Since I'm only 2 job levels away from changing to GX, I thought it's high time to make preparations. The thing is, I'm not really good at making builds and choosing equipment, so I'd like to ask some questions. My current stats are like this:


Currently:

1) LV: 99/68
2) Stats:

STR: 98 +11
AGI: 90 +17
VIT: 10 +2
INT: 1
DEX: 25 +9
LUK: 30 +10

8 points left

3) Equipment:

Helm: Morrigane's Helm
Middle: N/A
Lower: N/A
Armor: Hard Thief Clothes (Pupa)
Weapon: +7 Triple Critical Jur (Soldier Skeleton)
Garment: Quick Manteau (Condor)
Boots: Green Boots (Matyr)
Acc 1: Morrigane's Pendant
Acc 2: Morrigane's Belt

4) Skills:

Katar Mastery MAX
Sonic Blow MAX
Grimtooth MAX
Cloaking MAX
Advanced Katar Mastery MAX
Enchant Poison MAX
Create deadly Poison MAX
Enchant Deadly Poison MAX

9 points left


Now for some Q's:

a ) How should I distribute my stats from now on?
b ) Where should I put the unused skill points? Poison react sucks, and since I'm katar Sin I don't really need L/R hand masteries, but maybe they'll be needed later...
c ) I chose those skills for GX. Are they ok?

Cross Impact 5
Cloaking Exceed 5
Rolling Cutter 5
Cross Ripper Slasher 5

Considering:
Create New Poison 1
Antidote 1
Poisoning Weapon 5
Dark Illusion 5
Weapon Blocking 5
Counter Slash 5
Phantom Menace 1

i consider that the new poisons are a must for every GX out there and some new skills need L/R hand mastery, that is all i cant tell you couse i dontknow oo much about crit Gx

[altandf4]

Rolling cutter?? why??
you could spend those points to Venom Impress Max and Create new poisons lvl 4-5
With Venom Impress you could kill an MVP easily with crit

Hmmm... So in your opinion what would be a good skill build then? Like this?

Venom Impress 5
Research New Poison 10
Antidote 1
Poisoning Weapon 5
Venom Pressure 5
Cloaking Exceed 5 - one site shows this skill, iro wiki doesn't... whch one is right X|
Cross Impact 5
Phantom Menace 1
-------------------
32 points used/17 left

Venom Pressure is something you want to have add last once you have level 1.
New poisons stops at lvl 9, at level 10 it only increase success rate of making them...

You can try out skill simulators http://web.hc.keio.a...skill4/glx.html
And better skill description are here: http://ro.doddlercon...uillotine_Cross

Right now you seem to get more like this?

My preparation to GX is more like http://web.hc.keio.a...GSrArBqB1rFeKwY
70 str 70 dex rest to agi... @ level 99


we certainly not the best in the world...

[Musu]

Venom Impress 5
Research New Poison 9
Create New Poison 1
Antidote 1
Poisoning Weapon 5
Venom Pressure 5
Cloaking Exceed 5
Cross Impact 5
Phantom Menace 1
Rolling Cutter 5 ( unless you like not having a decent mob control skill that isn't grimmtooth )

[sqvirel]

Ok, I am a GX now.... Now the only thing I have to think about is how to distribute the stats. My idea for now is:

STR: 100
AGI: 120
VIT: 50
INT: 1
DEX: 50
LUK: 50

Venom Impress 5
Cloaking Exceed 5
Cross Impact 5
Dark Illusion 2
Antidote 1
New Poison Research 10 < having more chance of creating a poison won't hurt
New Poison Creation 1
Poisoning Weapon 5
Venom Pressure 5
Weapon Blocking 5
Counter Slash 5

[altandf4]

Venom Impress 5
Research New Poison 9
Create New Poison 1
Antidote 1
Poisoning Weapon 5
Venom Pressure 5
Cloaking Exceed 5
Cross Impact 5
Phantom Menace 1
Rolling Cutter 5 ( unless you like not having a decent mob control skill that isn't grimmtooth )

MA and counter slash are also good alternatives. rolling cutter is katar only. CS are best for both katar and duals, it is also a better mobbing tool
Grimtooth still work well if you have the dodge


@sqvirel
I don't thin 120 will do any good, 115 base and the rest to more dex will be better. After 115 points is really really expensive

Well, my math sucks, but from the calculations I've made it looks like this:

From lv 99 to 149 we get 1375 status points.
Stat point cost for each ten is:
1-11 = 20
12-21 = 30
22-31 = 40
32-41 = 50
42-51 = 60
52-61 = 70
62-71 = 80
72-81 = 90
82-91 = 100
92-99 = 110
100-104 = 80
105-109 = 100
110-114 = 120
115-119 = 140

STR: 98 > 100 = 27 pts
AGI: 90 > 120 = 560 pts
VIT: 10 > 50 = 176 pts
INT: 1 > 1 = 0 pts
DEX: 25 > 50 = 124 pts
LUK: 30 > 50 = 108 pts
======================
995 pts

1375 - 995 = 380 pts left

Hmmm.... Now which stat should I increase more...?

(This is just a rough estimate. Please pardon me any mistakes.)

[Musu]

you should cut the agi to 115 and raise your dex to whatever ( I hope 70 )

[sqvirel]

Why cut the AGI? I don't mind those points above 115... Besides I do want at least one stat maxed out.

I think that I'll finally go with these stats:

STR: 100
AGI: 120
VIT: 50
INT: 1
DEX: 70
LUK: 70
Any leftover points into int maybe (there won't be much of them anyway)

I would cut down to 115 AGIand rise extra 10 VIT

[Hiban]

cut down agi. you don't need that much. It is very expensive after 115.

[Suzz]

is it must for GX to take 115+ agi? bcoz i m right now experimenting with other stats ...

No unless, depend on your build. 100,105,110,115 is just solid stat before the next spending stat point rise; mean while you limit it at these numbers and spend on other stats.
70 dex is a must, unless you 100% crit
I told you on other posts XD

The stats and equips works (There is some bug with dual weapons), but the damage calculator might be a little off. Plus 3rd job skill sim is not actually implemented, so try guess your damage with SB lol
