SinX lowrate guide

[Jason]

MvP cards are still too much about luck. And when you manage to get them no lowrate, then you are prolly experienced enough so you don't need giode. OR, damn lucky. That's why I never considered them essential. Btw, most usable MvPs are killable solo..so that whole party argument is irrelevant. Okay, I get that you are making guildmates to hunt such things when you don't have time...but I wouldn't dare to ask my friends if they could spend days hunting for me thing that they could use too.
And about Ice Pick, that thing isn't by any chance minimal drop. It's just like you'd be saying why do I mention Ulle's cap.

Btw, not every 1/1/1 server is official one. I've seen private servers with tis setting, even with rates LOWER that 1.

And, 3-10 card drop might seem easy...when you can spend like 8 hours each day on RO. But most people can't. Like me, for example, when I played 3x server a few years ago, I spent over month getting one Elder Willow card with my sage.

And, you wanna some proof? Well...I'm unable to play RO right now cause of having Linux installed right now, but when I will be playing again...we might meet on some server. I'll keep an EDP bottle with your name

Well all in all, I hate low rates now. It covered a total of 3months timespan in my life for nothing+expenses.
yes indeed, I would love to duel with you in any max level/rates.

Make a test server 

IMO, offense is the best defense so I usually go for +10 Main Gauche[4] and a +10 Blade[4]. Using 2 Blades would be better for damages but it takes off a lot of ASPD.

Well, it takes a lot of ASPD indeed. A whole lot. How would be offensive? SBK?

[Sarin]

Full crit, prolly. IMO if you want crit with sword+dagger, silver shotel is the way to go.

Is it effective even on 99/70? I believe it really s_cks the aspd. =/

[Sarin]

I dunno, he mentioned sword+dagger, I just added my opinion about it. Never tested tho.

Thinking about it...swords have sucky aspd, but better dmg vs. medium/large. And that +50 crit...meh, you could get decent crit without having to add points to luck.

[Jason]

Katars = good aspd , and x2 critical rating.

[Sarin]

yep. DD have better damage tho I think.

Not sure about all that 2x crit...it does not show at stat window, and I never observed increase in crit while having katar equipped.

[Jason]

Yes, it doesn't show in the stat, however, get 50 critical on your status window = 100 in real when using katar. That is the truth - based on eA's source.

If you're going for a crit build, which would deal max damage, use Katar(Jur for more slots). No point arguing there.

But IMO, I think its better to get an Incant Samurai Card(low low low chance but its second weakest next to Moonlight) and use Daggers+Blade. Does Doppleganger card works? That would be a useful card for ASPD. And use other ASPD/AGI adding items/food. Would be hard, but it would be worth a shot to try, maybe in a test server.

You mean to say Doppelganger's broken if it gives 190 aspd.

Not for those who are desperate to have some ASPD

Only some servers has doppel at 190 aspd (w/c not supposed to be).. Because ever since i experienced an offline server in my cafe years and years ago, doppel was broken already.

So, I finally made a major update to my guide. Added some basic tactical tips, corrected some typos and pretty much cleaned it up. I hope you will like it.

[blackgh05t]

Two things I just realized about your guide.

A) You make no mention of using an Ice Pick in your off hand in your SBK explanation area.
B) I don't think I saw the words "Combat Knife" anywhere. @.@;

[Sarin]

Combat knife: Oh yea, I kinda forget those lvl4 weapons that are available only via long quest or from bio MvPs. The knife itself is a good addition for "defensive" Meteor (the one where you need more reductions than hitting power, like when facing sacri pally), but it is purely defensive weapon. Ice pick is better for Meteor/DD/SB.

I didn't mention Ice Pick for SBK, because I consider SBK almost purely hunting skill. Yes, it is extremely effective IF you have full time Bragi. But only then, and you will then be bound to role of "fire support". No hunting down of lone enemies, no empbreaking, no assassinations of precast chars...kinda lose most of fun from playing SinX. If you want to be bound to this role, go ahead, take it. But using IP for hunting only...what a waste.

[fluidin]

You forgot Icepick SBK kills high DEF GR/DR users easily. Well, that's a really specific role, but still...

It's not bad to have a long range attack which has the potential to 1hko these pesky miniboss card users, especially if a High Priest is ard. Also, before you can say Sonic Blow, PALADIN. This pretty much pwns them.

Long range attacks are always so much more tactical/lower-risk as a cloaking class.
