= '''Leveling''' =
== '''How to level''' ==
The fastest leveling is with physical skills as the 1st, 2nd nor the 3rd job doesn't have good magic damage output.<br>
Main skills to use:
<ul>
<li> 1st class: {{#skill:48}}
<li> 2nd class: {{#skill:212}}
<li> 3rd class: {{#skill:2284}}
</ul>
Later it's up to you if you decide to level up with physical or magical build.<br>
If you decide to continue as physical, then:
<ul>
<li> 4th class: {{#skill:5314}}, {{#skill:5320}} and {{#skill:6513}} (after using {{#skill:6512}})
</ul>
In case of magical build you'll have to reset stats and skills and:
<ul>
<li> 4th class: {{#skill:5317}} and {{#skill:5321}}
</ul>

== '''Leveling base stats''' ==
For that reason I'd recommend the following base stat distribution:<br>
{| class="wikitable"
|+ 1st + 2nd class and Rebirth
|-
! Stat !! Points !! Comment
|-
| STR || 99 || Max this out as soon as possible
|-
| AGI || 99 || Max this one after STR
|-
| VIT || 1 || You don't need VIT early
|-
| INT || 1 || You don't need INT
|-
| DEX || 36 || Get just enough to hit something
|-
| LUK || 1 || You don't need LUK
|}

{| class="wikitable"
|+ Shadow Chaser
|-
! Stat !! Points !! Comment
|-
| STR || 120 || Prioritize this first after changing to Shadow Chaser
|-
| AGI || 120 || Prioritize this second
|-
| VIT || ~90 || At this point some extra HP matters
|-
| INT || ~40 || You don't need INT
|-
| DEX || ~100 || Midgame you'll need about 100 DEX to hit monsters
|-
| LUK || ~50 || Remainder of points
|}

{| class="wikitable"
|+ Physical Abyss Chaser
|-
! Trait !! Points !! Comment
|-
| POW || 110 || No brainer to prioritize first
|-
| CON || 110 || Prioritize this second for extra S.ATK
|}

{| class="wikitable"
|+ Magical Abyss Chaser
|-
! Stat/Trait !! Points !! Comment
|-
| STR || ~40 || Remainder of stat points to carry more items
|-
| AGI || 120 || We need good ASPD and FLEE
|-
| VIT || ~90 || At this point some extra HP matters
|-
| INT || 120 || Main source of MATK
|-
| DEX || 100 || We need to hit monsters and also get more ASPD
|-
| LUK || ~50 || Add LUK for extra MATK and CRI
|-
| SPL || 110 || Main source of damage in 4th class
|-
| CON || 110 || Prioritize this second for extra S.MATK
|}

== '''Leveling strategy''' ==
=== '''Novice (Lvl 1-10)''' ===
<ul>
<li> just skip the tutorial
<li> Alt+S -> Add 9 skill points to {{#skill:1}} Basic Skill
<li> @go main -> talk to the Job Master and change job to Thief
</ul>

=== '''Thief (Lvl 10-65)''' ===
<ul>
<li> @go eden -> Talk to ''Secretary Lime Evenor'' -> Select ''Join Eden Group'' -> Obtain {{#item:6219}}
<li> Go to the top warp to the hallway and then take the right warp to the next room
<li> Talk to Lucy and rent {{#item:24687}}, {{#item:24688}}, {{#item:24689}}, {{#item:24690}}, {{#item:24691}} and {{#item:24692}}
<li> Talk to XXXXXX and get Paradise Physical Set ({{#item:400137}}, {{#item:450183}}, {{#item:470067}}, {{#item:480103}}, {{#item:490122}} and {{#item:490123}})
<li> Talk to YYYYYY and get {{#item:510035}}
<li> Use Warper -> Dungeons -> Anthell
<li> Kill eggs until you reach base level 40 (add 10 skill points to {{#skill:48}} and {{#skill:49}} to speed up killing)
<li> @go eden -> Take all quests from the Eden Quest Board (40-69)
<li> Buy 100 {{#item:601}} from the Tool Dealer
<li> Use Warper -> Dungeons -> Orc Dungeon
<li> Kill 20 Orc Zombies (use {{#item:601}} to teleport in the map)
<li> Once finished with Orc Zombies, go to the second floor of the Orc Dungeon and kill 20 Orc Skeletons and 20 Zenorcs
<li> @go eden -> Complete the Eden Quest Board (40-69) and get your job level 50
<li> @go main -> Talk to Job Master and change job to Rogue (skill points don't matter, but if you're unsure, then max out {{#skill:50}} and {{#skill:51}}, add 8 points to {{#skill:52}} and 1 point to {{#skill:53}})
</ul>

=== '''Rogue (Lv 65-99)''' ===
<ul>
<li> Continue killing in Orc Dungeon until you reach base level 70
<li> Focus on getting {{#skill:212}} maxed out as soon as possible - this will be your main killing skill for Rogue and Stalker
<li> At level 70, @go eden -> Take the Eden Quest Board (70-99)
<li> Use Warper -> Dungeons -> Glast Heim -> Monastery
<li> Kill 15 Evil Druids and 15 Wraiths (use {{#item:601}} to teleport in the map)
<li> Repeat the quest until reaching base level 99 and job level 50
<li> (NOTE: I'd recommend finishing the quest kill count even after reaching 99/50, but not turning in the quest - you can turn it in later after Rebirth)
<li> @go main -> Talk to Job Master and Rebirth (add your skill points to any skills, they will be reset at this point, so you don't need to care where you put those skill points)
</ul>

=== '''High Novice (Lv 1-6)''' ===
<ul>
<li> Use Warper -> Dungeons -> Anthell
<li> Kill 1 egg (to get 10 job level)

</ul>

=== '''High Thief (Lv 6-70)''' ===
<ul>
<li> Repeat the steps above again until reaching xx/50
<li> (NOTE: If you saved your quest turn-in from killing Evil Druids and Wraiths, you can turn it in right here)
<li> Once you get 50 job level, @go main -> talk to the Job Master and change job to Stalker
</ul>

=== '''Stalker (Lv 70-99)''' ===
<ul>
<li> Repeat the steps above again until reaching 99/70
<li> @go main -> talk to the Job Master and change job to Shadow Chaser
</ul>

=== '''Shadow Chaser (Lv 99-200)''' ===
<ul>
<li> Get few skill points by killing few Evil Druids and Wraiths again and add them to your next main damage dealer: {{#skill:2284}}
<li> If you have 90 {{#item:25223}}, you can get your next set of items in Eden Group, that will greatly help you progress even faster
<ul>
<li>Rent a new Advanced Shadow Gear set for 20 {{#item:25223}}
<ul>
<li>{{#item:24703}}
<li>{{#item:24693}}

<ul>
<li>{{#item:510038}}
</ul>
<li>And get a new Advanced Physical Paradise set for 10 {{#item:25223}} a piece
<ul>
<li>{{#item:400139}}
<li>{{#item:450185}}
<li>{{#item:470069}}
<li>{{#item:480105}}
<li>{{#item:490126}}
<li>{{#item:490127}}
</ul>
<li> Use Warper -> Illusion Dungeons -> Illusion of Moonlight
<li> Kill 100 monsters with {{#skill:2284}}
<li> Repeat this quest until you have good damage to kill monsters in Illusion of Vampire
<li> Then move to Illusion of Teddy Bear (usually do this quest twice until you are strong enough to go to the next dungeon)
<li> Illusion of Twins
<li> Illusion of Labyrinth
<li> Illusion of Underwater
<li> At this stage you should be at level 200/70 and you can change job to Abyss Chaser (NOTE: either continue using the Physical Build, or feel free to switch to magical - both are strong)
</ul>

=== '''Abyss Chaser (Lv 200-275)''' ===
<ul>
<li> Level up in either Illusion of Underwater or start farming in Abyss 04
<li> This way you reach quickly level 245 and after that you will need to look for parties, do instances or level up doing quests or hard farm
<li> !!!TO BE CONTINUED - WORK IN PROGRESS!!!
</ul>

= '''Skills to copy''' =
== '''Plagiarism''' ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Skill !! Notes
|-
| {{#skill:421}} || A gap closer, no cooldown, longer distance than {{#skill:5315}}
|-
| {{#skill:1001}} || Another gap closer, no cooldown, longer distance than {{#skill:421}}, but also knocks back, which may be undesirable
|-
| {{#skill:83}} || A solid damage dealer thanks to all the +Fire% damage bonuses (also stuns!)
|-
| {{#skill:88}} || If you need some crowd control, this might be a good option to avoid some unnecessary damage
|}

== '''Reproduce''' ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Skill !! Notes
|-
| {{#skill:2210}} || Very nice recovery option for those lazy enough not to carry health potions
|-
| {{#skill:2054}} || A bit of damage boost, but really not noticeable
|-
| {{#skill:2213}} || A very huge damage boost especially for bosses
|}

= '''Equipment''' =
<ul>
<li>Pradise equip for leveling
<li>Once being able to farm up in Illusion dungeons, get Morpheus set
<li>Later get cheap Glacier set (people usually don't want it and it's part of the daily reward from a very quick instance
</ul>

And ultimately endgame equip:
