Take note, | Take note, the main appeal to performer is the large utility and party potential it provides while still remaining independent, this is a class played out of love.<br> | ||
This guide will also focus on magical dps Performer, specifically the skill Metallic Fury, I will be focusing on the skill as it is spammable, has a large AoE, can be any element and has low entry requirements. | You won't have the same DPS as meta classes like Ranger and Arch Mage, but still have more than enough damage (3b+ dps) to tackle all content with the right gear. | ||

== | == Leveling == | ||
Going from level 0 to 200 is your first major goal, silver arrows will be the most useful throughout most areas of play. | |||
Something that will help you significantly early on is eden group gear, you can attain eden group equipment by first joining the eden group after talking to Secretary Lime Evenor {{#navi:moc_para01|27|35}}, and then talking to the various equipment masters at {{#navi:moc_para01|107|79}}.<br> | |||
Start from the bottom and work your way towards the top, I recommend gathering the items for Louis's free advanced items, but find it easier to spend 10 eden group coins on Labraham's advanced weapon.<br> | |||
You can use the @wd <item name>, and @wi <monster name> commands to find where to locate the required materials. | |||
You can get normal eden group equipment at any level and advanced eden group equipment at level 100. | You can get normal eden group equipment at any level and advanced eden group equipment at level 100. | ||

After you have a reliable zeny income, you can make a +10 {{#item:1702}} and fill it with {{#item:4428}} to make leveling up future Performers a lot faster. | |||
== Gameplay & Skills == | |||
[[File:Performer stats conga new.png|right|Trouvere stat & trait assignment]] | |||
For stats, you want to max int, dex, spl and con</br> | |||
You should get a healthy amount of vit & agi for durability and fast animation speed, and dumb left over points into str, wis for carry weight & additional durability.</br> | |||
There aren't any specific tricks to pay attention to when playing Troubadour or Trouvere, just remember to keep your buffs up.</br> | |||
The songs you choose however, do matter.</br> | |||
[[File:Performer skills 01.png|600px|1st job skills]]</br> | |||
* {{#skill:43}}Owl's Eye | |||
* {{#skill:44}}Vulture's Eye | |||
* {{#skill:45}} | |||
Starting on 1st job and working our way to 4th, we'll max out our passive skills and attention concentrate for as many stat buffs as possible from the archer job, leftover job points can be dumped into the 1st job damage skills.<br> | |||
[[File:Performer skills 02.png|600px|2nd job skills]]</br> | |||
On 2nd job and onwards our skills will vary depending on the gender. | |||
* {{#skill:321}} and {{#skill:320}} | |||
* {{#skill:329}}Fortune's Kiss and {{#skill:330}} | |||
* {{#skill:5068}} | |||
* {{#skill:323}} or {{#skill:315}} | |||
For Male performers, you should get Poem of Bragi and your favourite song of choice (I recommend Assassin Cross of Sunset for GM events)</br> | |||
For Female performers, you should get Fortune's Kiss and Service For You, you won't use Fortune's Kiss outside of party play, but Service For You will be very useful for SP conservation while farming.</br> | |||
Skillful Professional Musician is also a critical skill to get for both classes, as well as reaching max level with Dance Lessons for more passive stat bonuses.</br> | |||
[[File:Performer skills 03.png|600px|3rd job skills]]</br> | |||
* {{#skill:2413}} | |||
* {{#skill:2412}} | |||
* {{#skill:2350}} or {{#skill:2382}} | |||
* {{#skill:5007}}Frigg's Song | |||
* {{#skill:2427}} | |||
* {{#skill:2434}} | |||
* {{#skill:2414}} | |||
For 3rd job, you should get Metallic Sound to level 5 as we'll need it for later, additionally, reach max level with Voice Lessons.</br> | |||
Depending on your gender, you'll either be getting Swing Dance or Echo Song.</br> | |||
Make sure to also grab Frigg's Song, Song of Mana and Unlimited Humming Voice.<br> | |||
Song of mana will be very useful for farming dungeons as it can single handedly supply your mana if continuously recast when off cooldown.</br> | |||
Unlimited humming voice will be useful for when we need a large amount of damage, such as when fighting an MVP or powerful group of mobs.</br> | |||
Frigg's Song will likely only be used when fighting enemies who deal a large amount of damage such as Depths mobs and is useful for those circumstances.</br> | |||
Reverberation is also a useful skill to have for GM events.</br> | |||
[[File:Performer skills 04.png|600px|4th job skills]]</br> | |||
* {{#skill:5356}} | |||
* {{#skill:5357}} | |||
* {{#skill:5349}} | |||
* {{#skill:5352}} | |||
* {{#skill:5351}} | |||
* {{#skill:5362}} | |||
* {{#skill:5364}} | |||
Finally for 4th job, we mainly care about maxing Metallic Fury, Sound Blend and Stage Manners.</br> | |||
Sound Blend will be critical for killing bosses and strong enemies as it puts a debuff on it's victims which causes them to take increased damage from Metallic Fury.</br> | |||
Also be sure to grab Mystic Symphony and Sonata of Kvasir, afterwards you can grab as many songs as you like.</br> | |||
I recommend assigning Serenade of Jawaii and March of Prontera to max level as well, as they will be your main 4th job buff skills for yourself and your party.</br> | |||
They won't be as significant as most 2nd and 3rd job skills are, but will provide useful benefits and become stronger if a fellow performer is in your party!</br> | |||
If you're alone, Chorus and Ensemble songs such as song of mana and invulnerable siegfred usually require a second performer to sing, but Sonata of Kvasir lets us cast them solo. | |||
== Gameplay (Arrows) == | |||
As stated in the previous section, there aren't too many tricks to be aware of, just be sure to keep your buffs up and you'll be fine. | |||
The only thing to be weary of is what arrow you currently have equipped as it will determine what element Metallic Fury uses.</br> | |||
Some enemies are immune to certain elements, while others may take 200% damage when using the right element against them.</br> | |||
Every enemy has a unique element you'll need to be conscious of which you can check using @mi <monstername> ingame (for example @mi Moonlight Flower), or by searching them on Divine Pride. | |||
=== | For the most part, holy damage is generally effective against almost all creatures except holy element enemies.</br> | ||
I recommend keeping different arrows on your hotbar to quickly swap between them when needed, as you can easily double your damage by using the right arrow or loose 75% of it by using the wrong one. | |||
[[File:Performer Hotbar Conga.png]]<br> | |||
Use whatever feels most comfortable for you. | |||
== Gameplay (Maximizing Damage from Skills) == | |||
Metallic fury is our bread and butter for doing damage, however by itself it can only do so much.</br> | |||
Let's say we have a Metallic fury which can hit for 100k damage, ignoring gear completely this is good, but we can do much better. | |||
First we'll cast Sound Brand on our target, this will increase the damage of our Metallic Fury on them from 100k to 120k, this is a fantastic boost against bosses but not so useful against regular mobs as it'll take more time than it's worth to cast sound brand on all of them. | |||
If we need more damage we can use Unlimited Humming Voice to increase our total damage by 40%, turning our 100k damage Metallic Fury into a 140k damage Metallic fury which is effective against all mobs. | |||
Of course, we can combine these for a multiplicative bonus of 168% damage for a 168k damage Metallic Fury, without even taking elemental vulnerabilities into account which will provide us with even more damage. | |||
As always also remember to add on Serenade of Jawaii for extra damage on top! | |||
== Stat Goals == | |||
Most classes will need to hit certain amounts of fixed cast time or after cast delay before maximizing their damage, but performers only need 20% After Cast Delay (ACD) to get the most out of their main dps skill Metallic Fury.<br> | |||
Poem of Bragi can provide 30% for free, but is only accessible to male performers.<br> | |||
If you are pursuing the path of being a Trouvere rather than a Troubadour, you will need to find a way to achieve 20% ACD through equipment alone. | |||
[[Equipment Crafting|New Wave Sunglasses]] are very useful for giving 10% ACD and an [[Illusion of Twins Equipment|illusion Silver Guard]] can provide an additional 5% if refined to +10 using Illusion Refinement Boxes. | |||
The remaining after cast delay reduction can be achieve through dim glacier weapons, but can prove to be very expensive to obtain early on.<br> | |||
A cheaper option to consider might be the [[Sinful Accessories|Sinful]] accessories as their set bonus provides 5% ACD reduction and do not need to be enchanted to provide this effect. | |||
Combining New Wave Sun Glasses, Sinful Accessories and a +10 Illusion Silver Guard, you can achieve 20% ACD as a trouvere without Poem of Bragi. | |||
Here are some other potential combinations to reach 20% ACD: | |||
* Convertible Magical Wing + Victory Wing Ears | |||
** 15%: Convertible Magical Wing + Victory Wing Ears Combo | |||
** 4% Victory Wing Ears | |||
** Note: This will only grant 19% ACD, but you'll only be short by 0.05 seconds so it will only have a small impact on dps. | |||
* New Wave Sunglasses + Isaac Wigner + Thanatos Accessories | |||
** 10% : New Wave Sunglasses | |||
** 5% : Isaac Wigner | |||
** 5% : Thanatos accessories combo | |||
* Death Rune Manteau + Shield + Isaac Wigner | |||
** 10% : Death Rune Manteau[A] | |||
** 5% : +10 Illusion Silver Guard or Mad Bunny-LT[A] or Mad Bunny-LT Enchantment | |||
** 5% : Isaac Wigner | |||
* Isaac Wigner + Illusion Silver Guard + New Wave Sunglasses | |||
** 5% : Isaac Wigner | |||
** 5% : +10 Illusion Silver Guard or Mad Bunny-LT[A] or Mad Bunny-LT Enchantment | |||
** 10% : New Wave Sunglasses | |||
* Other items of note | |||
** 1% - 10% : Gambler's Seal can be enchanted for variable amounts of ACD reduction. | |||
** 5% : Reload Stone (Dual) | |||
After achieving 20% After Cast Delay reduction you're free to pump damage as high as you can, which is exactly what we'll be doing. | |||
== Gear Progression == | |||
Based off [[Madame_Celery's_Guide_to_MuhRO#Gear_Progression|Celery's Gear Progression Table]] | Based off [[Madame_Celery's_Guide_to_MuhRO#Gear_Progression|Celery's Gear Progression Table]] | ||
For female performers, remember you only need to reach 20% ACD with your equipment, pick whichever combination is most convenient for you to hit 20%! | |||
Note: A +11 A grade Dimensions Instrument will be your first major increase in damage, followed by an A-Grade +10 fully enchanted Nebula Robe, and then an A-Grade well-refined Moan of Corruption.<br> | |||
Additionally, the moment you can get a Time Dimensions Rune Crown, it will easily double your dps output even with endgame gears, I strongly recommend making one the moment you have enough reputation for it.<br> | |||
Remember not to neglect cheaper equipment while you work towards these major pieces. | |||

[[ | |[[Equipment_Crafting#EXP_Advisor,_Vesper_Headgear|Vesper Helm]]</br> | ||
Note: You should only switch off of wickebine's black cat ears after obtaining full tempest shadow gear, as you will otherwise loose large amounts damage due to not having mdef pierce to bypass monster's mdef stat.<br> | |||
Additionally, I wouldn't recommend building a Vesper Helm unless you believe you absolutely need one, such as if you're doing purely solo play and need the dps to begin farming Depths mobs.<br> | |||
Instead, I recommend trying to buy a Vesper Helm from another player if they're selling it, however, if you believe you can hold on without a Vesper Helm long enough to get a Time Dimensions Rune Crown, it'll be a lot cheaper to go for the Crown directly and skip Vesper. | |||
|[[Varmundt%27s_Biosphere_Depth_2|Time Dimensions Rune Crown (Troubadour & Trouvere)]]<br> | |||
The Rune Crown combo with the weapon will spike in damage when the crown is +10 and both items are A-Graded. | |||

[[ | Note: You'll need the Time Dimensions Rune Crown and Weapon together to unlock the weapon's true potential.<br> | ||
You can also enchant the weapon for additional damage.<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Dim Glacier instruments aren't worse than dimensional instruments without taking the crown combo into account, but dimensions weapons have nearly equal damage and are a lot cheaper to make as they don't need enchantments to compete. | |||

Exercise caution when using the Meyer Lugenberg card, as it can cause SP consumption to be higher than what is sustainable with Song of Mana, which can be troublesome if farming without a {{#item:23203}}.</br> | |||
Evil Druid will grant immunity to shadow damage like bathory but will also grant immunity to being frozen, however, it will also come at the cost of being damaged when a Priest attempts to heal you.</br> | |||
The Clown Alphoccio MVP card will only be useful on female performers, as male performers already have the skill Poem of Bragi.</br> | |||
The Clown card can also be used on a piece of equipment you swap to rather than your main robe, as you only need to cast the skill periodically. | |||
|- | |||
|Weapon | |||
|{{#item:27384}} or {{#item:300455}} | |||
| | |||
|The Copo Card is best used with the Icewind Card, otherwise you will have no size multiplier against large size enemies. | |||
|- | |||
|Shield | |||
|{{#item:27385}} or {{#item:300465}} | |||
|{{#item:4128}} | |||
|Modified Senior Rgan should only be used on a +12 shield, as it will provide curses instead of boons otherwise.</br> | |||
You will also be sacrificing a very small amount of damage using Senior Rgan by breaking the white knight/khalitzburg combo, but will gain a significant boost to your survivability in return.</br> | |||
While the {{#item:4636}} may seem enticing as being highest dps possible from the shield card slot, you will still want to use a normal defensive card as you will need some amount of durability for most late game content and the damage gained will be inferior to using the {{#item:27385}} combo.<br> | |||
|- | |||
|Garment | |||
|{{#item:300260}}, {{#item:300123}}, {{#item:300424}} or {{#item:300375}} | |||
|Any 100% elemental boost card, best being Himmelmez | |||
|Napeo is a good budget option, but should be replaced once a better card is available. | |||
Purple Pitaya is my recommendation for depths as it'll be your main damage type for damaging mobs. | |||
One Eye Dollocaris should only be used on a +12 garment, as it will provide curses instead of boons otherwise.</br> | |||
One Eye Dollocaris, if put on the appropriate garment, will likely be the best card to use for boosting damage output as it provides a 33% boost to selected elements over Friedrich's 24% boost on a +12 garment.</br> | |||
While Friedrich boosts all elements over Dollocaris's select elements, Dollocaris's element pool contains the four most frequently used elements in the game as a Performer, particularly holy and shadow. | |||

| | | | ||
| | |The creamy card can teleport faster than flywings as the skill has no use delay when cast, but consumes an accessory slot which could be used to improve damage.</br> | ||
As an alternative, teleport shadow gear can also provide the skill without taking up an accessory slot, however, you will likely ultimately prefer the extra shadow gear slot with endgame equipment. | |||

== Dungeon/Instance Progression == | |||
Note: This list assumes you're using Guyak Pudding, Bubble Gum and the Teleport Spell for dungeon farming.<br> | |||
DPS references are done using the Main Office dummies, dps may be different in dungeon due to various factors but main office dummies will serve as a safe and consistent reference. | |||
As you gain more powerful equipment you'll be able to take on more powerful dungeons and instances.</br> | |||
It can be confusing to know where to start however, but here's my general recommendation for when it's a good idea to start farming a certain dungeon. | |||
The following list does not take elemental bonuses into account, so you'll need to think about that yourself before tackling a certain dungeon if you feel you're ready for it.</br> | |||
With that said, here's my general recommendation for progression: | |||
{| class="wikitable" | |||
|+ | |||
!Location | |||
!Damage Output | |||
!Notable Drops | |||
!Zeny Gained & Notes | |||
|- | |||
|GM Events | |||
|0 dps | |||
|Muh Coins | |||
|Varies depending on market price.</br> | |||
As of writing, Muh Coins are valued at 80,000 zeny each.</br> | |||
Most GM events will occur at @go 52</br> | |||
Be careful not to throw away all your coins when the slot machine appears. | |||
|- | |||
|Geffenia | |||
|100k damage per Metallic Fury | |||
|Almost everything | |||
|Every item earned here is NPC vendable, it is recommended to have a fully leveled haggler pass or have a merchant character you can move your items to before selling for 24% extra zeny per item.</br> | |||
With basic drop rate gear and bubble gum, it should be possible to achieve 50m per hour, however, your zeny/hr depends solely on how fast you can kill monsters.</br> | |||
For this reason, you may not want to use Metallic Fury here and instead use Reverberation as it has a much shorter 0.15s cooldown compared to Metallic Fury's 0.4s cooldown, allowing you to cast it much more often.</br> | |||
Your attack speed with reverberation will depend on how much After Cast Delay reduction you have, if you have fast cast time and fast attack speed, so your equipment will likely differ from your normal gear. | |||
You may want to start with metallic fury until you feel confident you can One Hit kill mobs with Reverberation, at which point continue using reverberation from there. | |||
Here is a useful @nolootid list by Teragram, to be used with @autoloot 100 for Geffenia:</br> @nolootid +2866|+15036|+1974|+2865|+1478|+12020|+509|+1009|+1919|+2864|+12370|+1004|+12736|+932|+5072|+1472|+12373|+7578|+5017|+2407|+2318|+2255|+2125 | |||
Remember to have an empty inventory aside from the bare essentials before starting as you will frequently be moving items between inventories while depositing farming loot. | |||
|- | |||
|Dungeon of Oz Floor 2 | |||
|5m damage per Metallic Fury | |||
|{{#item:1000405}}, {{#item:25729}}, {{#item:25731}} | |||
|Varies depending on market price.</br> | |||
As of writing, 1400 fragments can be consistently gained per hour with Bubble Gum & Guyak Pudding.</br> | |||
Assuming they're sold at 40,000 zeny each, this can earn 56m zeny per hour</br> | |||
Combined with raw zeny earned from killing monsters, you can easily boost this up to 67m zeny per hour. | |||
|- | |||
|Challenge Old Glast Heim | |||
|100m dps | |||
|{{#item:25866}}, {{#item:25867}} | |||
|Varies depending on market price.</br> | |||
As of writing, 21 fragments can be consistently gained per run at Challenge 10.</br> | |||
Assuming they're sold at 600,000 zeny each, this can earn 12.6m zeny per run</br> | |||
Additional item drops such as temporal circlet, spell fragments, temporal gemstones and NPC vendable items like {{#item:6610}} and {{#item:6609}} can also add to the zeny per run.</br> | |||
You will need to play the easier tiers to unlock the more difficult levels of the instance with more rewards, so you may need to do a few runs before you can gain the full rewards from this instance. | |||
|- | |||
|Niflheim Dungeon Floor 2 | |||
|100m dps | |||
|{{#item:12103}}, {{#item:25729}}, {{#item:25731}}, {{#item:1000322}} | |||
|Varies depending on market price.</br> | |||
As of writing, 20 branches can be gained on average per hour with Bubble Gum & Guyak Pudding using sub optimal gear.</br> | |||
With optimal gear (to 1 shot grotes), it's possible to earn an verage of 40 bloody branches per hour.</br> | |||
Assuming they're sold at 1.5m zeny each, this can earn 75m zeny per hour.</br> | |||
Taking the raw zeny gained from killing monsters (18m) and assuming you earn 200 Zelunium sold at 85k each (17m)</br> | |||
It isn't unreasonable to gain 65m per hour on average depending on the market rate for each item. | |||
|- | |||
|Varmundt Death Sphere | |||
|100m dps | |||
|All Biosphere unique item drops</br> | |||
For example: {{#item:1001141}}, {{#item:1000643}}</br> | |||
and {{#item:1000639}}</br> | |||
https://wiki.muhro.eu/index.php/Varmundt's_Biosphere | |||
|Varies depending on market price.</br> | |||
Most of the items dropped here won't immediately be for zeny gain, but rather for materials to work towards crafting and enchanting a {{#item:480233}}, which will be a critical piece of equipment for the endgame.</br> | |||
You may need a {{#item:50035}} to farm here until you gain better equipment to easily deal with mobs without the need of buff items.</br> | |||
Note that the monsters here have a very high amount of MDEF, so you will need some source of 100% mdef pierce to properly fight the monsters here. | |||
|- | |||
|Any Varmundt Biosphere | |||
|150m dps | |||
|All Biosphere unique item drops</br> | |||
For example: {{#item:1001141}}, {{#item:1000641}} and {{#item:1000638}}</br> | |||
https://wiki.muhro.eu/index.php/Varmundt's_Biosphere | |||
|Varies depending on market price.</br> | |||
As of writing, 23m raw zeny can be earnt per hour, combined with an average of 50 essences (at 300k ea), 200 runes (at 29k ea) and 10m from NPC vending Engraved Orlean/Varmundt Rune equipment drops, it shouldn't be unreasonable to make at least 53m per hour with an undergeared setup.</br> | |||
However, this is not taking into account the various Upgrade Stones which can drop from the biospheres which can be sold for additional profit.</br> | |||
Moreso, you'll obtain a significantly high drop rate on all items once you can begin to 1-hit kill the biosphere monsters.</b> | |||
It should be easily feasible to earn 66 essences, 150 runes and 500 fragments per 25 minutes once you can 1-hit kill biosphere monsters, note that this is with turning in the quest each time it is completed for maximum essences/hr.<br> | |||
The above results were posted per 25 minutes specifically as that's typically how long I take to clear all 15 subjugation quests for a particular biosphere.<br> | |||
Taking raw zeny from killing monsters and npc vending varmundt armor into account, it should be easy to earn 100m/hr this way if the items are sold at the right price. (Ideally at least 400k per essence) | |||
Be sure to check which biosphere items sell best on the market before farming.</br> | |||
You may need a {{#item:50035}} to farm here until you gain better equipment to easily deal with mobs without the need of buff items.</br> | |||
Note that the monsters here have a very high amount of MDEF, so you will need some source of 100% mdef pierce to properly fight the monsters here.</br> | |||
Remember to repeatedly turn in the biosphere quest for a guaranteed 2 essences from the related biosphere each time.<br> | |||
You can turn in these quests 15 times each day per biosphere, to maximize essence drops, you can switch to a different biosphere after you stop getting quest-completion essences from a specific one. | |||
|- | |||
|Thanatos Tower Floor 12 | |||
|7m damage per Metallic Fury | |||
|{{#item:25729}}, {{#item:25731}} and raw zeny | |||
|70m raw zeny per hour from NPC selling items</br> | |||
200 Zelunium per hour, assuming they're sold at 82,000 zeny each, gives 16.4m zeny</br> | |||
200 Shadowdecon per hour, assuming they're sold at 38,000 zeny each, gives 7.6m zeny</br> | |||
Combining everything together, it shouldn't be unreasonable to farm at least 94m zeny per hour here</br> | |||
You can increase your income by equipping [[Increase_item_drop_gears|Item Drop Rate Gear]] for more NPC vendable items, Shadowdecon and Zelunium</br> | |||
It is recommended to have a fully leveled haggler pass or have a merchant character you can move your items to before selling for 24% extra zeny per item.</br> | |||
To enter this area, you'll need to do a [[Thanatos_Tower|Short Quest]]. | |||
|- | |||
|Depths Floor 1 (Party Dps) | |||
|200m dps | |||
|All monster drops | |||
|It is difficult to calculate zeny per hour due to the various items drops from the dungeon, instead this section will focus on the reputation gained per hour instead.</br> | |||
Depths 1 Reputation per hour varies depending on the party, however 200 per hour should be a reasonable estimate with a good party.<br> | |||
For maximum reputation farming, take all quests from the npc at {{#navi:ba_in01|309|45}} and try to keep going until most of your quests are complete.<br> | |||
When most of your quests are finished, turn them in, re-accept them from the npc and make your way back to the party as soon as possible, repeat until the party finishes or you need to tap out. | |||
Before stepping into the dungeon, make sure you have some {{#item:50035}} for survivability, {{#item:12710}} to keep up with the group and a few {{#item:6316}} to revive yourself incase you die.<br> | |||
The One Potion and Siegfried Tokens can be bought with eden coins at {{#navi:moc_para01|51|31}} and {{#item:12710}} can be bought for cheap on the market, you can look at the market using @ws <itemname> or @ws <itemID>. | |||
Additionally bring about 100 {{#item:1100005}} for every 30m you intend to run in Depths 1 for, they will be useful for healing if you get in danger. | |||
This dungeon will test how effectively you can swap arrow types for damage, so be prepared if you plan to contribute to dps. | |||
When you're finished, you can turn in your {{#item:1001289}} to the General Manager at {{#navi:ba_in01|292|103}} for 3 reputation every 2 documents you hand in.<br> | |||
You'll need to reach 1,000 reputation for engraving [[Varmundt's Biosphere Depth|Soul Purification Rune Robes]] and 2,000 reputation to enter [[Varmundt's_Biosphere_Depth_2|Depths 2]] for crafting and enchanting Dimensional Items. | |||
Be sure to avoid selling any Temple, Purification or Soul related Depths items as we will be needing them for enchanting Robes once we have enough reputation. | |||
|- | |||
|Alice Twisted Madness Hard (Party Dps) | |||
|200m dps | |||
|All monster drops | |||
|Alice Hard is an instance which requires a party to complete, you'll want a source of magic dps (yourself), a source of physical ranged dps, a source of physical melee dps, someone to tank (elemental master) and preferably an AB to help as well.</br> | |||
If your party can complete the instance in under 20 minutes, you'll be rewarded with a {{#item:1001082}} which sells for 10m zeny as of writing.<br> | |||
Otherwise, you can earn a plentiful amount of {{#item:1001079}} which can sell for 200,000 zeny each as of writing. | |||
Your job will be to kill the vine monsters called Spades as they will only be vulnerable to magical damage, while your physical damage dealer handles the Absolem.<br> | |||
Additionally the final boss of the instance, the Jabbawocky, will only be vulnerable to magical damage in phase 1, but switch to being vulnerable to physical damage in phase 2. | |||
For this instance, you'll want to use fire damage to kill the Spades and holy damage for the bosses as it's their respective weaknesses. | |||
Additionally, when you find the portal at the end of the red maze, be careful not to enter as it will closely shortly after a party member steps inside of it.<br> | |||
Tell them the location of the portal and until your party is together, then step in the portal all at once to make sure no-one's left behind.<br> | |||
The items from this instance will be useful for upgrading your Mad Bunny shield into a Mad Bunny-LT, as well as crafting some other [[Alice_Twisted_Madness#Cards_in_Mouth|headgear]] [[Alice_Twisted_Madness#Gambler's_Seal|accessories]]. | |||
|- | |||
|Depths Floor 1 (solo dps) | |||
|1b dps | |||
|All monster drops | |||
|All the advice from the party dps section also applies here, by the point you have 1b dps you'll likely already have the Time Dimensions crown from depths 2 and won't need the reputation. | |||
The main resource to farm here are Temple, Purification and Soul related items to craft Soul Purification Rune Robes.<br> | |||
All other items can be vended. | |||
Remember to bring a {{#item:50035}} and {{#item:12264}} now that you're the main dps source.<br> | |||
Neutral element arrows will be faster to kill with over arrow switching as they can both damage almost every creature in the dungeon.<br> | |||
Additionally, since every enemy here is a boss-type creature, {{#item:4253}} and {{#item:9134}} are both very effective for damage reduction and increasing your own damage output. | |||
|- | |||
|Depths Floor 2 (party dps) | |||
|1b dps | |||
|All Time Dimensions Ingredients<br> | |||
For example:{{#item:1001552}}, {{#item:1001553}}, {{#item:1001555}} and {{#item:1001556}} | |||
|Note: You don't need 1b dps to get into most D2 parties, but 1b dps is more or less you minimum you want to effectively kill monsters. | |||
All the advice from the depths 1 party dps section also applies here, however, you will likely also want to bring {{#item:523}} to remove the curse status effect frequently afflicted here.<br> | |||
I strongly recommend sticking to neutral arrows in most scenarios due to large variety in monster elements in the dungeon. | |||
The amount you can gain will vary depending on your party, but you can typically expect around 60 {{#item:1001555}} and 20 {{#item:1001556}} per hour assuming your party completes the 3,000 kills quest within the hour. | |||
I recommend using @aloottype +6, along with @autoloot 0 and @alootid +1001550|1001551|1001552|1001553|1001554|1001555|1001556 to only pick up the useful crafting ingredients in this dungeon.<br> | |||
Remember to turn in your 450 kills quest frequently as it will reward a {{#item:1001556}} each time, you can ask your party what position they're closest to when you need to re-enter the portal for a shorter trip back to the group. | |||

== Miscellaneous Advice == | |||
This section is dedicated to other pieces of useful information which doesn't quite fit anywhere else.</br> | |||
Let's get started | |||
* Free Bubble Gum & Buff Potions | |||
** You can earn free bubble gum, battle manuals and buff potions by completing eden board quests and trading your eden coins in at the Eden Vending Machine {{#navi:moc_para01|51|31}}. | |||
** My preferred way to farm eden coins is in Abyss 4, by taking the Abyss 4 eden board quest {{#navi:moc_para01|52|37}} and the main office Abyss Lakes 4 quests {{#navi:main_office|123|36}} as you can farm {{#item:25223}} and {{#item:50001}} simultaneously. | |||
** However, the fastest place to farm solely eden coins is Varmundt Power Plant 2 due to the significantly higher monster density. | |||
* Casual MVP farming | |||
** Field MVPs can be fun to hunt, but remember use a bubblegum when you go to hunt them, BBG is nearly free thanks to Eden Board farming and a 0.08% MVP card drop rate is a lot better than 0.04%. | |||
** Further on this note, if used with guyak pudding, a single bubble gum is enough to clear all of Endless Tower or Endless Cellar. | |||
** MVPs also frequently drop {{#item:50034}}, {{#item:25729}} and {{#item:25731}} which are useful materials. | |||
** Random MVP drops such as {{#item:968}} and {{#item:25629}} are also useful for shadow gears, so shouldn't be abandoned. | |||
* Bloody Branch Popping | |||
** Are you rich and want to gamble for an MVP card? | |||
** If you have a large amount of bloody branches, you can pop a HE Bubble Gum and spam bloody branches for a chance at an MVP card. | |||
** On average, you'll usually want about 1,000 branches for 1 MVP card using this method, since while you'll have a 0.12% chance to drop a card on each MVP, not all MVPs spawned from the branch drop an MVP card. | |||
* Fly Wings or Teleport Skill? | |||
** While fly wings don't require a dedicated gear slot, they come with a short delay before casting teleport. | |||
** Because of this teleporting using the skill itself, such as with a creamy card, is much faster than using fly wings. | |||
* Cheap Reform Refines | |||
** When reforming items, such as a {{#item:28902}} into a {{#item:460020}}, you'll usually be given an option between a cheap option for -5 refine levels and an expensive option for -1 refine level | |||
** While it is immediately cheaper to take the cheap option, if you're interested in getting an item to +12 without concern for grading it in the future, it will ultimately be cheaper overall to purchase a Safe to +x Certificate one above your desired refine level and reform it using the expensive option. | |||
** This won't work for most equipment as the refine level will be reset upon grading regardless, but it might happen to come in useful one day under niche circumstances where grading equipment is not a concern. | |||
** As a 2nd reminder, this won't be useful for most equipment as grading will reset the refine level regardless of how high it is, this should only be used on equipment you have no intent to grade. |
