Hello everyone,
I was wondering what criteria to use when selecting a weapon to level up. Are there any weapon suggestions for a rather new player to pick as his first leveling weapon?
Thanks,
Mits
Weapon question
Re: Weapon question
First of all, I am assuming you want to level based on fighting and not to make a relayer item with, so:
1. You want to find weapons that have special attacks that fit your play style of either melee or ranged attack (bow)
2. After that, you want the wep to have properties that will enhance the special attack, like mana leech, life leech, and any properties that help you hit your target or lower its defenses.
3. You would like to have those properties at the highest percentage as possible.
4. If the weapon comes with an extra attack property, like lightning strike or fireball, even better though you have to beware as some monsters get stronger if you use magic on them.
5. If you plan on using melee weapons, I suggest you also make sure you learn the following skills: Discordance and Chivalry.
I would think that most players go for a Yumi bow if they are for range play.
I prefer melee weapons with crushing blow special attack. Crushing blow combined with discordance, enemy of one and consecrate arms can raise a weapon with a base damge of around 50 points up to dealing 180 points of damage or more and if it has lightning, magic arrow or fireball as well, even more damage.
There are several posts on how to properly level a wep here and provide much better advice, but your question is to what type of weapon and I hope this gives you a better idea on how to approach it. I am sure others will have plenty more to add.
