'll add you i'm in persia too =]

Thanks for the help,

So i my long term goals (see you over 10 year )

- 80 Pacheon
- 80 Fire

And then my Lighting up for the grasswalk series and the magical thingie right?

What should i do with the other 60/90? (Dunno what level lightning is max for grasswalk)


Xxx

Well, you should go for:
80 pacheon, 80 fire, 69 lightning.

however, if you would like to play further unto the 90 cap, with the new skills, consider the 90 pach, 90 fire, 90 light build.

What can i do with 90 Light, and i heard from a skill that there comes more hp with u 1 of the mastry. Is it smart to train that to?

The heuskal passive adds HP....but with being a archer ur probably full str or mostly str so i dont think u would need to add that passive

K thx, yes i gonna train STR only. Im now level 8, with 20k cash .

So i get:

- 90 Fire
- 90 Pacheon
- 90 Lightning

Then i got 30 left, what should i do with it?

Oh and can some trader/hunter add me? For the trades when im 20. I'd like some hints

If i were you i wouldn't do any jobs yet until you're level 30 something.
If you're at level 20 you'll be at the absolute lowest level to do the jobs while everyone might be 3x or 4x.
so wait until you're in the mid 30's

and.. =O!!
I had my skill caps the same as you but i'm using the last 30 into ice. =]
if 100 cap every ones (not in a billion years) just delevel it =]

ooh yeah add me i play on persia too
My name is _heartbreak_

Talk to me when ur online, i tried few times now :p. But i keep trieing

Oh and another questions for you guys/girls

Should i farm or not?

If you want to be really strong at later levels, do it, but you will be very bored during the month or months it takes you to farm.
This is your first char isn't? I'd say, enjoy this char, go with 2-3 gap so you have enough sp for 2-3 masteries, when you are more experienced with good items and more money so you can buy farm equipment, you can try farming at lvl 16, or go for farming at lvl 52.
I have a char or two at Persia but i got sick of the huge amount of botters so i'm playing on cSRO, and trying to find a way to play at kSRO, just to take a look at Euro before it comes to cSRO.
Anyway i would have helped you, maybe if i play iSRO someday i talk to you hehe until then, have fun and see you later.

Thx, i think i just farm with a 9 gap on 16 for a little week then keep a 3 gap, so i have some extra´s sp and when im running low i make the gap bigger

Thx, and i hope i talk to u then

xXx

Well most of them forgot to mention one thing ...
U wuld lvl up slow

Have fun as a archer

Thx, im now level 18!

Well another question,

If i have 90 Pacheon and fire, and 60 Light + Cold

Is that a good option to? I like cold a lot as attack, but people say i need fire -.-?

Im now level 13 Cold, 18 Lightning, 18 Fire, and force 8. I get it down when im 20. Pacheon 18.

One thing about being an archer is that u have to carry like ALOT of arrows with you that take up a lot of slots i wouldnt like that personally

ping me ingame its ivicschild. i could hook u yup with a guild as well. lets do trade runs as soon as u get to lvl 20 (1* though) just for the experience. im pure int but using bow atm (lvl 23), need to farm me some sp before getting the nukes.

y?
when i got to 20 i did trade runs and i was fine....thats how i made all my money so far lol....it is easy unless u fine some stupid mean thief who wants to one star pop u....but with u being a chick that would be even more cruel for someone to one star pop you....
Im a lvl 2 trader and im half way to lvl 3 and i only been one star popped once....
i suggest trying it a few times at lvl 20

Bow is very good against Thiefs in a trade run, since you don't need to go back too much to kill them, saving time, etc...
About Light mastery...
If youre going STR based wear Garments (+20% speed) and up the first book of Grasswalk(another 20% boost), if armor then rise Light a bit more, it causes a huge difference on Lvling...

Nice username. I like to wear Lacoste polo's and their perfume lol (random)

This, i think should be your build:
http://bobtheveg.dyndns.org/SRO/Char_Build_Applet/?profile=23880
I clicked cold mastery one more time than needed so you have 301/300 masteries but don't pay attention, im too lazy to do it again xD
Now, get every skills in there but do not give priority to Must Piercing, it's a Mag attack buff, you don't really need it, the dmg difference will be little. Get it, but only when you feel you have SP to spare. And many archers take Firewall, i don't like it but i'd say, if you want it, get it, but again, do not give priority to it.

And i made a bit of changes to your current one:
http://bobtheveg.dyndns.org/SRO/Char_Build_Applet/?profile=23882

Autumn flame arrow might be useless... later. I'd suggest you to get first book and level it, but once you get Berserker arrow, get rid of it. It's attack power is almost the same as Anti Devil and it's a really great help if AD is hasn't cooldown, i always use AD+AF+2 arrow combo in PvE.
