1. Vagrant To Mercenary Stats
Here is the Vagrant To Mercenary Stats guide, there are,
again, 3 versions available, go with what YOU think is good for you! icon_smile.gif

My reccomendation: Version B.

Version A.
All STR, meaning right from level 1 to level 15 all strengh.
This means you will have the highest attack possible until level 15.

Pros:
- Highest attack, quicker killing.

Cons:
- Very Slow Attack
- Very low life (meaning you need some pots)

Version B.
1 to STR, 1 to DEX. Just 1-1 each level.

Pros:
- Good attack power
- Fast attack

Cons:
- Low Life (Meaning you need some pots)

Version C.
All STA, this is least reccomended.

Pros:
- High HP (Alot less pots needed,
for those who dont make money fast)

Cons:
- Low attack speed
- Low attack power

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2. Vagrant to Mercenary & Mercanary to Knight Quest
Both guides are found excellently made on flyffworld.com,
I wont make a guide, that is less than what these guys offer icon_wink.gif

Mercenary to Knight:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3. Explenation of the stats:
STR - Adds damage to your hit.
STA - Adds HP and defence.
DEX - Faster, More accurate hits,
and higher dodge rate.
(There are also alot of arguing about how much
"faster" does dex really
add.)
INT - Isnt important for merc -
Don't even bother putting 1 point.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4. Knights -

Cons:
*Miss alot due to very low dex.
*Low dodge rate.
*Low attack power resulting in slower killing
resulting in slower leveling.

Pros:
* Can take alot of damage.
* Has high HP (STA).
* Few health pots needed for leveling - whereas blades need alot - and
still die alot.
* It's more honorable to play a lesser-played job.
* Can easily tank higher level giants (trust me, you'll be killing alot of
giants)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
5. What Stats To Add?:
You have 3 choices, go with what fits you well;

Knights focus on STA - But I did find that
the leveling is quite slow, so I
turned to STR a bit, by which STA
will be 15 points above STR - Which is
good in my opinion, because I dont like
to skill-spam *Why skill-spam? Well at higher levels
you find that your attack is too low
to kill anything quickly - so you use
skills, they never miss and they have
higher attack then your regular one.*

Version A. (STA stays 20-25 Above STR)-
This means Getting STR to 40, and
STA to 60, - Dex limit is 30! And once you
get those just keep adding one to STR and one to STA each
level, so STA stays 20 above STR.

Version B. (STA is 15 above STR)-
This version of the guide involves
maxing out the STR to 50,making dex
28 dex (30 being the max for dex) and
the rest to STA, this way you still
have a good attack power when you are
knight, and you still have alot of
HP to take damage. This is also the path that I chose.

Version C.
Same as version B except NO dex at all,
since Knights skill spam at higher
levels, meaning no misses with skills,
dex is useless and the points can go
to STA, but for those of you that do
not like to skill spam 24/7, and
you want higher hit rate until level 60
I recommend Version B, for the dex.
Remember though you WILL be
using alot of skills - meaning DEX has
little influence on your char.
It is VERY hard to level up from level 15 to
60 with 15 dex! Since all the misses, so this
is why its my least-reccomended.
Also
remember to level the skills up icon_smile.gif

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6. Weapons for knights:

Since knights miss alot, they skill spam,
meaning skills never miss, and
have higher attack power than the
regular hit, this means Knights need to
use axes, why? axes + skills = high
attack power, never miss, and the
speed of axes dont matter, since
skills are the same speed, with an axe or
with a sword. This also works on
prices, since there are less knights
around, axes are sold cheaper,
like (level 30, level 45 rare axe).

NOTE:
The axes really pay up when fighting giants!
(You will be fighting alot of giants, for money
and items, usually giants 2-5 levels above you,
if you are going to be a knight, skill spamming
the giant is most important, so you can kill it
faster and also take as less damage as you
can possibly take. There have also been
some rumors about a "Time-Factor"
effecting the giant drops, if you kill it
faster = better drop. No one knows
the truth about these rumors, except
for the developpers :p

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
7. Quickest way to a Knight.
THIS WILL ONLY BE GOOD IF YOU THINK
YOU CAN SAVE UP 10-11Million
Penya until level 59/60.

The plan is this, it is known that
Blades level faster then Knights (that is,
until level 60). So what most people
do is use a restat at level 59/60 and
then become a Knight!

[A restat reset all your stats,
meaning everything is at 15 again.
This way getting to be a knight is
less troublesome. It can be purchased
in-game from other players (Usualy goes for 11
Million Penya), or through
the cash shop (for real money)]

What you'll need to do is make a pure
STR/DEX 1:1 merc character until
level 60, then get a restat and switch to
Sta - 20 more then str.
(For example, 60 sta, 40 str)
NO DEX! (Why no dex, read status build Version C.)

So that means I can reset my stat back to all 15 again by using wat kind of item. Pls tell me wats that item. And wat is restat different from stat reset. Is there?

Dark Blade

A restat and a stat reset is exactly the same. The Restat Scroll you can buy from the cashshop for real money. Just go to: http://flyff.gpotato.com/ and click 'Store'. There you can find it I think.

PowerGamer

Or you can buy it in game from people that have bought it for real money, like i said, it ranges from 11 to 13 million penya.

You dont have to afford it, there are 4 ways to get to a knight,
the fastest is costly.

All of the stat guides are mainly Sta based, so I don't see how there is not sta on merc, but if you mean the Fastest Way to a Knight stat guide then yes, its basically how to get to a Blade only at the end you restat and you put in Knight builds :)

sorry i misunderstood you about tha sta thing... what would be the best iyo(in your opinon) for a pvp knight? (setup wise stats and stuff)

07-11-2006, 05:35 PM
Full stam is a good PvP build, good defence, good hp, and good skill damage. I'm not sure of any other PvP builds.

PowerGamer

sorry i misunderstood you about tha sta thing... what would be the best iyo(in your opinon) for a pvp knight? (setup wise stats and stuff)

PVP knight would be Version B. up there,
see it has good STR and higher STA and good amount of Dex,
sta is vital on pvp, that high STR (For a knight) gives it the extra edge and the dex makes sure you miss as little as possible during PVP combat.

The full stam pvp knight is not better then a "version b pvper" since skills take some time to cast, time that you don't have during PVP, its better to finish the other quicker and harder.

08-04-2006, 05:26 PM
on you vargant guide i don't think version b will work
because you only get a noticably faster attack at 40 dex
witch at that time you will be attacking 2-3 times faster that with20-30 dex
please keep this in mind if i'm not mistaken speed breaks at at 40-60-80-95-and 110 each one doubleing or even tripleing the one before it just a small note on dex/speed

PowerGamer
08-04-2006, 07:29 PM
^^ I'm aware of that, thats why I said that 30 is the MAX, and 40 would be going over the top, too many points that you don't need at higher levels.

Edit:
I already have this note there,
Remember though you WILL be
using alot of skills - meaning DEX has
little influence on your char.
It is VERY hard to level up from level 15 to
60 with 15 dex! Since all the misses, so this
is why its my least-reccomended.
Also
remember to level the skills

Thats because your Str is really high in comparison to your Sta, you'll need to add at least 4-5 more points on Sta for the next few levels to even the situation out. Like one of my versions, 50 is the max for str, and you're getting near the maximum border (if you want to be a knight), instead of 30 dex, you could've had 26-28 dex and the rest to Sta, since you are a knight, 15 points from Sta to Str is the minimum.
Hope that helps ;)

Dude, i haven't made much progress in the couple of months but i'm now
a 44 merc (knight/build)

and my stats are quite similar

dex-33 (i found a dex ring that gave me +3 dex so my dex is 30 without it)
Str- 43
Stamina 59 (bought +1 stamina ring without it my sta is 58)
int-15

ok well heres the problem, my speed of lvling is quite slow but i'm getting
used to it so i can use mega huge swords. Yet i'm still having problems
because i miss too much!!! Therefore me missing too much directs me losing
a lil hp, but every miss i hit i lose a lil more hp, thus being that i slowly am
losing more hp then a blade, and i have to use a round of 0-2 pizza's each
monster. (estimating i use about 30 pizza for ever 20% of exp)

Sometimes i feel jelous that Blades never miss, and they kill so quickly,
i still dont get whats a knights advantage, but for wat i'm being told
Knights own after lvl 60, but i still have a while till i'm a knight, are my stats still wrong?

should i jus keep str to 45? and raise sta all the way? or should i take off the dex rings and buy more stam rings?

Best option would be to go full stam now until the end of time. You'll level fast skill spamming splmash and keenwheel in the action slot and if you have a leveling partner in a full adv party. I think you might've added too much dex, but you should be fine. Just remember, knight don't melee 1v1, they aoe and attack many enemies at once. No need to add dex, or too much str, stam works better for knights.

After level 60, knights are the best, yet they STILL miss..
Knight = Skills, what knights do is basicaly skill-spam, skills never miss
and skills are stronger then the attack with the regular weapon, and at level 65 knights get AOE... and thats the fastest way to level after level 60... blades are going to find themselves getting killed more and more! While knights take higher levels with AOE = ALOT OF EXP.

So the SMARTEST thing to do, would be to have blade stats until level 60, and then restat... but for people who don't have money, its one or the other.

The answer to your question is - Use skills!
You can use the blood one to restore a bit of health, after using it a lot, it'll go up more levels and you get more health, but thats just an example.

but here's a problem, i'm that rich to buy a restat scroll

for what i'm being told there about 10mill, i'm carrying about 1.3 mill,

anyway, i do understand for wat u mean, i'm getting used too the misses,

but theres one problem, i already have keenwheel maxed, so i'm going

for special hit, i didnt go for guillotine. I'm thinking Special Hit is better,

and i think i'll stick with the knight stats, and go all the way! and thanks for

ur help! (out of a toll,) 67% picked blade, 33% pick Knight o_O strange...

Yeah, what im trying to get across is, once you pick knight, your signing a "skill contract" if you will ;)

since knights miss ALOT... so they use skills that never miss and are strong!

I mentioned the pros and cons with the knight.

And to the toll, not strange at all! it's much harder to play a knight than almost any other char, level-wise... its a lot more time to put into your char, but at the end there isnt anything that can defeat it, the ultimate defence and HP and cool armor :)

Dude, update, Restat value on Servers is around 40-60 Millions, so my best advise instead of wasting that MUCH money on a painfull Restat, go straight to the build that you want, STR/STA... by the way i have 5 chars, 2 of them are Mercs... 1 a blade build 40str 40sta 50dex and raising Dex up, the second is a Knight build... 16st 80sta, right now at level 34 I am killing monsters 10 levels above mine... killing Captain Tombbears... NICE! I get 1.5% and if I kill level 45 a bit more... so I am leveling fast but at the same time low, Skill Spamming is awefull so I waste around 50K on Pots for FPdaily... thats the only inconvinient but I know when I get to level 45 that wont be a pain in the buck... jejejeje :(

One of the cons of Axes is that their damage is more unstable compared to Swords due to their broader ATK range. Swords don't have as much of a damage gap, and I find I hit more often with a Sword. Just my opinion, though.

Hasn't inflation caused Restats to get up past 100 mill now?
