The ultimate pure spears spearman guide![]() Why being a pure? Well, the main reason to be pure spear is Buster aka Spear Crusher. Think about it. When you are fighting bosses like Pianus or HH, are you going to be using Dragon Fury on it? Of course not. You'd do about 6k damage as opposed to about 16-20k damage per hit with buster. It costs some mobbing ability but at later levels especially at 120+ its a way faster killing than dragon fury. Spearman pros and cons Pros: * The largest range of attack * Stabs do like +130% dmg * Buster is fucking awesome * Wanted for parties from 2nd job because of will and hb * 4TH JOB DARK KNIGHTS HAVE BERSERK WHICH IS 2X MORE DAMAGE IF YOUR HP IS UNDER 40% Cons: * Very unstable dmg range on 1st and 2nd job * Slashes do like -130% dmg and they're more common than stabs(until 3rd job) * Slowest attacks (depepnds on your weapon) * Must have a priest at 3rd job, or at least a pet with auto hp and a lot of hp pots f3 * Berserk need to be maxed to be used well, which can be hard since 20 avaliable only from Zakum and 30 from Horntail or 40000 BPQ points. Also it takes time and experience to learn how to use it effectively and enough NX to wash HP to increase survivability while using berserk. Stat distribution Basically their dmg rely on str as like as another warrior types, but they need some dex for accuarcy. My recommendation is to cap your dex to like 80 asap and then use some dex/acc scrolls at your equips to raise your acc to like 130. it should be enough till lvl 200. If something happened and your base dex is over 80 and acc is over 150 like me you will need to buy some ap resets and put them on str or hp. Lowdex need to base all their gear on dex and acc, and dexless ones need to base their gear on str and acc (NOT dex!) Level up and skill points 1st, 2nd and 3rd job progrss tested on my char. 4th is quite complicated because you have to acquire some skillbooks and all of the shit. Skill Glossary: ps - Power strike sb - Slash blast will - Iron will hb - Hyper body Booster - Spear booster FA - Final Attack-Spear Buster - Spear Crusher Roar - Dragon roar db - Dragon blood fury - Dragon Fury-Spear zerk - Berserk mw - Maple Warrior stance - Power stance aura - Aura of the Beholder hex - Hex of the Beholder Beginner ![]() You just do the beginner quests. do the training camp quests, then do the quest "help hunt the snails" at Snail hunting ground I, and then continue through Maria, Lucas and Mai training quests to get a free boat ride to vic island. its REALLY important to do the chair quest. it will be good to do the quiz by Rain of amherst. Don't do anything else and don't kill what you don't need to kill (unless you want to exit maple island at lvl 11+...) At lvl 9-10, exit maple island and take Olaf's quiz. then go to Dances with balrogs at perion and BECOME A WARRIOR FIRST, and then complete Olaf quest. (thats an immediate lvl 11 at most cases) Skill build: Nothing important, but three snails if completely useless for warriors so the best thing to do is to max Recovery and Nimble feet. Remember that begginers need at least 35 str at lvl 10 to become a warrior. 1st job ![]() *THE MOST IMPORTANT THING: QUESTS ARE ALWAYS GOOD EXP (and mesos/items as well). YOU SHOULD DO ALL THEM (depends on your lvl)* Here the training goes serious. First (lvls 11 to like 13 or 14) do the job quests. thats the fastest lvling. At lvl 15 go to the Octopuses hidden street at kerning and grind here till lvl 20. At lvl 20 go to Ant tunnel IV, because it has the best spawn among the 4 first dungeon maps. At lvl 25 you can go to Land of wild boar II, they're very good exp and you have a good chance to find a Maple impaler (lvl 43 spear) and other Maple equips. Another alternative is here. Levels 10+ can HPQ for faster experience. Don't forget that from lvl 21 and if you find at least another 2 guys you can do KPQ. (though lvl 21-25 can't handle very well against the monsters) Skill build: lvl 10 - hp recovery +1 lvl 11 - hp recovery +1, power strike 1, slash blast +1 lvl 12 - hp recovery +3 lvl 13 - maxhp increase +3 lvl 14 - maxhp increase +3 lvl 15 - maxhp increase +3 lvl 16 - maxhp increase +1, the rest to endure lvl 17 - endure +1, iron body +1 (if u really want...), ps +1 then: Max Power strike Max slash blast the rest put to hp recovery if u have spare points at lvl 30. 2nd job ![]() Lvl 30: gratz! now its time to advance to a stronger kind of warrior. First go to Dances with balrogs at perion ant talk with him. He will send you to the Warrior job instructor located here. Talk with the instructor, nd he will send you to a map filled with some fire boars and lupins and you must hunt for 30 Dark marbles from them. After you finished talk with the instructor to get out and head back to Dances with balrogs. he will ask you what you want to be. Choose Spearman, and congratz! you are a spearman! ![]() Now work hard and go pro.... At lvl 30 go to evil eyes (either here or here have the best spawn) and grind there till 35. Thats in my opinion way better than teddies cause they're slower and a slow attacking weapon like spears handles better than in teddies. At lvl 35 do to here and grind there to 40. (Iron boars doesn't appear there at all at this version) At lvl 40 you either go to the zlupins map or to the STDs map, and grind there till 50. because warriors sucks with accuarcy my recommendation is to zlup till 43 (if u have a Maple spear) or 45 and STD till 50. At lvl 50 go to there till lvl 58. From lvl 58 to 70 you can either go here or here. Don't forget to do quests, some of them gives some good scrolls and items! Lvls 35-50 have LPQ Or Ellinia PQ which is the fastest way to lvl there. Lvls 51+ have OPQ, or LMPQ but its recommended only till 60 cause its way slower from on. Lvls 55+ have PPQ which is a chance to get the lord pirate hat. Skill build: Max Spear Mastery first to get some range and acc. Then put like 3 on will and then max hb. its awesome cause it raises your maxhp and mp to like +60% at max lvl so you'll get to Faust pq faster Max Booster, or if u got some fast spear so max Final Attack to get some bonus dmg. Max FA (or booster if u maxed FA first) Max will - it gives you and your party like +20 def and magic def at max for a long time. same def bonus as the cleric's Bless. The rest put to hp recovery from the 1st job or endure. (Yeah, no attacking skill at 2nd job, so prepare to ps and sb your foes all way to 70. kinda boring if you ask me f3) 3rd job ![]() Now the real fun starts ![]() Go to El Nath - Chief Residence and speak to Tylus. After talking to Tylus, head back to Victoria Island and talk to "Dances with Balrog" which is located in Perion. Next, find the Door of Dimension located at Ant Tunnel Park and it'll bring you to "The Path of the Glittering Crystal". Walk until the end of the path and enter the portal to defeat the TWO wiseman's dark sides to obtain the Black Charm. Return to "Dances with Balrog" and exchange the Black Charm for a Necklace of Strength. Return to El Nath after that and give the item to Tylus. Now DON'T head on to the Holy Ground at the Snowfield (Sharp Cliff II) to do the quiz, but just wait a couple of secs and talk to Tylus again. Congratz! you're a DRAGON KNIGHT! Training guide: Lvls 70-80: same as lvls 58-70 training guide.At level 75 ask for someone to leech you at Wolf Spiders... however if you're good at jumping you can go there at level 70 and kick some windraider ass. Lvls 80-90: Wolf spiders, Gobies, Ghost Pirates (chance to get the desired level 80 overall) or birks if your lvl is 85+ (Birks have worse mobs but you can get lvl 80 and 100 spears) Lvl 90-100: Squids or Vikings. Lvls 100-108 or 106: Himes, Grims(for those who don't want to mess with 8k dmg bosses....) Lvls 108+: Skeles skill build: lvl 70-80: Max Buster lvl 80-90: Max Roar lvl 90-105 I think: Put 1 point at fury an then Max db and max ele resistance lvl 105-115: Max Sacrifice The rest: Put 1 point at power crash cause its not working here and the rest put at fury. 4th job ![]() You have to hunt Heroic Star and Pentagon from manon and grieffy and give these items to Harmonia which is here. if she isn't advancing you to 4th job, talk to a gm to do that four you. Remember to Skills guide: At lvl 120 u get another 3 sp when you finish your 4th job quest and become a Dark Knight. Put one at Rush and put either 1 zerk and 1 stance, or 2 zerk. From on - it depends on your max skill level (changed by mastery books), but anyways, max zerk, then at least 10 at mw, max stance, max beholder, max Achilles, max aura, max hex, max mw if you finally beated Horntail and get the skillbook, max magnet. The rest till lvl 200 I guess you put at your lacking "useful" skills: fury (3rd job), hp recovery and endure (1st job). Irrelevant. Since 4th job skills can be obtained only from quests and/or monsters, the SP distribution depends more on you. However I recommend putting at least 1 SP at Rush as soon as possible, and max Beholder first to gain more min dmg. The rest depends on you. Training guide for 120+ Funded (or at least managed to get Berserk to level 30 early) Level 120-130: Skeles, Crimson Guardians (better do Alcaster quests first to have an option to buy All cures since CGs casts Seal) Level 130-145: Bigfoot Level 145-200: ZAKUM ARMS - better with a partner. (with same recommendation as Crimson guardians since Arms casts Seal, Darkness and Weakness) Normal(maxed Beholder first) Level 120-200: Skeles, Crimson Guardians As soon as you get Berserk, bossing should be more effective way to train for you.
