'''(Description WIP)''' - The Super Novice can take one of two routes - Mage or Physical. The Physical Hyper Novice will have to deal with the inherent limitations of the Super Novice, having lower HP and SP than most other classes. However, by learning from other classes and improving their most notable skills, they Break through the Super Novice's Limits, transcending from Super into Hyper, and I got writer's block.
The Super Novice can take one of two routes - Mage or Physical. The Physical Hyper Novice will have to deal with the inherent limitations of the Super Novice, having lower HP and SP than most other classes. Despite being tossed aside and labeled as "not a real job", the Super Novice persevered, trying their absolute best to better themselves and push the limits of what is possible. Through hard and smart work, and clever ingenuity, they discovered that combining two or more existing skills to form a new one yielded fantastic results, and new skills in the process. They broke through their limitations and transcended, and thus, the Physical Hyper Novice is born.

The example build below is an HP-leech focused build that sacrifices a little bit of power in exhcnage for increased survivability. It is ideal for slaughtering hordes of mobs, especially when a lack of power is compensated by increased survivability. Heal one's self by hurting others. The more, the merrier. But in exhcnage, become a slave to the RNG gods.

|Upper Headgear
|[[Cash Shop]]
|A very good headgear that provides a lot of bonuses, especially at higher refines. It doesn't give as much damage as the Endeavor Coin EVT headgears below, leaning more towards surviving and staying a bit longer in battle.
|-
|{{#item:34281|Clark Sidecap EVT}}
|Headgear
|[[Endeavor Tokens]] shop in @go 50, 2nd floor
|Ignoring the OS weapons bonuses, this is the only one that boosts Melee damage. To easily get them to +10, refine them to +4, buy a couple of {{#item:35160|ET insta-polish}} for 3 {{#item:32417|Endeavor Tokens}} a piece, because it will refine them to +7 - 10 at random.
|-
|{{#item:34278|Chung Cap EVT}}
{{#item:34280|Stripe Cap EVT}}<br>
{{#item:34284|Red Coronet EVT}}
|Headgear
|[[Endeavor Tokens]] shop in @go 50, 2nd floor
|Ignoring the OS weapons bonuses, these three are pretty much the same. They boost ranged physical damage, especially at high refines. Choose which one looks good without an upper headgear costume. To easily get them to +10, refine them to +4 and buy a couple of {{#item:35160|ET insta-polish}} for 3 {{#item:32417|Endeavor Tokens}} a piece, because it will refine them to +7 - 10 at random.
|-
|{{#item:410080|Deep Blue Sunglasses }}
|Middle Headgear
|
|Requires a non-slotted {{#item:410079|Deep Blue Sunglasses}} and {{#item:6396|Spiritual Auger }} to slot. A cool-looking slotted Middle Headgear that can be enchanted. Try to get ATK enchants.
|-
|{{#item:400002|Victory Wing Ears }}
|Middle Headgear
|
|Requires a non-slotted {{#item:400001|Victory Wing Ears}} and {{#item:6396|Spiritual Auger }} to slot. A cool-looking slotted Middle Headgear that can be enchanted. Try to get ATK enchants. This is slightly more preferrable to the Deep Blue Sunglasses because of the Aftercast Delay reduction.
|-
|{{#item:18754|Blood Sucker}}
|Lower Headgear
|{{#item:28620|Lower Hat Box}}
|A hideous-looking lower headgear that increases survivability by adding a small chance (3%) to lifesteal (5% of damage dealt as HP) when physically attacking at the cost of completely stopping HP and SP regeneration.
|-
|{{#item:450127|Automatic Armor A-type}}
|Armor
|[[Illusion]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Armor. Gives a large increase in ATK (+125), more ATK at higher refines, a boost to ASPD (+15%) at +7 and gives bonuses depending on which Illusion Engine Wing and Leg Type equipped. Choose between {{#item:1000134|Automatic Module (Delay after skill)}}, {{#item:1000122|Automatic Module (Power)}}, {{#item:1000129|Automatic Module (Attacker Force)}}, {{#item:1000131|Automatic Module (Critical Force)}}.
|-
|{{#item:510054|Fortified Edge |slots=2 }}
|Dagger
|Broken Security Beta, Verporte
|A level 5 weapon that boosts {{#skill:5451 |Double Bowling Bash}} damage. Refine this to +8.
|-
|{{#item:510039|Paradise Super Novice Dagger }}
|Dagger
|[[Eden Group]]
|If better weapons like the ones listed below are still way out of reach, this humble dagger will still serve you well, even beyond level 200. It deals more damage than a +15 Crimson Mace, +15 Crimson Dagger and about as much damage as a +8 Fortified Edge. As the content gets tougher though, start saving Zeny and materials for better weapons.
|-
|{{#item:500007|Hypocrisy Machine |slots=3 }}
|One-Handed Sword
|Broken Security Beta, Verporte
|One of, if not the best weapons for Physical Build Hyper Novices, ranged or melee. An indestructible sword (not applicable to refining) that grows stronger the more it is refined while having an awesome quirk - it has 3 card slots instead of the usual 2. Refine this weapon to <s>infinity</s> +11 and beyond.
|-
|{{#item:510072|Blessed Knife-LT |slots=2 }}
|Dagger
|[[Ancient Hero]]
|Currently the most powerful evolution of the Blessed Knife, it grows stronger the more it is refined and graded. Level 10 Fatal Menace is granted at +7, just like its lesser Patent form. Best paired with {{#item:470094|Hero Boots-LT}}
'''This part needs testing: +11 Blessed Knife-LT vs +12 Hypocrisy Machine, so this is purely theory and speculation:''' Unless you have a {{#item:28946|Purified Knight's Shield  }} with the "Remove Size Penalty" enchant or {{#item:24150|Infinity Shadow Ring }} and {{#item:24151|Infinity Shadow Bracer }} with a combined refine of +15, its damage will be on par or just negligibly higher compared to a Hypocrisy Machine at best, even when comboed with Hero Boots-LT. Then there's the fact that it has just 2 slots compared to the Hypocrisy Machine's 3.
|-
|{{#item:500046|Poenitentia Orbis |slots=2 }}
|One-Handed Sword
|[[Tomb of Remorse]]
|A sword that boosts {{#skill:5453 |Shield Chain Rush}} and {{#skill:5451 |Double Bowling Bash}} damage, especially at higher refines and grades.
|-
|{{#item:2113|Novice Shield  }}
|Shield
|Lighthalzen Armory
|If a Purified Knight's Shield, Illusion Guard or Illusion Silver Guard are still out of reach, then this cheap and cutesy shield will still serve you well, thanks to its 20% resistance to all elements except Neutral.
|-
|{{#item:460017|Illusion Guard  }}
|Shield
|[[Illusion of Twins]]
|Grants ASPD and Perfect Hit and can be enchanted. Get this if you're still lacking ASPD.
|-
|{{#item:28946|Purified Knight's Shield  }}
|Shield
|Cash Shop
|A fantastic shield that provides many bonuses, especially at higher refines. Try to get the "Remove weapon's size penalty enchant", AKA free Drake Card, especially when you plan on using the {{#item:510072|Blessed Knife-LT |slots=2 }} as your main weapon.
|-
|{{#item:460018|Illusion Silver Guard  }}
|Shield
|Cash Shop
|Reduces VCT and ACD depending on refine rate. While it doesn't have the Purified Knight's Shield's Drake Card enchant, its VCT and ACD reductions are still very useful for all builds.
|-
|{{#item:480020|Automatic Engine Wing A-type}}
|Garment
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Engine Wing. Increases HP by 1500 and adds 100 HP every 2 refine rate. At +7, it increases attack speed. Choose between {{#item:1000125|Automatic Module (Fast)}}, {{#item:1000127|Automatic Module (Critical)}} and {{#item:1000143|Automatic Module (Powerful)}}.
|-
|{{#item:480124|Convertible Physical Wing}}
|Garment
|[[Sunken Sands]]
|A significantly upgraded version of the Excellion Wing, tuned to greatly boost physical power, especially when refined and paired with either Deep Blue Sungasses and Victory Wing Ears. A good all-rounder, whether melee or ranged.
|-
|{{#item:480197|Convertible Critical Wing}}
|Garment
|[[Sunken Sands]]
|A significantly upgraded version of the Excellion Wing, tuned to greatly boost physical power and critical damage, especially when refined and paired with either Deep Blue Sungasses and Victory Wing Ears. Best for builds focused on Mega Sonic Blow.
|-
|{{#item:470022|Automatic Leg A-type}}
|Shoes
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Leg. Max SP +250. Adds 20 SP every 2 refine rate. Choose between {{#item:1000119|Automatic Module (Vital)}}, {{#item:1000120|Automatic Module (Mental)}}, {{#item:1000135|Automatic Module (Fixed Casting)}}, {{#item:1000149|Automatic Module (Overpower)}} or {{#item:1000150|Automatic Module (Fatal Flash)}} for increased damage.
|-
|{{#item:470094|Hero Boots-LT}}
|Footgear
|
|The current final form of the Ancient Hero Boots, this pair of shiny shoes gives quite a lot of bonuses, especially at high refines and better grades. It's an upgrade over the Automatic Leg A-type at high refines AND when paired with the {{#item:510072|Blessed Knife-LT |slots=2 }}. Try to aim for a +11 Grade C at least.
|-
|{{#item:490024|Automatic Booster R}}
|Accessory
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Booster. ATK +5% and MSP +5%. Choose between {{#item:1000137|Automatic Module (Drain Life)}}, {{#item:1000116|Automatic Module(Attack Speed)}} and {{#item:1000117|Automatic Module (Fatal)}} and {{#item:1000144|Automatic Module (All Force)}}.
|-
|{{#item:490025|Automatic Booster L }}
|Accessory
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Booster. ATK +5% and MSP +5%. {{#item:1000138|Automatic Module (Drain Soul)}}, {{#item:1000116|Automatic Module(Attack Speed)}} and {{#item:1000117|Automatic Module (Fatal)}} and {{#item:1000144|Automatic Module (All Force)}}.
|-
|{{#item:24619|Super Power Shadow Glove}}
|Shadow Gear
|[[Ancient Laboratory]]
|An improved version of the already really good Super Novice Shadow Gauntlet and the centerpiece of the Super Power Shadow Set. For Hyper Novices, only this is needed. The brooch and bangle are unnecessary.
'''Unlike what the description says, it DOES NOT need the Super Power Shadow Bangle and Brooch below to get the DEF pierce, just this glove and the SN Shadow Shield below and the refine rate of both. Type @battlestats or @bs to confirm.'''
|-
|{{#item:24318|Super Novice Shadow Shield }}
|Shadow Gear
|go 15
|Highly recommended to get this, as it provides a lot of nice bonuses depending on which skills are leveled. Max Owl's Eye to reduce Variable Casting Time and if necessary, max Double Attack for faster ASPD.
|-
|{{#item:24150|Infinity Shadow Ring }}
{{#item:24151|Infinity Shadow Bracer }}
|Shadow Gear
|go 15
|Nullifies all annoying and pesky weapon size penalties if both have a total refine of 15 and above. If getting the "Remove weapon's size penalty" enchant on a PKS is too elusive or if the PKS isn't the best for you, then these two will do the trick.

|Ignoring the OS weapons bonuses, these three are pretty much the same. They boost ranged physical damage, especially at high refines. Choose which one looks good without an upper headgear costume. To easily get them to +10, refine them to +4 and buy a couple of {{#item:35160|ET insta-polish}} for 3 {{#item:32417|Endeavor Tokens}} a piece, because it will refine them to +7 - 10 at random.
|-
|{{#item:410080|Deep Blue Sunglasses }}
|Middle Headgear
|
|Requires a non-slotted {{#item:410079|Deep Blue Sunglasses}} and {{#item:6396|Spiritual Auger }} to slot. A cool-looking slotted Middle Headgear that can be enchanted. Try to get ATK enchants.
|-
|{{#item:400002|Victory Wing Ears }}
|Middle Headgear
|
|Requires a non-slotted {{#item:400001|Victory Wing Ears}} and {{#item:6396|Spiritual Auger }} to slot. A cool-looking slotted Middle Headgear that can be enchanted. Try to get ATK enchants. This is slightly more preferrable to the Deep Blue Sunglasses because of the Aftercast Delay reduction.
|-
|{{#item:18754|Blood Sucker}}
|Lower Headgear
|{{#item:28620|Lower Hat Box}}
|A hideous-looking lower headgear that increases survivability by adding a small chance (3%) to lifesteal (5% of damage dealt as HP) when physically attacking at the cost of completely stopping HP and SP regeneration.
|-
|{{#item:450127|Automatic Armor A-type}}
|Armor
|[[Illusion]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Armor. Gives a large increase in ATK (+125), more ATK at higher refines, a boost to ASPD (+15%) at +7 and gives bonuses depending on which Illusion Engine Wing and Leg Type equipped. Choose between {{#item:1000134|Automatic Module (Delay after skill)}}, {{#item:1000122|Automatic Module (Power)}}, {{#item:1000129|Automatic Module (Attacker Force)}}, {{#item:1000131|Automatic Module (Critical Force)}}.
|-
|{{#item:510054|Fortified Edge |slots=2 }}
|Dagger
|Broken Security Beta, Verporte
|A level 5 weapon that boosts {{#skill:5451 |Double Bowling Bash}} damage. Refine this to +8.
|-
|{{#item:510039|Paradise Super Novice Dagger }}
|Dagger
|[[Eden Group]]
|If better weapons like the ones listed below are still way out of reach, this humble dagger will still serve you well, even beyond level 200. It deals more damage than a +15 Crimson Mace, +15 Crimson Dagger and about as much damage as a +8 Fortified Edge. As the content gets tougher though, start saving Zeny and materials for better weapons.
|-
|{{#item:500007|Hypocrisy Machine |slots=3 }}
|One-Handed Sword
|Broken Security Beta, Verporte
|One of, if not the best weapons for Physical Build Hyper Novices, ranged or melee. An indestructible sword (not applicable to refining) that grows stronger the more it is refined while having an awesome quirk - it has 3 card slots instead of the usual 2. Refine this weapon to <s>infinity</s> +11 and beyond.
|-
|{{#item:510072|Blessed Knife-LT |slots=2 }}
|Dagger
|[[Ancient Hero]]
|Currently the most powerful evolution of the Blessed Knife, it grows stronger the more it is refined and graded. Level 10 Fatal Menace is granted at +7, just like its lesser Patent form. Best paired with {{#item:470094|Hero Boots-LT}}
'''This part needs testing: +11 Blessed Knife-LT vs +12 Hypocrisy Machine, so this is purely theory and speculation:''' Unless you have a {{#item:28946|Purified Knight's Shield  }} with the "Remove Size Penalty" enchant or {{#item:24150|Infinity Shadow Ring }} and {{#item:24151|Infinity Shadow Bracer }} with a combined refine of +15, its damage will be on par or just negligibly higher compared to a Hypocrisy Machine at best, even when comboed with Hero Boots-LT. Then there's the fact that it has just 2 slots compared to the Hypocrisy Machine's 3.
|-
|{{#item:500046|Poenitentia Orbis |slots=2 }}
|One-Handed Sword
|[[Tomb of Remorse]]
|A sword that boosts {{#skill:5453 |Shield Chain Rush}} and {{#skill:5451 |Double Bowling Bash}} damage, especially at higher refines and grades.
|-
|{{#item:2113|Novice Shield  }}
|Shield
|Lighthalzen Armory
|If a Purified Knight's Shield, Illusion Guard or Illusion Silver Guard are still out of reach, then this cheap and cutesy shield will still serve you well, thanks to its 20% resistance to all elements except Neutral.
|-
|{{#item:460017|Illusion Guard  }}
|Shield
|[[Illusion of Twins]]
|Grants ASPD and Perfect Hit and can be enchanted. Get this if you're still lacking ASPD.
|-
|{{#item:28946|Purified Knight's Shield  }}
|Shield
|Cash Shop
|A fantastic shield that provides many bonuses, especially at higher refines. Try to get the "Remove weapon's size penalty enchant", AKA free Drake Card, especially when you plan on using the {{#item:510072|Blessed Knife-LT |slots=2 }} as your main weapon.
|-
|{{#item:460018|Illusion Silver Guard  }}
|Shield
|Cash Shop
|Reduces VCT and ACD depending on refine rate. While it doesn't have the Purified Knight's Shield's Drake Card enchant, its VCT and ACD reductions are still very useful for all builds.
|-
|{{#item:480020|Automatic Engine Wing A-type}}
|Garment
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Engine Wing. Increases HP by 1500 and adds 100 HP every 2 refine rate. At +7, it increases attack speed. Choose between {{#item:1000125|Automatic Module (Fast)}}, {{#item:1000127|Automatic Module (Critical)}} and {{#item:1000143|Automatic Module (Powerful)}}.
|-
|{{#item:480124|Convertible Physical Wing}}
|Garment
|[[Sunken Sands]]
|A significantly upgraded version of the Excellion Wing, tuned to greatly boost physical power, especially when refined and paired with either Deep Blue Sungasses and Victory Wing Ears. A good all-rounder, whether melee or ranged.
|-
|{{#item:480197|Convertible Critical Wing}}
|Garment
|[[Sunken Sands]]
|A significantly upgraded version of the Excellion Wing, tuned to greatly boost physical power and critical damage, especially when refined and paired with either Deep Blue Sungasses and Victory Wing Ears. Best for builds focused on Mega Sonic Blow.
|-
|{{#item:470022|Automatic Leg A-type}}
|Shoes
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Leg. Max SP +250. Adds 20 SP every 2 refine rate. Choose between {{#item:1000119|Automatic Module (Vital)}}, {{#item:1000120|Automatic Module (Mental)}}, {{#item:1000135|Automatic Module (Fixed Casting)}}, {{#item:1000149|Automatic Module (Overpower)}} or {{#item:1000150|Automatic Module (Fatal Flash)}} for increased damage.
|-
|{{#item:470094|Hero Boots-LT}}
|Footgear
|
|The current final form of the Ancient Hero Boots, this pair of shiny shoes gives quite a lot of bonuses, especially at high refines and better grades. It's an upgrade over the Automatic Leg A-type at high refines AND when paired with the {{#item:510072|Blessed Knife-LT |slots=2 }}. Try to aim for a +11 Grade C at least.
|-
|{{#item:490024|Automatic Booster R}}
|Accessory
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Booster. ATK +5% and MSP +5%. Choose between {{#item:1000137|Automatic Module (Drain Life)}}, {{#item:1000116|Automatic Module(Attack Speed)}} and {{#item:1000117|Automatic Module (Fatal)}} and {{#item:1000144|Automatic Module (All Force)}}.
|-
|{{#item:490025|Automatic Booster L }}
|Accessory
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Improved version of the Illusion Booster. ATK +5% and MSP +5%. {{#item:1000138|Automatic Module (Drain Soul)}}, {{#item:1000116|Automatic Module(Attack Speed)}} and {{#item:1000117|Automatic Module (Fatal)}} and {{#item:1000144|Automatic Module (All Force)}}.
|-
|{{#item:24619|Super Power Shadow Glove}}
|Shadow Gear
|[[Ancient Laboratory]]
|An improved version of the already really good Super Novice Shadow Gauntlet and the centerpiece of the Super Power Shadow Set. For Hyper Novices, only this is needed. The brooch and bangle are unnecessary.
'''Unlike what the description says, it DOES NOT need the Super Power Shadow Bangle and Brooch below to get the DEF pierce, just this glove and the SN Shadow Shield below and the refine rate of both. Type @battlestats or @bs to confirm.'''
|-
|{{#item:24318|Super Novice Shadow Shield }}
|Shadow Gear
|go 15
|Highly recommended to get this, as it provides a lot of nice bonuses depending on which skills are leveled. Max Owl's Eye to reduce Variable Casting Time and if necessary, max Double Attack for faster ASPD.
|-
|{{#item:24150|Infinity Shadow Ring }}
{{#item:24151|Infinity Shadow Bracer }}
|Shadow Gear
|go 15
|Nullifies all annoying and pesky weapon size penalties if both have a total refine of 15 and above. If getting the "Remove weapon's size penalty" enchant on a PKS is too elusive or if the PKS isn't the best for you, then these two will do the trick.

|-
|{{#item:5897|Ascendant Crown  }}
|Upper Headgear
|[[Cash Shop]]
|A very good headgear that provides a lot of bonuses, especially at higher refines. It doesn't give as much damage as the Endeavor Coin EVT headgears below, leaning more towards surviving and staying a bit longer in battle.
|-
|{{#item:34281|Clark Sidecap EVT}}
|Headgear
|[[Endeavor Tokens]] shop in @go 50, 2nd floor
|Ignoring the OS weapons bonuses, this is the only one that boosts Melee damage. To easily get them to +10, refine them to +4, buy a couple of {{#item:35160|ET insta-polish}} for 3 {{#item:32417|Endeavor Tokens}} a piece, because it will refine them to +7 - 10 at random.
