Str Hesukul is the most fun to grind with for me. Warrior/Cleric is the most fun to party with for me. :)

I've never really played a warlock past 20, but the vids look fun. So I'd say warlock/cleric first, bard/cleric second ;) rogue is also fun, I like not having to move.

Don't ask me why, although the harp thing is kinda ghey, I really like the fast hits and speed and bless for giants - it goes well with the music I listen to. Techno FTW.

Heck, I was at royal soldiers last night, three shots and they're down. Two with trigger/devil spirit/wolf/int scroll. They walk slow, by the time they get to me they're dead.

For solo, warlock cleric.
For party, warrior cleric(with 1h or axes is even more fun).
Also, glaiver and blader. But soloing is not so much fun with those builds.

Warlock, Warrior, and Bards mains.

For Warlock, DOTs and debuffs makes it quite fun to grind.

Warrior, you dont get bored fast luring mobs and buffing

Bards, fast nukes and speed, and ton of buff, even more fun with sub cleric.

Bard : you're shiny, heal mp, buff, control aggro, and run fast.
Warrior : you have lots of hp and you don't really have to do any killing at all, just run around like crazy pulling and holding monsters.

I Had a Warlock level 70, i just about 5mins ago sold it cos i enjoyed it but it gets boring, i got a plvl to 68 and after about 2 weeks of playing it i didnt like, The Sp amount you need is a pain, And yeah its fun but it does suck too :D

I have a level 55 Bard/Cleric i play now, its very fun :D i got to level 52 myself too :D

and i have decided im buying a level 80 FF Bard/Cleric tonight,

So over all, in my opinion ide say bard/Cleric a char thats fun to play

There are two roles to a bard cleric;
"BattleBard" + "TheHeartOfTheParty" roles you can play :D

I'm surprised by the overwhelming majority of people that are saying warlock. Interesting.

I don't get why people love bard though. I was a pure bard up until like level 50ish. Was so boring. Not enough attacks. Sucked in pvp. And yeah. Although maybe if I was bard/cleric I would've liked it more . But whatever.

It's true, you don't get the third bard nuke until 60, and only later does it become really nice AOE with good range. And yeah you lose pvp about 70% of the time. But I really like the speed, and cleric sub makes all the difference. I have some buffs for phys/mag def too. I do miss being able to kill in CTF and pvp like a Chinese or a wiz or a rogue can.

It's a challenge to play though, and it is kinda fun to occasionally ks bots on singles. Fully buffed up last night I was ks'ing a level 90 wizard in Jangan Cave :P~

I think it depends on your outlook. Bard can be boring and repetitive, so can wiz imho, or rogue. Maybe because you need to spam 123123 in this game. I suppose maybe warlock is considered fun because of the many options you get, or how easy it can be to grind with. You always have a shield on.

Pure INT spear. Fast as bawls and you can either nuke for one shots or you can use heuksal. Nice mix to keep it interesting and giants drop like nobodys business.

For chinese characters:
- I will have to go with bladers if we're talking about the skills. However, in the long term I still prefer archers, really. Some people say they're boring, but they really have a lot of varieties. Not as much as bladers to, but at least they hit a bit more, hehe :)



For European characters:
- Warlock/bard is probably one of the coolest build if you plan on soloing, which you are probably gonna end up doing. I really like the "Dot and run" effect, it's so awesome!
- Warrior/cleric if in parties, I guess. Warlocks are nice in parties too, but nothing can compete with a dual axe warrior in a a party!
Dubious ・ Lvl 101 ・ STR Archer ・ jSRO-R ・ active
PillowFight ・ Lvl 69 ・ STR Archer ・ jSRO-R ・ inactive
Aggrobatic ・ Lvl 101 ・ Warrior / Cleric ・ jSRO-R ・ inactive

Well, i don't really like to solo much and i'd prefer a blader for that due to the cool moves. I had several Warlock/Clerics and most people, who say that they are a lot fun to solo, don't even have a clue, how boring it actually gets after a while, same with Bard/cleric. Maybe they are both simply not my cup of tea for soloing, as i prefer chinese builds for soloing, because european characters are actually supposed to be played in pts.

But in Pts Warlock/Cleric is definitely my favourite build so far, as it's very flexible and challenging. I didn't really try Warrior/cleric so far though and i might try that build on Zelos.

Spear nuker is a blast, they're definitely loads of fun. Though i do crack up about the people who try to come pvping at me with a bard, lol
As fun as they may be to level, they're not worth much else...

Btw, every build does get boring after a while.

the best to not get bored, is to have a good party with friends and good spawn rate or good lurer.

Its not really the build that makes grinding fun, its more people you grind with, music you listening to, ect :P

Because even the most fun build ever, will get boring at high levels if you don't bot, thats SRO.
