SinX lowrate guide

[Sarin]

GR/Deviling users are so easy to kill...for SinX, no matter what build, as easy or easier to kill than ED users.

Like I said, for SBK to be as effective as other builds you need full time Bragi. It's not bad to have one such SinX in guild, if you have a Bragi bard, but he's about as fun to play as precasting wizard.

[Mortiik]

By the way, you might wanna add hill winds as another leveling spot (LHZ up up left)

[Sarin]

True...been some time, good for 70-80ish levels if you have only earth katar.

[Mortiik]

If you have to do the job quest, it's not bad to spend some time outside the temple to gain some initial job levels..
...aaand the sandmen there drop earth katar and are mobbable..woo what a coincidence

anyway, there's always an endow possibility..

Nice Guide 

[la bella vita]

If there is no reseter on your server, leveling guide for trans part will be of no use for no agi builds.

What if the server that I am playing in does not have a reseter? Could you suggest other ways? I am following your katar semi-agi build, btw.

[Sarin]

then there is just one way...find some char simulator, find out what equip you will get, simuate the exact stats of you future SinX, and then just be careful while distributing stat points. Semi-agi build can still handle GTing mobs, while not as effectively as full agi, but will do.

thank you for contributing this nice guide

Lixious , dont teach how a SinX have to do on a GVG , or its function ... just tell to equip your STR gear and go.

ALICE WITH CRAMP FOR GODSAKE , NOT THAT CRAP OF VANBERK AND ULLES
and have a fb right by yout side ...

I don't like the Tarou+Cramp combo. Vanberk+Mantis card gives an equal amount, and these are hunted more than Crap cards and thus easier to get.

Though, personally, I prefer Vesper Cores. 3 Str and 10 Atk vs. 4 Str from a Ring+Mantis means I have to put two more points in Str, but I'll have more Atk which is great when your damage is as much multiplied as Assasin Crosses do thanks to all those bonusses.

[Sarin]

Speaking about vesper cores etc, I prefer using Giant Whisper card, thus I am deprived of +2 str bonus from Aliot, so if I use Nightmare card too (I got used to it lately, since some people started to use sleep armor), my STR bonus doesn't allow me to wear vesper cores...maybe one, but I'd have to let go another two points of vit.
Vanberk and Mantis is much better than Cramp+Tarou. Allows you to switch headgears without loosing too much str, and when you have to do some empbreaking, then you will see the real strength of Vanberk card.
FB is, of course, used in some cases, but I rarely need to use defensive equip.Speaking of Ulle, those stat bonuses, if you translate them into stat points saved, are worth quite a lot. Alice is, of course, option if available, but not every server has them, and you have to use nightmare card with it...and your vit will go down again cause lack of stat bonuses.

The Ultimate Fail Sonic Blow Build (low rate version)

Fix'd.

Too much dex, too low vit.

Equip is totally wrong...some flee is good to have, but is unreliable to use. You should always have at least enough hitpoints to take your own, 40% reflected SB. Too low vit means you are easily stunned, and therefore against good people, dead. And meh...this guide is old, I never got to update it.

[tinoyeah]

-why should i put in to vit anyways. . if your against a party your gonna die anyways. .
-even if its 40 vit up. . you still gonna get stunned. . so be it. . die
-reflects??. .this build stays away from paladins. . why should we even hit them. .thats suicide
-50 dex?? lol. . how are you gonna hit snipers? stalkers? sinx?
-sinx should do wat they do best. .and that is to evade. .thus high evade equips
-LKs SinXs cant hit u. .and even snipers cant. although rare
-u cant evade asura/AD/mage spells. .oh well. .dead. .
-this build needs fast hands and 10 yrs of RO experience to work. .
-if u just play sinx in theory. .and not in game. .then this build is not for you. .

Sorry, gonna have to agree with Sarin.. but this isn't an appropriate build if you are sizing up versus more experienced players.
VIT patches that stun hole, and also gives you more tank-ability which is very vital in high level play..., if you get stunned, good players know and will abuse this fact.

Anything that is a Sniper/stalker/SinX with agi, and assume that his AGI is so high to dodge 90% of your attack he/she has probably sacrifice so much VIT.. you could always just tag to a weapon like triple cecil bloody / or even quad mummied sb, and if all else fails.. one gorgon shield tag status or x status makes them history.

All in all, 50 is a solid number for dex, some go higher like 60, 65, that's acceptable too.. but it should not come to the point that you have to sacrifice a decent stun immunity.

You can evade asura with hide, and that goes the same for non-insta mage spells.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3nH5mMNdAg - old video made for someone who truly believed you could not hide-dodge asuras.


overall, any player that can't hit a 60-70 agi SinX + flee gear with a character like LK/Sniper is not a decent player.
You will get statused, stunned and abused by the holes in your build by any decent player.


ps:
Paladins are outmatched by any decent SinX player.
