I wanted to make him a blacksmith all right, but then I looked up the possible builds and they differ a lot. So I'm kinda stumped right now.
- I know that a Pure Forger is much better for making profit - however, leveling is a pain in the rear and I really don't want to go through that. But I might if I really have to.
- Then we have the Battlesmith: this would work like a charm since I get all the basic zeny-making merchant skills but I miss out on weapon forging which seems to be really popular. Plus, my main is a Knight so gameplay would be a tad repetitive.
So I saw the third build on the iRO wiki, which is the Battle Forger. Here is the sample stat build:
Basic Battle Forger Build (lv99)
- STR:74+6 (73+7 with Hilt Binding )
- AGI:50+2
- DEX:88+12
- INT:16+2
- VIT:25+6
- LUK:33+2
- Leftover of 1 stat point
I'd like some advice on this: is it a good build? I read in the same wiki that the margin of difference between, say, a Pure Forger and a Battle Forger, becomes pretty small as you reach the higher numbers on stats, and the high stat point cost of those mean that a pure forger quickly becomes a pain to level up in the later stages: basically, this build has the best of both worlds but may still be considered "mediocre" in comparison to the two main builds.
Thoughts? I'd love me some feedback because I'm pretty new to blacksmiths, to tell the truth.
Thanks in advance.
