Introduktion

In this guide I will give some Insight and recommendations based on my personal experience on how to reach floor 40-50+.

Class Setup

• 1st let's talk about classes
• The most Important classes are Elemental Master | Biolo | Arch Bishop | Imperial Guard
• Keep in mind that even if I put certain Classes into Support/DPS All support classes can be DPS classes but not all DPS Classes can be Support!
• Any DPS will do however proper synergy will make your party a lot faster later on.
• For DPS you want to have at least 15b dps but you should aim for 30b+ (if you want to reach higher floors)

Support Classes

• As mentioned above you do want to have the Big 4 in your party at all times
• I will add some notes for them here and other support classes

Arch Bishop

Job

• The AB has major buffs and most importantly has Lauda Ramus/Agnus which will clear you of most debuffs
• can quickly res everyone with full hp
• lex spam for more dps
• Mediale to keep the Devo alive

Gear

• Most importantly you need to be AS IMMUNE AS POSSIBLE
• That means you need protection against Sleep/Stun/Silence/Freeze because otherwise you can't clear the others of those debuffs
• Secondly be as tanky as possible
• thirdly if you manage to squeeze it in you can also do lex spam

Imperial Guard

Job

• Protect all DPS with Devo which is needed bcs higher lvl monster will oneshot dps otherwise
• Ultimate sacrifice is enabled that basically resserects you once upon death
• Guardian shield will protect you from physical dmg
• On floors that have the Erend Monster Piety every relevant Party member for that floor!

Gear

• As much hp as possible (Alice is nice to have)

Elemental Master

Job

• LP is your friend. Depending on you you lay/replayce it, it will make or break the party. (keep in mind spells can overlap onto lp so take the last 3 cells as not being there)
• Extreeme Vacuum is the most important tool to keep monsters away from the party and if you place it right against the lp those pesky orcs can t cast Pneuma.
• Warmer can remove Crystalize (important if your priest is frozen^^)
• Can easily generate ap for the others.
• Striking is a major DPS boost for all Physical classes.
• Spell enchancing and the 4 Endows are nice boosts for magic.
• insignias give major DPS boost with the 4 Elements and works well with vacuum

Gear

• Same as Priest you want to be as immune as possible but you don't need much ACD
• Mistress Card or Gemstone Shadow gear is highly recommended otherwise you will burn through them very fast

Biolo

• Although simple but FCP is a must have skill in any ToT Party or you will be stuck with broken equipment
• On Melee floors Shadow protection is also very helpful (or on yourself)
• crazyweed can remove Pneuma and other ground effects (like spiderweb)

Gear

• You have 2 options you can either go Full DPS or Full Tank with Immunities (I recommend Full Tank)

Other noteworthy Supports

Spirit Handler

• Cat Shield is very strong and can help survivability of the whole party
• can take some buffs off of AB and can sínstandly recover the AB's AP

Soul Ascetic

• Fully focuses on keeping his buffs active and can give Soul of Heaven and Earth which will increase overall dps

Inquisitor

• can be a very strong Tank with steelbody (no movement penality inside the tower)

DPS Classes & Synergy

• I will primarily point out Synergy on specific classes. (If I didn't mention them earlier).

Arch Mage

• Comet is the most useful debuff which adds a flat -50% elemental resist to monsters
• situational all bloom with climax 4 is useful when you use a fire setup

Troubadour & Trouvere

• March of prontera etc is a nice to have dps/def boost
• Has plenty of other songs & Buffs

Shadow Cross

• Darc claw /fatal shadow crow will boost melee dps

Inquisitor

• Oelum Sanctum boosts range DPS

Dangerous Floors and Monsters

Floors

Death

• If you die you become useless for the rest of the floor this can be a death sentence so be sure to walk extra slow pull them 1 at a time if nessessary

Armageddon

• Be wary if you have effects off you don't see the Meteors!
• If there are Ancient Mimics or Mandragoras be VERY CAREFUL. They can pull you into a meteor and cause a full wipe!

Monsters

• all dangerous monsters and some useful info:

Celia Alde

• Has deadly curse, Water Ball, AoE Dispell, AoE Spiderweb(can be blocked by LP) and can bypass vacuum.

Erend

• Can 1shot basically anyone without holy armor Piety is your best friend~

Anubis

• Has Coma so be wary while Tanking it.

Grand Peco|Zombie

• Both can snap into the party and deal large LP ignoring aoe dmg that squishy dps won't survive --> Devo is your friend.

Bady Garm

• Can also snap into the party and has sightthrasher which will pushh you around if you don't have knockback immunity.
• has close confine (you can get out of it if you use hiding)

Ancient Mimic

• Can pull everyone in sight to itself but only does so if you target it with any skill!
• Can bypass vacuum (which is more helpful than harmful)

Mandragora

• Can cast Mandragora howling which is very annoying. however the short cast time can be interupted so keep attacking and it won t cast it!
• Also has an AoE Pull so be wary on Armageddon floors

=Isilla

• Has Diamond dust. Stay on LP and you're fine

Poring

• Can cast various dangerously strong magic aoes! Stay 3 cells away from the edge of lp or a stray meteor can kill you!

Andre

• Has earthdrain which can be a bit unpredictable with lp, stay 3 cells away from edges to be safe

SideWinder

• Has poison clouds which are dangerous for dps (for tanks it isn't that dangerous)

Joker

• Has deadly curse and can bypass vacuum

Speed Lunatics

• Has close confine (you can get out of it if you use hiding)
• Has extreemy high aspd and will hit/stun lock you (very annoying for mobbing monsters)
• Can bypass LP

Leaf Cat

• Has lock on laser 1 isn t as bad but 3 or 4? you die almost instantly if you are not on lp
• Can fully drain your SP don t pull too many or you will be drained all the time!
