Well, this is to the best of my knowledge. Magic/summoning rocks cost 5k from Alcaster in El Nath (if of course you are above level 60) so im guessing they will sell for around 3.5-4.5k from people who find them.

Magic door is going to be usful imo for a few reasons:
Hermits/sins in your party will gladly pay you 5k to open the door for them to recharge stars which, in the end, means more exp for you. Also random people may pay you around 10-15k to allow them to go recharge or repot. So after consideration I've decided to put one point into Mystic Door right away (well i get 18 SP anyway lol).

Ok here comes the answers to the questions that I am attempting to answer:

Magic amp, from what I hear, is a DEFINATE priority, I wouldnt wait as long as you are planning to max it. As for explosion : composition, I have no idea which is more useful, but mostly explosion like you said. If nothing else check sw.net for the 3rd job magician FAQ (forget who posted). Should give you a general idea for you to base your build off of.

Well there you go, best I can do, might've missed something but oh well. =P

I guess I can be of some sort of assistance for clerics at least. From the limited English that my friend on jms told me, you only need a magical rock to actually start putting points into the skill. I wasn't quite sure because she herself did not understand what I was asking. She maxed holy symbol and is leaving door at 1 mainly because you can keep on casting it and get everyone back in the fight. She maxed ray after holy symbol and I think she said she was going to max summon dragon. Not sure on the summoning rocks howerver though. I have no idea for the build that I'm going to use mainly because I have a while to think about it. I'm still debating on wheter or not I really want arrow rain mainly because it is almost the exact same thing as fire arrow. Also, I really regret being an hunter right now because watching some snipers on jms were just amazing. Arrow Erution has the same range as ice strike, hitting EVERY enemy on the screen at once. And Ice is totally kick ass too. Puppet I 'm leaving at 5 or so mainly because I will only really need it in emergencies. Max Strafe first, then I might go with fire arrow. Not sure on this one mainly because I don't know a lot about 3rd job archer skills. The passive walking speed skill (forgot the name) is going last because it is only something extra. Any suggestions on some builds for archers? I am currently a Double shot and Arrow blow archer with no final attack.

Door requires 3 into Dispel. But it is a very rockin' skill.

Also Chromer, if I gave you any money at all, it was Bera money. What I have is Scania money. I can't trade between servers.

Also x2: List of things that might come out with the now-delayed patch:

Windia (New Server)
Ludibrium / Theme Park
New Interface (cursor, buttons, etc)
Pets
Third Job Advancement
70+ Item drops
Website expansion (3rd job info, pet info, etc)

Certainties:

Torr's quest.

This has turned into a FOURTEEN HOUR SERVER CHECK (remember guys I told you. Take the time they give you and multiply it by two. They said 12-7 before. Now it's 12-2. 14 hours. I win again). That means they are planning to work for a total of 14 hours straight on this patch to make it right. It HAS to be huge!

I have put some sort of a wager down that I am 100% certain third jobs will be coming out with this patch. And, of course, I will screenshot every step of the way.

ok... looks like I need lvl 3 dispell for holy symbol...

What should my one point I get from job advance be put in? Possible ideas:

1. first point in dispell, then 2 in dispell and one in HS, 3 in HS, etc.
2. first point in shining ray or elemental resist, then 3 in dispell, then 3 in HS, 3 in HS, etc.

First one would get me to HS faster, but dispell is basically useless to me. I will be grinding alone at coolies for a while, and I have no use for dispell alone. Shining ray or elemental resist would be helpful (well technically, shining ray would be fun but not helpful). And besides, HS will only be one level behind (which it would be anyway with getting one point in lots of other skills... and I'll need to add another 2 in dispell before I'd be able to get door anyway). Basically, I figure one more level behind in HS won't matter so much.

Surely you guys will tell me I need to get dispell, but I think I'm going to go with first point in resist. I guess I'm just posting this to see what you guys think.

EDIT: And after looking at this:

http://www.hidden-street.net/characters/priest.php

I think that whoever said about only needing one rock when you get the skill was probably right. It lists the rock in the prerequisites, rather than where it lists the MP cost. That is definitely cool.

I'm dissappointed by lack of lubridium/other new place.

Coolies are way too crowded with assholes. At least they'll all quit again soon, right?

[banditcom]

They are adding pets, 3rd jobs, and level 70/75 items.

Some people are never happy.... -_-

[evilbutterfly]

But you see, none of those things affect Afro at all. Now he's just gonna have a bunch 3rd job people on his ass, or so he thinks.

Afro, people who have made it to the 3rd job have better things to do than fight Coolies. 3rd job gets way more party oriented, which means you'll have groups tackling Y&P or Bains together or going after Jr. Balrog. Clerics may stick around just until HS is maxed, but then they pretty much HAVE to party to keep up with everybody else. Don't worry about the crowds, Afro, they won't be a problem.

However, Ludi or Theme Park oughta come soon, cuz people get bored with the same ole places all the time. Besides, I wanna see what they'll do with the whole Theme Park thing....and I'm sick of seeing Cody's stupid face in Hene. D:

[banditcom]

Oh yea.. forgot.. Everything has to be geared towards him otherwise he's not happy or won't do it.

..what a great person to be a cleric...


Heh last night, a friend (spearman) was in coolies on map 3 with his friend Constipation (89 bandit). They weren't partied, but him and I still were from an hour before. He just took the left side of the map while Constipation took the right.. Anyways he wanted to chill there instead of partying together on one map, so I said that's fine. I changed to an empty channel. Everytime my haste ran out, I changed to his channel, fell down, hasted him, then changed back. XD It was pretty fun. Didn't really slow me down at all either.. Maybe a percent in an hour.

[Ignite]

Rofl, owned.

[banditcom]

lol Pat I hear you're horrible at partying so I wouldn't say anything about "owned" concerning the topic...

[evilbutterfly]

It's 2:30 and they're still patching....wtf. D=

And Chris isn't a bad partier, he just doesn't want to miss out on more HS. The cost might be an issue, but there has been the good point brought up that people would pay him to be able to use the door....

EDIT:

Patching Hours: 05:00 am - 12:00 pm GMT (12:00 mn - 07:00 pm EST)

....

WTF

[OniSplitter]

O_o I saw that too.... praying that its a mistake... doubt it though >.<

*cries and studies 3rd job questions*

[gowereinside]

The patch better be good because I planned out what to do to get my Thunder bolt worth using. My Maple day has just been crushed. =(

[Afrobean]

Oh yea.. forgot.. Everything has to be geared towards him otherwise he's not happy or won't do it.

evilbutterfly87 (3:26:55 PM): btw, Jason mocked your anger at the lack of Ludi
Afrobean16 (3:27:26 PM): I didn't even say I wasn't glad they're doing all they did
Afrobean16 (3:27:38 PM): I just said I was dissappointed that they didn't do the only thing I really wanted

I'm not partying yet anyway, so why is it bad for me to want things that help me? It's not like I'm going to be partying with people that are 3rd job. I'm going to be solo grinding on coolies.
