Hey, Mad. Aki here. XD 

How would you go about the stats as you level? I managed to find a Sharp 8 IP finally. Tryna find the Shadow armor that gives Crit +10. My FAW is finally 3/3/3 ASPD too.

 

I bought a Sapha cloth that has +14 crit enchants(The best I could find atm) and having trouble looking for a suitable headgear.

For leveling purposes, I would focus on dex first for the earlier levels as high thief, then get plenty of luk. For a while, you will be relying on your gear for aspd and damage. You are almost certain to struggle at lower lvls, the build starts weak because of the lack of hit rate until you get a good crit rate.

I will elaborate a bit more when I get home, typing on my phone in this cold is freezing my hands into place.

Edit 1: you could try to get crystal pumps for the +5 luk to help while leveling. If you plan on getting more than one FAW, a green maiden card would help a lot too. Once you get to sinX, grab a kandura for until you hit lvl 100.

Been trying to upload some MVP videos, but for some reason, Youtube refuses to let me upload anything. Tried both .avi and .mp4 so far.

And here we go. Attempt #1 at uploading a vid...

A quick GTB, will post more later as I get more comfortable with recording stuff. I ALWAYS forget something when trying to record haha.





And now Mistress.





I forgot to bring my Dullahan, but this will do for the moment.

ET solo is a pain with this build. Not because of the MVPs, but the floors inbetween are just too slow to 1v1. The monsters are also too weak for EQ to have enough time to cast.Though I guess you could dual client an aoe class to clear the non mvp floors.

[Havenn]

Can you do TG or something with good HP? I wanna compare kill time xD

[Omnipheles]

Sure, as I said, I will post more as I get more time and get used to recording.

Also, know any decent free recording software that is decent and isn't fraps? Fraps doesn't seem to like me atm.

try Bandicam

[Omnipheles]

Alright I'll check it out. I might add some more MVP footage tonight, dunno which MVPs yet though, depends which I find alive.

[Omnipheles]

OK Here are a few new MVP vids.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also re-added the GTB and Mistress vids that had gone missing in the first post.

 

Enjoy.

[Havenn]

Very nice! Now I gotta test out my times vs those with my new build xD

[Omnipheles]

Frankly this still isn't optimal yet, I'm still working on the details of my build and I forgot to use my dullahan again in almost every single vid. I'm keeping the better MVPs for when I feel I'm really ready to shine .

Can you elaborate a little more about the places you soloed when you were leveling, please?

Thanks.

[Omnipheles]

I guess i could tonight. I can't edit my posts from my phone or it erases the videos apparently.

[Omnipheles]

Here's my normal leveling path:

 

lvl 1-15 

 

Rockers 1 - 1 south and 1 west from Prontera, use fire endow/Mild Wind

 

lvl 15-30

 

Poporings and Marins as well from lvl 22 - 2 south and 1 east from Prontera, use VVS Wind Damascus for the Marins.

 

lvl 30-40 

 

Wolves - 1 south and 1 west from Payon, fire endow/Mild Wind and an Ice Pick with Sharp8+.

 

lvl 40-56

 

Metallers - Teleport to the lighthouse from Morroc and go 1 east. Water endow/Mild Wind and an Ice Pick with Sharp8

 

lvl 56-71

 

Eden turn in quest for Maneater Blossoms, easy and not very expensive to skip that many levels.

 

lvl 71-80

 

Mi Gaos - 1 south of Louyang (Teleport from Alberta). Fire endow/Mild Wind, Grimtooth with Sharp enchants and Ice Pick with Sharp8+

 

From there, there are a lot more options. Also depends on the week's TI. There are quite a few bounty boards you can do now too. Getting to 99 keeps getting easier. Just remember to job change at max 42 if you're a High Thief.

 

These maps might not be the best for AoE grinding, but for 1v1 they're good enough and normally free of bots/hordes of players. Frankly, as long as you can handle the monster well enough and are within lvl range, it's good.

 

 

Once you're a GX, you'll be leveling off TI/Bounty boards. At this point you can just take base lvl as reward, your job levels will only matter at endgame for a little more agi. Since you're going to be autoattacking a lot, your good skills are the ones you get as a SinX and Hallucination Walk/New Poison research.

 

As a GX with a lot of luk, you're going to be able to gear up with Perfect Dodge to lure easily in TIs. This will make it much easier for you to get into parties. Once you feel confident enough, you can just solo the TIs.

[Riemn]

Cool, thank you for posting it!!

[Omnipheles]

Was going to record Nidhoggr tonight, but Report from the New World glitched on me at the final part. Now I have to wait for my ticket to be answered for that one...

[frohzn]

Hahah yeah... The quest suxx hard

[Omnipheles]

Indeed, it does. Took hours and boom, glitched.

[frohzn]

Btw why is aunoe c. better than tgcard

[Omnipheles]

Well it's not straight up better, it depends on your current crit damage and if you're using AK card too.

 

It's because of the way Crit damage is calculated as well as the way different modifiers stack. You should still use TG if you have access to it if only for the magnum break autocast.

[KMCF]

TG Card is expensive though. Unless you're just too damn rich. Then aunoe is your best choice.
