This is the first choke point of being Windhawk. The transition towards Crescive Bolt will require you to have -1.0 FCT. Since getting {{#item:25067}} for the -0.5FCT is [[Costume_Enchants_(Fashion_Points)#Garment_1st_slot|gacha-based]] in our server, you will have to be patient and slowly farm the next tier equipments. Grace Set will not work with Crescive Bolt.

Despite having unlocked Crescive Bolt early on, most beginner Windhawk will probably never get to play this build until later on. Mainly cause this build requires you to have -'''1sec FCT and 50% ACDR'''.  Unfortunately in our server the chance of getting the -0.5sec FCT {{#item:25067}} is way too low and if it was available in the market, the price would be insanely expensive (150m+). That's why getting +11 Auto Leg A or +11 Illusion Sprint Mail & Shoes combo  is mandatory to play this build.

What I would like to point out about Windhawk is you might need to put more INT for faster VCT. Crescive Bolt and especially Gale Storm might need you to have higher VCT% in comparison to when you were just playing Sharp Shooting.


Another sad news is, Grace Set is way too good of a combo to break. That means if you have +11 Auto Leg A, but not having the Auto Armor / Engine Wing B, you gonna have a really terrible experience. This is caused by Grace Set giving good bonuses but only as a combo, if you break the combo, you will lose tons of damage and in the end switching to Crescive Bolt instead of Sharp Shooting is actually a worse decision.
Feel free to tweak the status build as you like. This status build is what Stormus personally use.
----e.g. I put lower INT and give some to STR so I can carry more stuffs when farming without keeping teleporting back to town.

# POW 100 > CRT 100 > CON 35
# CON 100 > CRT 90 > POW 45
The most popular build so far is the first one, netting around 732m per Crescive Bolt meanwhile the 2nd Build is dealing 627m (-14,4% Damage) ''Tested by Meer.''
 
Despite Crescive Bolt scales on '''CON''', POW and CRT seem to be way more impactful towards its final damage than the CON.
==Equipments==
Despite having unlocked Crescive Bolt early on, most beginner Windhawk will probably never get to play this build until later on. Mainly cause this build requires you to have -'''1sec FCT and 50% ACDR'''.  Getting the -0.5sec FCT {{#item:25067}} is really easy now. So I suggest on buying that costume stone while slowly building the item down below.
 
Grace Set is way too good of a combo to break. This means if you have +11 Auto Leg A, but not having the Auto Armor / Engine Wing B, you gonna have a really terrible experience. This is caused by Grace Set giving good bonuses but only as a combo, if you break the combo, you will lose tons of damage and in the end switching to Automatic Set is actually a worse decision. I recently talked to a newbie who read this guide, and apparently as a field farmer he seemed to be fine farming with Grace Set for quite long. If you belong to this group of people who love to field farm instead of instance farming, I think you should just buy {{#item:25067}} and get the OSAD Bow + Ignis LT and after that try push straight to Episode 18 Quests and see if you can farm Gray Wolf Gears decently.

This part is actually kinda not recommended to make. It serves as a stepping stone before getting to the real end-game build. '''If you think you can skip some gears listed down below or using the lower grade version e.g. [D] instead of [C], without actually impacting your farming sessions, then feel free to skip.''' I personally used these gears to make my farming sessions smoother. If you don't need the extra damage, just save up for the next tier.

The best way, I personally got advised, to refine your item from +0 to +10 during [[Grade Enhancing]] is just to raw refine with Etherium or Etheorodecon. This is cause '''''MuhRO actually have enhanced refinement rate compared to kRO''''' even using the normal ores. In average I spent 700 ores to refine an item form +0 to +10 only using Etherium. The table on the right side. You can start using the hammer from +10 to +11. I still gonna keep repeating this, '''only grade your item if you really need the extra damage to farm your next items.''' This is cause by the time I'm writing this (21st July), my excel sheet indicates that I just spent 200m (Elunium, Etel Dust and refining cost) to refine an item from +0 to +10 (1018 Etherium spent). If in average we spend 700x (140m) to do a grading cycle, and on this section if you do all the grading it will be 10+ grading cycles to be done. That amount of zeny investment for items, that you will not use anymore at end game, seem kinda wasteful in my opinion. So '''''only grade the item if you really need the extra damage for your specific farming spot.'''''

The test was done this way cause it would resemble the most scenario of farming something that is not related to your enchant. But if you get really good enchant on the Varmundt Ring, it will be way better to farm with it. (Tested by me, Stormus confirmed the same idea.)

Overview

Windhawk PvM Guide I made based on my personal journey in MuhRO and community's advices as well. I hope this helps!

Important Skills

These are few of the skills that I find important. If you are interested in deeper explanation, I would like to recommend you to read more about Archer Branch Skills here.

Archer

Skill Note
43.png Owl's Eye

These both skills are self-explanatory, incease your attack range and DEX per Level.

44.png Vulture's Eye
45.png Improve Concentration Incease your AGI and DEX by certain % amount. This skill is super helpful even at end game.
46.png Double Strafe Good single-target skill for beginning.
47.png Arrow Shower Good AoE-skill (Area of Effect) which allow you hit multiple monsters at a time for the purpose of leveling.
147.png Arrow Crafting Allowing you to create your own arrows from materials. We have custom Arrow Seller NPC in @go main, so no need to craft arrows by yourself. I usually only use this skill to make 1765.png Oridecon Arrow (1765) cause they are not buyable on this NPC and has the highest ammoATK in the game.

Sniper

Skill Note
382.png Sharp Shooting Thanks to the rework, this transcendent Skill is our main skill until job change to Windhawk. It has +50 base CRIT from the skill. AoE-style skill, spam-able and do critical damage is the biggest advantage of it.
383.png Wind Walk Increase Flee-Rate and Moving Speed to you and your party member, really helpful skill to move faster.
380.png True Sight Huge boost to Hit, Damage, and Critical Rate. This skill is a must to be spammed when you are fighting anything.
117.png Anklesnare Immobilize monsters, if being stepped on. Increase your survivability, and make your Potion usage even lower, cause you can kill the monsters while they are unable to reach you.
129.png Blitz Beat Allowing your falcon to attack. Usually helpful in cases where you have to kill monsters that only take "1" damage, cause Auto-Blitz Beat gonna hit them multiple time, while you are auto attacking.

Ranger

Skill Note
2236.png Aimed Bolt Single-target type skill that does NOT crit, but have 12 cells-range. NOT META.
2247.png Camouflage Allowing you to stay "hidden" while moving and increasing your damage the longer you are in Camouflage. Really useful in places with no Boss / Demon / Insect Monsters.
5002.png Unlimit One of your best skill. HUGE boost to your damage. Make sure to stay alive as long as possible.
2241.png Warg Rider Coupled with Wind Walk, this skill will allow you to move super fast anywhere you want to go.
2243.png Warg Strike Allowing your Warg to attack, and increase the damage too. Coupled with 2245.png Tooth of Warg, it will boost the damage even higher.
2248.png Trap Research Worth getting to at least Lv.1 to get the +220 SP bonus.

Windhawk

Skill Net Change in AP Note
5334.png Crescive Bolt +1 The current meta single-target skill. If 2236.png Aimed Bolt and 382.png Sharp Shooting getting married, this will be the kid. Brutally strong and DOES Critical Damage. Sadly only 9 cells-range.
5330.png Gale Storm +10 (3 Targets) The 4th's Job version of Arrow Storm. ONLY CRIT if 5328.png Calamity Gale is up. Kinda useful to restore AP against multiple targets.
5324.png Wind Sign +? Use this on the boss after using 5328.png Calamity Gale to quickly regain your AP back to 200. Not really useful for farming purpose.
5328.png Calamity Gale -200 The 4th's Job version of 5002.png Unlimit. It allows your 5330.png Gale Storm to crit and increases 5334.png Crescive Bolt damage. If used properly without dying, you will have 100% 5002.png Unlimit uptime by alternating between the two.
5327.png Hawk Mastery none Allows you to have Hawk together with Warg.
5326.png Hawk Rush Especially useful to kill Plant-Type target or the Dead Soul in Constellation Tower.
5325.png Nature Friendly Increases 5326.png Hawk Rush's chance to proc.

Sharp Shooting (Early Windhawk)

382.png Sharp Shooting Parameters Required for Maximum Potential
Fixed Cast Time (FCT) -0.5sec
After Cast Delay Reduction (ACDR) 72%
Variable Cast Time (VCT) The closer to Instant Cast the better
Critical Rate Required 50 + Target's Crit Shield

Example Status Build for Sharp Shooting Ranger Lv.185 :

Stats Allocated Base Points Priority Stats Effect Note
  • STR
70 Secondary Extra Weight to carry items, and small boost in statusATK

Primary means it should be your focus at the early game. You should invest most of your stats points to this. Secondary means in the early game you can put like 20-30 into those stats.

  • AGI
100 Primary Attack Speed and FLEE
  • VIT
70 Secondary MaxHP, and DEF
  • INT
97 Increase MaxSP, faster variable-casting-time, and SP recovery rate
  • DEX
120 Primary Boosts your Damage, ASPD (small bonus), faster variable-casting-time, Hit-Rate
  • LUK
100 Extra crit chance, slight boost in damage

This is the first choke point of being Windhawk. The transition towards Crescive Bolt will require you to have -1.0 FCT. 25067.png Cast Stone (Garment) (25067) is mandatory to get that FCT reduction.

Equipment Name Position

How to Get

Note

700043.png Paradise Ranger Crossbow (700043)

Weapon

10x 25223.png Eden Coin (25223)

Really good starting bow, available at Lv100. Use it till you can afford a better one.
400139.png Advanced Paradise Cap (400139) Head

Eden Gears

The HP and SP Leech is actually quite good. A cheaper alternative of 5208.png Rideword Hat [1] (5208) .
450090.png Grace Sharp Suit [1] (450090) Armor

Grace Set

Getting Grace Set should be your top priority after getting to Lv150. The combo effect is really strong.
480018.png Grace Attack Manteau [1] (480018) Garment

Grace Set

Mainly just to get the combo effect.
470020.png Grace Attack Boots [1] (470020) Shoes

Grace Set

Really affordable -0.5FCT. Definitely neeeded to spam Sharp Shooting
490019.png Grace Attack Ring [1] (490019) Accessories (Right)

Grace Set

You can use any accesory on your left.
24708.png Ranger Advanced Paradise Shadow Weapon (24708)

24693.png Advanced Paradise Shadow Shield (24693)
24694.png Advanced Paradise Shadow Armor (24694)
24695.png Advanced Paradise Shadow Shoes (24695)
24696.png Advanced Paradise Shadow Earring (24696)
24697.png Advanced Paradise Shadow Pendant (24697)

Shadow Gears

Eden Shadow Gears

A really strong shadow gears set that will last you for so long. Just rent it and do NOT buy.

Entry Crescive Bolt

5334.png Crescive Bolt Parameters Required for Maximum Potential
Fixed Cast Time (FCT) -1.0sec
After Cast Delay Reduction (ACDR) 50%
Variable Cast Time (VCT) The closer to Instant Cast the better
Critical Rate Required 100 + Target's Crit Shield
Useful Consumables Effects
  • +7 CRIT for 10min
  • +7 CRIT for 30min
  • +30 CRIT for 30min. Dispelled upon death
THESE ITEMS OVERWRITE ONE ANOTHER. MAKE SURE TO ONLY USE ONE OF THESE.

Example Status Build for Crescive Bolt Windhawk Lv.260 by Stormus:

Stats Allocated Base Points Priority Stats Effect Note
  • STR
3 Secondary Extra Weight to carry items, and small boost in statusATK


What I would like to point out about Windhawk is you might need to put more INT for faster VCT. Crescive Bolt and especially Gale Storm might need you to have higher VCT% in comparison to when you were just playing Sharp Shooting.

Feel free to tweak the status build as you like. This status build is what Stormus personally use.


e.g. I put lower INT and give some to STR so I can carry more stuffs when farming without keeping teleporting back to town.
  • AGI
105 Primary Attack Speed and FLEE
  • VIT
92 Secondary MaxHP, and DEF
  • INT
100 Primary Increase MaxSP, faster variable-casting-time, and SP recovery rate
  • DEX
130 Boosts your Damage, ASPD (small bonus), faster variable-casting-time, Hit-Rate
  • LUK
110 Extra crit chance, slight boost in damage

Traits (4th Job Status Build)

  1. POW 100 > CRT 100 > CON 35
  2. CON 100 > CRT 90 > POW 45

The most popular build so far is the first one, netting around 732m per Crescive Bolt meanwhile the 2nd Build is dealing 627m (-14,4% Damage) Tested by Meer.

Despite Crescive Bolt scales on CON, POW and CRT seem to be way more impactful towards its final damage than the CON.

Equipments

Despite having unlocked Crescive Bolt early on, most beginner Windhawk will probably never get to play this build until later on. Mainly cause this build requires you to have -1sec FCT and 50% ACDR. Getting the -0.5sec FCT 25067.png Cast Stone (Garment) (25067) is really easy now. So I suggest on buying that costume stone while slowly building the item down below.

Grace Set is way too good of a combo to break. This means if you have +11 Auto Leg A, but not having the Auto Armor / Engine Wing B, you gonna have a really terrible experience. This is caused by Grace Set giving good bonuses but only as a combo, if you break the combo, you will lose tons of damage and in the end switching to Automatic Set is actually a worse decision. I recently talked to a newbie who read this guide, and apparently as a field farmer he seemed to be fine farming with Grace Set for quite long. If you belong to this group of people who love to field farm instead of instance farming, I think you should just buy 25067.png Cast Stone (Garment) (25067) and get the OSAD Bow + Ignis LT and after that try push straight to Episode 18 Quests and see if you can farm Gray Wolf Gears decently.

Equipment Name Position

How to Get

Enchants & Card Note

+11 700054.png Virtual Bow-OSAD [2] (700054)

Weapon

OS / OSAD Weapons

  • ATK or ATK%
  • Critical Damage % or Long Ranged Damage%

Can even go without enchant.


2x 27361.png Polluted Wander Man Card (27361)
Stormus (One of our end game Windhawk):
OSAD combo is really affordable and strong set for beginners. Beginners should be able to farm this (Rudus F2) even with Eden Gears + Unlimit.

DO NOT CRAFT 18185.png Sharp Star Bow [2] (18185) yourself. It's not worth the price being paid and you better of using something else. Only buy from market if it's "cheap" e.g. below 25m fully enchanted +11.

+11 18174.png Illusion Hunter Bow [2] (18174)

Weapon

Illusion of Luanda

  • ATK or ATK%
  • Crit Damage, Ranged Physical Damage or ACDR%
  • Any tbh
  • Physical Damage to Normal > Boss

2x 27361.png Polluted Wander Man Card (27361)
Illusion Hunter Bow is a decent bow that I personally started with, cause I didn't know Virtual Bow-OSAD existed and is that affordable.
+11 400266.png Ignis Cap-LT [1] (400266) or

5208.png Rideword Hat [1] (5208) or

+11 400116.png Celestial Luxurious Crown [1] (400116)

Head

Equipment Crafting


OS / OS-LT Headgears
300150.png Abysmal King Dramoh Card (300150) Ignis Cap-LT combo with Virtual Bow-OSAD

The HP and SP Leech is better than 400139.png Advanced Paradise Cap (400139) .


Celestial Lux Crown prolly only worth using if you happen to find cheap 18185.png Sharp Star Bow [2] (18185) from market, and you use more Sharp Shooting than Crescive Bolt.

410093.png Sealed Chain (410093) or
410094.png Sealed Chain [1] (410094)
Middle Headgear

Niflheim Dungeon

4524.png King Dramoh Card (4524) Quite affordable yet really strong combo that will last you till end game.
Stormus:
The +15% HP increase by using King Dramoh x Deep Sea King Dramoh card is especially useful for Windhawk as we are tend to be squishy.
420076.png Bondage Necklace (420076) Lower Headgear

Niflheim Dungeon

Mid Game Crescive Bolt

This part is actually kinda not recommended to make. It serves as a stepping stone before getting to the real end-game build. If you think you can skip some gears listed down below or using the lower grade version e.g. [D] instead of [C], without actually impacting your farming sessions, then feel free to skip. I personally used these gears to make my farming sessions smoother. If you don't need the extra damage, just save up for the next tier.

Etherium spent to refine items from +0 to +10 from 17x attempts. Before the update on 27th July +9 > +10 = 18% compared to now 25%.

For those who never heard of Item Reform or Grade Enhancing, feel free to read more on that topic.




The best way, I personally got advised, to refine your item from +0 to +10 during Grade Enhancing is just to raw refine with Etherium or Etheorodecon. This is cause MuhRO actually have enhanced refinement rate compared to kRO even using the normal ores. In average I spent 700 ores to refine an item form +0 to +10 only using Etherium. The table on the right side shows the ores spent from +0 > +10 before the update on 27th July (+9 > +10 = 18% chance compared to now after the update 25%). You can start using the hammer from +10 to +11. I still gonna keep repeating this, only grade your item if you really need the extra damage to farm your next items. This is cause by the time I'm writing this (21st July), my excel sheet indicates that I just spent 200m (Elunium, Etel Dust and refining cost) to refine an item from +0 to +10 (1018 Etherium spent). If in average we spend 700x (140m) to do a grading cycle, and on this section if you do all the grading it will be 10+ grading cycles to be done. That amount of zeny investment for items, that you will not use anymore at end game, seems kinda wasteful in my opinion. So only grade the item if you really need the extra damage for your specific farming spot.

Thanatos Helmet Reform

basic version from Tomb of Remorse


300150.png Abysmal King Dramoh Card (300150)

Tomb of Remorse is one of the end game instance. I suggest try farming the mobs for Minneas with alt windhawk chars and leave the instance without fighting the first MVP, if you are not geared enough to solo it. Clearing the whole instance + the quests with a 12 man party is also possible. You will need Minneas to enchant your helm.

One of the strongest Lv.1 Armor in the game, but requires 4500x 1000405.png Amethyst Fragment (1000405) to do 3x determined enchantments (250m by the time I write this). Properly gauge if you need this armor piece or not. A player was selling the +9 end game armor piece 450172.png Nebula Suit of Creative [1] (450172) fully enchanted for 500m (Pre-Order).
480174.png Pirate Captain's Coat [1] (480174) Garment

300270.png Empathize Card (300270) Really affordable to craft, while being an end game gear as well.

A way better investment than getting Convertible Wings or Fallen Warrior Manteau, cause you will get to keep this manteau till end game.

+11 [C] 470094.png Hero Boots-LT [1] (470094) Shoes

Hero's-LT Boots Reform
basic version from Bioresearch Laboratory

300144.png Abysmal Merman Card (300144)

Mandatory -0.8sec FCT. Another piece of item that you will not use at end game. The sharp enchant is good, if you need CRIT rate.
Stormus:
Refine to +12 and use 300380.png Entangled Intermediate Rgan Card (300380) instead to get +20 CRIT Rate.
+12 470087.png Gray Wolf Boots [1] (470087) Shoes

18 Direction of Prayer

300380.png Entangled Intermediate Rgan Card (300380)

Stormus:
A better alternative especially to +12 to get +20 CRIT Rate from the card. Easy to enchant, easy to refine being Lv1 Armor.

I personally don't recommend refining to +12 on gears that you don't use at end game. I just wasted 200m trying to refine a Lv.1 Armor item from +10 to +12 (around 50x HD Carnium wasted). Only do it if you can afford the gamble.
490024.png Automatic Booster R [1] (490024)
490025.png Automatic Booster L [1] (490025)
Accessories

Automatic Equipment (17.2)

This will be your farming accessories thanks to the HP/SP Leech. You can even use this at end-game if you need HP/SP Leech more than damage. The +10 CRIT per accessory is also really nice.

Stormus:
Instead of using Drain Life and Drain Soul, just use potions and Incubus Egg. The last enchant slot can be then used for increasing damage.


Based on my old Guide I wrote, the All Force should be around 1% stronger than Attack Speed . Status: not confirmed in MuhRO

End Game Crescive Bolt

Current best in slot gears for non-MVP user based on Episode 19. Some of you might not noticed it, but MuhRO by design smoothens out the early gear progression. Farming these stuffs down below might be way more challenging than any part above, cause MuhRO tends to NOT smoothen the end game gearing part.

I still didn't make the Bow yet as of writing this, but my guess is 19484.png Temporal Circlet (Ranger) [1] (19484) would only be better if paired with the bow. Using the circlet with 700029.png Thanatos Bow-AD [2] (700029) probably gonna reduce your damage, cause you are breaking the combo. Status: tested and confirmed by Meer.

Despite not having ACDR enchant, this armor piece sharply increase your damage. You might want to recalculate your ACDR. Recommended to just buy from someone who farms CT.

300426.png Crux Findel Card (300426) +12 480174.png Pirate Captain's Coat [1] (480174) is less than 1% worse than the +11 Ice Rune Manteau (POW3,DEX4) but you have 5% more ACDR with it. A good reason to make 480232.png Ice Rune Manteau [1] (480232) is probably when you are farming the mob which matches your elemental specific enchant and have a way to compensate the 5% ACDR loss. Status: Tested and confirmed by (dmr Vague)
Stormus:
480174.png Pirate Captain's Coat [1] (480174) is better than 480232.png Ice Rune Manteau [1] (480232) , because the end game boss in Constellation Tower "Betelgeuse" is Neutral, Large, Dragon. PCC is better against Large enemy.

The 3rd slot enchant (Tenacity or Agilty of Varmundt) can be upgraded. (Thx to dmr for mentioning this)

IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO MAKE THIS ANYMORE especially if you are not using the Nebula Suit. I just put this here just in case someone can get it for cheap price.
Combo with 450172.png Nebula Suit of Creative [1] (450172) . Giving in total +16 CRIT Rate, 42% Critical Damage, 8 P.ATK and 2 CRT.
310706.png Star of Sharp Lv.5 (310706) will most likely the way to go, cause you can share this accessory with other crit classes as well.
310701.png Star of Master Archer Lv5 (310701) still somehow wins over 310706.png Star of Sharp Lv.5 (310706) by 1~2% damage difference, but you are losing 16 CRIT Rate by doing so. Status: tested by me.
The damage gap between 490135.png Stellar Creative Seal [1] (490135) and 490302.png Soul Rune Ring [1] (490302) is about 0.03% difference (Stellar Seal won). This is ignoring the last race/boss/normal enchant of the Varmundt Ring.

The test was done this way cause it would resemble the most scenario of farming something that is not related to your enchant. But if you get really good enchant on the Varmundt Ring, it will be way better to farm with it. (Tested by me, Stormus confirmed the same idea.)

Shadow Gears

No more eden shadow gears? I got you covered (based on priority, make the one on top first, slowly walk down to bottom). I have really good hunch about these Master Shadow Gears. Sadly can't get my hand on those yet. I heard people talking about how crazy expensive it is to enchant.

If you plan on min maxing the enchants I guess CRT > POW > CON would be the way.

Set R:
Get all shadow gears to +10 and get +5 C.Rate and Crit Damage% enchants on each piece!

Full Penetration combo should be the first priority cause having 100% DEF bypass is really important for general players without 4399.png [MVP] Thanatos Card (4399) .
Monsters like Grote in Nifl Dun F2 has 456 DEF. Which translates to -45% Damage for someone with 0% DEF Bypass.

Shadow Gear
Depending if you need ACDR more or farming Large monsters more you can put this shadow gear at higher priority than the reload.
+10 24679.png Maximum Mammoth Shadow Armor (24679) Armor
Shadow Gear
The only shadow gears I think "worth" getting to +10 due to the 12% to all elements bonus.
The reason I prefer +10 Max Mammoth Shadow Armor, instead of having the Max Mammoth Set on accessory slot, is because the unupgraded version of Mammoth Shadow Armor gives HUGE CRIT. It will make things easier to get the 140 CRIT just by having the non upgraded version.

There is ongoing talk going on Discord indicating that Little Isis is having wrong description and wrong script compared to Divine Pride. If this bug report is getting properly adressed, there's chance that Orc Hero might lose its throne.

Things that affects your skill's spam rate:
By the time I'm writing this guide 19th July 2023, MuhRO doesn't have Skill Queue. This means your distance to the server MATTERS for your skill spam rate.
  1. FPS. make sure to have 60fps or higher (by buying high refresh rate monitor)
  2. ACDR. Do you meet the required ACDR?
  3. ASPD. Do you have enough ASPD? e.g. 193 for Sharp Shooting
  4. Ping. How far are you to france?
    • Low ping (50ms) and high ping (200m) tend to have high spam rate.
    • Medium (120~150ms) and very high ping (250ms+) will grant you terrible spam rate.
    • If increasing ACDR doesn't give you higher spam rate, switch it out for damage.
