So I just joined DS like yesterday, tried out the 4 classes and came to like Warrior... I was thinking of making a Dragoon, so if any1 can help me with a PVE build for it? .. a pure grinding build would do(with minimal/close to none PVP) ... atm its lvl 10 and am following DragoonGuide

My build right now:
MyBuild

So any thoughts/advices would be awesome ...

Just for reference, Camei is one of the most extraordinary and greatest Dragoons we have in our server. That guide will be invaluable if you read it. That being said, Camei also likes to PvP.

I am a strictly PvE Dragoon so I'll give you the base of my build.. Keep in mind that as a Dragoon that later you will probably be spamming 1-2 skills over and over again. Here are your main attack skills, listed in order as you get them:
-Storm Blade
-Spear Jab
-Spin it Bear!
-Time Reverse********* THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT SKILL EVER
-Cross Cut
-Mega Storm Blade
-Chain Shield
-Rolling Ground

Here is a build that pretty much resembles mine.

You can mess around with Awakening skills and the Ultimate because you can use Dragon Dive in PvE if you so desire, and ultimates are always fun. I wouldn't add points to the Defense/HP line down the center of the Knight branch until way later, after you've gotten all your Attack skills out of the way.

Combos typically consist of:

Cross Cut + Spear Jab
Spin it Bear + Rolling Ground -- for mobs and this creates great DPS for bosses as well
Spin it Bear + [Mega] Storm Blade / Chain Shield -- either works
Spin it Bear + Cross Cut

Cross Cut is great because it hits knocked down enemies and enemies that are still being launched. Time Reverse lowers the cooldown/casttime on your skills while you have it active, but it drains MP per second. Rolling Ground is great damage and you're invincible while using it. For armor later, you'll want the Chaotic sets at 3/3 for Critical Damage.

Just a quick note on some ideas you may have: passives that add ATK like Sword Mastery are generally useless. Also, Strength is a useless stat and if you stack it you won't gain much ATK. Stacking stats comes much later in the game but you should know these things.

This is a very general overview and I recommend you read Camei's guide thoroughly.

Cool thx .. just what I was looking for ...

yup atm just breezing through lvls in mission mode or rather hammering through ...

[Kazu731]

Keep note that Hammer spamming is bad etiquette in party play, and a Launch/Cutdown + Storm Blade combo is generally much stronger.

until you get broom jab and spin it bear, I must say hammer spam is the most effective way to kill the boss at low level.

[ShinRai007]

yup, am trying to get used to cutdown+storm blade now .. but still hammering is best way for now in instances xD ... can solo bosses with CD+HC+BY

It's effective solo. It's not effective in a party. I don't think I need to explain why.

i do understand how annoying it is when in a party lol espeacially since you can launch boss now
