EDIT: if you would prefer old school gameplay style follow Fuhreak suggestion, otherwise read bellow if you wanna join in for Reboot(this guide probably work for interactive worlds too but … (more)not 100% sure)....EDIT END
1-200 is tutorial levels now(can be done in 1 day AFTER you got your first char to lvl 200+ to benefit from events reward
200-260 is like lvl 30-120 from old days
260+ is more like 120-200 from old days
party quests are now dead
bossing been refined since old days and there no more knockback bs at lvl 120+
as soon as your lvl 200 do Ursus everydays during 2X mesos hours !....alway use your hightest level character for him ! the amount of mesos you get scale base on your char level....if you load slowly then opt for the solo option otherwise ursus generally die very quickly in party play....
party play is the optimal choice if you load fast as you get in and out in like 10-12 seconds instead of it taking 30-40 sec(solo play)
dying while soloing is fine as long as you dealth some dmg, you still earn your full mesos reward if u dealth the bare minimum needed
which is a rly small threshold to get it really
legion lvling is a must if you want to do harder bosses
Artifact System is a huge start up boost as a fresh new account if someone give you some bosses carries
unlock ALL these bosses ASAP if you wanna increase your legion progress greatly
Magnus, Arkarium, Pink Bean, Papulatus, Guardian Angel Slime, Root Abyss, Cygnus, Princess No
push it for lvl 210 for your first char to lvl 200..then get carried for Artifact points
b4 you ask any carry do some preparation !!!!!
1.Emblem: upgraded to unique with 30% Ignore Defense(thats a ust have for bossing)
2.Hyper Stats: make a bossing preset(balanced stats distribution !)
since your starting from scratch i recommend the following
set ALL these to lvl 5 to start up(Critical Rate, Critical Dmg, Ignore Defense, Dmg, Boss Dmg)
lvl it all evenly except Ignore Defense which should be 3 lvl ahead of your other stats !)
3.be lvl 210 since you have no legion power !, otherwise asking at lvl 200 would be fine
4.get All the above bosses listed unlock first
5.complete the lvl 200 quest call "collector: in search of legends"
6.unlock Echo of Hero skill(only doable at lvl 200)
Explorers: go to Orbis floor 8 to unlock it
Resistance: go talk to the old man in Edelstein to unlock it
Cygnus Knight: either Cygnus/Neinheart in Ereve or automaticly unlock(can't remember)
other classes: automaticly unlock i think,if i'am wrong google search it up
7. complete Dame Appropriation weekly quest for legion coin so you can buy dps buff item from the shop
FINAL STEPS
Final Step 1: purchase the following
Sayram Elixir,
Legion Might Ticket
, Cider(from Showa town) IF your a melee class
, Monster Park potion(Red & Green if your melee, Blue & Green if your a caster)
do NOT use those buffs for dailies bosses !, weekly bosses only !!!
Final Step 2: ask your carrier to carry you in chu chu pq b4 you guys start bossing, do NOT ask for Vanish pq !!!
getting your symbol from lvl 1/2 to lvl 3-4 is a major dps gain, so they might be willing to give it to you if you ask if can
be done b4 the bosses carries
Final Step 3: Carrier buff: have them provide you a guild blessing buff, if they can afford it they will bring you a Ursus buff otherwise they
wont buy 1 for you, dont ask to get Ursus buff, that item can't be bought in unlimited amount due to limited ressources
if they can afford they bring 1 for you, otherwise they wont
Procedure after dailies bosses are done: when the carries for the dailies bosses are over, head to Zakum map, click on someone sitting in a 275 chair,
give them a fame up to receive +50 ATT/MATT buff !! then its time for the weeklies bosses !!
NOTE 1: do NOT exit the Pignata map untill your carrier broke the pignata, if you do, you may not get credit for completing the boss
so even if you run bosses just for Artifact points, dont be hasty to leave even if thats a boss you can't get loots from
NOTE 2: do NOT break chests/loots pignata, let your carrier do it, if you break it you will anger your carrier and they gonna leave you
carrier should alway break them anyway so that their high drop rate apply to the pignata
so have your carrier start with the Artifact points bosses if they're cool doing them with you, OTHERWISE,
if your carrier is not cool with it, skip to the gearing up process
if they are cool with doing bosses only netting Artifact points, make sure to buy some Aurelia Elixir from the free market
it give you 1 extra life per fight
Chaos Slime-x-x-x-x-x-x-x(Artifact Points only, you wont have the dps to do 5% this early on)
Hard/Extreme Lotus-x-x-x(Artifact Points only, you wont have the dps to do 5% this early on)......(if you lucky u can get an Xtreme lotus carry but very unlikely)
Hard Damien-x-x-x-x-x-x-(Artifact Points only, you wont have the dps to do 5% this early on)
Chaos Papulatus-x-x-x-x-(Artifact Points only, you wont have the dps to do 5% this early on)
Aketchi Mitsuhide-x-x-x-x(Artifact Points only, you wont have the dps to do 5% this early on)
Normal Cygnus-x-x-x-x-x-(Artifact Points only, while u could do 5% this boss wont net you gear, so its preferable for carrier to end it quickly)
....not many carrier would run you for the above bosses but if your lucky they will
if you die stay dead as long as possible for the above bosses, no carrier enjoy having to restart
for gear gain have your carrier do these bosses in tHe following order
Normal Zakum(Crouch poke it so you dont 1 shot), let your carrier with 200%+ drop rate do the killing blow to ensure you get the accessories
Normal Hilla(some useful gear to increase your dps)...dps untill 94.9% then stop to let your carrier deliver the killing blow
Normal Magnus......dps untill 94.9% then stop to let your carrier deliver the killing blow
Normal Pink Bean.....your carrier destroy the bottom statues and let you kill the top 1 solo
Chaos Horntail.....bring the first head down to about 40-50%(not rly sure of the exact amount you need)....doing that will net you the 5% dps requirement
Normal Arkarium.....dps untill 94.9%......your carrier can,t see Arkarium hp bar unless they dps him, so let them know when you dealth your 5%
your carrier pets must be UNSUMMON for the ABOVE bosses otherwise they will steal the gear from you
for the bosses BELLOW your carrier can have their pets active.....also got to be done in a proper order
Chaos Von Bon(dps untill 94.9%)
Chaos Pierre(dps untill 92%, there a possibility that he heal, so cover for it !)
Chaos Crimson Queen(dps untill 94.9%,if she heal cause of mirror do an additionnal 3%)
Hard Magnus(dps untill 94.9%)
Chaos Zakum(for Artifact point OR accessory if normal didn,t drop both)(dps untill 94.9%)
Princess No(dps untill 92%, because she passively heal !)
Chaos Bean(have carrier kills the bottom 4 statues, then dps the top statue untill you bring it down to 12%)
note: if you can't dps Bean top statue well enough to bring it to 12%, your carrier should consider pushing when timer is at 18 mins left)
your dot need to be green after 2 of the 3 health bar of Bean been destroy, if it isn't you may end up with less than 5% dmg total and
get no loots
Vellum(dps untill 94.9%)

so what do you do after you got carried for Artifact Point & Gear ? level up your Artifact Crystal ofc !
so what stats do you want on your crystal statues ?
Statue 1&2 Dmg, Crit Rate, Ignore Defense
Statue 3&4 Boss Dmg, Crit Dmg, Attack Power
Statue 5&6 Drop Rate, All Stats, Buff Duration
Statue 7&8 personnal choices(Mesos, Exp,Summon Duration, Final Attack, Cooldown Bypass chance)
basicly 7&8 depend what classes you play(Main & Boss mules, or if you want farming gains over dps)
Statue 9, leftover
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
what crystal should i lvl up ?
Step 1:Statue 1&2 to lvl 4 first(lvled evenly)
Step 2:Statue 3&4 to lvl 4 next(lvl evenly as well)
Step 3:Statue 1&2 to lvl 5 afterward
Step 4:Statue 3&4 to lvl 5 to follow up
Step 5-8: i think you know what they are base on the above
lastly NX is gonna hand out 20 potions to skip 20 classes to lvl 200 in a soon to come patch(you got about 3 months to clear tutorial on 20 classes for it)
and i mean the actual tutorial(job quests....not the fact that 1-200 is praticly tutorial now)
among the classes i recommend to skip(aka feed these potions to) are the following
1.Kaiser
2. Wild Hunter
3. Kinesis
4. Demon Avenger
5. Corsair
6. Night Lord
7. Lara
8. Evan
9. Mechanic
10. Bishop
11. Blaze Wizard
12 Blaster
13. Hayato
14. Cannoneer
15. Pathfinder
16. Dark knight
17. Cadena
18. Ark
19. F/P Mage
20. Dual Blade
does that mean those classes are bad ? some yes, some no
so why this list ? multi-reasons(each classes has its own reason)
1.very hard to play
2. clunky OR bad during 1-3 jobs
3. bad at mobbing
4. weak dps untill fifth job
5. Lara is only there because i hate its rng factor even if its dps output is great
Khali-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- mid-difficulty
Buccaneer-x-x-x-x- super brain dead(Easy)
Night Walker-x-x-x mid-difficulty
Demon Slayer-x-x- brain dead(Easy)
Mercedes-x-x-x-x- mid-difficulty
Kain-x-x-x-x-x-x-x between mid and hard difficulty
Ark-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- Hard difficulty
Dawn Warrior-x-x brain dead(Easy)
..............note: while i experienced bossing on all of them, not all of them are my current boss mules
and why that ? because i'am progressing my legion with efficiency, so some of my current boss mules are classes i do not enjoy
and as you notice, i dont rly enjoy classes that are rly rly hard to play(as in too much for my hands skills)
so among those very difficult to play classes are
Hayato, Evan, Adele, F/P Mage, Demon Avenger, Blaster, Luminous, Hoyoung, Lara, Illium
Evan is more of a memory skill than hands skill issue and the only class of that kin
Note: there some classes i would actually enjoy if not for certain minor issue they have(class bellow)
Kanna: even with Skill transparency, her skills clog up the screen(make boss mechanics impossible to see)..would be nice if were put behind boss layers
Blaze Wizard: gets rooted in place which make dodging boss attacks sometime impossible
T-Breaker: same issue as Blaze Wizard
Xenon: same issue as Blaze Wizard
Night Lord: i can't stand their upjump
what are the best bossing classes ?, i would recommend viewing youtube videos for that ;P, however beware that best bossing class
doesn't mean its a class you would enjoy or would have the hands skill for it
i know Duky and Rathgms have been doing boss ranking for classes......not sure if there are other youtubers doing that...possibly 1 or 2 others but i can't remember
use the skills Magic Guard, it will transfer the dmg you take to your mana
also i can't recommend Bishop as a first char
normal 140 armor(Pensalir) will drop from mobs lvl 130+
… (more)lvl 150 Armors can be acquired from Chaos Root Abyss bosses(lvl 180) or from hyper burn events
here my recommendation(this is part of my written guide although i yet to publish the full thing)
anyway eventually you want all classes to 200 but if you want to make solid progress here you go
0-Evan(Special)..for Evan you want to create it when there an event which has a lvling map that
you can use a rune buff inside...otherwise do not rush this class too early(the Average Exp gain OVER 15 MINUTES
is 13.5% at rank 3)...100% Exp over 54-126 extra seconds granted by the link is equal to 6.66% to 13.5% over 15 mins
so unless there a good event that can make use of it create it in the order i listed it
1-Wind Archer(lvl 150)...+30 ATT/M-ATT acc wide(Empress Blessing) + 7 ATT/M-ATT(Link) + 40 Dex(Legion Effect)
2-Mercedes(lvl 120).......+15% exp(Link) + 2% skill cooldown reduced(Legion Effect)
3-Zero(lvl 140)...........+4% Exp(Legion Effect)...Zero start at lvl 100?...basicly free huge progress to unlock your legion earlier
4-Ark(lvl 140)............+11% dmg(Link) +40 Str
5-Demon Avenger(lvl 120)..+10% dmg(Link) + 2% boss dmg(Legion Effect)
6-Kanna(lvl 120)..........+10% dmg(Link) + 2% Boss dmg(Legion Effect)
7-Hoyoung(lvl 140)........+14% dmg on first hit + 10% ignore Defense(Link) + 40 Luk(Legion Effect)
8-Hayato(140).............+25 All Stats + 15 ATT/M-ATT(Link) + 3% Crit dmg(Legion effect)......
8-Hayato-->Mega Burn it to 150 to not suffer !!!
9-Phantom(120)............+15% Crit Rate(Link Skill)
10- Lynn(140).............+10% Crit Rate + 10% boss dmg(Link Skill) +3% Ignore Defense(Legion Effect)
11-EVAN(130) OR 210(if you got lvling pot to feed it)...burn it if its too hard for you to play it
12-Marksman(lvl 140).......+3% Crit Rate(Legion Effect) + small Crit Rate(Link)
13-Night Lord(lvl 140).....+3% Crit Rate(Legion Effect)
14-Luminous(lvl 120).......+15% Ignore Defense(Link) + 20 Intel(Legion Effect)
from this point you got your Core for Links & Legion Effect
i would not recommend focusings effects for end-game from here on(aka for chars lvl 200+)
...its not efficient for lvl 1-140 progress
but if you rly are impatient for bossing then do wtv you please
15-Buccaneer(140)..........+20-70 All Stats(70 with 3 copies of the Link) + 40 Str(Legion Effect)
16-Cannoneer(140)..........+20-70 All Stats(70 with 3 copies of the Link) + 40 Str(Legion Effect)
17-T-Breaker(140)..........second Cygnus Link(stack with Wa one) + 40 Str(Legion effect)
18-Adele(140)..............+40 Str(Legion Effect)
19-Kaiser(150).............+40 Str(Legion Effect)....Mega Burn it ! 1st-3rd Job is awful !
20-Paladin(140)............+40 Str(Legion Effect)
21-Hero(140)...............+40 Str(Legion Effect)
22-Shade(140)..............+3% Crit dmg(Legion Effect)
23-Demon Slayer(120).......+15% Boss dmg(Link Skill)
24-Dawn Warrior(140).......another upgrade to the Cygnus Link + 1000 HP(Legion Effect)
25-Bowmaster(140)..........+40 Dex(Legion Effect)...+rank 3-4 Link(small amount of Crit Rate)
26-Pathfinder(140).........+40 Dex(Legion Effect)...+rank 5-6 Link(small amount of Crit Rate)
27-Angelic Buster(140).....+40 Dex(Legion Effect)....(dmg% Link for lvl 200&260 burst skills)
28-Kain(140)...............+40 Dex(Legion Effect)
29-Corsair(120)............Link Skill Rank 5-6 + 8% Summons Durations
30-Wild Hunter(140)........+20% chance to deal 12% additionnal damage....Mega Burn It !(1st-3rd job is clunky)
31-Blaster(140)............+3% Ignore Defense(Legion Effect)
32-Khali(140)..............+40 Luk(Legion Effect) + 5% dmg(Link)
33-Night Walker(140).......+40 Luk(Legion Effect) + Cygnus Link upgraded again
34-Shadower(140)...........+40 Luk(Legion Effect)
35-Cadena(140).............+40 Luk(Legion Effect)
36-Dual Blade(140).........+40 Luk(Legion Effect)
37-Xenon(140)..............+20 Str,Dex,Luk(Legion Effect)
38- finish lvling these classes left at 120 to 140)....so
Mercedes, Demon Avenger, Corsair, Luminous
39-Mechanic(140)...........+15% Buffs Duration(Legion Effect)
40-Kinesis(140)............+4% Crit dmg(Link) + 40 Intel(Legion Effect)
41-Lara(140)...............+5% dmg(Link) + 40 Intel(Legion Effect)...if you hate rng burn it
42-Blaze Wizard(140).......final Cygnus Link upgrade + 40 Intel(Legion Effect)
43-Illium(140).............+40 Intel(Legion Effect)
44-I/L Mage(140)...........+40 Intel(Legion Effect) + Link(need all 3 explorer mages at 120 for it to be good)
45-Bishop(140).............+40 Intel(Legion Effect) + Link(need all 3 explorer mages at 120 for it to be good)
46-Battle Mage(140)........+40 Intel(Legion Effect)
47-lvl up Kanna from 120 to 140
48-F/P Mage(120)...........Link(for the last explorer mage link upgrade)
49-Aran(140)...............70% chance to heal 6% HP
50-Mihile(140)..............+1000 HP(Legion Effect)
51-Dark Knight(140).........+4% HP(Legion Effect)
52-finish lvling Phantom & Demon Slayer to 140
alright....next up what class should be first to 200-210 ? once you got all at 140(except F/P)
you wont need +main stats anymore for the highters level but your gonna need end-game effect fully powered up
53-Evan(210)
54-Phantom(210 ?????(only if you need it to get 98%+ crit rate))
55-Demon Avenger(210)
56-Ark(210)
57-Marksman(200)
58-Night Lord(200)
59-Luminous(210)
60-Shade(200)
61-Hayato(200)...only with lvling potion or lvling event map..not worth suffering
62-Demon Slayer(200)
63-Mercedes(210)
64-Kanna(200)
65-Wild Hunter(200)
66-Zero(200)
67-Lynn(200)
68-Blaster(200)
69-Corsair(200)
70-Mechanic(200)....only with lvling potions or lvling event map..not worth suffering
71-Angelic Buster(210)
remaining 140....wtv order you wanna do them
most classes should be at or near 100% crit rate at that point anyway so
only do Phantom to 210 if the classes your maining need that link(bellow 88% crit rate) (less)
press the profession key shortcut...go to profession tab
edit: also dislike that its no longer in the char info tab...whole ui change irritate me..the only positive outta it is that you … (more)can now inspect other players gear and dps range...(get an idea of how much dps you can look forward in the futur) (less)
