For WOE you would have to ask someone else. I might switch to a WOE build once I hit 150 myself so I would need some guidance there
As for the variations on skill builds, the one with max SW seems most useful
You can check my sig, see what my main AB is wearing. You can also search other ABs via ROPD and see what they are wearing if they are showing it.
Low End/Mid End equips for AB:Weapon: Get 20 eden merit badges and trade them for 100 Bravery Badges and get a Strong Recovery Wand. +14% to heal/sanc and its free unlike wand of affection (account bound though)
Garment: Vali's Manteau: 15% against neutral
Shoes: Vidar's Boots (very cheap) or Vital Tree Shoes (+10% Hp, +5% healing on yourself and cheap too)
Armor: Puente Robe of Ares (PecoPeco Card) - +10% HP, +5 Healing, pretty nice
Robe of Affection and Robe of Judgement. Robe of affection is holy 1 - reduces 25% from regular elements. Robe of Judgement is Shadow, reduces damage from shadow property monsters a LOT
Headgear: Yggdrasil Crown <3333. Just keep trying to get it higher + as you get money. Mids/Lower - anything works. I wear Elven's just because they look cool even though they give no def.
Shield: Lots and Lots of Stone Bucklers (or Round Bucklers), racial carded. I have like 6 I think. Wear them depending on the map/monsters your party is killing.
Some Good ones: Penomena -30% formless, Thara -30% demihuman, Khalizburg -30% demon, Teddy Bear -30% undead, Bigfoot -30% insects, Sky Petite -30% Dragon
Accessory: Clip under Cast (Phen Card), Green Apple Ring (Replace with Light of Cure once you get it)
I don't recommend the Affection Set. You can use one at lower levels until 120ish, but after that you should definitely scrap it. It increases damage you take from monsters (except demihuman I think) and you can have easy reduction in Garment that might be more useful than those extra heals
Now... Expensive stuff you can aim for:Weapon: Glorious Cure Wand. Takes 400 eden merit badges to make. I hope you have VIP, cause you get 2badges per quest instead of 1 as non-vip. Overupgrading it gives nice healing bonuses. +9->+10 alone is a +10% healing boost.
Slotted Mids: preferably Black Frame Glasses(BFG), 1 extra int mid gear. 2x pairs - one for ungoliant card that gives bleeding immunity, because bleeding is from 90% of monsters above lvl 120. It makes you not regen SP for like 1-2min. Some maps, like Thor's, you get it 24/7. So you would need to bring SP items instead or sit around and wait for SP to regen. 2nd pair for arc angeling card, makes you regen SP super fast and be able to support a party much easier. (these 2 pairs are already like... 500mil total. On Ygg BFG are like 100m+, AA is 150m and Ungoliant 100m....) By the Way, Arc Angeling need you to have 77 luk to work, so make sure you have it. My AB build has exactly 77 luk and I am putting the rest into int.
Upper Headgear: Ygg Crown, the higher +, the better.
Lower Headgear: I dont think it really matters....My friend says the clover in mouth is nice since it gives +2 Luk. I use a Well Chewed Pencil, +2 Dex.
Armor: Diabolus Robe, +6% healing and reduces cast delay 10% so better than puente. You can put in something like Peco Peco card (+10% HP) or pest card ( casts stone curse when youre attacked), or Demon Fungus Card (casts sleep when you are attacked. Helps if you are getting mobbed.)
Garment: Immune Heroic Backpack (Raydric Card, -20% against neutral. Monster's regular attacks hit you 20% less dmg... Later if you ever get it - Deviling Card -50% from neutral but +50% every other element. You can tank mobs, as long as they dont have skills that are some other element that hurts). Diabolus Manteau and Nidhoggur's Shadow Garb are also good and a bit cheaper and easier to obtain.
Shoes: Variant Shoes (+20% HP/SP, must have for MVPing. MVPs HURT) MAKES SURE YOU DO NOT UPGRADE THEM, they loose 1% HP/SP boost with every upgrade, so +0 is the best.
Shield: Valk Shield or Overupgraded Immune Shield (increased reduction from neutral with upgrade lvls) with Hodremlin - -15% from all reduction. Handy for maps where monsters are different races.
Accessory: Diabolus Ring under Cast (Phen Card. Ring gives +100sp/hp and +5% Heal efficiency <3), Light of Cure, enchanted with Cure lv1 (Mora AB ring, relatively easy to obtain if you did the Mora quest and got coins for it. I like the +2 int enchant. The ring lets you spam lvl 1-5 High Heals with 0.3 second delay (original:3.3s) Its pretty nice and can save someone. By the way, I hope you use party window to heal, since it is faster than trying to target people that are moving around a lot.)
I don't know much about the chibi pope hat+ slotted blush. I guess its nice if you have both of them slotted with Arc Angeling Cards and when the pope is like +10. Otherwise, I think Ygg is much much better.
(WOOT WE WERE PINNED ^_^, TNX)
