Battle mage guide

I swear I dont think ghost pirates and phantom watch drops them -_- ..

but i did have a friend said he got one from ghost pirates in 2 lvls worth of training

=(

Does lvl 1 Energize reduce much dmg? I know it increases MD & WD by +15%. At what lvl, if one exists, will this skill become important?

I never payed attention to the damage change when I added a point into it personally. Currently I don't use HP potions at all while training(teleport mastery, finishing, and blood drain take care of that) so i'd rather not have a point into it. We'll see if the trend continues when I switch training locations. (Didn't have to use potions at Duals or Werewolves either)

I don't think energize does that much of a difference later on. I had lvl 5 for some time but didn't really notice much, it helps if you're at early 4th job lvls but mid and late game it becomes not much of a difference, its just something you'd max for the sake of extra hp. I even did dual pirates with lvl 0 energize and didn't need to use any hp pots. Once I moved to Lycanthropes, I started to have to use honsters because my reapers would be all over the map making lycants summon free werewolves for me (yes reaper is maxed...). Thanks to them attacking, I also get hit once I jump down and thrown across the floor. Currently, my BaM is lvl 147 and I'm not recovering nearly fast enough hp so I do use pots even with maxed energize.

Thanks Twilight & Ultimax21.

It looks like stance might take priority over Energize.

A fairly good reason to use Reapers, though I would say ADC is more important in the long run.

That happens to me regularly while training, even before I maxed it. Decided a while ago to not max Adv Blue. Actually wish I had more in Drain, lol

More on bossing. Would be helpful at Manon/Griffey. I still can't handle Manon at MLTC though.

Note: Neo City=horrible spawn.

I wish I could just get into Neo City to do the quests. I don't know anyone else that can go in there with me with the stupid party requirement.

Does red color mean unconfirm?
Just want to confirm that Phantom Watch is not Grim Phatom Watch ?

Red color means that mob drops more than one BtM book.

For those of you who don't want to waste a Potential Scroll and possibly a Blue Czar, it's profitable to head to Peach Monkeys in the mid-90s and hunt down a Blue Czar. Took me about 20-25 minutes on 1.2x Drop to find one, so nothing as rage inducing as looking for a Pyogo at Nintos.

Now I'm really curious what monsters drop the rest of the 110 mage EQs. Hunting King Sage Cat for the hat is the last thing I want to do. He hurts like hell.

If it's not on the list of mobs it can drop from on that site it means it doesn't drop or it drops from mobs in Edelstein, or World Tour.

^Basically, this.

Still handy to have a list to keep track of what drops those equips, though, as easy as it is to level a Battle Mage to those levels.

Aqua Road is a plague to us as it is to Arans! Hell if I used Finisher while sinking, I freeze until I touch the ground, or after something like 1.5seconds of delay! Got used to it after switching to Dark Lightning training instead of Blowing (and to stop jumping, because I always jump-attack). Silver slime... man... Tera Forest party requirement is such an ass.

Hadriel

You can't use finisher while in the air, its a ground type only skill. It won't work in water unless you're on a platform, this applies to anti gravity places too.

wat happen to body boost?
