About Me

Hola, I'm Planta, a RO enthusiast, I've been playing this game for a very long time and I decided to finally contribute to the community.

Gunslinger has always been one of my favorite class in the game, (3rd job era Genetic will always have a special place in my heart), both in pre-renewal and renewal. I've always found fun the variety of playstyles that even at that time the class offers to you, and this increased as they added Rebellion and lastly Night Watch.

A disclaimer, I'm not an expert in how formulas work mathematically in this game.(e.g. doing a calculator on Excel) I can say that I have a vast knowledge on how the game works. Other thing to consider, not much people plays this class, so there's still some stuff to theorycraft, this guide is based on my experience and the gears I've used during my stay on MuhRO, if you're playing on another KRO like server and it has the ATK% stat working as intended, this guide would be useful for you too.

Remember that this guide has a PVE purpose.

Introduction

This guide aims to help any Gunslinger enjoyer on how to class works, how to play it, what to build and most important, loving the class!

Why play Night Watch?

Night Watch, commonly abbreviated as NW is a solid choice to players who are just starting out, or for people who enjoy doing things in a flashy style, they have a strong potential DPS and have some niche abilities that can benefit themselves or the party as well.

Is Night Wactch newbie friendly?

As I said, it's a solid option to begin an adventure, their skills are somewhat simple once understood, and even some of them can bypass DEF. Moreover, Expanded jobs have an easier way to achieve 100% DEF penetration.

Does Night Watch have end-game potential?

Yes!, thanks to Time Dimensions Rune Crown (Night Watch) [1] (400542) and the respective weapons, Night Watch is capable of doing any content in the game, especially if you're on the crit build.

---

Night Watch is the final evolution of the Gunslinger Tree, they were designed as Ranged DPS job, either single target or in area. Night Watches have a variety of weapons choices, they have on their arsenal Pistols, Rifles, Gatling Guns, Shotguns and Grenade Launchers, each one with its own unique mechanics.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Pros	Cons
Every Expanded Job advantage. (faster leveling, no rebirth)	Being an Expanded Job means less HP% and lower stats in general.
Access to the mayority of elements thanks to bullets.	No ghost bullet. (REEE)
Good farmer thanks to inherent DEF bypass on some skills.	Need more than one weapon, if you want to use more skills. [1]
Great for MVPing.	Always be on Wind Hawks' shadows.
Not having to worry about VCT%.	Low base health.
Guns have no sizes penalty.	Guns are two-handed weapons so that means no shield.
Access to bootleg Snap. Fallen Angel (Nephilim)	Skills scales with CON. (kek)

Weapon Choices

One thing that I like about Night Watch is that every skill will have a different function depending on which weapons you'll use. So, depending on what you do, the gun you use will matter.

Pistol

Also known as Revolvers.

By far the most iconic arsenal of Gunslingers.

Things to consider.

• Highest ASPD Base among every option.
• Able to use Fallen Angel (Nephilim).
• Access CRIT skills.
• Good for Burst things thanks to the good synergy between Magazine for One + Intensive Aim.
• Thanks to Wild Shot, pistols now have an AoE skill.
• Lowest base ATK of every gun.

---

Rifle

My personal favorite.

Rifles are very similar to pistols in terms that both enables Skills that can CRIT. They're are stronger than pistols but slower.

Things to consider.

• Medium ASPD base.
• Able to use Anti-Material Blast (Obliterator), a debuff that reduces target resistances by 50%.
• Access CRIT skills.
• Capable of doing the highest DPS of all builds, thanks to Time Dimensions Combo.

---

Gatling Gun

"It costs four hundred thousand dollars to fire this weapon...for twelve seconds." - Heavy Weapons Guy

Things to consider.

• No ASPD penalties.
• Good and big AoE skills.
• Mayority of them have DEF bypass by default.
• Decent single target damage thanks to Magazine for One and Auto Firing Launcher.
• Forgotten by Gravity. ⚰️

---

Shotgun

Shotguns are powerful weapons and it's viability will depends on the server you're playing. Here on KRO meta servers, shotguns are not very good sadly.

Things to consider.

• Strongest Skill Base Damage% of every gun.
• 2nd highest base ATK of every gun.
• Access to Banishing Buster (Exile), to dispell your enemies.
• 2nd lowest ASPD Base.
• Ground target skills have some cluncky animations even with high aspd.
• Forgotten by Gravity. ⚰️

---

Grenade Launcher

Without a doubt, grenade launchers are the specialists in large area damage. They are one of the best weapon options for farming.

Things to consider.

• They have the highest base ATK of every weapon in the game.
• Very effective against large groups of enemies thanks to their 11x11 AoE.
• Have the highest DPS for Pure Ranged Builds thanks to the Time Dimensions Combo.
• Lowest ASPD base of every weapon in the game.
• Ground target skills have some cluncky animations even with high aspd.

Knowing Night Watch's Skills

Credits to Penghaw for the table format, I really liked it!

Skill	Properties	Summary
Only One Bullet	Single Target 1s FCT 0.35s Cooldown 0.5s ACD	Requires 30% ACD reduction and 183 ASPD to spam efficiently. Pistol Since it doesn't crit, deals significantly less damage compared to Magazine for One. Can bypass DEF. By having low CD it turns great to kill weak monsters one by one. Rifle Can CRIT, resulting in a good single target DPS skill. DOESN'T Bypass DEF Once you have Time Dimensions Combo, this skill will autocast Spiral Shooting.
Magazine for One	Single target 1s FCT 0.5s Cooldown 1s ACD	Needs 50% ACD reduction and 175 ASPD to spam efficiently. Pistol Can CRIT, as a result, this skill is capable of dealing tons of damage. Stacks well with Intensive Aim, therefore, able to burst MvPs. Gatling Gun Deals massive single-target damage even though it cannot crit. Highest DPS skill for Gatling Gun.
Spiral Shooting	Entity Targeted AoE 1.5s FCT 0.5s Cooldown 1s ACD	Needs 50% ACD reduction and 175 ASPD to spam efficiently. Rifle The only crit skill that deals damage in area. With Time Dimensions Combo you can bypass the skill CD by spamming Only One Bullet. Kinda small AoE 7x7, compensated by Only One Bullet spammability. Grenade Launcher Deals deals damage in a massive 11x11 AoE around the target. Once you have Time Dimensions Combo, this skill will autocast Wild Fire.
Wild Fire	Ground target 1s FCT 0.5s Cooldown 1s ACD	Needs 50% ACD reduction and 175 ASPD to spam efficiently. Grenade Launcher Deals massive damage in a 11x11 AOE. Shotgun Deals more damage at the cost of smaller AoE 7x7 compared to Grenade Launchers.
The Vigilante at Night	Self target 1.5s FCT 0.5s Cooldown 1s ACD	Needs 50% ACD reduction and 175 ASPD to spam efficiently. Requires 1.5s of Fixed Cast Time reduction, meaning, is hard to use this skill with Drop Rate gears. Gatling Gun A 11x11 AoE skill around the caster is HUGE. Has innate 100% DEF Bypass. Shotgun Deals more damage at the cost of smaller AoE 7x7 compared to Gatling Guns. Just to remember, unlike Gatling Gun, when using a Shotgun, this skill DOESN'T BYPASS DEF.
Wild Shot	Entity targeted AoE 1.5s FCT 0.75s Cooldown 1s ACD	Needs 25% ACD reduction and 163 ASPD to spam efficiently. If you're using Time Gap Night Revolver it will need 45% ACD and 173 ASPD to spam efficiently. It deals more damage if Hidden Card is active. Pistol Finally an AoE (7x7) option for pistols. Rifle A 9x9 AoE. Thanks to Gunter Card (300598) this skill is strong even with 0.7s CD
Midnight Fallen	Ground target 1s FCT 0.7s Cooldown 0.8s ACD	Needs 30% ACD reduction and 165 ASPD to spam efficiently. It deals more damage if Hidden Card is active. Regardless the weapon, it has a 100% DEF bypass. Gatling Gun A 9x9 AoE. Good to extend your self centered AoE In terms of damage, is the lowest of the three weapons. Shotgun A 7x7 AoE. Good to extend your self centered AoE In terms of damage, is the highest of the three weapons. Grenade Launcher A 11x11 AoE. It can be used alternately with Wild Fire. In terms of damage, is in the middle of the three weapons.

Build Stereotypes

As you could see, Night Watches have a variety of Weapons type and Skills to specialize.

In summary, there are two big groups of builds; Pure Ranged Builds and Ranged Critical Builds. Let's ignore magic build and pretends it doesn't exists

Ranged Critical Builds

On Renewal Ragnarok, critical skills started to dominate the metagame years ago, critical attacks deals 40% bonus damage (140%), have the advantage to ignore FLEE and have max damage variance. To be able to make a skill crit (as long as it can crit), you'll need to increase your Critical Rate stat.

• Basically; if your Critical Rate is 10, you'll have 10% chance to crit.
• However, monsters have a Critical Hit Shield, this stat reduces the chance of landing a critical hit and its calculated by: [Enemy's LUK÷5].
  • E.g.

    
    Verdant Flora (21553) has a Critical Shield value of 36. That means you'll need to have a Critical Rate of 136 to ensure the crit.

• So, for being able to crit every mob in the game, a critical rate between 182~216 is mandatory.
• Reminder that every critical damage card, gear and buffs applies after the 140% critical damage bonus.

---

Back to Night Watching, physical critical builds aren't very diverse like Pure Ranged ones. Basically you're stuck with a Pistol, a Rifle or if possible both.

• Do you want to farm end-game content? → Use Rifles
• Do you want to kill things fast and move fast? → Use Pistols

By mastering gear switching (you should) you can do both.

If you are interested on gears, please check section 7.

Full Critical

The critical build has the most potential of every Night Watch build, you'll be able to do any content with it, from farming Varmundt's Biospheres with ease to bully some MvPs, including Betel and Rigel.

At first stance, we have this skills on our arsenal

• Only One Bullet
• Magazine for One
• Spiral Shooting
• Wild Shot

On a end-game phase you just use Only One Bullet, because it autocasts Spiral Shooting thanks to Time Dim Rifle and Crown.

Thanks to Time Gap Night Revolver [2] (800042) we can specialize in a Wild Shot build. Gear wise it will change because we need to achieve more ACD because we want to use Fallen Angel (Nephilim) right after Wild Shot or Rich's Coin, basically a bootleg version and gameplay of Inquisitor's Explosion Blaster. >70% ACD would be great

Pure Ranged Builds

Pure ranged builds don’t have all the benefits that critical attacks do. So, if we compare them, they tend to be worse. Still, some of them are more comfortable to use while still providing good results.

Since Night Watches have a ton of pure ranged skills, there are a variety of paths.

Grenade Launcher Build

This is the most viable ranged build at the moment. Grenade Launchers are one of the most powerful weapons at the cost of a big ASPD penalty, both GL skills have good skill base damage and huge AoE.

We have access to these skills.

• Wild Fire
• Spiral Shooting
• Midnight Fallen

On a end-game phase Spiral Shooting autocasts Wild Fire thanks to Time Dim GL and Crown, leading to big numbers.

Pure Vigilante

To be fair, The Vigilante at Night is such a comfy skill to use (I'm a enjoyer too), just lay down and press one button. Unfortunately, Vigilante is one of the weakest skills of the NW repository, it doesnt have a great base skill modifier and it's pretty outdated in gears, if we compare it to Rifles, Pistols and Grenade Launchers.

BUFF VIGILANTE

Grenades

Not to be confused with the Grenade Launcher Build.

Grenade skills were useful when Night Watch was first introduced, for example, it was one of the ways of having an AoE option for pistols, instead of using Fire Dance (Dance of Massacre). Nowadays, they're just filler skills to regenerate some AP.

On the other hand, i've seen good results using Auto Firing Launcher, so maybe it can be considered as an offmeta, niche and for fun build.

Grenade-type Skills
Name	Summary
Basic Grenade	Just like the name, it just throw a grenade. By being a ground target skill, having 0.3s CD, no ACD and recovering us 2 AP, it's a good way to fill our AP bar.
Hasty Fire in the Hole	Counter-Strike vibes.... Surprisingly not a weak skill, dealing 3 hits and having a scaling AoE up to 9x9, it has a longer cooldown than Basic Grenade tho, also, this skill has a hard animation, so it's a bit clunky to use.
Grenades Dropping	I like this skill. In an area of 5x5, drops grenades for 4 seconds that deals damage in intervals of 0.25s. Good skill but it has a RNG factor, sometimes dealing a lot of damage and other times not.
Grenade Fragment	I'll quote directly from skill description. "Adds elemental powder on the surface of a throwing grenade", wow. It works like Mild Wind. Grenades shares the element of your bullets, with this skill, we can have two elements at once, for example, having holy bullets with shadow element grenades. At level 7, the endow can be removed.
Auto Firing Launcher	This buff grants us the ability to auto-cast; Basic Grenade, Hasty Fire in the Hole and Grenades Dropping, you'll need to have them learned to be auto-casted. Combined with 193 ASPD, it has a very high chance to proc. You won't recover any AP from auto-casted skills.
Mission Bombard	One of our two ultimate skills, a heavy multi-hitting ground AoE. Basically a barrage of grenades. They do okayish damage and it cost 35 AP per use. Use it at Christmas Event!

Auto-Attack ASPD Build

Only for MuhRO

With the Christmas event on MuhRO, I've seen a lot of Night Watches hunting plant-protocol monsters (any monster that will always take 1 damage). This excited me a bit, because, it's always good to see more NWs~.

The main focus of this build is landing as many hits as possible in the shortest amount of time, to achieve this, we will focus on gears that provide us the ability to autocast others skills as we auto-attack. For this reason, similar to the Grenade-type build, we will using Auto Firing Launcher.

Being a Night Watch

Stats and Traits

Like every guide, of course it will have a stats and traits section.

Stats

STR	STR will offer us little ATK, but, it increases weight capacity, so go for it.
AGI	More AGI means more ASPD and that means less Delay between Animations.
VIT	We want HP, we are squishy :(, and also provides some status inmunity.
INT	INT will help us on our SP pool and some status inmunity.
DEX	Our main stat for dmg, you want to 120 it.
LUK	Every 3 Luk points it adds +1 Status ATK, cheaper than STR, also great for CRIT and Curse inmunity.

Traits

POW	ATK goes BRRRR, literally a adds a final modifier (P.ATK) for damage calculation.
STA	Adds RESistance for physical damage.
WIS	Adds Magical RESistance for magical damage.
SPL	We don't want SPL, because we ain't mages, unless...
CON	CON will helps us with HIT, FLEE and P.ATK, also our Skills scales with it.
CRT	Every 3 points in CRT it will add 1 of our beloved stat C.RATE. Useful for Crit Builds.

For more detailed explanations on stats and traits, please visit the Stats page.

Stat Distribution

It depends on the build you will be using.

🐤	Critical	Ranged
STR	0-90	0-90
AGI	90	90
VIT	90-120	90-120
DEX	120	120
LUK	89	0-100
POW	110	110
STA	0	0-72
WIS	0	0-72
CON	72	110
CRT	110	0

It's totally viable to sacrifice some points on CON and add them to STA or WIS if you're having trouble to survive some attacks

Important Skills

In this section, only the most important skills will be mentioned.

Gunslinger

Skills
Name	Level	Summary
Coin Flip	5	Coins works exactly like Monk's Call Spirits, they are catalyst for some skills and give us some Mastery ATK.
Increase Accuracy	1	Adds +20 HIT aswell as +4 points in DEX and AGI, free stat buff, get it.
	1	A situational buff, +30 FLEE and 20% less damage on ranged attacks, has a 30s duration, could be useful in some scenarios.
Single Action	10	A passive skill, free +20 HIT and 5% ASPD, max it.
Snake Eyes	10	Another passive skill, at level 10 boost our HIT by +10 points and give us +10 Range on basic attacks.
Chain Action	10	It's Double Attack for pistols, max it too.
Rapid Shower (Trigger Happy Shot)	7-10	A pistol exclusive skill. A glorified Double Strafe, good for leveling meanwhile we are a rookie Gunslinger.
Desperado	10	A pistol exclusive skill. Desperado was always a strong skill, an 7x7 AoE around us, hits are random up to a max of 10 each cast. A must to have.

Rebellion

Skills
Name	Level	Summary
	1	Champion's Dangerous Soul Collect (Zen) but with a CD, pepehands. Calls up to 10 coins at the cost of 100 zeny.
Platinum Alter	5	Oh boi, one of our best buffs, a whopping 150 ATK and shield of 25% of our health, the ATK buff scales with the number of coins we have summoned, so use it after Rich's Coin, it doesn't have cooldown. Can't be used alongside Heat Barrel, Adjustment and Madness Canceler. This skill only works if Purifying Bullet (13220) or Silver Bullet (13221) are equipped. Bullets can be endowed.
Heat Barrel (Acceleration Bullet)	5	Another good buff, not as good as Platinum Alter tho, with 10 coins will give us 160% ATK, 20% FCT reduction and +5 flat ASPD. Keep in mind that this ATK boost for skills is just additive, thus, acting similar like Maximum Power Thrust. If we compare it with Platinum Alter, is a small boost on skills. On the other hand, for basic attacks it's basically double damage for 1 minute. Can't be used alongside Platinum Alter, Adjustment and Madness Canceler.
Fallen Angel (Nephilim)	1	A pistol exclusive skill. The baby form of Body Relocation. Teleports you to the targeted cell, consumes a coin and it has a range of 9 cells. At higher attack speed, it will feel smoother, try going to 193 ASPD.
Binding Trap (Dark Pit)	5	A trap skill. It lays down a 7x7 trap on your position, affecting enemies' movement speed, there can be only one trap active at a time tho. Needs 1 Special Alloy Trap (7940) and a coin. This skill works on bosses.
Eternal Chain (Infinite Chain)	10	Enables Chain Action for any gun. Chain Action level will depend of the skill level of Eternal Chain.
Round Trip (Circle Dance)	10	A Gatling Gun exclusive skill. Personally I find Round Trip to be one of the best skills in the game, it has great damage, a massive 13x13 AoE, and deals extra damage if targets are knocked back into a wall (this extra hit is guaranteed on bosses because they are immune to KB). Additionally, there are tons of gears to improve it. A must-have skill.
Fire Dance (Dance of Massacre)	0 or 10	A Pistol exclusive skill. Back in the day, Fire Dance was one of the highest DPS skills for Rebellion. Even in the early days of 4th jobs, this skill used to achieve good results. Currently, it remains a viable option for leveling, alongside Round Trip. It requires around 66–72% ACD reduction, though I can't recall the exact value. For this reason, you want to choose Round Trip for leveling.
Anti-Material Blast (Obliterator)	5	A Rifle exclusive skill. A debuff we have at our disposal, it cuts to half enemies resistances, working like a pseudo Comet, it has a 70% chance to hit. Cooldown can be reduced with Finisher [2] (28223) . Very good skill, a must.
Banishing Buster (Exile)	10	A Shotgun exclusive skill. A powerful shot capable of removing buffs of your enemies, working like Dispell, chance increases depending the level, it has 100% at level 10, you can reduce the cooldown through gears. A good situational skill, a must have too.
Crimson Marker (Blood Brand)	1	Marks your enemy with a Crimson Death Mark, once it's marked you can see your enemies through the mini-map. Useful if a MvP teleports away. Lasts 50 seconds and consume a coin.
Fire Rain (Fire Deluge)	5	A Gatling Gun exclusive skill. A strange one to be fair, shots a barrage of bullets in 3x10 area, capable of removing ground effects (e.g. Pneuma, Land Protector), it has a long cooldown and a 40% chance to work. Very situational and mediocre, it's hard to use this skill correctly because sometimes it goes to the wrong direction. If you're using Rebellion Stone (Mid) (1001048) max it, otherwise, skip it.

Night Watch

Skills
Name	Level	Summary
P.F.I	10	Night Watch's most basic skill, a free stat booster, max it unless you wanna do something crazy with your skill tree lmao.
Grenade Mastery	10	Same as above, free +10 CON, it also boost the damage of Grenade-type skills.
Intensive Aim	1	This skill is interesting. Once activated you'll enter an Intensive Aim state. While is active, you'll gain 150 ATK, 250 HIT and 30 Critical Rate, however, you won't be able to move. Every 0.5 seconds you gain a stack of Aiming Count, up to 10. These Aiming Count stacks multiply the damage of your skills. For example, when using a pistol, Magazine for One has a Aiming Count multiplier of 500, meaning at 10 Aiming Counts you'll have a extra 5000% of skill damage. Once a skill is used, your Aiming Count will reset to 0 and it will have to recharge it again up to 10. Using Fallen Angel (Nephilim) is the only way to move around while Intensive Aim is active.
Hidden Card	10	One of our two ultimate skills, at the cost of 150 AP, we gain 100% Ranged Physical damage and +30 P.ATK. A no brainer, max it ASAP. why it can't be like unlimit :(

Gears

Critical Build

Slot Item Enchants Notes Headgear (Top) +9 ~ +11 Temporal Circlet (Rebellion) [1] (19488) Acute Lv5 (29085) Temporal Jewel (LUK) Lv 3 (29689) Acute is the most important enchant on this hat, yes, Temporal Jewel is strong, but, Temporal Gemstone (25865) skyrocketed in price. Another way to obtain this enchant is to reroll it with Temporal Fragment (25867) . Obtainable in Old Glast Heim: Challenge Mode. Headgear (Mid) Sealed Chain (410093) Sealed Chain [1] (410094) 🐥 Perfect item for us, crit damage, rate and ranged mod. Farmable in Niflheim.

On the other hand, every Glacier set is cheap to craft, even, people tends to throw them away, don't be shy and ask one in #global!. See the episode quest 20 The Immortal for related info. Weapon +9 Glacier Rifle (810010) Glacier Flower Spell (Spiral Shooting) (311327) Glacier Flower Spell (Physical-Race) (311348) Glacier Flower Spell (Skill Delay) (311347) Glacier Flower Spell (CRI) (311344) Any Glacier weapon is a huge boost in our damage output, they are cheap and easy to make, same as above, peoples have thousands of the material needed for the enchants, just ask if they can give you a enchanted one, even I would to that for you.

Accesories Grey Wolf Ring [1] (490107) x2 Wolf Orb (Critical) Lv.4 (310632) Now I eat my words for the Gray Wolf Armors, but, the enchants on this accessory are so damn good. +30 Critical rate and some critical damage? can't say no to that. See the episode quest 18 Direction of Prayer for detailed info. Varmundt Soul Rune Ring [1] (490299) Tenacity of Varmundt Lv1 (311949) OR Focus of Varmundt Lv1 (311959) These base Varmundt's rings are super cheap and strong, keep in mind that Focus, will only benefit crit builds, unlike Tenacity, that can be shared to any character or build. Take a look in Varmundt's Biosphere to see how this dungeon and their gears works.

End-game Gears

Slot Item Enchants Notes Headgear (Top) +12 ~ +15 [A] Time Dimensions Rune Crown (Night Watch) [1] (400542) Acute Jewel Lv5 (312753) Time Dimension Jewel (Luck) Lv3 (312712) This headgear should be one of the first things you'll craft, grading it should be a priority because it will enable to auto-cast Spiral Shooting when using Only One Bullet. See Varmundt's Biosphere Depth 2 for detailed info. Headgear (Mid) Gambler's Seal [1] (410233) x2 5% Ranged mod OR x2 5% Crit damage Choosing between ranged or critical mods will depend on how much we have of each one. Try to find a balance between them. Headgear (Low) Ace of Diamonds in Mouth (Ranged Physical) (420220) Any stat AND 7% Ranged mod 🐣I like VIT🐣 Armor +12 ~ +15 [A] Nebula Suit of Creative [1] (450172) Star Cluster of Concentration Lv.3 (310682) OR Star Cluster of Creative Lv.3 (310685) Nebula of Expert Archer Lv.3 (310732) Nebula suit is the best in slot Armor, it combos with HoL[2] gears. See Constellation Tower for detailed info. Star Cluster of Concentration Lv.3 (310682) can be used with other Critical Ranged jobs. Star Cluster of Creative Lv.3 (310685) Can be used with Windhawks as well. Weapon +12 ~ +15 Dimensions Night Rifle [2] (810040) Personal preference 🐣 This rifle was a game-changer for us. As I said above, it enables to autocast two powerful skills, the best part is that this rifle is easy and cheap to craft. See Varmundt's Biosphere Depth 2 for detailed info. +12 [A] Dim Glacier Pistol [1] (800015) Glacier Flower Spell (Physical Grade) Lv5 (311453) x2 Glacier Flower Spell (Magazine for One) (311328) Our loved Dim Glacier Pistol, it will give us movement, damage, and AoE, good to have to switch.

Thanks to Patch Note #173 it's way more accessible to craft and enchant it. It has combos with Nebula Suit and Signet of Circulation. Take a look on Divine Beast's Cloak: Winter to understand how this garment works. Shoes +12 [A] Gaebolg Boots [1] (470260) Forest Magic Orb (Firing Shot) (313097) Forest Magic Orb (Size Attack) (313094) Forest Magic Orb (HP) (313090) I really like these new pair of boots, a good generalist piece of armor, a way better Glade and Ice Boot. Good damage and give us a lot of HP%. Remember to fully enchant and upgrade it before reform them to Yorscalp Boots . Obtainable in the episode 21 Age of Heroes. Accesories Creative Signet of Star [1] (490135) Star Cluster of Luck Lv5 (313033) x2 Star of Sharp Lv.5 (310706) Why Star of Sharp instead of Star of Master Archer Lv5 (310701) ? Some upcoming cards will reduce our critical rate, so it's important to have the highest critical rate possible to mitigate this loss. See Constellation Tower for detailed info. Signet of Circulation Winter [1] (490486) Signet of Creative Lv5 (313006) OR Signet of Concentration Lv5 (312991) Token of Life (312981) A awesome accesory, not too much to say, just give it a look. For more detailed info. Check Circulation of Life Accessories to see more detailed info about this accesories. Signet of Creative Lv5 (313006) needs Star Cluster of Creative Lv.3 (310685) .

Flare Dance Shadow Earring (24604) Rebellion Shadow Armor (24402) 🍂 Early to Mid-Game If we combine these Shadow Gears with the set shown above, we can achieve 100% DEF bypass along with several other stats. Concentration Stone (Dual) (311355) 🍂 Any A cheap option, sometimes gives more damage than Power Stone (Dual) (311471) , it will depend on your Traits. +12 [A] Pirate Captain's Coat [1] (480174) 🍂 End-Game A cheap garment and it's stronger than a clean +12 [A] Circulation of Life Winter . However, recent patches made Circulation of Life Winter easier to craft and enchant, so Pirate Coat is a skip. Check the recipe at Equipment Crafting. +11 ~ +12 [A] Engraved Corruption Poison Rune Cloth [1] (450285) Corruption Poison Rune Lv10 (312394) Poison Rune Lv5 (312384) Corruption Rune Lv5 (312379) End-Game Now that Lake of Fire materials are easier to get, it's better to go straight to Nebula Suit of Creative Still, Depth armor is strong vs bosses and has good defensive stats. See Varmundt's Biosphere Depth for detailed info. Because of Corruption Poison Rune Lv10 (312394) you'll need to have 120 base LUK to get the most out this enchant. +12 [A] Ice Rune Boots [1] (470175) Personal preference but Lv4-5 Power of Varmundt Lv3 (310922) OR Creative of Varmundt Lv3 (310932) End-Game Ice Rune Boots are better than Gaebolg/Yorscalp only if the 2nd enchant is level 4 or 5 and you're hitting the right element monster. Probably the same for Glade Rune Boots . For a normal day Episode 21 Boots are stronger and makes you bulkier. Craftable in Varmundt's Biosphere. +12 [C to B] Dim Glacier Manteau [1] (480283) Grace of the Snake God (312157) Malice of the Snake God (Atk) Lv10 (312146) Malice of the Snake God (Def) Lv10 (312136) Mid to End-Game A strong and cheap option for ranged users, almost on par with a clean +12 [A] Circulation of Life Summer [1] (480350) . See the episode quest 20 The Immortal for related info. +11 ~ +12 [A] Engraved Ice Storm Rune Suit [1] (450283) Ice Storm Rune Lv10 (312354) Storm Rune Lv5 (312344) Ice Rune Lv5 (312339) End-Game Things are little different when we are not crit users, this Depth armor tends to do better results than Nebula suit, both normal and boss protocol monsters, until HoL gears, this should be better. Nowadays a skippable gear. See Varmundt's Biosphere Depth for detailed info.

Discussion

1. Engraved Corruption Poison Rune Cloth vs Nebula Suit of Creative

• If we compare both armors separately, the Depth armor sure is a winner, however, if we consider every piece of gear we have, Nebula suit have a more potential to be a better armor.

Analysis
Has inherent 10% ACD at +11.	Need combo with Signet of Circulation: Winter for 10% ACD.
It has more defensive stats.	It does not have def stats, besides the ones that come by default by being an armor.
20% Boss, thanks to Poison Rune Lv5 and Corruption Rune Lv5	15% Boss with Token of Life and Star Cluster of Luck Lv5 , however, both of this enchants give us more stats than Poison/Corruption enchants.
Due to Corruption Poison Rune Lv10 we're forced to use 120LUK.	This armor doesn't have this issue.
Once refined and graded it's ready to use.	Full potential behind a timegate or (at the moment) super expensive materials.

2. Which enchants should I pick for my Dimensions Weapon/Time Gap Weapon/Varmundt Gear?

• I'll answer this question with some examples:

• If you're farming Depths 2 → Varmundt's Crystal (Flame) Lv3 (311864) , Varmundt's Crystal (Plain) Lv3 (311874)
• If you're farming Biosphere Temple → Varmundt's Crystal (Ice) Lv3 (311869) , Biosphere Gem (Vibra-rupt) (311934)
• If you're farming Biosphere Venom → Biosphere Gem (Hunting Divine) (311940)
• If you're farming Biosphere Soul/Depth 1 → Varmundt's Crystal (Death) Lv3 (311879)
• If you're killing Betelgeuse (20994) → Varmundt's Crystal (Poison) Lv3 (312800) , Biosphere Gem (Dragon Fishing) (311928)
• If you're killing [4] (22174) → Varmundt's Crystal (Poison) Lv3 (312800) , Biosphere Gem (Vibra-rupt) (311934)
• If you're killing Demigod Lasgand (21981) → Biosphere Gem (Hunting Divine) (311940)
• If you're killing Encroached Tan (22373) → Biosphere Gem (Execu-sect) (311937)

3. Should I use Nightwatch Stone or Guillotine X II Stone ?

• TLDR: If you're using Rifle use NW Stone; If you're using Pistol use GX-II Stone; If you're swaping weapons use GX-II Stone.

Results
🐤	NW (U+M+L+G)	GX II Stone (L+G) + Rebel Stone (U+M)
Only One Bullet	18,716k	19,709k
Spiral Shooting	26,343k	25,839k
OOB+SS	45,059k	45,548k
Maganize for One	33,213k	32,767k
Wild Shot	21,627k	22,768k

• If you have Nightwatch Stone but you're not using Magazine for One, Gunslinger Stone (Low) (25857) as a replace of Rebellion Stone (Low) (1001049) is a good choice to replace. Highest SS damage, middle WS and OOB damage.

4. Which one is better, ¿CRT Build or CON Build?

• Tested with gears on section 7.1

6. DPS Test

• Tested with gears on section 7.1
• (Skill1+Skill2) means weaving/chaining skills. This isn't very accurate because it heavily depends on your ping and how many ACD% you have. Take it with a grain of salt.

Results
TDRC+Dimensions (Ele+Race)	161m
TDRC+Dimensions	109m
Dim Glacier + Yorscalp (M41)	95~106m
Dim Glacier + Yorscalp (M41+WS)	94~111m
Time Gap + Yorscalp (M41+WS) (Ele)	94~102m
Time Gap + Yorscalp (M41+WS)	84~92m

7. +12 TDRC vs +15 Yorscalp Crown for Wild Shot

Results
TDRC + Time Gap	35.1k
Yorscalp + Time Gap	47.9k
