Koyuki

this guide was wrote for Interlude, a lot of things changed for summoners since then, specially Phantom Summoner which is now the most IMBA class in the game, since they got death spike skill

yes and easily...if were talking about arena pvp

without npc buffers, without gm shop, normal raid boss respawn, buffs normal time, no mp pots mid rates are ok, to let ppl enjoy the pve game... and class , subclass and noblesse quests done automatically

the doom heavy set + doom shield adds a huge block rate bonus, if you equip it in a Temple Knight and get bless the shield and advanced block buffs it becomes awesome for PVE..just to share knowledge... im not a huge fan of shields for fighters anyway, i always preferred to use 2 handed blunts or swords in some melee...for mage any shield works because they have low block rate anyway...so i pick the one that makes me look better lol

ofc were talking about custom high rate servers.. if fighter: Valakas, Baium, Queen Ant, 2 S-80 earrings highly enchanted if mage: Valakas, Baium, Antharas, 1 ring and 1 earring S-80 highly enchanted i dont know about the belleth ring because i never got one...

i remember i got my augument nerfed in that server just because i was able to kill GM friend and allies..they changed my aura flare augment form 900 range to 250 range and added a huge reuse delay to it... i quit for this reason also it was very laggy and boring because they didnt made the server balanced like : in the beginning was easy to get 50 life stones in a day..than after make some ppl very strong, they changed LS drop rates to minimal and became impossible get a good augment a crap server...waste of time..i pass it

Dion, has the best music in the game, and brings back memories of when i was a poor dwarf, bought my first SSD recipe to make and sell D grade soul shots to make my way to the top ^^ left the computer on selling soul shots and go sleep, wake up in the morning and check how much profit i made lol 62Nl7CmdwUU

for me C3 is still the best chronicle ever...C4 is close to it, i just didnt liked it because they added olympiad, and because olympiad they ruined my favorite class gameplay for the next chronicles adding erase to healler classes but in C3/C4 Elemental summoners were the strongest class for sieges, it was just awesome hit and kill multiple enemies with merrow hydro screw...now any noob comes and...erase...

lol you must be joking read my post about olympiad tiers to learn something about it lol and yes Gladiator beats SpellHowler anytime, anywhere

Gracia part 2 the most powerful class is Phantom Summoner, without any doubt...you have everything at your favor mage bane (cancel for mages), wind shackle, imunity to debuffs, awesome cubics, the best summon buffs, huge matk, transfer pain, and now death spike now phantom summoners are something like necromancer always wanted to be..and if you want to play as a pure nuker and forget your summoner abilities, you can use Nightshade as a personal healler also, PS are currently the most versatile L2 class, has tons of ways to play and own in the game Phantom Summoner = imba at any situations, PVE, PVP, one of the few classes that can easily PVE alone, unstopable farming machine, excelent group playing as a support/attacker because nightshade has some prophet buffs, number one class for olympiad, a mini-tank for raid boss etc you gonna suffer a lot with those classes, nobody wants them in pve parties, so its a really long way to xp, boring, and hard, they will only want your help for raid boss, and you know how hard is to find good groups to kill raid bosses...has problem making money too, because they earn it slowly and spend much in soul shots, because takes many hits to kill a mob...i woudnt recommend it for some1 that is starting the game after a long break

what would you chose? death whisper or focus? pick only one of these buffs... death whisper is critical damage....soul bow has more patk so inflicts more damage... focus is critical rate... carnage is faster, so gives more critical hits in time... light elf with carnage = lots of critical hits, interrupt enemy cast many times, faster reuse on skills dark elf with soul bow = slow, slow , dead ^^

copy/paste from outdated stuff = FAIL Celestial Shield augment is no longer available since...Kamael...it was only on interlude and got removed from the game

Carnage is slow, and Soul Bow is very slow, but has a slight bigger patk both have quick recovery if i remember well....theyre like 12% or 13% QR in other hand the Shyeed Bow adds more patk, but it is also very slow...but its Quick recovery SA is 17% making it the best A grade bow ever also if you convert very slow bows into crossbows for kamael, you will get a slow crossbow with 17% quick recovery on it, making it the fastest long ranged fighter weapon in the game i had Trickster with A grade shyeed crossbow and pvp might augment, it was awesome!!!!

Trickster is awesome at archers party...but its being ignored due to players ignorance of its gameplay an archer party with a Trickster replacing one archer is a winner at any pvp situation... huge mdef Prahnah buff and the ability to get closer and paralise an enemy healler, and run away fast to escape is just awesome

depends on other equips...you can pretty much win as a Sorcerer in Doom Robe set for example if you have ability and good weapon more jewerly against some1 equiped in DC robe with C grade weapon and C jewerly i know cuz i use doom robe to farm mobs as sorcerer subclass cuz the matk + mp regen is good, and its a cheap set, if i die and drop isnt a big lost..and i owned once a Necro and his friend bladedancer, i was selfbuffed, but had better weapon and jewerly than both

wrong, critical magic is 1/4 capped...u can critical once every 4 spells..the one who casts faster will do more criticals in less time, but critical rate is the same , even comparing Mystic Muse to Doomcryer now

necro gets cast interrupted many times vs Mystic Muse..even with summon and now, we have a set that adds dark resistance, and we can add even more dark resistance to it using stones...against Mystic Muse necro must have armor with resistance to light and water so MM is overall better in mass pvp

being clan leader is a very hard task...i was once and takes a lot of work because many noobs joins the clan and u need to teach them stuff and repeat things a billion times because ppl seems to not understand and many dont know the meaning of a clan = teamwork, and just play solo and dont answer to clan call, those deserve to be kicked... also some ppl join clans only because clan hall or to get skills or ask for help building equips, that suxx too

now we have npc buffer , Hierophant loses to some..but can win Elemental Master (aqua cubic can make summoner win)..losing to Spectral Master easily

yes but...this is without augments ...the nuke augments are very hard and rare to obtain with augments this changes a lot.. in olympiad prophet isnt S because loses easy to Duelist, Grand Kawhatari, Titan, and because npc buffer is there for all classes , since classes can get buffs now..b4 this Prophet was #1 in olympiad

nope they wont die cuz freezing flame takes away like 50% of mobs hp under lvl 40...you cannot let the warcryer take the agro , that can happen if the mob hits the warcryer first, thats why equip it on heavy armor, for more pdef when the dwarf cast spoil, agro goes to the dwarf...if kill faster, less damage, less chant of life and save mp...xp this way is very faster and useful

but...gear cannot be enchanted to +25 on normal servers with gameplay based on retail, that you said applies only to noob servers x5000 donators the max you should go on decent servers is +6 for armor , and boss jewerly not everyone has access a tier list should be done considering who defeats who and considering all classes, elemental summoner defeats the biggest number than Duelist and Dominator the tier should look like: ***S tier*** Elemental Master, Spectral Master ***A tier*** Dominator,Duelist, Titan, Arcana Lord, Soul Taker, Hierophant, Phoenix Knight ***B tier*** Doomcryer, Grand Kawhatari, Storm Screamer, Doombringer, Moonlight Sentinel, Mystic Muse ***C tier*** Maestro, Archmage, Trickster, Ghost Hunter, Adventurer, Saggitarius, Shillien Knight, Hell Knight, Evas Saint, Ghost Sentinel ***D tier*** Wind Rider, Soul Hound, Cardinal, Sword Muse, Spectral Dancer ***E tier*** Fortune Seeker, Dreadnought, Shillien Saint, Evas Templar explanations: S tier, Elemental Master and Spectral Master pretty much defeats everyone, if they cant kill heallers they fight for a tie..Spectral has Death Spike so its the reason its up there..smart cubic makes them invincible to all debuffs, and "wind shackle" is a way more useful skill than Arcana Lord "arcane disruption" A tier, they have a chance against the S tiers, but they usually loses, in the case of Arcana Lord has the worst cubics and worst summon, also the worst stats of the summoners, MP makes consumption makes Dominator vulnerable so its the reason its not S...Titan depends on timing to use skills, same for Duelist, where the first seconds of the match is crucial to determine the victory or not, Hierophant fights are long and boring, but a good hierophant ends winning by most of mages and melee classes..losing to long range fighters, the awesome set of resistance buffs helps them...Phoenix Knight is hard to kill because of its ammount of hp, defense and ability to recover..Soul Taker has the summon and banes, plus the ability to leech life (dark vortex and vampiric claw) , what put it above all the other casters B tiers, they can defeat C, D and E and win against each other, having some small chances against A..Doomcryer lacks many of the Dominator skills and has also trouble with mp, but the critical resistance helps them... StormScreamer can leech life with dark vortex and has many skills to use, Mystic Muse cannot life leech but has cancellation and faster casting and many skills to use..Moonlight sentinel has some good self skills others dont have, plus more moving speed and atk speed to kite against melee classes, making it better than other archers, Grand Kawhatari has trouble with timing, otherwise would be in tier A C tiers they can win against each other and defeat D and E, having small chances against B, minimal against A and none against S...Archmage lacks many skills, making it the worst mage, and cancellation at this slow c.speed isnt helpful, but its KO if lands...Maestro has the summon and now very good buffs that combine with fatal strike, the summon helps because distracts the enemy, Trickster has moving speed, attack speed, critical rate, big mdef but lacks attack power and range...Shillien Knight is strong if the cubics lands, also attacking at distance helps a lot comparing to other tanks, Hell Knight has the panther and some useful skills, its same case as Maestro..human and d.elf archers and daggers have strong and weak points, they can kill a good ammount of ppl but also get killed a lot too.. D class can kill each other and win E, with small chances against C, none vs B, A and S, with the exception of Cardinal wich can go for a tie lol E class sucks against everyone and sucks against each other

elemental summoner beats both, dominator and duelist..and easy just dont beat heallers with erase and mana burn..but overlord also cant beat them in other hand , duelist dont beat Titan , and loses to all 3 summoners, elemental beats both, warlock and phantom

lol i would prefer a warcryer and a bounty hunter for that it has so many advantages...you level faster, you get materials for making money, and you can have your own buffer just give the orc mystic a heavy armor + dagger (lvl 1 to 40 only) so he can take damage and hit with melee attacks, ofc c.speed will be hell slow but you will only use magic once every 20 minutes or so STRATEGY: -in the orc window, cast freezing flame at distance in the red mobs, lands 99% of time in the beginning levels with blessed shots (example: Partisan Hideway at lvl 20 for example, mobs are red and gives steel) -change to the dwarf window and send it to hit mobs with spoil, the dwarf will tank and take the agro..you may have enough time to do it before freezing flame reaches the mob, so the orc wont take risks -this way both levels faster, gets the benefit of party xp bonus, gets buffed and rich at same time..ofc you need to choose spots that gives materials that are actually useful -not to mention you gonna have advantage against potential pkers/pvpers ^^

i like Rune more than Aden, i just hate the Aden field
