Rappelz - Strider Guide

Fighting : Unless your the tank for some odd reason, try to not spam your threat level skills, Oblivion is their to stop the threat but it doesnt always cut it.

Saving the party: If a party comes to the point where the cleric is under attack, thats what HeadBreaker and Sleeping Dust are for =P.

Skills : For starters get Dual Weild ASAP, then Deep Evasion, Assasins Impact, Defect Finding, Head Breaker, Sleeping Dust and Oblivion, if ive missed any important skills out please tell me . For Passive skills go for the mastery of Sword Or Dirk, along with the Dual skill, HP regeneration is ok.

Equipment :

R1 Gear : Bah, its a tough choice between dirk or sword, if your the type that likes speed over power then go for dirk and vice versa.

R2 Gear : If your a sword picker then choose Dark Curblade or Knights sword, If you fancy a Balloon sword then pray that a mob drops it or find a seller. If dirk is your liking then choose between Iron Dagger or Blade of Darkness, Knights Hawk is not buyable so like with Balloon Sword youll have to find a seller. If you want some rings then go for strength or speed rings.

R3 Gear : Dirk = Hands of the Dark, Ornimental Silver Knife, Sword = Blazing Demolisher, Flamberge or Eternity but its one of them rare weapons so youll have to pray for a drop or find a seller. For rings I would say 2 rings of illusion, very good rings.

About the Skills :

Active Skills :

Assasins Impact : This skill is what makes us the powerhouses that we are, when this is used with defect finding were talking some major damage. Get rappelz rupees this maxed ASAP and try to find some cards to boost its power.

Defect Finding : Youll have to wait till JB lv 35 before you can get this but its worth it, it boosts crit rate and isnt timed, it drains mp though so keep some mana scrolls handy. For party grinding use lv 3 and for bosses lv 5.

Deep Evasion : This skill will keep you alive in a dungeon if used at the right time, when the second jobs come out we striders will be untouchable =P (except by DMs, curse them and their spells). Get maxed ASAP.

Oblivion : This might not seem like much but in a boss fight it can save your life, although if your spamming skills it doesnt always help. It becomes useless in the higher lvls though since the monsters threat goes through the roof.

Concentration and Quick Pace : Maxed ASAP.

Passive Skills:

Expert weapon mastery : Maxed ASAP

Sword Mastery : Maxed ASAP if your a sword user.

Dirk Mastery : Maxed ASAP if your a dagger user.

Dual Weild : MAXED ASAP!!!!! I cant stress this enough.

HP Regeneration : Try to max quickly as it can be a bit useful.

Well this is the end of this long guide, if theres anything ive missed feel free to tell me
