ROM: Secondary Class, Phirus Tokens, Mounts, Teleports



Sorry for the late update, my computer has died so having to wait for new computer to arrive, I will try and get a few videos out but i cant promise anything.

Classic secondary classes:

Mage/Priest: High DPS and can heal at the same time however very low health so very squishy also both draw from the same mana pool so mana can get very low sometimes.
Rogue/Scout: second highest DPS however yet again very squishy.
Knight/Warrior: The tank of the game, mild DPS with huge amounts of hp. no range pulls so most times you will have to kill multiple mobs at a time.
Mage/Rogue: A good combination. Highest DPS in the game and have separate energy/mana pools. however they are still rather squishy.
Knight/Rogue: Good combination of DPS and survivability. no real downsides to this combination.
(Knight/Warrior)/Priest: Don't use this combination. they draw from same mana pool apart from warrior has some skills that require fury. priest is hard to level and will have the lowest DPS in game.
Knight/(Scout/Rogue): High HP and ranged pulls with separate energy pools. another good combination for a tank hybrid

Quick Update

ROM: Knight/Warrior Tank



In this video i show you what sort of skill you need to become a tank and the reasons for them. i was quite pushed for time so here are the key skills, not so important skills and some other tips:

Knight Key Skills:
Holy Strike - Have it at 3/4 of your level and this will allow you to spam it without loosing mana too quickly
Enhanced Armour - Max this out. Its a must if you want to be a tank. adds a huge armour bonus
Whirlwind Shield - Max this out. Its an AOE so gives you another skill to mass damage mobs to keep aggro. Level 15 Elite skill boosts its damage.
Threaten - Max it out. This will allow you to keep aggro even with 4 rogues doing 10 mins of DPS on bosses
Shield Mastery - Max this out. Will give you even more armour bonus stacked onto your Enhanced Armour.
Hatred Strike - Max this out. Again this helps you keep aggro on bosses, coupled with Threaten you will never loose aggro

Warrior Key Skills:
Slash - Max this out. This skill is your main DPS skill so the higher it is the more damage and Damage = Aggro
Whirlwind - Max this out. Another AOE at your disposal, bit of a cooldown but keeps those pesky mobs interested on you
Defensive Formation - Max this out. Yet another defense bouns! adds defense to your party so your mages wont be so squishy :D

Skills you should get up:
Disarmament - Keep at level 0. This will allow you to get the 12% armour debuff on mobs without draining much mana atall.
Mana Return - Put points into it until it gives 200 mana per cast then leave it.
Resolution - Put points into it until it boosts your HP up by 1000, a waste of TP after that.
Shield Of Valor - Keep as high as possible, gives you more defense against mobs physical damage but it is a second priotriy choice
Shield Of Discipline - Again keep as high as possible because if you have alot of mages on you then this will absorb some of their attacks and deal 100 damage to each attacker.

More Videos coming soon so stay tuned.

Peace Out.

ROM: Daily Quest Powerleveling



Ok in this video i show you how to powerlevel your lower secondary class with your primary class's daily quest. this method allows you to accept quests that give higher experience than the ones you can access in your secondary class. this is much faster than grinding as:

One daily quest on secondary class using this method = 1190

1190 X 10 = 11900xp

1190xp every 5 mins x 10 = 50 mins for 11900xp

now at level 15 it is allmost impossible to get that amount of exp even with using exp potions grinding by yourself. you also get 100 phirus tokens which ill explain about in a later video.

ROM Quest Instance: Things that go bump in the night



Ok this is my first video so my commentary isnt vey good but it will get better.

This instance is for the quest Things that go bump in the night and i suggest a level 13 knight for a solo or a level 10 knight and a priest but you can also just go with a priest and maby 2 rogues and all pile it.

Tactics:

Stay to the left when entering and the goons wont attack you.
before you go to attack the boss make sure everyone is clear on what to do otherwise they may take aggro.
Once the boss is killed if your above level 12 you can run through the goons to the exit without getting attacked but if you are under that level then i suggest that if you have a knight for him to cast holy shield that will give the party 5 seconds to run through the goons and wont take any damage from them.

I will be making around 2 - 3 videos per week so send in your suggestions for new videos you want making and i will see what i can do.
