according to this update, UGW (untransformed gigas wave) is much stronger than final transform, but transformed damage increased as well.
rough-dirty estimate;
UGW increase 50%
TGW increase ~30% and final form increase 20% = ~50%

Question:the attack speed difference means that untransformed dps/dpm is still stronger (larger) than transformed?
i hate that transforming is mostly useless. right now i only use it for teleporting while attacking, and atk through damage reflect
[MENTION=535]JoeTang[/MENTION]; when can we expect tables to reflect future updates?

Rolleyes sometimes i feel like the only one still standing behind kaiser and everyone else jumped to stronger warriors

I updated the Warrior tables for the newest information. I think I put Aran's RED for GMS in there when you guys don't have that yet.

The Giga Slasher damages are switched. The untransformed does 280%x9, the transformed one does 330%x11.

I'm afraid I don't know what they changed with the Morph Gauge. Someone will have to test that themselves. The charge for attacks was unchanged though.

oh wait.... +_+ transform will be better? finally. i think the morph gauge refers to how many attacks needed to fill. the last gauge takes quite a bit longer than the others.

Does "newest information" mean GMS RED? as the title suggests? or up to KMS current released & active patch?

Made it to level 100 after so many years and now I'm having trouble becoming a Dark Knight.

What's a good way for a Berserker to fight Griffey/Manon? I haven't tried Manon yet, but I've heard Griffey is the hardest, so that Manon wouldn't be too much trouble if I can beat Griffey.

I heard that I should be using War Leap away from Griffey when it is about to use one of their skills. (Generally the 1/1 skill?)
However, my attacks are really slow (I haven't used Booster, so...), and I'm pretty chaotic/messy when it comes to moving around, plus I get a bit laggy.

Another thing I should probably note is that I'm a high dex (89) warrior that became inactive during the time of "All AP reset scrolls" or w/e it's called. Managed to use one reset scroll that was given to me though, thus the odd dex number.

Is it even possible to make a Berserker with no points in Booster? They have that many excess skills?

I don't have a DrK but, in general, warrior strategy against those kinds of bosses is to Rush them to the edge of the map, stand on top of them ("hug" them) so you take touch damage instead of magical attacks (including 1/1, dispell, etc), and be ready to use a potion (Elixir, Power Elixir, or Ginger Ale (buy from the potion seller in NLC). Don't bother with anything that doesn't heal at least half your HP in one gulp) if you do get hit by 1/1.

I've maxed Booster already, just that I never had any reason to use it before, lol. I remembered about it shortly ago and tried using it on the boss fight, but I ended up spamming the world map instead of my 'A' button attack, which in turn lagged me to my death. Did some reorganizing on my key settings now...

Touch damage does prevent 1/1? Sweet, thanks!

My HP potions are wastes of space from quests, so I'm going to buy better ones once I run out.

if you deal enough damage, lamancha on a corner should keep the boss pinned too. add that to standing on top of it and you should be golden

I always thought by not holding that skill, would lead to stronger attacks (though reading the percentage says otherwise?) from my experience in MCE. I Tried holding La Mancha in the corner against Griff and it worked! Only got the 1/1 thing once by mistake, but I survived and killed it. Shine

spamming the throw is better damage, but spinning it is good for knockback.

congratulations on 4th job, now you'll never ever EVER use lamancha again, except for "fun" and maybe hitting behind you once in a new moon.

edit: gratz on DrK, any questions on functionality and stuff just tag me up to get my attention faster, it's literally all the enjoyment i get from this game nowadays

Ah that's nice to know, better late than never lolol. Though I will probably still use that skill from time to time. I think my Dark Impale is weaker at the moment. Thanks! I'm not sure how to tag people unless it's just by saying their name like ShinkuDragon, though this is going to notify you anyway because of the quote, I'd assume haha.

doesn't take long for DI to out-do it, as for quotting:

write an @
then the name of the person
and finish with a ;

[MENTION=1959]Dragon[/MENTION];

and you're done.

jump-throwing lamancha looks pretty cool, but that's pretty much all i use it for, soul driver is better range in both directions so i just use that.

I only went by the percentages. Goggleemoticon

I mobbed on a few Shrooms earlier, and... So many numbers....

Yes, you need to multiply the percentages by the number of hits, to know which skill does more damage.

I'm an unfunded kaiser with chitty equips.
If I want to be godly what equipment should I be aiming for?
I will also have access to 4bil soon from a quitting friend. What should I do with dem mesos?

When is an okay level to fight, mainly solo Rolleyes, Pianus? I ran into a quest where I have to get something from that fish. I was able to find Pianus after a few channel switches, tried fighting it a couple of times, and I barely do anything to it. Frown

Seems like something I'd need a party for, but I'm usually not a party person, nor are there people I can party with. There's probably my guild leader, but eh.

Pianus has a "weapon cancel" buff, during which you can only hit 1's on it no matter how strong you are.
Check your progress on it when the buff is off. You shouldn't have too much trouble even at 100.

I'll try again eventually. Wondering if I can check without lagging, my attack loves to lag me as soon as I start using the skill.

Also, I have around 468 str and 89 dex without additions, 569 str and 170 dex with(level 107 now). Or should being level 100 alone not have have any problems?

Accuracy is solely determined by level now, I'm afraid every point in dex is wasted.
Either way, you should be fine at level 100.
