Hello all,
It's been a long while since I last played RO. 3rd Classes had only been out on the Korean servers for a little bit at the time I played last. I've been doing some research since I found out that RO was now free to play. I remember that when I was playing before it was recommended to have a Blacksmith and an Alchemist to help save costs on creating potions and weapons. That has since changed and now it's pointless to have a Blacksmith and Alchemist? Since weapons that can be forged are not as good as more easily found/cheaper alternatives exist now (this makes sense to me, but is still sad) and it's no longer economical to craft your own potions? Is this correct, or was I misreading what I found.
I will still have both a Blacksmith and an Alchemist (and their respective higher classes) as I want all the classes. So I was trying to find inspiration for builds but all the builds I found were for older versions of the game. The iROwiki only has a few builds, and they don't really explain why they are the way they are or how they are used. In fact, the Blacksmith entry contradicts itself saying that STR is no longer a good stat for Blacksmiths then all the builds below have high STR. Am I just missing something?
Or does anyone happen to know another resource for current builds?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
