Its .09- .06 xp, and they are moderately easy to kill.

I would recommend 2 hand swords, just because they're more powerful. I mean, it doesn't really matter, because a sword user can switch between 1 hand and 2 hand whenever they feel like, just saying that you'll be stronger with 2 hand.

As for stats: Don't add any to dex ever unless you're going to be leveling on something new and you need the higher dex to get more accuracy to be able to hit them. And even then, accuracy gear is better. There are 100+ warriors with less than 10 dex and they are much stronger because of it.

Hmm I might start playing in Bera with you all you FFR'ers there. I'm in lvl 35 Assasin.

One thing I don't think anybody else mentioned: 2hand swords are the most popular, making them and the upgrade scrolls for them the most expensive out of the 4 choices (1h/2h sword, 1h/2h axe). 1h axe scrolls are some of the cheapest things ever, as are 1h axes. But 1h sword will even be a dramatic drop in price over a 2h sword. They are just about as strong because of their speed, but you'll use more pots (more, faster swings is still more swings, meaning more MP used). That's offset by the drastic cost difference when scrolling and buying new swords, though. xD

Also, if you have been doing dex = double your level STOP NOW. If you have nearly 60 dex already that's way too much. My 4X spearlady has less than 40 dex, and I thought it was kinda up there for her level. o_O

Yeah they're "cheaper" but they're also quite rare to find for sale because people tend to not sell things if they aren't worth a lot.

So you might end up saving a lot of money by going with a less popular weapon, but you'll be a bit weaker and you'll waste a lot of time searching for weapons and scrolls for sale.

Question.

If I use an unrandomizer to get 4/4/13/4, no one will care and I will still be considered legit, right?

I mean, I'm not asking this question for myself, because frankly, I wouldn't bother to tell you if I just use an unrandomizer/AC/stuff of the sort, but rather, for "reference". I just want to hear your opinions.

[87x]

yea.. Should I restart the character?.. lol.. My Dex is 58, with strength being around 101. When I started playing this game, over a year ago, all the guides said, make DEX double your level. Why the change in Strats? Also, I still haven't gotten a guild invite yet.. Whats up with that?

*EDIT*
Level 30.... Going to do Fighters Quest.

[banditcom]

58 is fine.

[Verruckter]

I'm thinking about starting a new char in whatever server XQSite guild is. What should I go for/can I expect financial help?

[craZ_kylo]

i would hide in a corner CAMP!!!!

Well just dont tell people you used an unrandomizer, and ur still considered to be legit by most if you use an ac.

Btw, what made you change your mind about hacking?

[ToshX]

Someone posted an MS hack thread just now on FFR.

Contains a virus which could really mess you up. Don't open it.

The fact that I had Dialup for a bit making it impossible to train.

Also Orbis PQing was nice.

Bera and probably yes.

[Verruckter]

Alright, Bera it is. Anyone with some uber MS skills can give me a detailed plan for the most efficient job, i.e. the one that levels the fastest and that's the most fun to play. I'm thinking.. anything but warrior!

[ToshX]

Pure int cleric.

Do you want a UCE and .CT so you can unrandomize it, or do you just want to roll for an 11?

However, a lot of people hate playing clerics for some reason. They just get bored of it(even though I never do), so you might want to be an Ice/Light mage.

Some people also like Assassins, but that's really up for you to decide. They're not a wonderful thing to start out, because you'll probably want to be low dex, and that costs a lot of money. You don't have to be low dex though.

[Verruckter]

I'll try Cleric. I just want something that levels really fast. Could I get a more detailed "guide"?

[ffrrocksya]

what a cool thread this is.

Yes.

Also, pure int clerics are the fastest levellers I can think of.

So are you going to continue hacking?

I tried playing my friend's cleric at 6x- boring as hell and weak as hell

I have 52 i/l which i also find hella weak. I guess pure int would be ok, but I personally like hunters a lot more; my lv 44 hunter can almost hit 3k now

Pure int i/l should lv faster than pure int cleric

[ToshX]

More than likely, yes, now that I have my good connection back. That means my legitimate 55 f/p will probably be semi-halted for now, unless I get into Orbis PQing one day and level him or something.

Also, I've played Squeek's EDIT: priest(I dunno why I say cleric all of the time), and I found it really, really fun. Even if it's pretty much the same thing as in 2nd job, I still loved it. I even made one of my own at some point in time.

Also, the pure i/l won't level as fast as the cleric is the cleric is levelling properly.

When I say properly, I mean I've almost never seen a person in MS train to their full potential. I can't even think of any examples of anyone.

Well, I used 2h swords from 10-60, and I would have during 6X, but an average sparta on bellocan is around 15-18 mil -_-. So I just bought a neocora, 7 60% scrolls, and an adamantium legend shield for less than half of the cost of the average sparta would have.

Unfortunately only 3 60% worked

You're lucky you found out that warriors cap dex around that lvl when you did. The reason I say this is because now I am lvl 62 fighter with 92 base dex
