Battle mage guide

Blood drain is not as useless as you make it out to be. 13 BD/10 Booster will suffice. Thats 4% drain and 60 second booster. I haven't used HP potions in the longest time, even with the nerfed drain.

I was following your 3rd job build, and I wasn't happy with that. I used a full SP reset from a recent event and maxed out Teleport mastery right after 5x Blow. After that I did Battle Boost. Battle boost provides a serious increase to damage and speeds up training considerably. With max teleport mastery and Battle Boost, I opt for teleporting like the fist of the north star and spamming 5x blow as opposed to pulling with dark chain. Its faster.

Conversion comes too early. I can recover any touch damage in a single 5x blow w/ drain. But then again I don't do much other than grind. Maybe it'll be useful in another situation.

I'll probably max advanced chain after battle boost.

70: 1 Adv Dark Chain, 2 5x Blow.
71-76: 5x blow
77-80: Teleport Mastery.
81: 1 Teleport Mastery, 2 Battle Boost.
82-86: Battle Boost.
87: 1 Battle Boost, 2 Chains.

I threw a point into Dark Lightning somewhere in there for shits and giggles. Its pretty cool. Helps when mechanics roll up into B-3 drill arming my balls off.
