First, for the people that posted after me: Thanks so much for the advice(s)!

I personally went for pure PA fury first, it was amazing exp at WR until I left there at about 79 or so and fought at the stormbreaker map in CWK. I know not many people go up there but I found the exp to be even better than WR albeit more expensive. Just circle around the map clearing everything out(if you go there its pretty obvious how to cycle through it) I stayed there until I was ready for himes at around 92-93 I think it was.

Hm.....never thought Stormbreakers would be a good training spot. Do you mean the Stormbreakers in the caves at the Lower Ascent?

Also, never tried the Evil Dead map but I don't think that the exp you would be getting there is better than you could get at the stormbreaker map I mentioned. Anyways, good luck to you and hope I helped slightly.

Well, back when I was rummaging through on my F/P AM, I literally hated that place since it was literally infestation to the max. Hoardes and hoardes of Elderwraiths made me go nuts, and if a BF showed up there, I had to run for my life.

But here's a few legit things I can exploit at that place: Elderwraith's ability to follow you and their sheer numbers in that map alone. If you combine those......well yeah, you'll get what I mean about that. Plus I'm going to be done with my HP washing by level 90 (estimated 16-17K HP with HB at level 90), so I shouldn't have a problem surviving there, albiet running from a BF if it justs spawn out of nowhere.

If you need, I can go there tomorrow and take a SS of that map I'm talking about.

I have a pair of 118 att ski skys with no hammer used on them, should I use the hammer and attempt to get a 120+att or just save my money and nx to invest into creating a reverse weapon.

It maybe true that the Reverse Alchupiz spear has a 112 base, and has all the ability to level up and be scrolled to 13x but is it worth the investment considering my spears are one speed faster? Or should I just invest into that spear anyway because of the extra damage boost could get my range high enough to 2 hit skele's earlier? By the way this is all from a level 128 dark knight.

[WillDaSnail]

Here's my advice:

If you know that you'll still fall short, even after selling the spear (hammer'd or not), then I suggest sticking to Sky Skis.

Also, here's another thing: Your Sky Skis that you have will probably be the godsend of your life - you have the ability to deal a higher DPS than others who use Slow (7/8) spears for quite a long time (however, do note that godly-scrolled Slow 7/8 spears will overtake a Sky Ski eventually, but that's like a long shot). And hence this is why I'm feverishly hunting for a Sky Ski right now because of its sexy DPS ability.

If you wish to have something rare and unique, and have no use for the Sky Skis, as well as having everything ready, be my guest and go make the Reverse spear.

P.S. Can I have that Sky Ski? Lol jk =P

[KhainiWest]

Thanks for the advice, with a pine chew I'm barely 3 hitting them like 90%. I do about 26-30k damage with crusher sometimse a lil over 34k but once again this is with chew spamming. So I doubt even with a 12+att (118->130) will let me 2 hit. I mean I only have a 2.1k-5.4k+ max range atm x_x

Also without zerk, I could take one hit from a skele while zerking but its risky because auto pot is so undependable.

Also if you want a good set of ski's look into bera/scania, I saw one exact same stats for like 600mil. I scrolled these myself out of boredom. It was funny because the skiis and all the scrolls came from a fail gach run in NLC. LOL

[WillDaSnail]

Well here's another advice for you:

If you wish, try and get the Reverse Spear (or a FF/Pinaka/Dragon Faltizan) and scroll it . Usually for a few people, they have 2 spears: any slow (7/8) Spears for training and their pair of Skis for bossing. Usually the Slow-speed spears have more attack, allowing the user to kill monsters faster during training, while reserving the Sky Skis for bossing use. If you got the funds to do that, go give that a try.

However, if you manage to scroll some godly Slow (7/8) Spear(s) (like 5 30%'s working or above) and stats are high enough to overtake the Skis DPS-wise, then that's when you can switch to using only one spear.

[Kersmack]

Hm.....never thought Stormbreakers would be a good training spot. Do you mean the Stormbreakers in the caves at the Lower Ascent?

Nah, the stormbreaker map I'm talking about is the one inside the keep itself. It's the bottom right room once you get inside. The only annoying part is getting up there and goin past the CG's but if you have 15k hp like you were saying then that's not as much of a problem for you

Well i got them to 120att! So only a 132 attack spear can match them in dps, which i believe is only achievable(finacially) by the reverse spear. I guess it's best to level up and forge it later when I can at least have the ability to grind at TT xD.

On another note @12att blue wg and 16 brown wg ;D

*Looks to hitch a ride up with a CWKPQ-bound party to get to the keep's interior*

Hello guys,

i remeber begin a bug or something like that in the shout skill where at a cretian level it was beter/almost as good as max? anyone remeber this or got info about it? thx

[modular]

level 4 has a 100% stun rate but the range and damage are crap and i have certainly never used shout for stunning purposes. only for killing small mobs.

[Styles]

is it a good id to cap it at lv 4 and than train some levels and add it to like 20 to be more effective?

[Blaine]

It's %-wise the weakest skill in the game. It never becomes effective, unless you're having fun at HHG1, or killing things with less than...say 5-10k hp. But, there's not much else to do with the points, so, what the hell?

[TøbiasBlack]

ive got two questions:
is my 7/115 red surfboard better than my 10/114 eclipse?

and im a 93 DK in bellocan as i write this; ive already got max PA fury and roar, and am working on spear crusher now. would you guys say that going with blood, then ER, then sac would be a decent build choice?

[Stereo]

The surfboard is better, but not by a lot.

I would personally leave blood for later (it's non-essential as pots can replace it) and go ER>Blood>Sacrifice or something.

[Kalovale]

You most likely will be Himing, and seeing as Surfboard gives you slightly better dmg with no speed handicap, I'd say go with it.

About skillbuild, again, seeing as you'll mostly be training at Himes, it doesn't matter what atk skills you get, or even Blood, so don't let it bother you.

(Rage takes 20 2ndjob SPs and gives as much dmg boost to a party...)

[TøbiasBlack]

well, thanks for the advice guys; i asked more about my build because im a hybrid DK (should be obvious), but i fail to see a purpose for spear fury if i can just use a maxed sac. iuno. i will consider switching ER and blood, though.

[Stereo]

Well, Spear Fury, Sacrifice, and ER are all useless at Himes.. and Blood is just generally useless. So it doesn't matter much what you do.

[WillDaSnail]

When is a good level to start Gobying on my DK?

[Blaine]

Probably when you can reliably open the houses before they W. Att. Null, and when you can kill the mobs in less than say...5 hits or so?

[KhainiWest]

could someone give me an accurate formula of how much HP a warrio gains when he levels. No adding ap just leveling.
