Some things I read got me confused, so sorry about that part.

I might go with Armor Crash, since that seems to have more use than a blue tiger that will end up doing only a hundred or two on monsters and soon after nothing.

the facts that i can cast shout in the air and that it has excellent range have helped me quest, apq, and ks or kill at low level areas so much that i would never give up shout. i can usually keep up with i/ls doing same quests, and kill certain maps faster than them. my shout does 1.5~3k.

i never use my max armor crash because i kill the only trainable monster that uses def up (skeles) so fast that i dont care. i dont ht yet, but i soon will and for that i dont need max crash and bishops can take my place anyways.

dont go crash over shout. bad idea. i regret leaving relax at 11 instead of crash.

That's true, i think shout is much more useful than armor crash considering brandish will allow you to kill mosnters before they can even defense up.

[Chuey]

Hmm, well, I wasn't sure how much use shout would be to me, and Armor Crash seems like something I'd hardly use either. But, then again, the blue tiger is kinda cool to spam, so I suppose I could use it for now and then.

Thanks, I really wasn't sure what to do at all. Armor Crash cancels a particular buff. Shout does small damage, looks cool, but not always useful. Heh.

What's the earliest you can go to himes for a DK? As soon as you can hit them?

Yes, as soon as you can hit them often enough, which for most is somewhere between 80-100%. Also take into consideration the pot burn you get, because if it's too much for your liking, leave and come back when you kill faster. Getting a Priest would help on both of those issues, so see if you can find one.

Are face accessories worth investing into? Once I get my zhelm at around 50 I'll have around 125 ACC for my dexless fighter. I'm just wondering with the Black Belt adding 6.5 accuracy, would a Branch Nose, Raccoon Mask, Rat Mouth be worth saving up for?

[Sn1perJohnE]

If you are going to be wearing something like a Night Ravens Wing, then a Rat Mouth or Branch Nose would be worth it (specially the 10 slot one with STR). If you need more ACC, the Raccoon masks are good also, but can cost alot.

Face Equips are usually not worth looking into unless you are extremely funded and actually need that acc. Most of the times you can usually get more acc by upgrading shoes/cape/top-bottom/overall/earring. If you are at a point where you seriously need the extra amount of acc, then its a good idea, but it usually will cost you 300m+ for a good face equip. If you really want to try for a face equip, try gaching in Mushroom Shrine, since it gives all the face equips. Scrolling them can be risky tho.

Try using a Maple Soul Rohen, since it comes with around 36 accuracy on it.

Im thinking about my build currently planning on getting to my 130s as soon as possible, Im set on what I want from 120-130, beserk 20, beholder 10... but after that do I get achiles to make training easier on my self at skellegons or do I get mw in hope of getting to 100% 2hkos sooner rather than later ?

More realistically, the dilemma should be a choice between MW and Stance, but the answer fits the bill for your choice too.
First you need to know exactly how well you'll be doing with and without MW, and make your choice accordingly.
Achilles helps a lot and in various situations. But 10 more lvls of Berserk is faster to go and way more efficient so it's also an alternative to consider.
Mw20 and Berserk30 aren't all that different in price in Windia anyway, only thing is you'll fail one book more times than the other. xP

I would love to be able to go to beserk 30 or mw 20 ... but I was thinking of mw10 vs achilles 30 15% off of all physical damage would help a dark knight living off an unwashed 35% hp right ? and if i get stance simeltaneously then the hugging of skellegons would be less of a task no ? hmmmm..... so many paths but only one can be chosen.......

Hugging Skeles isn't fun.
Your best bet is like that of many other Drks, Zerk30.

You can do better calculations, it's your char

Oh well, let's break it down with arbitrary numbers.

- Unwashed 14x Drk has 14x00 HP, 35% of which is 4900~, 50% of which is 7000~
- Skele does 2k touch dmg, 3.3k Kamehameha dmg, with max Achilles it becomes 1700 and 2805 approximately.
- Mw9 gives 5% str boost, being +35~40str, converting to 262~320 dmg range depending on your gears.
- Zerk 30 gives a net increase of 17.65% dmg.
- Dmg range needed to 100% 2hit Skele is somewhere around 4320~6000 or a bit higher.

Now then, Zerk30 may not seem like an "OMGwtpSOMUCHSTRONGER" dmg increase, 15% more HP is more valuable than anything else to a Drk's career. If:
- You can 2hit well with Zerk30, go for it, it's better than anything else all-round.
- You can't 2hit well enough in whatever scenario, 15% HP+ > 15% dmg off. (obviously since they're multiplicative to 14k and 3k respectively)
- Zerk30 is nononononono x 100000000 times, I vote for Achilles.

[HeroPride]

Hey guys, I have a level 148 Hero... Question is where should i be training for the best exp. If you want to know my spec's(haha), well lets just say i can 2 hit all the time on skeles. Where should i be training.. thank you all

[Blaine]

Find a Bishop that can at least 2-hit Skeles...shouldn't be too hard, Khaini's chock full of them. Train there, that'll be good for you, assuming you have Rush.

I guess you're finally back. Kaj told us juniors to look out for you coming back. So welcome back and whisper me if you need an invite to our newly renamed guild.

As for training, if leveling speed is important, get a bishop at skeles, otherwise come train at ToT where you can farm for time pieces.

[HeroPride]

oh i thought there will be better places then skeles, anywho skeles r still great, because of the dungeons, ONe last question which i want to ask is, Ariant PQ, how many people can enter(minimum) and is Ariant pq much faster then KPQ. Thank you in advance!!! DUDE GLEN whats up bro, i tink my first goal will be getting a pg mule, then makin a koc to lvl 120. Haha then i guess ill train my hero. Oh im unable to play maplestory for like 3 or more days, im using my ps3 atm. Oh and prolly on the 31st ill come on maplestory on my old computer which i fixed 2 nights ago.

[Stereo]

Ariant PQ is competitive, I don't think it's faster than KPQ, but you can go in alone.

[Shadow Trainer]

If you have two accounts that can play ACPQ then it is faster than KPQ. All you do is get the minimum amount of catches to get 5850 points which IIRC is 30 or so and start killing the rest of the scorpions.

[HeroPride]

Yes i can log on 2 accounts at same time but not play at same time XDD.
so do i have to kill on 1 account(the one i got to level) becuz its gona be a pure hp warrior.

Thank you in advance!!!
