Hey! Gyl here! You guys might know me but anyway that doesn't matter. I've
been an average FAQ writer(I think) and am actually be writing one for a
long time already so it won't be a matter if you're hoping to find the guide
as useful as it would be. I've been trying to bring out the best in every
guide I create and I'm hoping that you not only find the guide comprehensive
but at the same time entertaining. Entertaining to a point that you won't
feel tired of reading them and just keep reading at the same time. The guide
is created for you to freely move around yourself. I won't be ordering you
to do this or do that but merely suggestions as to at least beat a
level/boss/stage/something. BTW, if you've seen my other guides this one
would be fairly different as I'll be using a new way like adding quotes
appropriate to the theme of the part you're reading.

I must warn you before playing, Ragnarok Online is a very addiciting game
though at first you might notice that it's a sensless-hack-and-slash type of
game with no real story line or quests to be taken to be as its backbone.
I must also warn you that if you're not that good with scheduling or managing
your time then you should leave as the game will suck a portion of your
social life if you let it consume you. The game is fairly fun perhaps the
interaction with other people is its charm. Anyway, this guide is designed
not to tackle the whole game itself but would basically be dealing with the
SpearKnights/Lancer builds. Why you ask? Basically, I find people more fond
of the 2 handed Knight Build/Agi Build and they think of Vit type swordies
which are easily inclined to using spears are a bunch of weaklings. What
I'm trying to do here is to create a guide that'll give players an idea to
how they should be raising their Swordies to be the toughest knight(Spear
Knight to be exact) there is. Anyway, this stuff should be on another
topic...

Let's roll...

stuffs here but as promised to some mailers I've changed them A.S.A.P.

                         *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
Why'd I suddenly summon a E-Mail/Contacts Policy section? Simply to
categorize every mail that I've been recieving from those that are possibly
either a Virus or something bad. I would suggest you follow the following
things below so as to quickly get a reply off the day or two after you
mailed me. Yes! I'm that quick on replying mails as I don't want my Inbox
to be so filled and to make my browser go faster when checking things out.
Anyway here are the list of Do's and Don'ts doing something that is on
either the Do's/Don'ts list will seriously affect the odds of you getting
a reply so I suggest you follow them as simple rules are applied.

chances are that your question might be answered in the newest version of
the guide.
5. If I happen to not reply after three or so days than e-mail me again
nicely and I'll reply ASAP.
6. You must label your mail with the game title whether a submission or a
question (E.I. FFX-2 <insert any topic for your contribution> or just FFX-2
for questions or inquiries).
7. Don't be persistent, don't e-mail me the very same question that I've
already answered.

this?"

*- Introduction to Lancers -*
*-                         -*
Lancer/SpearKnight - A term most commonly used to people who wished to be
different to other knights and took up their spears and wield it better then
swords. They are either on-foot or aboard a PecoPeco. A Lancer/SK is commonly
placed in the frontline and is mostly used to utilize their overpowered
offensive attacks. Some would wish to be as fast as thieves but most of the
time those that followed the way of a real Lancer are tough and can withstand
any kinds of beating. Though they're not that famous compared to Agility
Knights most underestimate their power and would simply look down before them
but the truth is that only those who persevere would only see the true light
and power of a real Lancer. Equipped with their powerful spear they can wield
it and dish off damage better than any knights who might come up in their way
and at the same time with their keen sight most of them rarely miss their
target. Swordsman are still as famous as ever and with the anticipation of
the Crusader class many might still change their mind and perhaps turn sides
and be one of us SpearKnights.

Lancers are basically designed to take minimum hits and dish back twice as
much damage. They could easily bash their way through mobs and even perform
better against bigger enemies. With the HP recovery skill they won't have
to worry about healing and with the High Vitality they have they're designed
to be earning as much HP recovery every turn. Lancers are fun and a very
effective way of being a knight since it complements the use of PecoPeco.

                 Lancers, Midgard's Pillar.

Lancers are one of the most underrated job in RO. As most of the time you'll
see a swordsman/knight there are only a little as 20% chance of them being
a SpearKnight/Lancer. They are very tough fighters that has an amazing
healing recovery rate and has a fearsome way of dishing damage. With my
experience using them I can safely say that they are in fact one of the most
amazing jobs in terms of mob-controlling(if they can handle that well then
think of just one vs one battle) and in PvP. Lancer's starts very well and
can early on handle monsters like rockers or thief bugs in their mid-novice
career but later on look frail and shabby without the proper equipments which
at most is not cheap as a few would only be seen vending one. But with the
right equipments you can easily compare your level 25 aspiring Lancer to
a level 30 1 handed/2 handed swordsman (I notice this since leveling on the
Elder Willow map).

Swordsman an option to turn into a Knight or a Crusader.

Knights are simply a higher version of Swordsman as the real skills for a
Lancer/SpearKnight is only available one you've turned into one. Crusaders
on the other hand will be perhaps a slight variation of knights, but since
I haven't been a crusader or am planning in the future I couldn't talk
about them yet. Though there are 2 options after reaching job level 40.
Taking one over another

So you finally wanted to become an Lancer/SpearKnight?

To become a Lancer you first have to be a Swordsman, to do so reach the
necessary requirements and visit the Swordsmans Guild in Izlude. You simply
have to walk on sa series of obstacles and easily become a swordsman.

Knights only requires you to be job level 40 or higher and visit where you
signed up for the Culvert Volunteer just on the top left part of the Prontera
City.

*- Why follow be a Lancer? -*
*-                         -*

    "To be human is to know the fear of death, yet keep on fighting."
                       -- Gau Ban, Shadow Skill.

Simply to put it: "It's fun", "You'll be original", and "You'll prove people
that lancers aren't just a nice title to hear".

Lancers aren't boring. Unlike the most Generic/commonly used 2 handed AGI
swordsman you'll simply be benefiting from your Two-Hand Quicken a lot sure,
a +10 ASP but I believe using that SP cost for like a Brandish Spear would be
more practical and you'll be waiting a bit more levels before you can go on
tougher enemies yourself compared to that of Lancer. And the fact that there
aren't much of a Spear Knight you should be unique compared to other knights
you're walking along with. Seriously, being a Spear Knight or a Lancer will
make you utilize a lot of your offensive power and toughness to withstand
the pain as well as using the PecoPeco's additional attack bonus on spears
(when you're a knight).  Also, Healing yourself isn't that hard as you'll
benefit a lot from your high vit.

    "I have found her weakness! She is still unused to the lovely
     eye-patch, which obstructs her view from the left!"
                              -- Koinosuke, Jubei-chan

STR - Strenght
AGI - Agility
VIT - Vitality
DEX - Dexterity
INT - Intelligence
LUK - Luck

STR - affects on character's physical attack strength. Also it enlarges
      character's weight limit so the character can carry more items.
In the words of a Lancer: Strenght, yes you'll need a lot of brute force
unlike those weaklings you'll be able to force yourself into anything.

AGI - is deeply involved with the nibleness of character. AGI increases
      flee rate of character and attack speed of weapons.
In the words of a Lancer: Blech! The **** with this thing, you should've
been a thief instead, those sly creature.

VIT - affects on the defence/health of character. VIT increases the defence
      of character so it enables the character to deal with less damage
      taken from enemies.And it increases the maximum amount of HP and the
      speed of HP recovery.
In the words of a Lancer: Vitality! Who won't want this? We'll be tougher
than rocks and some monsters would barely scratch us.

DEX - affects on character's accuracy rate when attack or the use of weapon.
      It increases average attack strength of weapons, especially the attack
      strength of bows get more affected by DEX.Besides it reduces miss when
      attack,also does the magical skill casting time.
In the words of a Lancer: I like my blows to connect and so will yours. You
should want them like your strenght.

INT - is deeply involved with the magical ability of character. INT
      increases Magical attack strength/defence and regist against magics.
In the words of a Lancer: I think they should be very minimal though I would
want some for a better SP regeneration rate but if you follow me I suggest
you leave them. Brute Strenght is the way to go.

LUK - It means the fortune of character, affects on various situations.
      Besides, the rate of critical attack and perfect dodge are both
      affected by LUK.
In the words of a Lancer: Luck?! Blech! Who needs luck if you can constantly
dish a certain amount of damage.

Comments: This Swordsman is designed mostly to fight in aggressive areas.
They have very high HP, and can regenerate it quick.  However, they are

your RO career.  The preffered build if you like dungeons.

Comments: I'm not sure why I designed one? Believe it or not the only reason
I put this up is for coolness purposes ^_^. I've seen one Knight PvP against
a group of Knights and Battle Acolytes our model dude simply wiped them out
in a very cool fashion. He switched from Bowling then to Brandish. I think
you won't get any cooler than this though the only downside of this
oh-so-cool build is that you're forced to exert that extra mile to earn
them, so surely you'll be as cool as that Knight Dude but you'll be like
around 80+ by then.

Swordsman Skills
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Swordsman have a fair amount of skills.  3 are essential, 3 are quite good, and
2 are so so. It doesn't actually matter if you be a 2 handed swordie or 1 handed
swordie during your swordsman career as the real essence of being a Lancer/
Spearknight is when you've reached the 2nd job level so it's your call, the only
essential thing here is to get at least a level 1 Endure for the Cavalry Skill.

One-Handed Sword Mastery_______________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: None
Active or Passive?: Passive
SP Use: None

Level 1 : ATK +5
Level 2 : ATK +10
Level 3 : ATK +15
Level 4 : ATK +20
Level 5 : ATK +25
Level 6 : ATK +30
Level 7 : ATK +35
Level 8 : ATK +40
Level 9 : ATK +45
Level 10: ATK +50

Comments: 1 point is needed here if you're planning on getting the Auto-Counter
skill which requires 2 handed sword mastery. I suggest you be a 1 handed swordsman
during your swordie career so you won't be wasting a skill point.

Two-Handed Sword Mastery_______________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 1 One-Handed Sword Mastery
Active or Passive?: Passive
SP Use: None

Level 1 : ATK +5
Level 2 : ATK +10

Level 6 : ATK +30
Level 7 : ATK +35
Level 8 : ATK +40
Level 9 : ATK +45
Level 10: ATK +50

Comments: The only reason to invest here is for you to earn the Auto-Counter
skill and Two-Hand Quicken skill other than that upon reaching level 5 you
should invest on something else.

Level 1 : 133% Damage
Level 2 : 166% Damage
Level 3 : 199% Damage
Level 4 : 232% Damage
Level 5 : 265% Damage
Level 6 : 298% Damage
Level 7 : 331% Damage
Level 8 : 364% Damage
Level 9 : 397% Damage
Level 10: 430% Damage

Comments: At level 5 this skill is as hot as it could get but if you're
expecting to get the Bowling Bash skill which I don't actually recommend
as you'll get it's Spear Counter Part Brandish Spear. But if you feel that
you must get the Bowling Bash as well then Max this skill out. Though you
could actually get better results 7/10 times with 2 lvl. bash than a level
10 bash with almost the same casting cost.

Magnum Break___________________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 5 Bash
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 15 SP

Level 1 : 20 Hp used, 115% Damage
Level 2 : 20 Hp used, 130% Damage
Level 3 : 19 Hp used, 145% Damage
Level 4 : 19 Hp used, 160% Damage
Level 5 : 18 Hp used, 175% Damage
Level 6 : 18 Hp used, 190% Damage
Level 7 : 17 Hp used, 205% Damage
Level 8 : 17 Hp used, 220% Damage
Level 9 : 16 Hp used, 235% Damage
Level 10: 16 Hp used, 250% Damage

Note: Thanks to JBKMDX and his Swordsman FAQ for the damage boost on Magnum
Break

Comments: Magnum Break has the fire attribute, so against some enemies it will
hurt more, while others less.  It also has the ability to push enemies back, so
is handy when you are getting mobbed. Level 3 M.Break would be enough also keep
in mind that as you use Magnum Break you're damaging yourself as well. This
isn't as effective as you think it would be other than areas with high-spawn
mobbers which will really cause havoc.

Provoke________________________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: None
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 10 SP

Level 1 : ATK +2%, DEF -6%

Level 8 : ATK +16%, DEF -48%
Level 9 : ATK +18%, DEF -54%
Level 10: ATK +20%, DEF -60%

Comments: Not very useful.  Though it does reduce the defense of an enemy a
good amount at higher levels, and works on percentages, it also increases
attack.  This SP is better used in Bash or Magnum Break. A level 5 Provoke is
needed for the Endure skill which is need for our Cavalry Mastery. Get 5 here!
BTW, Provoke's such an underrated PvP skill. I'll explain later ^_^.

Comments: A somewhat useful skill, it prevents you from flinching when hit.  It
can be nice for fast hitting enemies, but it's high pre-requisite and much
better make it skills make it worth waiting for. Get 1 here!

Comments: Get at least 3 here for the brandish spear. Much like Magnum Break
Spear Stab pushes the enemy back dealing a bash like damage. Stick with
Bash though ^_^.

Brandish Spear_________________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 3 Spear Stab, Level 1 Riding
Active of Passive?: Active
SP Use: 12

Level 1 : 120% Damage, 1 Spread Range
Level 2 : 140% Damage, 1 Spread Range
Level 3 : 160% Damage, 1 Spread Range
Level 4 : 180% Damage, 2 Spread Range

Level 9 : 280% Damage, 3 Spread Range
Level 10: 300% Damage, 4 Spread Range

Note: Only works with Spears

Comments: A very interesting skill, you swing your spear.  It has a very wide
arc of attack at higher levels, not to mention a decent damage boost.  It might
not be bad in high spawn rate aggressive areas (like Geffen 1, for example),
but virtually useless on passive monsters. Get 10 you'll love this.

Spear Boomerang________________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 3 Pierce
Active of Passive?: Active
SP Use: 8

Level 1 : 150% Damage, 3 square range
Level 2 : 200% Damage, 5 square range
Level 3 : 250% Damage, 7 square range
Level 4 : 300% Damage, 9 square range
Level 5 : 350% Damage, 11 Square range

Note: Only works with Spears

Comments: Only having 5 levels is a big plus.  This skill throws your spear
straight out, damage the enemy, and then returns to you to hit the enemy again
on the way back.  Nifty.  We're definitely gonna get this! Give it a 5!

Two-Hand Quicken_______________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 1 2-handed Sword Mastery
Active of Passive?: Active
SP Use: 20

Level 1 : 15 Second Duration
Level 2 : 20 Second Duration
Level 3 : 25 Second Duration
Level 4 : 30 Second Duration
Level 5 : 35 Second Duration
Level 6 : 40 Second Duration
Level 7 : 45 Second Duration
Level 8 : 50 Second Duration
Level 9 : 55 Second Duration
Level 10: 60 Second Duration

Note: Only works with 2-handed Swords

Comments: It doubles your attackspeed for a limited period of time. If you
have that much point to spare get a few of this. 3-5 is enough since it'll
only add 10-30 ASPD. I'm not a very big fan of this though since you'll be
needing them only if you'll be getting the Bowling Bash other than that
stay out of this skill.

Auto-Counter___________________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 5 2-handed Sword Mastery
Active of Passive?: Active
SP Use: 2 SP per counter

Level 1 : 0.3 Second Duration
Level 2 : 0.6 Second Duration
Level 3 : 0.9 Second Duration
Level 4 : 1.2 Second Duration
Level 5 : 1.5 Second Duration

Comments: Only having 5 levels is a big plus.  When used, any enemy that hits
you during its duration will immediatly be countered by a critical hit.  With
a low SP cost, this is a great skill, and should be maxed like 2-hand quicken.
This skill is really, really cheap though, and a lot of people don't really
like how you can MVP so easily with this. Weggy says it all!

Bowling Bash___________________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 5 2-handed Sword Mastery, Level 10 2-hand Quicken, Level
                5 Auto-counter, Level 10 Bash, Level 3 Magnum Break
Active of Passive?: Active
SP Use: 15

Level 5 : 350% Damage
Level 6 : 400% Damage
Level 7 : 450% Damage
Level 8 : 500% Damage
Level 9 : 550% Damage
Level 10: 600% Damage

Note: Only works with 2-handed Swords

Comments: Don't get this though if you took the 2-handed path during your
swordie days get this though you'll be carrying two weapons each time though.

Riding_________________________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 1 Endure
Active of Passive?: Passive
SP Use: None

Level 1 : Allows you to ride a PecoPeco

Comments: Having a PecoPeco is kind of nice for getting you somewhere fast,
but unless you also increase Cavalier mastery it actually makes you weaker.
Rent a PecoPeco from a NPC right outside of the Culvert Registration building,
where you became a Knight.

Note: Contrary to popular belief, this does NOT let you do 100% damage to
mediums with 2 handed swords.  That works ONLY for spears, yet another reason
to leave the birds to the lancers.

Cavalier Mastery_______________________________________________________________

Pre-requisites: Level 1 Riding
Active of Passive?: Passive
SP Use: None

Level 1 : 60% Attack Speed
Level 2 : 70% Attack Speed

                            *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
                            * Where to level? *
                            *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Levels 1-Job Change: You can level on any area that has porings, fabres,
lunatics, pickies, drops, or roda frogs. Just be patient, until you change
job levels then you can level more seriously. Also try leveling up to 4
to 6(base) on the novice training ground. They'll give decent experience,
average drops and if you're lucky enough you might find a fabre card or two.
Upon reaching like around 8 or so you're now able to take on Rockers or a
Thief bug at a time.

Levels Job Change-17/20: Level up on rocker's hill, one south and one west
from prontera city. Rockers gives a nice drop of EXP and decent sellable
item. Just watchout for the Vocal Rocker. You can also try Condors in the
desert. Lunatics and Roda Frogs still gives a decent EXP, they're safe
and still effective.

Levels 18/21-30: Culvert 1 or try the 2nd and 3rd level with a massive killing
party for power leveling. Byalan Dungeon 1, just start with planktons and
kukres. Near level 30 you can try out PecoPecos, Boas and Wolves in the
desert.
Levels 31-40: You can now try Payon 1,2. Culvert 1,2 and 3. Smokie forest.
Byalan 1,2. Horns(Mt.Mjolnir), Orc Village(have a party). Geffen Dungeon 1
for non-stop action. Yoyo Forest, One east, one north and one east from
Prontera city. Elder Willow Map, 2 south, 2 west from prontera city.
PecoPecos are still good to level on.
Levels 41-50: Geffen Dungeon 1, avergae loots, above average Exp drop rate
though the place is full of aggresiveness. Byalan 1 or 2, Excellent loots,
fair EXP. Also you can try Orc Village or stay with Elder Willows until they
stop giving you a nice EXP. Goblin Village if you're VIT is high enough.
Payon 1,2,3 are good for you as well. Try Anacondaqs if you're soloing.
Have a solid party and take on verits in the Pyramid. Drainliars in the
Coal Mine are still decent EXP source.

Levels 51-60: Stay where you're leveling during the levels 41-50. You can
now try several places like Payon 3,4, Byalan 3,4, Hodes, Savages, Sphinx,
Pyramid 2. Sunken Ship.
Levels 61-70: I'd recommend Sphinx level 3 your Heal should be pretty decent
now as well as your stats. Payon 3/4, Coal Mine 4 or Byalan 4 are really
really good if you're tough enough.

Levels 70-99: I say level where you think is good. By now you'll stop going
over this guide as you've absorb as much RO experience you had playing till
this level. Go MVPing with a massive party or stay where you want to level.

Abusing your Vit to level
-------------------------
Levels 1-Job Change: You can level on any area that has porings, fabres,
lunatics, pickies, drops, or roda frogs. Just be patient, until you change
job levels then you can level more seriously. Also try leveling up to 4
to 6(base) on the novice training ground. They'll give decent experience,
average drops and if you're lucky enough you might find a fabre card or two.
Upon reaching like around 8 or so you're now able to take on Rockers or a
Thief bug at a time. Basics here

Levels Job Change-15: You'll have a very decent VIT by this tim. Keep on
killing Rockers till level 15.

Levels 15-25: Culvert 1 or try the 2nd and 3rd level with a massive killing
party for power leveling. Byalan Dungeon 1, just start with planktons, kukres
and Hydras. Take on Vadons when near level 25.
Levels 25-35: You can now try Payon 1,2. Culvert 1,2 and 3. Smokie forest.
Byalan 1,2. Horns, Worm Tail, Stainer(Mt.Mjolnir). Elder Willow Map, 2
south, 2 west from prontera city, Definitely you'll find the Elder Willow
map a heaven no aggresiveness and you can sit freely and continue killing
another E.Willow.
Levels 35-Onwards: Geffen Dungeon 1, avergae loots, above average Exp drop
rate though the place is full of aggresiveness. Byalan 1 or 2, Excellent
loots, fair EXP. Also you can try Orc Village or stay with Elder Willows
until they stop giving you a nice EXP. Goblin Village if you're VIT is high
enough. Payon 1,2,3 are good for you as well. Try Anacondaqs if you're
soloing. Have a solid party and take on verits in the Pyramid. Drainliars
in the Coal Mine are still decent EXP source. Take note having a party would
spare you a hell lot of load specially with a couple of Acolytes.

Levels 51-60: Stay where you're leveling during the levels 41-50. You can
now try several places like Payon 3,4, Byalan 3,4, Hodes, Savages, Sphinx,
Pyramid 2. Sunken Ship. Equip a Cranial Shield after turning into a Knight
and like around job level 20 then take on Orc Heroes/Orc Lords.
Levels 61-70: I'd recommend Sphinx level 3 your Heal should be pretty decent
now as well as your stats. Payon 3/4, Coal Mine 4 or Byalan 4 are really
really good if you're tough enough.

Levels 70-99: I say level where you think is good. By now you'll stop going
over this guide as you've absorb as much RO experience you had playing till
this level. Go MVPing with a massive party or stay where you want to level.

*- Earning Money -*
*-               -*
Tanking is easily done as a Favor yet you could always go through cities for
that service. Tanking usually differs in price depending on the current level
and the targetted level. You can charge as reasonable as you can but don't go
way hyped the price as you'll simple get a flame or something. Another is
through Leeching, most people now a days prefer Leeching than tanking as they
will ahve to position their characters in a safe place and let you do all the
killing while the Shared EXP option is on. You could charge a lot from
leeching than tanking since your customer would be high leveled/early job
leveled characters so your call with the price. I've once had a Leeching
customer pay me 200k (he's a level 23 merchant) to leech for him the whole
day. It's a per hour pay so I think It's a Win situations though some would
be wise enough to get to a certain level if it did happened ask them to make
their characters auto-follow you so you can monitor if they leveled up or not
BTW, position yourself on those maps with no to minimum aggressiveness if
your leeching customer decided to leave their PC running while you work.

The only natural way of earning money is by means of killing monsters.
The choice would be up to you and is depending on your build. I
suggest you go solo all the way and be sure to pick up every single
monster drops from your kills. A way to both get a card/equipment you
desire and at the same time earn money and level up is to plan ahead.
For example you'll be hunting for Yoyo Card. By the time you reached
around level 30+ and you're sure enough you can handle them. Feel
free to head over their forest and start leveling up there. Yoyos
have a very fair drops (Yoyo Tail) and you should be earning nice
EXP during those levels. That's hitting 3 birds at once ^_^. The
General Rule about earning money and/or leveling up I usually would
give is to level up on a monster that you want to earn something
from. I mean, if you want to get a Yoyo Card level up there and
just level up on another place if you've already earned the card.
It's tiring and all but it's worth it. Trust me :D

                 "I dodged it...  Ack! Sword and sheath..."
                   -- Udo Jinee, Rurouni Kenshin

Swordsman - Another Swordsman wouldn't be that bad unless you find the
enemies in the area too hard. Sharing XP with another Swordsman would
defintely depend on where or how powerful the monsters are. If you'll
be teaming up with a fellow swordsman be sure to take advantage of this
and level up on tougher monsters.

Thief - Same us the swordie but mostly thieves won't party with
swordsman. Though in my opinion it's good to have the two jobs than
2 very same jobs. Thieves could keep monsters/aggressive ones away
while you recovery then let him rest as you do your job. It's just a
two way deal. Thieves also could benefit from a tough meat shield as
they deal strong blows in succession.

Acolyte - Preferably a support one. Any party should have at least one
'nuff said.

Mages - I suggest only having one though if you'll be leveling somewhere
like GH or let say you'll be trying Whispers then you should be getting
one they are ultimate offensive weapons though they should always have a
meat shield to protect them that's why with a swordsman around you should
power level while you can.

Archers - Archers are as good as mages though I constantly find having
one around isn't that helpful I would always prefer other classes than
them though they're the best support unit if you can't find any mages
around but considering their elemental arrows you should choose between
it, mages or both.

Merchants - Merchants, I only party with those who really work their ass
off with you. Merchants are nice if they reach the Blacksmith class so
you better be nice to them as they'll own us when they do reach that
level.

Swordsman - Battling another swordsman would simply be a question
of level, build, equipments and skill distribution. Other than
that you can always escape from loosing with the proper card or
a nice strategy. But being a spearknight, you won't have a problem
since you can take and deal damage at them ^_^.

Thief - These nimble creatures are pretty tough for us though if
you're dexterous enough they'll be nothing. Thieves/Assasins only
benefits from their passive skills (Dodge and double attack) alot
and in order to defeat this weak bodied creatures is to hit them.

Acolyte - Battle Acolytes won't be a problem, though battle priest
could be. Just fight head on and use bash as much as you can before
they could heal or run away. They won't have as much HP as you have
so let's take that advantage and go on for the kill.

Mages - Canceling their spells would definitely be the best way
to win over them. So Spear Boomerang is your friend ^_^. Watch out
for those "Safety-wall" Mage since they can really pawn us. Other
than that they're a bunch of weaklings.

Archers - Archers are something we should reckon. They're dexterous
and could hit us at a very far distance then run away as they set
their traps around. Again spear boom is your friend and hit them
hard. If you're able to get close give him everyhting you've got.

Merchants - I don't have much experience battling them so I need
somebody to save me here ^_^.
