MapleStory/Aran/Builds

AP Distribution
Unlike Adventurers, Aran is a straightforward job that has no class tree. Therefore, you don't need to plan your stats in advance (like a Beginner might).

Regular
Aran are very similar to warriors. You should have at least 1.5~ 2.0 times more Dexterity than your level, so if you are at level 25 you should have 40~50 dexterity. Add everything else to STR.

Since the Aran quests are required to kill monsters that are similar to your level, or higher, the accuracy gained from Dexterity helps Aran complete advancement quests (skill and job) more quickly.

Aran don't need INT or LUK. If you apply your stats correctly, there should be little problem killing monsters.

Dexless
Dexless Arans are a real challenge, and requires lots of money. A dexless Aran means to put all their APs into Strength, and never, or put very little DEX.

Since Aran cannot possibly attack strong monsters without DEX (becoming a problem when making a high combo), instead of not putting DEX, DEX scrolls will be needed. Lots of them. Possibly for all your equipment, and max them out if possible. Now this requires a lot of luck, since scrolls can fail, and you can only do this 5 or 7 times. And there's a difference between a 100% dex scroll working at all times and a 10% dex scroll working at all times, since a 10% scroll will have more benefits if it works.

If this is done successfully, a Dexless Aran will deal much more damage compared to a regular one.

First Job Skill Build
Unlike other jobs, Aran have very few skills to choose from, and because there is no 'weapon mastery' skill, Arans need a lot of MP pots.
