Beast Tamer discussion thread

Same here. I'm so afraid to put SP into anything.

I don't know what to do without my formulaic job system. This freedom is stifling me

Don't save for hawk or cat, they don't have decent attacks, at all.


Cat as a secondary only, EVER.

I'm fairly sure the leopard summons persist, and the fire DOT and Cat buffs (not passives) too.

The Fire DOT persists and will show damage, but it will not register the damage.

I've only put points in the bear so far and i'm levelling fine but i'm not a high level so i don't know if it will get worse.

:/ can't get the reset thin in the 3rd gift tab. Oh wells. I really wouldn't mind resetting into Bear Mode for EVO but I can make due.

So I went full JAGUAR mode. The Dance skill allows for invincibility frames that move you across the screen, taking 8 mobs with you and hitting them three times with each dance. Used that religiously to train. I'm 111 now. Might reset when I get to 120 to see what's up with the other ones.

I feel like points placed on Macho Dance and Slam past 1 was such a waste. I used it more for getting up platforms than attacking. That's 38 points I could have placed somewhere.

See what happens when you get the illusion of choice?

People are stopping at level 120 meanwhile there's a beast tamer critical ring event going on

It's only an illusion when you didn't really want it in the first place (regardless of how much you claim to want it). The fact that there's already cries for builds means that some people never really wanted it in the first place. I know I'll enjoy doing whatever the hell I want with my BT, regardless of what conclusions everyone else comes to. Do what makes you happy, not what others think is best; at least that's my motto in most scenarios.

Meanwhile I'm surprised there's not already a Lv.200+ video, especially considering all the recent EXP farming discoveries.

lol at bear hammer slam. I actually giggled for a good 3 minutes while I was using it (was using Leopard skills up to 100), it's hilariously strong.

pomegranate's OP at evo world, got from 100-110 in one half-hour thingy. Got to 118 and I want to stay up and do the last half hour for that sweet 120, but I have work tomorrow

it only gets better and better since you will start doing evo or dimpq

Quests aren way too annoying to do. Leopard = hayato. Ultimate for leopard sucks horribly. I'll probably do MPE until i hit 130 now I"m at 120 then forget I ever played the class.

It took me about 14hours on 2x, with hs and kanna mules, to reach lvl 200.
No party play exp abuse or leechers, solo all the way.

That's awesome! I am only level 145 right now, hoping for 200 tomorrow or the next day.

Grats sim!! Didn't know that you have sp account

This like your 29th or 30th 200?

Am I the only one pissed as all f'uck that you have to continuously rapidly tap the paw/furious key JUST to keep it up? Like seriously wth. How can you even boss this way? So freaking bogus. I'm so livid right now cuz I was REALLY loving this until this comes up. I thought yeah.... I can deal with paw swipe being non-keydown but furious strikes? HELL NO. I wanna flip a table now.

If you have a controller and X Padder, you can set the attack key to toggle and rapid fire so it does it for you.

I've found that Furious Strikes + Trumpet lets you have insane map control (and monster respawn) on flat-ish maps. I've never leveled faster than this (tip: Magatia C-2 - trumpet under the mid-right platform and furious strikes under the mid-left platform. Li'l Fort under the middle platform if you have it. I was leveling through 65-85 in way under a minute each level.)

Question: can you switch to cat mode just to use Meow Card, then switch back to bear mode, or will the buff disappear? I'm thinking I'm going to spec into cat just for that if it stays.

According to razmos if it's a buff, it stays

I'm not 100% certain though. I'll find out for sure in a little while.
