Ask a Soul Master/Dawn Warrior Thread

Yeah, I'd just remake it. Warriors don't need DEX at all anymore because of the accuracy system introduced with BB. Lv51 isn't hard to get to, and you're losing 76 STR which is a lot of damage you should have.

are vikerolas the next best thing after jesters or am i stuck at jesters until the end of time?

Im pretty sure jesters are the best til you can go to mp3(outside of golden temple). But if you really just want to leave jesters you can head to magatia in mid 8x and either go to roids or go to the lower level stuff outside(sand rats i think? lvl 83 mob maybe its scorpions)

mp3 on scania should be fun. did they ever add the mini dungeon or no?

nope. its actually not too bad if you are on now or earlier.

Gallos are a great alternative to MP3 and Jesters. 1300 exp and holy weak too.

I went straight to Sand Rats/Scorpions at level 70. I was there until about level 78 when I switched to Dark Sand Dwarves. Then Roid at 85 and Gobies at level 92. With the completely broken power of Soul Driver, the amount of hits you deal makes it very easy to level on monsters several levels above yours. I gained a full level every 15-30 minutes until level 100 or so when it started to slow down. At level 107 at Gobies, I still get a level every 40-50 minutes. Once I get ACA, I plan on going to MDTs (level 116) and finishing it out there. I don't know how funded you are, but all my DW had was a 10 attack glove, 101 attack Rohen, about 6% STR gear, a Z.Helm, and a BB ring. I'm sure Jesters are faster in the beginning, but rather than fight for a channel, I found a different way to train.

I just went for a channel with a mine hacker on it... Driver KSes them easily and still gets good exp <_<

as Dawn Warrior (II), seeing Soul Blade 21 vs Soul Blade 30 with 11% damage difference, I may cap it at 21...
with dex-less and fairy blessing, I can make it 70 pretty quick, I guess?

or does Soul Blade still useful in some situation after 70ish?

Nope. Soul Driver replaces it on 4 mobs right at level 70. Due to the fact that it hits multiple times, it too makes training easier than Soul Blade since it has a higher chance to deal damage. I was at Scorpions/Sand Rats at level 70 and I still got a level every 20-30 minutes (Jesters were too crowded on a regular basis).

Quick Training Guide for 2nd and 3rd job?

:X

I can help you out from 51 and onwards since that's when I had a DW after BB.

51-60 Jesters
60-65 Robos/Master Robos
65-70 Area boss quests, KFT quests, don't remember what monster it was
70-100 Jesters (What I did, anyway)
100-104 Klocks
105-108 Captain MD

That's as far as I've gotten.

Why not Gobies? I went there at around level 92 and was getting a level every half hour. It slowed down to a level an hour at around 107-110. As for 110+, I'd say Death Teddies and Master Death Teddies. DTs are fairly easy to navigate with the portal in the center of the map. Use it, clear the left, drop down, use it, clear the right, drop down, repeat. MDTs is fairly simple. Drop down, clear all platforms, use the portal on the bottom right, repeat. I miss a good 30% of the time on MDTs right now (6 levels lower than them), but once I start getting closer to them, I can 3 hit kill them (out of the 4 Driver hits).

I didnt really like mdts or dts, map was too big, DGP is perfect for dawn warriors tho at lvl 114-120, just jump down, driver, jump down, driver, etc. Going to second gobies, I didnt know about them on my dw, but love them on my wk. bone fish are nice too, not sure which is better exp, although bone fish are lvl 98 so those are not til later and mp3 is still better than both. Herb town is good until you go to ludi. And sadly mp3 is still good too even early 11x.

I found Soul Rush very useful. Especially when u press combination of [jump],[up] (or all) together with soulRush, the distance travel will be much further.

and the best part is, you can use skill like brandish and soul drive right after soul rush, it feels like casting ultimate in the middle of FJ, I like it

Yeah i just ks botters while i get random ccers to report them. I get like 95% exp.

Good or bad?

It's MSEA btw.

It's MSEA btw.

Oh that makes it easy to asses.

edit: I meant assesses, really!

should be enough of a breeze to level that you dont hafta ask that question

here's my other mr. obvious opinion as v.96: max soul rush and FA
soul rush: (after tele up from the bottom wrap in DualGhostPirates) can jump to the platform immediately vs slow climbing ladder
FA:
charge up orbs without FA: 40% orb+1, 60% orb+2
charge up orbs with FA:
22.0% orb+1
40.2% orb+2
21.6% orb+3
16.2% orb+4

 Spoiler

Code:

1st 1 orb and no FA: 22%        1
1st 1 orb, FA with 1 orb: 7.2%        2
1st 1 orb, FA with 2 orbs: 10.8%    3

1st 2 orb and no FA: 33%        2
1st 2 orb, FA with 1 orb: 10.8%        3
1st 2 orb, FA with 2 orbs: 16.2%    4
