\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/

Hello, and welcome to my Ragnarok Online Card Combo/Equipment
Combo Guide! With the semi-recent implementation of many new
cards and equipment, along with all of the combos, things concerning
them can get pretty dern confusing.

I was very interested in the combos, but I couldn't find anywhere
that had a simple way to find all of the benifits of them. So I
decided to compile all the information on them that I could find,
and the result is the guide that you see here. This guide lists all
the effects of the cards/equipments in the combo, plus the added
effects of having them all equipped at the same time. I hope you
all find this guide very informative and useful. With that said,
let's get started!

[ Card Combo Guide                                  ]
\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/

Okay, now for the guide. Here is how it is going to work: I'll start
with the major, class specific combos (Class specific combos feature
some effects that will only work if worn by the said class), then I'll
cover the minor combos (the ones that only use 2-3cards). I'll begin
each combo with the combo's name, then the cards included (and also
which type of equipment they compound on) and then I'll follow that
up by listing all the wonderful effects that the combo bestows upon
it's user. Finally, I'll provide a description of the major combos and
what builds/classes I reccomend for them. Shouldn't be too complicated.
Here goes.

/~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\
[ Major Combos                                      ]
\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/

       -=Archer Combo=-

Cards:
Merman (Foot Gear)           
Cruiser (Weaponry)      
Anolian (Armor)     
Alligator (Accessory)     
Dragon Tail (Garment)

Effect:
HP Recovery +10%
SP Recovery +10%
Long Range Physical Attack Damage +20%
AGI +6
DEX +3
Flee +10
Seeking Attack +20%
+5% More EXP from Brute monsters
Chance of casting 'Coma' when attacking
10% More Damage with Critical Attacks
CRIT +7 on Brute Monsters
Chance of casting Improve Concentration on the user when receiving
Physical damage.
If the user has mastered the skill at level 10, it will cast level
10 Improve Concentration.
Receive 5% less damage from Long Range Physical attacks
+5% More damage with Double Strafe and Arrow Shower Skills

Description: This combo is a must have for dex/agi Snipers. The
additional 20% damage, along with the dex, agility, and flee
boosts really help. If you have a decent about of luk, you'll also
be dealing better damage with crits. The HP/SP recovory bonuses
are wonderful as well. The only downside to this combo, in my
opinion is the auto-casting Improve Concentration more than half
of the time that you ever recieve damage, and that can eat up your
sp. A great combo overall, though.  

   -=Thief Combo-=

Cards:
Shinobi (Accessory)
The Paper (Weaponry)
Wanderer (Garment)
Wild Rose (Foot Gear)
Zhu Po Long/Dancing Dragon (Accessory)

Effect:
+20% more damage with Critical attacks
Attack Speed +5%
Walking Speed +5%
Gain 1 SP with each attack
AGI +8
STR +5
Critical +3
Perfect Dodge +5
Flee +20
Skills do not use Gemstones
Chance of casting level 5 Cloaking when user receives Physical damage

Description: If you are a critical assassin, then this combo is for
you. In addition to the extra 20% damage, the added attack speed, str,
crit, and agi will really help you do dish out the damage quickly. You
never know when that auto cloaking could save you. You'll be able to
venom dust all you want without having to worry about red gemstones.
The 20 flee is just as good as a whipser, and the extra 5 perfect
dodge adds an extra 5% chance for the opponent to miss you. This is a
great combo.

   -=Mage Combo=-

Cards:
Bloody Butterfly (Accessory)
Miyabi Doll (Foot Gear)
Parasite (Shield)
Evil Nymph (Head Gear)
Loli Ruri (Armor)
Harpy (Garment)

Effect:
Spell Casting cannot be interrupted
Chance of casting level 3 Heal on user when recieving Physical damage
Max HP +500
Max SP +50
Max SP +10%
DEF +6
MDEF +5
INT +1
+10% more damage with Fire, Cold, and Lightning Bolt skills
Casting time +15%
MATK +3%
+20% Tolerance against Neutral attacks
+5% more damage with Napalm Beat
+5% more damage with Frost Diver
+5% more damage with Fire Wall

Description: Not a bad combo for any build of Wizard/Sage. You won't
need a phen card, bloody butterfly takes care of that, and you'll
also be able to cast faster than the people who use phen's. The extra
HP/SP never hurt, and 6 DEF is great from cards, not to mention the
20% resistance against nuetral attacks (That's just like a raydric
right there!) . Various damage bonuses help out along with the extra
3% matk. Not a bad combo, especially since it works with so many
builds.

     -=Swordsman Combo=-

Cards:
Assaulter (Weaponry)
Freezer (Foot Gear)
Heater (Accessory)
Permeter (Head Gear)
Solider (Armor)

Effect:
+10% damage with Critical attacks
Critical +7 on Demi-Human monsters
Critical +3
Perfect Dodge +3
DEF +2
MDEF +2
Chance of casting level 1 Weapon Perfection on user when attacking
HP Recovery +50%
Chance of gaining ‘Red Potion’ each time an enemy is killed
Max HP +20%
Max HP +300
STR +10
Red, Yellow, and White Potions restore 50% more HP
Do 10% more damage with Bash if Shoes are upgraded to +10
+15% Tolerance against Shadow Property attacks
+15% Tolerance against Undead Property attacks

Description: In my opinion, this combo isn't all that great. The HP
bonuses and the 10 str are not bad at all, but those are pretty much
the only great things about this combo. Get it if you want, but I
wouldn't reccomend it.

     -=Merchant Combo=-

Cards:
Baby Leopard (Armor)
Hylozoist (Accessory)
Myst Case (Head Gear)
Raggler (Foot Gear)
Zipper Bear (Weaponry)

Effect:
Chance of transmogrifying a monster while fighting
Restores 1 SP with each attack
+20% Damage with Mammonite
LUK +13
STR +1
VIT +1
ATK +30
Chance of getting ‘Old Purple Box’ when a monster is killed
Chance of getting ‘Gift Box’ when a monster is killed
20% Chance of reflecting a magic spell back at the caster
Weapon cannot be damaged
Armor cannot be damaged

Description: Another combo that is not too great, although it is
not as crappy as the Swordsman one. 13 luk can help out with
forging, and you never know when an OPB or gift box will pop up.
Regaining one sp with each attack helps a lot if you are a battle
smith. If you had a Two Handed Axe[2] and two Zipper bear cards,
the sp effects would cancel eachother out, but you would have a
whopping extra 60 attack added, and that combined with the Master
Smith's 'Power Thrust Max' Skill can really deal some damage. 

     -=Acolyte Combo=-

Cards:
Cookie (Accessory)
Enchanted Peach Tree (Shield)
Fur Seal (Weaponry)
Geographer (Armor)
Rideword (Head Gear)

Effect:
Chance of casting level 2 Blessing on the user when taking Physical
Damage
Chance of casting level 1 Heal on the user when attacking
If the user has Heal at level 10, then level 10 Heal will be cast
instead
Cast Time -10%
VIT +10
INT +1
LUK +2
MDEF +1
Accuracy +10
Flee +3
-30% damage from Devil and Undead monsters
+5% EXP from Devil and Undead monsters
Critical +9 on Devil and Undead monsters
+10% Damage with Holy Light

Description: This combo is great for Priests/High Priests. The
faster casting time will help you do all those buffs faster, and
the added vit will help you to survive a lot longer. It also has
some great bonuses for Devil/Undead monsters, and that is what
you will most likely be battling as you level up. Sometimes you
wont even have to manually heal yourself when you take damage!

    -=Clock Tower Combo=-

Cards:
Clock (Armor)
Clock Tower Manager (Head gear)
Punk (Garment)
Alarm (Foot Gear)

Effect:
INT +1
Cast Time -10%
DEF +3
MDEF +3
Max HP +300
VIT +1
Chance of casting level 1 Sight around the user when receiving
physical damage
100% Chance to cast level 1 Quagmire around the user when receiving
physical damage
If the user has Quagmire Level 5, then level 5 will be cast instead
100% Chance to cast level 3 Guard on the user when receiving physical
damage
If the user has level 10 Guard, then level 10 will be cast instead

Description: This isn't a class-specific combo, but it has 4 cards so
I'd say it deserves to fall into the major category. This combo can
really be used for any class, but I would reccomend it for a acolyte,
crusader, or mage type character.
