Hi~ I'm Jetago, a Hyper Novice Main~
|rowspan="2"|[[File:Warning.png |40px|Warning]]
 
! style="text-align:center; {{#if:{{{bg|}}} | This guide will receive continuous updates
And I decided to write this guide to provide a couple of tips based on my experience for anyone interested in following the path of the '''Physical Hyper Novice''' *-*
 
This guide will be focused on the Melee branch of the Hyper Novice
 
'''Double Bowling Bash''' and '''Mega Sonic Blow''' builds.
 
Hopefully it'll be helpful.

  Hello! Some of you may already know me (from previous servers), but if not, you will. My name is Hurt Locker, I'm a WH main, been in MuhRO for a long time. I designed this guide not only to update previous guides, but also to offer a fresh perspective on the job based on my experience and acquired knowledge. I hope you find it useful and... enjoy it!

Spam this chant x5 to trigger the skill, if it doesn't work, wait for a few seconds or change maps and try again

*'''R2.''' Yes and no, for what Crescive Bolt is, it's the best, for Gale Storm, it's also good, at the cost of spam (If you prefer spam, use {{#item:400539| Time Dimensions Rune Crown (Wind Hawk)}}). The enchant is so strong that it's impossible to ignore the advantage it can give to the WH. '''Either way, Crescive Bolt and Gale Storm have almost the same build, just change weapon.'''


== Cards ==
*'''R3.''' Almost all late-game content has Res/Mres. So you have several reasons to use it.
Here's a list with some recommended cards for general use (No Mvps included)


'''Note''': I recommend testing with different card sets so you can check what fits better on your preferences over damage, tankiness, versatility, Etc.
*'''R4.''' You can use it from +12 grade A, with {{#item:313426|Warrant of Arbiter}} without needing the {{#item:300595|Epesto Walther Megas Card}} (It's stronger if you have the card).

Introduction

 Hello! Some of you may already know me (from previous servers), but if not, you will. My name is Hurt Locker, I'm a WH main, been in MuhRO for a long time. I designed this guide not only to update previous guides, but also to offer a fresh perspective on the job based on my experience and acquired knowledge. I hope you find it useful and... enjoy it!


Always check the market (prices may vary) and the final damage depends on your build and equipment (progress is different and everyone goes at their own pace, you have to support each other).






Hidden Tips/Damage Boost

There are ways to increase your damage, do you know which ones? Even some old stuff still works

Gears/Consumables Note
It's all you need to boost your damage (the best arsenal at your disposal)
Perfect card combo for neutral objectives, Hol, CT for example (Super necessary for party. You can't leave home without it)
If you lack critical rate, these are your options
  • 100% CRIT doesn't mean having 100 CRIT on the ALT+A. Monster have a CRIT Shield based on their LUK/5. This means that a monster with 120 LUK reduces the CRIT displayed on ALT+A by 24
  • Remember, at the start (Critical Rate) you occupy 130+ (example Nif), 170+ (Venom, Temple, Cogh) and finally 190+ (Final Battle, Dep1, Dep2)
It doesn't have much mystery, more damage for a few seconds (if the PC allows it; if not, skip)

Late Game Gears

Now the questions will be answered. What is the WH late game? Here it is

Gear Note

+15 [A] 400723.png Yorscalp Crown of Execution [1] (400723) With:

If you ask me, this is the best hat to date in terms of damage and ignoring res (10%). It's a huge investment and is only focused on Crescive Bolt, the only compatible build (Gale Storm can do it too, if you don't mind losing some spam).

+15 [A] 400539.png Time Dimensions Rune Crown (Wind Hawk) [1] (400539) With:

It's a good hat, even if you're just starting out late game. It grants you crit rate, fixed damage, and combos with your weapon (either dimension or time gap). It's RECOMMENDED to have this hat before starting with the Yorscap Crown.

410233.png Gambler's Seal [1] (410233)

  • Reduce AfterCast Delay 5% x2 or Increases Ranged Damage 5% x2
It all depends on whether or not you have a version of Kiel (to go for ACD or Dmg).

420220.png Ace of Diamonds in Mouth (Ranged Physical) (420220)

  • Luk +5 or Vit +5 or Dex +5
  • Long ranged physical attack 7% or Critical damage 7%
you can change it for the 420269.png Ace of Clovers in Mouth (Defense) (420269) if you want some survival

+15 [A] 450172.png Nebula Suit of Creative [1] (450172)

The best armor for a long time

+15 [A] 700093.png Dimensions Wind Crossbow [2] (700093)

BIS bow for Crescive Bolt Build. Now, in the case of using Yorscalp Crown, yes or yes, you must use one 300595.png Epesto Walther Megas Card (300595) +27361.png Polluted Wander Man Card (27361) or any Card Size.

+15 [A] 700108.png Time Gap Wind Bow [2] (700108)

BIS bow for the Gale Storm build, allowing for near-instant spamming. It's great for Dep2 or for farming Venom/Temple.

+14/+15 [A] 480352.png Circulation of Life Winter [1] (480352)

The garment income alone significantly increases everything (it affects your total by 40%). A lot of grinding and patience.

+12 [A] 470303.png Yorscalp Boots [1] (470303)

Here you can see the cards I recommended earlier Now, the Yorscalp crown with boots give you 10% more damage, they are excellent boots in everything (survival, damage, economy).
  • 470260.png Gaebolg Boots [1] (470260) You can also keep the no reform version and it will still be perfect.
  • 470175.png Ice Rune Boots [1] (470175) You can also use for specific damage, like in Dep2 (at the cost of losing Hp%, you decide).

490486.png Signet of Circulation Winter [1] (490486)

Combo with the garment and acce , also important too.

490135.png Creative Signet of Star [1] (490135)

Combo with acce and armor , also important too.
  • 310701.png Star of Master Archer Lv5 (310701) Also due to the passage of time, the enchant it's completely viable (even the best) but yes, you lose -16 crit rate, keep that in mind.

Cards

Here you'll find the cards available for you to use, from the most common to the rarest and most expensive (sorted from best to worst). I hope this helps.

OP/Best Normal
Card options in Hat/Mid: Card options in Hat/Mid:
Card options in Armor: Card options in Armor:
Card options in Weapon:
  • 4399.png [MVP] Thanatos Card (4399) Use it in situations where the target has high defense (combine it with good Shadow Gear)
Card options in Weapon:
Card options in Garment: Card options in Garment:
Card options in Shoes: Card options in Shoes:
Card options in Accesory:


Card options in Accesory:

Stats

  • STR 1+
  • AGI 90
  • VIT 90+
  • INT 90
  • DEX 130
  • LUK 100+


*If you have 300530.png [MVP] Yortus Arbiter Card (300530) you'll want the 120 LUK, you'll have to use a lot of consumables to have 100% vct but the damage will be worth it.

*If you have 4676.png [MVP] Ranger Shecil Card (4676) you can forget about that problem, and you'll have a better chance of survival (at this point you'll have 150k+ hp).

*If you have 300473.png [MVP] Snow Angel Card (300473) You'll need to use 99 LUK to avoid losing critical rate. And with the help of multiple consumables, you'll be able to use it.

4th Job Stats (Traits)

  • POW 105+
  • STA 0
  • WIS 0
  • SPL 0
  • CON 70+
  • CRT 105+


*POW and CRT are the most important, you can distribute the remaining points to STA or WIS (CON is more damage/flee, it's your decision).

Costume Stones

The recommended stones have changed over time with the arrival of the 4th job stones. These are the best combination:

Stones Other options

Shadow Gears

We already know the classic Shadow Gear, but there are variations. Want to see them?

Gears Note
The standard set has not changed much, if you require more acd you have 24746.png Separate Reload Shadow Shield (24746)
Pretty good-rounded set, 20% Res bypass (30% with Hat Yorscalp Crown), 100% all-race bypass. Its only flaw is the size penalty, but you can fix that by using 9193.png Mistress Egg (9193) that generates that effect, and yes or yes, you need a version of the kiel.
Why is the Fatal Set incomplete? To take advantage of Thanatos (depending on the defense; if you have any % bypass, it wouldn't make sense) and we take advantage of that 10% Bypass Res (20% with hat), 0% Bypass all, Size Penalty and Immunity Knock-Back.

Answers to frequently asked questions

I've seen some questions about whether to stick with or invest in that gears. I'll try to answer them all (or the most frequently asked ones).

Doubt/Question Answer

400723.png Yorscalp Crown of Execution [1] (400723)

  • 1. What is the best enchant?
  • 2. Is it the best for everything?
  • 3. When can it be used?
  • 4. What does the hat need to be strong?
  • R2. Yes and no, for what Crescive Bolt is, it's the best, for Gale Storm, it's also good, at the cost of spam (If you prefer spam, use 400539.png Time Dimensions Rune Crown (Wind Hawk) [1] (400539) ). The enchant is so strong that it's impossible to ignore the advantage it can give to the WH. Either way, Crescive Bolt and Gale Storm have almost the same build, just change weapon.
  • R3. Almost all late-game content has Res/Mres. So you have several reasons to use it.

What combination can I use for farming? Gears drops

You can use this combination (for more information Click Here)

How do I solve the weight problem?

Don't worry about the low STR, to increase the weight there is the 7776.png Gym Pass (7776) . It is available at the Muh Shop

What can I use if I don't have any Mvp?

In the guide section I order from best to worst card to use (based on my experience, if it's not in the guide, it's because I don't see it as profitable to use).

I'm new or want to start using the job

If you are looking for how to start an early game with this class, I suggest you check out This Guide(click here) very complete and will help you get an idea (especially if you are coming from the pre-renewal and you have no idea what's new).
But you're looking for my opinion, right? I recommend this:

Type Item Enchants
Upper +10 19484.png Temporal Circlet (Ranger) [1] (19484)
Mid 400002.png Victory Wing Ears [1] (400002) if need ACD


410093.png Sealed Chain (410093) or 410094.png Sealed Chain [1] (410094) if need Critical Rate

Lower 420076.png Bondage Necklace (420076)
Armor +9/+10 450264.png Glacier Armor [1] (450264)
Weapon +11 18174.png Illusion Hunter Bow [2] (18174) or +9 700052.png Glacier Bow (700052)
Garment +9 450266.png Glacier Manteau [1] (450266)
Shoes +9/+10 470196.png Glacier Boots [1] (470196)
Accesorys 490106.png Grey Wolf Pendant [1] (490106) and 490107.png Grey Wolf Ring [1] (490107)
Stats/Traits
  • STR 1+
  • AGI 80
  • VIT 90
  • INT 90
  • DEX 130
  • LUK 125

Stats are tuned according to your early game and cards, recommended Traits are the same (Click Here)

  • Before this recommendation, when starting you need to use this(click here) Good early set, low requirements (17.1 Illusion) and easy to obtain after the Gear Eden Group.
  • Shadow Gear? Eden Shadow Gear (Click Here)

This is the gear I can recommend, your progress is like this, farm (Niff1 or 2) and get Dimension Bow>Boots or Hat>Armor>Boots or Shadow Gear. The rest will come on its own.
