*'''Scatter Shot''': Level 16


Scatter Shot is replaced in second job, so it does not need to me maxed. Pirate Training can be moved up if you need DEX to equip a weapon and want to keep your base DEX at 4 putting all AP into STR. Mastery is first to improve stability and raise minimum damage, followed by Barrel Bomb as it hits 8 with 100% knock back when maxed. Max Critical Fire for more big numbers. Maxing Cannon Booster and Monkey Magic together is convenient to use on a macro. Scatter Shot works fine with only 1 SP, so you could save it for last.

Beginner

AP Distribution

Like Warriors, DEX has a limited role in determining accuracy, but level has a far greater effect. For this reason, little to no AP should be spent in DEX, depending on funding. Cannoneers should apply all AP on STR which is their main damage stat. To use most equipment and weapons, the requirement is DEX = level, but level 10 Pirate Blessing gives 15 DEX, second job Pirate Training adds 30 DEX and Monkey Magic adds 20 DEX, so you will have minimum 69 DEX by level 70 without equipment or putting any AP into it.

Skill Build

Considering Recovery only heals about 2HP/second when fully leveled, most people will not select this.

  • Level 2: +1 Three Snails (1)
  • Level 3: +1 Three Snails (2)
  • Level 4: +1 Three Snails (3)
  • Level 5: +1 Nimble Feet (1)
  • Level 6: +1 Nimble Feet (2)
  • Level 7: +1 Nimble Feet (3)

At level 10, after you job advance to Pirate, you will get 3 more skills in the beginner tab automatically.

  • Level 10: +1 Master of Swimming (1)
  • Level 10: +1 Pirate Blessing (1)
  • Level 10: +1 Master of Organization (1)

At level 30, after you job advance to Cannoneer, you will get 1 more point in Master of Organization automatically.

  • Level 30: +1 Master of Organization (2)

Note: Level 10 Pirate Blessing is a Link Skill, but it can not be given to another character on your account until you reach level 70.

Cannoneer

Scatter Shot is replaced in second job, so it does not need to be maxed. Pirate Training can be moved up if you need DEX to equip a weapon and want to keep your base DEX at 4, putting all AP into STR. Mastery is first to improve stability and raise minimum damage, followed by Barrel Bomb as it hits 8 with 100% knock back when maxed. Max Critical Fire for more big numbers.
