The Mayhemic way of the Biolo by Meep: Difference between revisions

[[Category:Biolo]]

Hello, I am Meep, and I've been playing MuhRO for months now. I started as a Biolo and still am one. I'm not very good at anything math-related, so if you have any questions about math, I'm not the guy for that—lmao. I know biolo but im not an expert so please reach out to me if you think something is wrong with the guide, thanks (meep0_o)<br><br>

I'm making this guide to help beginners navigate from the early game to the endgame. This guide will not cover all gear options, especially those I deem wasteful, as acquiring such gear wouldn’t significantly improve farming efficiency in the areas I'll be mentioning.

This guide focuses on Biolo, starting with the Mayhemic Thorns build. I may add more builds in the future (or when Time Gap comes). <br><br>

Play what ever you think is fun. You may or may not like Biolo gameplay so I would list down some pros and cons

* Magic classes dominates the end game dungeons.

* '''{{#skill:6006}}''': The skill that you would be using a lot. It is a 9x9 AoE range skill that the damage can be boosted by {{#skill:5347}} and {{#skill:5348}}. Every skill cast recovers 2 AP so make sure to use it (or else you wont do damage)!

* '''{{#skill:5347}}''': Makes your {{#skill:6006}} damage bigger. Buffs Acidified damage against formless and plants. Try to have this active at all times.  

* '''{{#skill:2478}}''': The best movement skill we got. This basically has the same speed as {{#item:12710}}

* '''{{#skill:243}}''': Calls out your Homunculus. It can take aggro from mobs whenever you TP for efficient farming. This consumes {{#item:7140}} and only last for 30 minutes unless it dies which in that case you can use {{#skill:247}} to call it for free.

* '''{{#skill:5339}}''': Protects shadow equipment of the target from being stripped or destroyed. Useful for certain instances

* '''{{#skill:5338}}''': Protects weapons and equipment of the caster and nearby party members from being stripped or destroyed. Only useful for party plays.

* '''{{#skill:479}}''': Protects your gears or party member's gears from being destroyed.

* '''{{#skill:2483}}''': Can remove Spider Webs in Depth 2 and reveal hidden enemies.

First we must learn about {{#skill:6006}}. It has a 0.7s Cooldown with 0.5s Fixed Cast time so it can be slow but with the help of gears and stats you can lower those numbers down. Just using {{#item:470020}} reduces your FCT by 0.5s. Utilize the free buffs that you can get in [[Beginners Guide|Eden Group]] such as {{#item:12883}} for faster casting.  

For example, if you have 100 Cri and you're fighting a Grote (Nif2) with 32 Critical Shield, your true critical chance is 100 - 32 = 68. This means you need 132 Cri to maintain a 100% crit chance against that mob. You can use {{#item:12458}} if you wish to temporarily increase your cri.

== Gear Progression ==

This is the beginning of your journey. Take it slow or fast. Just have fun and enjoy the journey! Also, you shouldn't rush to the late game, as your farming efficiency improves with the new gear you acquire, making it much easier to earn Zeny. For Leveling guide please see [[Spike's Leveling & Cart Cannon Guide]] to level up to 200. After getting to level 200, prioritize getting gears that you can get while also leveling your character to 250 to let you use any gears on this list. <br><br>

==== Good Farming Places ====

Dungeons that you should be able to gain zeny from with the current early game gears including the ones from beginner section. Always keep {{#item:25728}}, {{#item:25729}}, {{#item:25730}}, {{#item:25731}}, and {{#item:1000322}} when farming as they can be sold or used for crafting. <br>

Rudus 4 and Niflheim 1 now drops Equipments boxes. They can be opened, but I suggest opening some to vend and selling the rest.

=== Mid Game ===

This section will talk about gears that you can temporary use and also gears that you would use for end game. These can be expensive to buy or craft so buckle up! Some early game gears are still used but enchanted. <br>

| <br><br> +10 {{#item:24386}} OR  +10 {{#item:24733}} <br><br>|| Use this if you're using {{#item:500093}} already. It nullifies weapon damage penalty resulting from monster's size. I suggest using the weapon type.

|-

|-

| <br><br> +10 {{#item:24339}} and +10 {{#item:24340}} <br><br> || This gives +20 stats which is pretty nice. I prefer getting this to reach instant cast and for extra Cri. It deals less damage than Max Mammoth.

==== Mid Game Farming ====

As always keep {{#item:25728}}, {{#item:25729}}, {{#item:25730}}, {{#item:25731}}, and {{#item:1000322}} for vending or your own use. Having +12A {{#item:500093}} and a Full set of +9 {{#item:24663}} shadow gear is enough to farm here. Everything will overweight you here so bring a {{#item:12211}} or {{#item:23648}} (Cash Shop). I also added the cri you need to hit critical damage 100% of the time! <br>

<big>For homunculus please check Spike's [https://wiki.muhro.eu/Spike%27s_Leveling_%26_Cart_Cannon_Guide#Homunculus| Homunculus guide]. He has a step by step details on how to get your own Dieter as he is too good to pass on.</big>

These are some of the consumables that I use whenever I farm or do instances.

WIP  

Our only way of reaching insta-cast is by stats alone so I'll be showing ways to reach that 530 stats thresh-hold. First of all Variable Casting Time reduction can be calculated with ((int+(dex*2))/530)*100. An example is having 90 int with 130 dex, 90+(130*2)= 350 then divide it by 530 giving us 0.66 multiplied by 100 is equals to 66%. This means with just those stats alone we can reduce our Variable Casting time by 66% and we want to reach 100% for insta-cast!

Please visit [[Choi's Guide To Magic]] to learn more about Variable casting, Fixed cast time and attack speed!

WIP PLEASE TELL ME SOME IF YOU GOT SOME

Some stuff that I've learned while playing Biolo (If you got more then don't hesitate to ask me)

* You can use Illusion Doping for ET and OGH Normal mode for fast instances.

* Use {{#item:5902}} while farming for easy {{#item:6211}}, {{#item:6210}}, and {{#item:6212}}. ([[Equipment Crafting]])

If you have any question or thinks that something is not suppose to be there then please DM me on discord (@meep0_o).  

* Do you recommend Biolo?

Sadly it has been power-crept by Dimensional weapons. I've tested it and +12A Dim glacier fully enchanted does do more damage against +12A Dimensional but the difference is barely noticeable and getting your Grade A tdrc makes dim glacier less powerful.
