Skill Builds

Since there are only three skills, not many skill builds may be made. Also, most skills are relatively ineffective past the beginner stage. However, depending on the class a beginner will be, some alternatives are better than others. Still, Beginner SP cannot be used on any other skills so there is little reason not to use these points.

Stat builds

The following are three distinct Beginner stat builds. They are all similar to Warrior builds. Note that, after the Big Bang patch, the new accuracy formula requires only 226 accuracy to hit any monster at your level 100% of the time. Once accuracy = 226, AP should only be added to STR.

High STR Beginner

This build focuses on Strength due to the lack of available weapons. Strength must be increased to match that of a Warrior's.

• STR: All other Ability Points that do not go into DEX.
• DEX: 2 points above current level.
• INT: Add nothing.
• LUK: Add nothing.

This build will level the quickest.

DEXless Beginner

A Beginner who only puts in STR

• STR: Continuously add.
• DEX: Add nothing.
• INT: Add nothing.
• LUK: Add nothing.

This is the hardest build for beginners, however it also provides the strongest damage for beginners. It is suggested that you provide armor with high accuracy and DEX to make up for it.

Try getting dex sauna robe and some acc wg.

High DEX Beginner

This build focuses on Dexterity to be primarily accurate and evasive. Some Beginners who use this build incorporate LUK for more avoidability.

• STR: Player's choice; should remain around current level.
• DEX: All other Ability Points that do not go into STR/LUK.
• INT: Add nothing.
• LUK: Add nothing (may incorporate some for extra avoidability).

This build will level slower than the first, but will be able to hit almost anything.

"Warrior" Beginner

This build is exactly the same as a Warrior's build. Note: the player may want to take a few points out of DEX and add it into STR so that they do not fall behind in damage.

• STR: All other Ability Points that do not go into DEX.
• DEX: Double your current level.
• INT: Add nothing.
• LUK: Add nothing.

Monster Masterer

A Beginner who specializes in killing one monster

• STR: Add until you can 1HKO it.
• DEX: Only add Until you can hit it 70-80% of the time, then add the rest later (unless you stay on Maple Island, then add nothing).
• INT: Add nothing.
• LUK: Add last until it can't hit you.

Another idea for DEX is to keep it 10 above your current level for stable damage and good accuracy.
