First Job Skill Build
Lovepunani69: I created these builds based on information provided by strategywiki, not experience. Better builds will probably be released when the pirate job comes out, but until then here are mine.

Pirate (Infighter)
Damage Build

(Number of skill points) (Skill name) (Total number of skill points)

1 1st Strike (1)

1 Dash (1)

20 Quick Motion (20) (MAX)

6 Somersault Kick (6)

19 1st Strike (20) (MAX)

14 Somersault Kick (20) (MAX)

(Level) (Number of skill points) (Skill name) (Total number of skill points)

Job Advancement: 1 1st Strike (1) Level 11: 1 Dash (1), 2 Quick Motion (2)

Level 12: 3 Quick Motion (5)

Level 13: 3 Quick Motion (8)

Level 14: 3 Quick Motion (11)

Level 15: 3 Quick Motion (14)

Level 16: 3 Quick Motion (17)

Level 17: 3 Quick Motion (20) (MAX)

Level 18: 3 Somersault Kick (3)

Level 19: 3 Somersault Kick (6)

Level 20: 3 1st Strike (4)

Level 21: 3 1st Strike (7)

Level 22: 3 1st Strike (10)

Level 23: 3 1st Strike (13)

Level 24: 3 1st Strike (16)

Level 25: 3 1st Strike (19)

Level 26: 1 1st Strike (20) (MAX), 2 Somersault Kick (8)

Level 27: 3 Somersault Kick (11)

Level 28: 3 Somersault Kick (14)

Level 29: 3 Somersault Kick (17)

Level 30: 3 Somersault Kick (20) (MAX)

Reasoning: When you make your job advancement you get one SP. I suggest you put that in 1st Strike because level 1 1st Strike is cheap (3 mana) and fairly powerful (143% base damage). You should then put one point in Dash because it will give your character a speed boost. I suggest you then max out Quick Motion because if your Dex=Your Level your character will probably have really low accuracy and the extra avoidability will help you train. You should then put points into Somersault Kick until it's at level 6 (9 MP, Damage 75%, Attack up to 4 enemies). This means that you can keep fairly large crowds away from your character. Then you max out 1st Strike because it is your main attack skill. After you finish 1st Strike you finish Somersault Kick so you can take on large crowds.

Speed Build

(Number of skill points) (Skill name) (Total number of skill points)

1 1st Strike (1)

1 Dash (1)

20 Quick Motion (20) (MAX)

6 Somersault Kick (6)

19 1st Strike (20) (MAX)

9 Dash (10) (MAX)

5 Somersault Kick (11)

(Level) (Number of skill points) (Skill name) (Total number of skill points)

Job Advancement: 1 1st Strike (1) Level 11: 1 Dash (1), 2 Quick Motion (2)

Level 12: 3 Quick Motion (5)

Level 13: 3 Quick Motion (8)

Level 14: 3 Quick Motion (11)

Level 15: 3 Quick Motion (14)

Level 16: 3 Quick Motion (17)

Level 17: 3 Quick Motion (20) (MAX)

Level 18: 3 Somersault Kick (3)

Level 19: 3 Somersault Kick (6)

Level 20: 3 1st Strike (4)

Level 21: 3 1st Strike (7)

Level 22: 3 1st Strike (10)

Level 23: 3 1st Strike (13)

Level 24: 3 1st Strike (16)

Level 25: 3 1st Strike (19)

Level 26: 1 1st Strike (20), 2 Dash (3)

Level 27: 3 Dash (6)

Level 28: 3 Dash (9)

Level 29: 1 Dash (10), 2 Somersault Kick (8)

Level 30: 3 Somersault Kick (11)

Reasoning: This build is like the first one but instead of maxing out Somersault Kick you max out Dash. This means that your character can get around most maps faster than other first job characters (assuming their equips don't add too much speed). This will speed up your training because you can reach monsters and maps quicker.

Pirate (Gunslinger)
This is the recommended build for 1st job Gunslingers.


 * 20 Double Fire (MAX)
 * 10 Dash (MAX)
 * 20 Quick Motion (MAX)
 * 11 Somersault kick

The primary skill for Gunslingers is of course Double Fire. Maxing that out as soon as possible is a must. Somersault Kick is usable, but the damage with a gun is terrible. Quick motion is maxed out after Dash because Gunslingers don't need as much accuracy as Infighters. Dash is there for moving.
