their Assassin the most powerful Assassin.

====================
IV. Leveling / Game Guide
====================
--------------------
All:
--------------------
Well in this section I will explain where to level ,what weapons you should
use, etc.
No matter which road you pick you will have to begin the same way.
You will begin in the training grounds. If you are new to the game this will
teach you many things about the game so you don't act like an idiot while
playing. They will put you through many tests and if you answer the questions
correctly you will be rewarded. At the end of the training grounds you will
take a test which will determine which class suits you the best. If you end up
with them recommending you to be a thief you will be teleported to morroc and
given extra zenny, but if you get stuck with another class tell them you want
to go with your original class which is a thief and tell them to teleport you
to Morroc.
You are now in Midgard the ragnarok world.
This is the equipment/items/zenny they give you at the beginning:
1 Knife
1 Cotton Shirt
The items depend on how many questions you answered correctly.
Your zenny depends on if they recommended you to be a thief.
From now you will begin training.
Head to the northern exit which leads to the dessert. In the dessert you will
find a couple types of monsters. You will see porings, pickys, Pecco Eggs, and
Condors.
At the beginning you will have to level on just porings, pecco eggs, and the
occasional picky. When your HP gets low just use a healing item or wait until
your HP recharges. Once you are base level 6 you should be able to kill
Condors. Keep on killing these monsters until you are job level 10.
When you are job level 10 head back into Morroc and then go to the north
western exit which will lead you to a dessert with a fountain and pyramids.
Prepare your healing items because it will be the toughest run of your life so
far. Don't even bother attacking any monsters in here, you will just get
killed. Walk into the pyramid and try to stick to people that are stronger than
you. Walk through the maze until you find stairs that lead down. If you are in
the right place you should be in a hallway. Go straight down the hallway and a
NPC should be behind a counter. Talk to the NPC and he will send you out on a
quest. You now exit the pyramid and head to the fountain outside. There should
be another NPC waiting for you that will let you into a dungeon.
Now you must collect a semi-rare mushroom. This shouldn't take more than a
while but beware, there are aggressive monsters there. Once you finish you
should become a thief. Now walk into Morroc and take the northern exit.
You must now make a journey to Prontera. If you have lots of zenny you can just
buy a warp but if you don't you'll have to walk through the dessert. I
recommend you walk through the dessert, it’s a good way to get EXP.
Once you are in Prontera you can sell what you have collected in monster drops
and you should have enough zenny to buy a Cutter or Main Gauche.
After you are done selling/buying head to the building in the northwest part of
town. There you must sign up in a mission to kill the monsters in prontera's
sewers. After you sign up you will be teleported to the dungeon.
Once inside try killing thief bugs that are alone and eventually Tarou's and
bats.
--------------------
By Base lv.20
--------------------
You should go to culverts level 2 and kill anything that you can kill.
If you are lucky you will be able to find Blades which you can either
use or just sell for money. Try to stay away from big groups of people
because they will only bring lag. Always leave atleast 1 jellopy on the
ground to attract monsters.
If you gather too many thief bugs and you attack there is a chance that
they will all gang on you at the same time so carry a couple of pots or
carrots. The culverts 2 is a very good place to gather money because of
the constant monsters.
--------------------
Base Lv.30
--------------------
You should now go deeper into the culverts and fight the monsters in
culverts 3. While down here you'll notice one big difference from culverts 2,
the thief bugs are now larger. These larger thief bugs are much stronger and
give out more exp. While down here you will also fight Hydras which have
ranged attacks, if you lose HP for no reason a hydra is attacking you.
Like in culverts 2 try to stay away from groups of people. Do not go into the
next screen if you value your life. Try to drop as much Jellopys as you can
to attract alot of monsters.You will need a couple of healing items down
here,
--------------------
Base Lv.35
--------------------
You should now leave the culverts and go to Prontera to sell your earnings. At
this point you should have enough to buy a Stilleto from a discount merchant.
If you have any extra money buy a wooden mail. After that do not buy any more
armor...you won't be needing it.
After you buy a stilleto you will now make a journey to the closest upgrade
NPC. There are upgrade NPCs in Prontera, Payon and Morroc.
Once in one of those places head for the upgrade shop. Here you will have to
pay to upgrade your stilleto. Upgrade your Stilleto until you get it to +7.
Once you are done upgrading leave. Keep in mind there's a chance of failure.
Now you will have to walk to Geffen. If you still have any money left warp
but it isn't a very long walk.
Once in Geffen go to the eastern exit and then on the next map go to northern
exit. You will now be in a map with Squirrels and Snails
(Cocos and Ambermites). Fight here until you are Base Lv.40. The cocos give
decent drops so try to fight more of them.
--------------------
Base Lv.40
--------------------
You can go one map east of the map with Cocos and Ambermites to fight Horns.
By fighting here you will get more money and rares because Horns have a good
chance of dropping valuable items. With the money each type of Assassin should
gather the money necessary for some of their equipment.
The horns WILL hit you always carry pots here. There are Cocos, Horns, and
Lunatics in this map. From what I've seen the Lunatics here have a high
percentage of dropping Pierrot Noses( In 1 hour I found 3 of them). The exp
may seem slow but its better than wandering around and wasting time trying
to find a decent leveling place for your level(which you won't).
--------------------
Base Lv.45
--------------------
Now this is where the types of Assassins split.
--------------------
Critical Assassin
--------------------
A critical assassin should now go to Izlude to fight in bibiland dungeon level
2 until they reach the job level required to be an assassin. If you have
followed my guideline for stats you should be able to handle some Orc Zombies
with the help of pots. Bibiland 2 will end up costing less than Orc Dungeon
and you will really need the money in the future.
--------------------
Perfect Dodge Assassin
--------------------
You will have to stay fighting horns. You need the money that you will get
from the rares. The exp from horns is almost equivalent to the exp you would
get in bibiland 2. Try to look for people selling Fortune Swords when ever
you go to town. If you see a slotted Muffler or slotted shoes buy them.
--------------------
Hybrid Perfect Dodge/Critical Assassin
--------------------
A Hybrid assassin should now go to izlude to fight in bibiland dungeon level
2 until they reach the job level required to be an assassin. Money is a big
factor in this build, even Jellopys are important. Pick up any item you see
even if it is just a jellopy. Orc Dungeon is not a good place for this build
because you will waste too much money on pots.
While leveling in Bibiland try to stay in small places, like behind the lv.3
entrance. I have found more enemies fighting around the lv.3 entrance than
anywhere else in Bibiland. You'll get very lonely at times if you want to get
out of the dungeon DO NOT WALK OUT. When you see that there is no people
around you this is a signal for a giant group of Hydras somewhere up above.
--------------------
Max Attack Speed Build

A ASPD assassin should now go to izlude to fight in bibiland dungeon level
2 until they reach the job level required to be an assassin. Orc Dungeon would
be a decent place for this build. You will make a measly profit but you will
get ALOT of experience. If you want to fight in Orc Dungeon I suggest you
fight with a group of people.
While leveling in Bibiland try to stay in small places, like behind the lv.3
entrance. I have found more enemies fighting around the lv.3 entrance than
anywhere else in Bibiland. You'll get very lonely at times if you want to get
out of the dungeon DO NOT WALK OUT. When you see that there is no people
around you this is a signal for a giant group of Hydras somewhere up above.
--------------------
Base Lv.65
--------------------
At this point All types should now be Assassins.
--------------------
Critical Assassin
--------------------
A new critical assassin should head to the Coal Mine to fine a 3-Slotted Jur.
After you buy of find the jur head down to an upgrade NPC and upgrade it till
it is a +7 Jur.
After you are done upgrading head north to Payon. Once in Payon check if anyone
is selling any of the equipment you need and if so buy it. If no one has the
equipment you need head to payon dungeon.
You should stick to payon dungeon level 2 and 3. These 2 levels have monsters
that will help you get important pieces of equipment. The skeleton soldier
should drop the 3 cards you need for your Jur and the Munaks should drop the
ninja suits which will help you get zenny. If the exp seems to get slow just
go deeper into the dungeon, but beware of the Moonlight.
--------------------
Perfect Dodge Assassin
--------------------
Just like a new critical assassin a perfect dodge assassin should head to
the coal mine to find a 3-Slotted Jur. After the Jur is bough head down
to Alberta and upgrade it till it is a +7 Jur.
After you are done upgrading head north to Payon. Once in Payon check if anyone
is selling any of the equipment you need and if so buy it. If no one has the
equipment you need head to payon dungeon.
You should stick to payon dungeon level 2 and 3. These 2 levels have monsters
that will help you get important pieces of equipment. The skeleton soldiers
should drop some rare items and the Munaks should drop the ninja suits which will
help you get zenny.

Hybrid Perfect Dodge/Critical Assassin

Critical Assassin

After you got the cards that add to criticals go hunt in Pyramids Basement 1
and 2. While you are here try and get your slotted thieves clothes.
Skeleton Archers are very annoying, so always kill them first. If you see a
mob anywhere near you grimtooth it to death.
--------------------
Perfect Dodge Assassin
--------------------
After you get the cards needed you will now have to get a whisper card. This
will be the toughest card to get. Whispers are immune to ALL physical attacks,
rendering your assassin useless.
You have to do one of the following to get the Whisper card
a) Buy it at an insane price.
b) Get it from a friend.
c) Get it from another character
d) Use an elemental Dagger
e) Try using envenom to kill the Whispers.
You will also need to get your slotted thieves clothes by killing mummies in
the Pyramids.
The most important task is now at hand. You will now have to fight Phreeoni
infinite amount of times until you get your fortune swords.

You are the quickest thing in Midgard. You should get 4 hits in every second.
80% of your hits will be criticals and you will hit most of the time because
of the high hit rate. You will fare decently against mobs and you will be
able to dodge most things. If you want to be really fast use sonic blow as
often as you can.

Alternating Critical/Perfect Dodge Assassin

Well here’s the best part about being an assassin. With the right amount of
money you can change a critical assassin into a decent perfect dodge assassin
and vice-versa. When you want to kill mobs, use the perfect dodge build.

section will become longer and the cost will change.
(BASED ON CURRENT RO ECONOMY [11/30/03])
Critical Assassin: 20-30 Million zenny
Perfect Dodge Assassin: 15-30 Million Zenny
Hybrid: 25-45 Million zenny
Max Attack Speed: 20-30 Millionn zenny
