- II. Introduction -------------------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________

The following information found in this guide is mostly based on my
experience in playing in pRO (Philippines) version of Ragnarok Online,
playing in private servers (ya, I know it's illegal and all...)
and reading other FAQs/guides on gamefaqs and some of my theories &
observations.

This guide is accurate in stats build and in the skill builds.
My goal is to provide you some ideas on skill builds and stats build
for the different 2-2 jobs.

__________________________________________________________________________
- III. Ragnarok Online ---------------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________

Ragnarok Online is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game
made by Gravity and was inspired by Lee-Myoungin's Manhwa "Ragnarok".
The game is highly addictive due to its many factors (too many to mention)
and lets you interact with many other players in your country or
all over the world.

People would say, "Once you come in... You'll never get out"
Well that's how addictive RO is. (For us gamers)

__________________________________________________________________________
- IV. Rogues: PvP Master -------------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________

                  "The night's fallen angel..."

The iRO Intro:

Enhancing his/her skills learned from the days as a neighborhood ruffian,
everybody avoids his/her eyes. Living in dullness, he/she decides to join the
adventurers gathered by King Tristan III, thinking maybe the skills would work
on monsters as well. As a ruffian would be, he/she can take off an opponent's
armor and take the weapon before the opponent even has the chance to notice,
and is excellent with a dagger. Also, while attacking, he/she is able use
various other skills automatically. When the opponent is strong, he/she becomes
sneaky. When the opponent is weak, he/she becomes peculiarly strong and has
many other strange characteristics.

Others cannot understand and some watch with fright, but in reality,
if he/she gets mad, nothing in sight can be considered safe.

My Intro:

Rogues, somebody mischievous, acting independently and using unorthodox
methods that often cause trouble.

Yaw! that really describes a Rogue! Rogues are all about Inflicting massive
damages on his/her enemy. It's a combination of a Hunter and a Knight with
a twist of a little thief skills. They can use traps and inflict
damages more than a knight can and stealing of a thief.
What I love about them is their Backstab skill and Plagiarism.
Why? because you can easily inflict up to 700% of your damage with the skill.
Plagiarism in the other hand can copy the opponent's last used skill.
They will be one of the "Must Haves" in GvG.

__________________________________________________________________________
- V. Stats essential for Thief ------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________

This part shows the different stats in Ragnarok. There are 6 stats that
affect the Thief in big ways. Be careful in fixing your stats since
once you put them they are already unchangeable.

Strength (STR) ============================================================

1)+1 base damage per point for melee weapons.
2)A bonus of (Str/10)^2 total (ie, at 50 Str, 25 points total) for melee
  weapons where Str/10 is rounded down.
3)+1 base damage per 5 points for missile weapons.
4)+30 carrying capacity per point of Base Str (the left hand part of Str only).

One of the most important stat for the Thief since it affects how
much damage you can dish out. It affects your minimum and maximum damage
too. It also affects your weight capacity so you can carry all that
equipments (Support equips, battle equips and some rations too.)

10 STR: +1 Min/Max Damage
20 STR: +4 Min/Max Damage
30 STR: +5 Min/Max Damage
40 STR: +8 Min/Max Damage
50 STR: +10 Min/Max Damage
60 STR: +12 Min/Max Damage
70 STR: +13 Min/Max Damage
80 STR: +15 Min/Max Damage
90 STR: +17 Min/Max Damage
100 STR: +19 Min/Max Damage

The bonus add up in such a way that once you reach that certain amount of
strength the pluses add to your Min/Max damage. It means that when you
have 60 STR you have a +41 Min/Max damage bonus.

This is how it works (STR + Weapon Attack + Bonus + Weapon upgrade)

Agility (AGI) =============================================================

1)+1 flee per point.
2)Increased attack speed per point
(complicated, but based on the atk speed of the weapon you are using in the
class you are in).

The partner of Vitality in making a defensive character.
But Agility is more than that, 1 Agi is equivalent to +1 Flee and
also adds to your ASPD. Higher ASPD means Faster Killing time.
Agility is very Vital to Thieves because it's their main arse.

Vitality (VIT) ============================================================

1)+1% to MaxHP per point.
2)+0.8 weapon damage reduction (defensive) per point.
3)Healing items effect increased by +2% per point.
4)Every 5 full points of VIT increases HP Recovery Power by 1
5)For monsters, there is a bonus to damage reduction of
  rnd(0,[VIT/20]^2-1).
6)For players, there is a bonus to damage reduction of
  [VIT*0.5] + rnd([VIT*0.3], max([VIT*0.3],[VIT^2/150]-1)).
7)There is a hidden bonus of +1 Int style MDEF per 2 points.
8)Increasing VIT also decreases the chance of being afflicted by the
  negative status affects of Poison, Silence and Stun.

I do not recommend a Pure ViT Thief, due Thief only use AGI as their main
defense and VIT is only used as a support. Often Vit are taken after
you finished your build (that's where all your extra stat should go).

Intelligence (INT) ========================================================

1)+1 Base MAtk per point.
2)+1% to MaxSP per point.
3)SP Recovery items effect increased by +2% per point.
4)Every 6 full points of INT increases SP Recovery Power by 1 and
  past 120 INT, every 2 INT gives a bonus to SP Recovery Power of 1.
5)A bonus to MinMAtk of (Int/7)^2 total where (Int/7) is rounded down.
6)A bonus to MaxMatk of (Int/5)^2 total where (Int/5) is rounded down.
7)+1 spell damage reduction (defensive) per point.
8)Increasing INT also decreases the chance of being afflicted by the negative
  status affects of Blind, Sleep and Stone Curse.

Intelligence is not recommended to have, leaved it to 1.
But you can stack all your remaining stats points here just to aid your
SP consuming.

Dexterity (DEX) ===========================================================

1)+1 to hit per point.
2)Increased attack speed per point.
3)+1 base damage per point for missile weapons.
4)Bonus of (Dex/10)^2 total (ie, at 50 Dex, 25 points total)
  for missile weapons where dex/10 is rounded down.
5)+1 base damage per 5 points for melee weapons.
6)+1 minimum damage per point for melee weapons. If Dex exceeds the
  Atk value of the melee weapon, use the Atk of the melee weapon for
  the min value (ie. max and min values become the same).
7)Reduces spell casting time by a percentage calculated as Dex/1.5
  (ie. 30 Dex = 20% casting time reduction).
8)+0.1% forging and refining rates for Blacksmiths.

This stat raises your accuracy and your maximum/minimum damage.
+1 Dex means +1 Hit same as the Agi-Flee but this stat
counteracts that. The standard DEX is 40.
Dex also has an influence in ASPD.

DEX          Min/Max Damage
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
20           +3
30           +4
40           +5
50           +6
60           +8
70           +10
80           +12
90           +13
100          +14

Luck (LUK) ================================================================

1)+1 base damage per 5 points of Luk for missile and melee weapons.
2)+1 crit chance per 3 points of Luk.
3)+1 "lucky" dodge chance (the right hand part of your flee value)
  per 10 points of Luk.
4)+0.1% forging and refining rates for Blacksmiths per point.
5)Increasing LUK also decreases the chance of being afflicted by any
  negative status affect.

This stat is very useful for those who are going for the Crit Rogue.
Luck affects your avatar by:
Crit Chance: every 3 LUK = +1 Critical
Perfect Dodge: Every 10 LUK = +1 Dodge (that's the +x in your flee.)
If you want a real Crit Character, I recommend that you raise your
LUK to 60+ and equip a Triple/Quad Crit weapon.
But really... Crits are only for assassin because Katar Class weapons
have double Crit rating.

- VI. How to get there ---------------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________

[Thief]-------------------------------------------------------------------
You start out as a Novice (of course!) I require you to go through the test
in the Midgard Academy and take the hell out of those annoying Fabres.
In the Fabre Forest take the time to level. Level up there until you are
If your' satisfied of your Blvl, then take the exam. Much better if they will
recommend the Acolyte job for you (like I do) there's a little plus in this,
but I prefer that they require you the swordie job so you can get yourself
a red potion for free.

As you step in the world of Midgard try to level up as soon as you can.
Much better if someone will tank you. After you reached the Jlvl 10 of
Novice. Proceed to the Thief Guild, that's inside the Morroc Pyramids
in the Lower lv2. it's in the left room in the hall.

After applying, the NPC tells you to collect some "Mushrooms" in the
Mushroom Warehouse. A NPC named Bogus Man will warp you to the place
he's outside the Pyramids near the water.

|JOB BONUSES:|
o------------o
These do not add up like min/max damage. It works like this. Once you reach
that job level that is how much stat bonuses you get. If you are at job
level 42 you get +4 Vitality not all of the other job bonuses added up.

[Rogue]--------------------------------------------------------------------
Go to Faros Lighthouse Island (Located at 196,117). You can go there by
Comodo warp.  Talk to the NPC there, and proceed to talk to the old man
nearby to take tests.

First, you will have to collect some items and bring it back.

When you bring it back, you are asked to distribute those items to:

Aragarm Jr. 106, 195 of Fortress St. Darmain, East of Pharos Lighthouse
Holgen Jr. 335, 143 of Fortress St. Darmain, East of Pharos Lighthouse
Antonio Jr. 304, 180 of Kokomo Beach

Go there, and solve the secret code.

When you return, you will take a final test, a test to see if you
can escape a dungeon. When you pass this, you can finally become a Rogue.

Backstab        Lv.10
Tunnel Drive    Lv.5

This build can almost equal the Hunter's skills.
and NO they cannot match Double Strafe with our Backstab.
Still at Ver.1 need to update soon.

[Rogue Bow Build]---------------------------------------------------------
Ver. 2.0 "Paul Magajes" <maptech_15@yahoo.com>

Vultures Eye    Lv.10
Double Strafe   Lv.10
Steal Coin      Lv.4 (just as a pre-requisite to gain Backstab)
Snatcher        Lv.4 (just Pre-requisite also)
Tunnel Drive    Lv.5
Backstab        Lv.10
Raid            Lv.5 (additional skill, just to use the remaining skill points)

Contributer's Note: this is good in PvP and just for levelling up
PvP: tunnel Drive then Backstab your enemy and then backslide twice and then
     finally use double strafe.

[Rogue Bow Build]---------------------------------------------------------
Ver. 3.0 Hansel Ong <kylene_lesnah@yahoo.com>

Vulture's Eye        Lv.10
Double Strafe        Lv.10
Gank                 Lv.4
Mug                  Lv.4
Back Stab            Lv.4
Stalk                Lv.2
Sightless ind        Lv.5
Snatch               Lv.5
Intimidate           Lv5

PS: Vulture's Eye and Double Strafe will be your bread
and butter. All other skills are prequisites of Snatch
and Intimidate. I think level 5 intimidate is good
enough to be cool, and a little strong. I suggest
getting Storm Gust. Remember to put some stat points
in your INT , 20~30 will be good i suppose, since
spamming double strafe is SP consuming, and your storm
gust (or Heal rather) won't be put to waste.

Use the snatching skills (Stripping Skills) or Auto-Steal with the

more because of the low damage (The enemy dies slower).

After strippin the enemy use your offensive equips and go for the
kill.

Attack: 90
Bonus: Lucky Dodge +20, LUK +5
Cost: --- Dropped by Phreooni
Required Lvl: 36
Weapon Lvl: 43

The hottest dagger in the market because of it's Whisper Card like

And that means your target will be weaker.

[Bazelard]----------------------------------------------------------------
Attack: 70
Bonus: Fire Property, +15% MATK

Nice, because of Fire Elem, but much better for Battle-Sages.

[Counter Dagger]----------------------------------------------------------
Attack: 75

there is still no Crit bonus indicated. (As of uypdate.)

[Weeder Knife]------------------------------------------------------------
Attack: 80
Bonus: Pierces defense of Veggie type monsters
Cost: ???
Required Lvl: 36
Weapon Lvl: 4

       Attack Strength + (Attack Strength*Defense of the Target / 100)
Cost: ???
Required Lvl: 36
Weapon Lvl: 4

They say that this dagger works just like the Monk's skill Investigate.
So this can be proved useful in GvGs/PvPs to kill FS Priest and VIT Knights.

[Princess Knife]----------------------------------------------------------
Attack: 84
Bonus: +1 to all stats
Cost: ???
Required Lvl: 1
Weapon Lvl: 4

Pretty much useless...

Cost: --- Dropped by Osiris
Required Lvl: 36
Weapon Lvl: 4

Quite good. but has elem so you can't use it just anywhere you like.
Natural elemental weapons like this is far more greater than of forged ones.
You can't forge a dark elemental weapon so be sure to save one atleast.

[Sucsamad]----------------------------------------------------------------
Attack: 140
Bonus: Unbreakable
Cost: ???
Required Lvl: 36
Weapon Lvl: 4

A decent Dagger, cannot be destroyed by Sword Breaker.
That's all.

Attack: 150
Bonus: can cause darkness to it's user

- XII. MVP'ing as a Rogue ------------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________
Since I don't MVP much and I have no experience, I can't make a good
MVP guide and I don't know how to MVP using AGI builds >_<.
I prefer Hybrids. BTW, This part of the guide is contributed by
Martin Cheng <patheticlittlemoron@hotmail.com> and same with the
WoE Rogue guide. Thanks man, you saved me!

1. As a rogue, you absolutely CANT mvp without a tank and a support,
   unless you are packed with Yggdrasil Berries(which is quite hard to do).
2. You must have quick reflexes, and fast fingers with spammable sp
   healers. (And a quick connection i.e. DSl etc...)
3. Your tank must be constantly attacking to divert the MVP's attention
   away from you.
4. Raid like a maniac, applicable only if you have massed SP healing items
   in your inventory to spare.

*  you can only Backstab once because of the update which fixed the skill
   and daggers are still great due to Double Slash skill and it is still
   affected by the Sword Mastery.

This isn't a fool-proof way to get the MVP, because rogues simply are
not designed to do that. Tanks will probaby gain more MVP points through
all the damage they're gonna take, and rogues won't do much even with the
strong damage of backstab due to limited usage.

From:
Wes Rasha <ubarathief@yahoo.com>
This is hard.  There is a way to do it though.  First is to deal with the
GTB glitch, not sure if this was fixed.  The main skill a rogue can use
for MVP hunting is Plagiarism, aka, act like a wizard.  Plagiarism lets
you use the skill last used on you. As a rogue, your best bet is to
steal a big skill, have an ally use on you in PVP, GC is a good one, then
keep the skill by equiping a GTB card so you cant be affected by skills. 
When you go stalker, this becomes easier as you have the preserve skill
which, when you use it, the skill you absorbed with Plagiarism can not be
changed when you are affected by a different skill.  As long as you are
going in a group, snatch is always a good skill with flywings, since you
steal one of there mob members, then warp away, so the mob isnt killed
and respawned.

- XIII. WoE Rogue --------------------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________
Contributed by:
Martin Cheng <patheticlittlemoron@hotmail.com>

WoE is a different story though, rogues pawn in that.

1.Stay hidden-dont go near priests, monks, wizards or sages. They're
  dangerous. Hunters will be too busy fighting to detect you.

2.Closely sink in behind a target, then you can split into 3 different
  things:

A:
3.If your guild is scattering THEN destroying the opposing force, then
  use intimidate and kill that person after you intimidate to a good,
  beneficial location. (Intimidate's teleport feature is banned in Sieges.)

B:
3.If your guild is outright killing the whole guild, backstab and hope
  the controller on the other end dont respond fast enough and gets killed
  by a few swift strokes. (That is until Umbala/Kunlun Update. Due to the
  error in the map sprites, after the said updates once you backstab your
  target he will auto face you and backstab WILL NEVER BE AGAIN spammable
  and also you can't use bows anymore.)

C:
3.If the enemy guild is bunched up together, raid like no tomorrow and
  watch as they all fall within seconds of your fury.

4.When at the Emperium, run up to it and slash it vigorously with a SWORD,
  because iirc Emps cant be damaged by double slash (It would only miss.),
  and swords are the next best thing. (Sword Mastery)

Rogue -
Stalk for WoE is good, make sure to avoid detectors, mainly Priests and
Mages, sometimes also Hunters. Also, try to move for awhile for scouting
to seewhat other players might have Horong Cards (Sight Level 1, Accessory).
Skills to remember -
Throw Stone. Perfect against agi characters since it stuns.
It is also a good assist skill, perhaps better at times then backstab
as Backstab turns your opponents attention towards you. Multiple rogues
for backstab though can easily take out an opponent do to the never missing
feature and damage.  If you are wanting to go backstab build for WoE, focus
Strength and Agility since your skill doesnt miss.  This will also work on
all enemies that can not detect invisible.
Sightless Mind/Raid. It was a useful skill, however, with a delay time now,
it isnt as devastating as it once was.  Still though, it has a chance to
stun and blind, deals splash damage so it doesnt miss, and at max level
hits for 250%.
Divest/Strip Skills. These skills alone can help destroy most huge threats
in WoE, seeing that it stops classes that rely on specific items, i.e.,
Spear Knights, removes Ghostring Armor, removes Angeling Armor from
Grand Cross Crusaders, removes Angeling Armor from Priests that give
your weapon holy property, etc.  The most important of the two are Divest
Weapon and Divest Armor, though Divest Shield is powerful against Sacrifice
Crusaders and the such, i.e., stop Shield Reflect.

*Also good againts EMP Breakers, Disvet their weapons so they would not post
threat anymore.
Stalker -
Stalker skills on the most part are WoE/PVP made, but have a use for monsters
also.
Chase Walk.  This is the WoE infiltration skill. No more fear from Sight,
Detect and Ruwach. Also, movement is faster, but still stick to walls since
footsteps are seen and you can be detected if hit by an area effect spell.
You can probably get away with 1 point into this skill.
Divest All. When it succeeds, it can help destroy players.
Use this to support your frontline fighters in WoE by removing all equipment.
Against monsters, it lowers Defense by 30% and Attack by 10%.  Max this skill.
Reject Sword. Works against all monsters, even ranged, so its nice to
have at level 3, a 45% chance of working, since though 75% is good, it
isnt that necessary.  The skill is good against sword swordies, rogues,
and dagger sins.
Equipment
Some equipment good to have for WoE.
2 Sets of Armor.
-Ghost Armor (Ghostring Card)
      Less damage from non-elemental attacks. Always good to have.
-Holy Armor (Angeling Card)
      No damage from Holy Damage.  This has multiple purposes.
      First, it lets you not die to Grand Cross.  That means while the
      Sader is casting, you can stand next to him/her and divest away.
      Also, now a fellow priest can give an opponents weapon holy property,
      making you immune to that character.
Orc Hero Card
      +3 Vit, Immune to Stun. Simply put, you wont lose in a throw stone fight
      since you cant be stunned.  It is a way to make sure most rogues wont
      have an advantage on you. Looks pretty in slotted sunnies. [Headgear]
Raydric Card
      Since you have the Increase Dodge skill, you won't be needing much
      Dodge+ items so just have yourself the Immune Muff/Manteau to reduce
      Melee damages.

(I have modded some of the details that I think will be more suitable
with this/that situation.)

Must have skills in PVP againts all class (for dagger rogue).

a) Have +4 immune muff, +4 cranial guard, +5-10 Triple Bloody Gladius.
b) Lv.10 Back Stab, Lv.10 Sword Mastery and Stalk Lv.2
c) Have all of the quest skills
d) know your distance( back slide and enemy attack sange)
e) MOST important be evil and fight dirty.
d) Observe your enemy know your map and be patient.

Pros and cons of dagger PvP Rogue:

Cons:

-Can NOT kill full vit saders and some vit knights.
-Must only fight one person at a time.
-Never show yourself EVER!
-Must finish fight quickly.
-Hard to fight an honorable duel with your buddy.
-VERY low HP.

Pros:
-Can move while hiding
-Can do deadly damage with Backstab skill.
-Most confusing class to fight with.
-Anything that has low HP is candy for the rogue.

*Rougues have the biggest element of surprise in the game don’t just use
it often go wild with it. (Hide and Backstab.)

*I cant say this enough FIGHT CHEAP it's what the rogue is made for.

Skills:

*My favorites and must have skills: Backstab, Stalk & Hide.

*My second and very loved Intimidate(Plagiarism)
the rogues copy skill. Take the time to get the needed skill.
Against VIT a must have is poison dust since it will reduce the HP in %
or if you have envenom get Enchant poison.
*Snatch(Intimidation) you absolutly need this one, taking a single oponent
from a party is a huge advantage.

*Sightless Mind(Raid) stuns & blinds by low chance, may prove helpful in
attacking mobs or if you want to KS in PVP.

*Sword Mastery, get it, it makes Double Damage and Backstab stronger.

*To fight with honor means:
Starting a fight a 5-8 cells distance againts your opponent and
starting the duel with a count and a /go signal and not hiding nor
escaping your opponent for more then 10 sec and do not fight cheap.

*Fighting Cheap means:
Staking everyone, whenever somone is low hp (in a fight or not) Backstab him
and take the kill, hiding and moving fast, dealing damage to your enemy and
hiding to avoid damage/death, running away is not cowardly, it's a
strategy when you are low hp. Potion your way to recover and come
back and finish off your oponent. Fight battles this way and you'll
have a slightly hig winning rate, study your prey stalk him all the time
look at him fight, attack somone busy chatting.
fighting alone sometimes is good, take one enemy at a time, snatch them
if you have to AND by all means kill people for no reason at all. 

Strategy:

Mage/Wizard/Sage:
These guys/girls are your best prey, sneak up on them or back slide behind them
and Backstab and if you want to play with them just hit them till they are
baked and if you are a show off like me just stun them with Sightless Mind
or Teleport Them with Snatch (getting stuned or blind is most annoying)
I can’t say this enough you must know your enemies since sight coud be
devastating.

Crusaders:
Don’t bother killing those as you have no time to waste and propably won't
even win due to the little damage you will inflict on them. As for some
fighting strategy, stun them (If you can) then back stab, slide away if
they use grand cross. If you want to kill saders FAST you need to strip
them of their clothes. And I mean even the boxers. If you are like me
and have something like no stripping powers unless you have shadow
property daggers or have ghostring armor and golden thief bug shield don’t
bother killing them since they will just heal their huge hp while you waste sp.

Additional info:
According to my battle experience with great Ikamuni, Battling Shield saders
is hopeless for Rogues especially the new breed of battle-saders are mostly
Hybrids so stunning them would be diffcult. GC Crusders on the other hand
are just a snatch away to victory and a slide away to defeating them.
Just don't let them be with their party especially Priestm since GC takes away
HP and easy to avoid, you may snatch them always especially to broadband users
since their loading time are much more faster than those of DSLs and Dial-Ups
the nest thing the opponent will now is a blackscreen
(due to frequent teleporting) and their avatar sleeping soundly.
Knights:
Be smart, unless its an AGI knight don’t bother killing them 'cuz of the
very hated Spear Boomerang but if you really want to fight, blinding those
idiots with sand attack is the best thing then sneak up on em and back
stab then hide again. And Sightless Mind them till they are stunned.

Additional info:
Again, I think it's not the Spearboom that you should fear them of but their
Bash-till-you-stun-then-I'll-pierce-you! for the dummies, that's equiping
any VVS weapon then bash them (need attack weakpoint quest skill) when the
opponent is stunned quickly change to a Bloody weapon then pierce to death.
This technique is mostly used againts any low HP AGI types and well, very
effective. So I recommend that you avoid any Hybrid/VIT type swordsman class.

Hunters:
This is one of my favorite killing classes, the feard hunters are nothing
to the rogue, if you ever find one fighting someone or not;
(use hide often) hide seek them and wait thil they stop moving for
a sec and Backstab them a couple of times with absolutely low hp they
don’t stand a chance and in by some miracle they manage to breake free,
their DS take a sec to cast, be quick, hide and move away when they
detect/Improve Concentration quickly slide away and try again in 1-2 min
with their guard down and their hp not full (if they don’t have pots)
be carfull to not get trapped for the one very cheap sleep trap since
the ZzZzz will show your locaton even if in Stalk status and that's for a
very long time.

Additional info:
I think it's better to spam backstab (if backstab is still spammable in your
server) or stun them since they well mostly are AGI types. Just don't
let them DS you, remember that they have a 75% hit rate on you.
160 dexers are well, will hit you MOST OF THE TIME.

Asassin:
Crap and crap again, you can NOT win in open field combat against a sin
especially crit ones. If you want to fight these guys you can, and you
can win if you play smart, stalk and back stab them again and again.
Avoid crit ones since it won't miss you.

Rogues:
Simple be cheaper than the other rougue, hide all the time, back slide when
he is to close and by all means if you have a bow and sighting clip use
them and back slide away, it’s a VERY cheap way to fight your own class.
And if you get your weapon stripped hide and escape.
Remember rougues have no honor and are meant to fight cheap.
Alchemist:
Makes me a happier man to see them in PVP. These guys are cool to fight but
don’t be a dumbass, alchemist have pot throw and acid bottle and a very feared
and a favorite of mine, Marine Spheres. Alchemist are preaty easy to fight,
all the summons take to much time and can be interupted if you hit them.
Floras won't hit you since you have way too high flee, the grenades won't
affect you since you will sneak up on him. Marine sphears are a danger to your
life. If they lock on you back slide in an instant those things can take out
as much as 5k of your hp but takes a long time to cast so just hit the freak
before he's done. Finally the only skill you shoud fear, Acid bottle, the very
cheap alchemist will get a high damage weapon ,a lot of STR and lot of HP
hitting you with 400 damage a hit with acid trow and healing himself with
Pot trow 1.5k+ per throw. If taken by surprise and with good timing you might
kill him before he reacts.

Smith:
What to say, be carfull these guys can stun you and often have high HP and
awsome weapons, at high lvl they become extremly fast with adrenaline rush and
if you get stunned which will happen often because of you don't have any vit,
they will run through your hp like hot knife through butter. The best way to
fight them is to stun them first (if you can) and hide then Sightless Mind
these guys as much as you want.

Priest:
(NOTE: He has wrong info about priests so I removed the whole of it then
replaced it with my own info.)
They are the most worth killing since once you've taken out a priest, well you
almost take his partner easier, since they would probably support their party.
Killing them is very hard due to they are mostly VIT exception to ME and BP's
type of priests. VIT and has high heal level, most high leveled priest has 2k
heal. That's a handful for a person. try to kill his partner instead or
have a party to kill priest. You will probably waste too much time killing one.

Monk:
Feared for their ASURA strike and Finger Offensive.

Asura monk:
Muahahahah kill these guys for fun, they suck in HP with 3 continous backstab
and they are gone, stalk them wait for an asura strike on someone else
calculate the opposite side wait and back stab them. It's that simple.

Combo monk:
Eeeep run these guys kick ass all the way. They are quick, dodge good, have
good hp, aspd, and hit and can see you if you hide . There is only one way
to fight them, the cheapest way ever. Raid them till they are stunned then
sand attack them till they are blind and stun them again before they cast
sight finally just backstab them from time to time and dissapear behind the
blind range  if you don’t finish them off soon they will heal and its all
over again, even if you strip them they are gonna spirit sphere your ass
and fist you anyway.

Other types:
mostly monks are hard to build and most fall in the other not very good type
of build but still watch out since they usualy have guillotine fist and heal
but run low on sp pretty soon.

All first class:
Rare , have some dignity for once and don’t be cheap, just pass by and don’t
attack unless they are getting on your nerves or that there is like 10 of them.

- XV. Leveling Spots -----------------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________

All the things I will mention here are from my experience as a Thief.
for the 2nd time. But this will also depend on your money, equipments,
patience and friends as *Edge says.

1-10: All monsters that in the map that is 1map away from cities.
I recommend that you level up in the Sograt desert and battle those
Drops, Condors, Pickies and Super Pickies.

11-20: Go to the Rocker Fields and battle them or if you're daring you
can always try the Ambernites. If you have yourself a good party or a
friend that is in a high level you can ask him to tank you in the
Byalan island (I did this).

21-30: Try the culverts if you want and also try Payon lv2. I stick to
Byalan by this level until Blevel 50. ^_^ the place is good up to level 2
that is. the aggressiveness is low and you can get yourself to rest.

31-40: Stick to one place. I recommend Byalan or Orc Dungeon.

41-50: Try to stick to one place, Byalan 2 will be good.

51-60: Haaayy..... This is the semi-boring years I would say. If your AGI
is high enough you could always try the Sohees. (Bonguns are a pain in the
neck!)

61-70: You can have your Job Change by these level if your going for the
Jlvl50 Change. Stick to Sohees or Mummies if your daring.

71-80: By this level, Try the GH or Alde Baran Dungeon and by the way...
Your by yourself by this... It's up to you to find your self a good leveling
spot.

81+: 80+!? Why don't join our guild? hehehe ^_^ Try MVP'ng.

- XVII. FAQ's ------------------------------------------------------------
__________________________________________________________________________

"Oliver Suñaz" <eandr4ev@yahoo.com> asked:

1. Have you actually played the rogue before? or you just reviewed
   the skills and made the builds out of your observations?

-> I have played a Rogue in a private Server. I can't simulate a
   good MVP'ing experience since my equips are so unrealistic and
   you can only solo-MVP because I play alone in my house and not in a
   cafe or in a computer shop.
2. If a rogue plagiarizes a knight who used spear stab, can the rogue copy
   that? Or it requires a spear for a rogue to equip? same goes for a
   hunter's double strafe.. do u need a bow?

-> Yes, you need to meet all the requirements in order to use the skill.
3. Can a rogue equip two daggers like a dagger-sin?

-> No they can't.

I Accept emails especially if you want to contribute to this guide.

I will be glad to answer your questions.
Basta hindi ako busy...

                         *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
                         * E-Mail/Contacts Policy -
                         *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
Why'd I suddenly summon a E-Mail/Contacts Policy section? Simply to
categorize every mail that I've been receiving 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.

Before everything else, please try to read the comments before mailing
because your inquiry maybe already answered. Please read with understanding.

*- E-Mails -*

Do’s and Don’ts
---------------
1.  Only send me questions that can't be found on my guide. I will be more
    happy to help you in this case.

2.  Try to be specific in defining something or when stating what had
    happened.
    So I won't be e-mailing you back for some questions that'll simply
    consume our precious time.

3.  I WON'T BE ACCEPTING OR BE OPENING ANY MAILS THAT HAVE ATTACHMENTS.

4.  Check the latest version of the guide before sending in any questions,
    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.  (PLEASE READ IF YOU WILL E-MAIL ME)
    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). AND PLEASE TYPE PROPERLY!!!

7.  Don't be persistent, don't e-mail me the very same question that I've
    already answered.

8.  Don't send me nonsense e-mails like "How much is..." "Can you buy me
    this?"

9.  Be nice! Don't use bad words in your mail.

10. No Chain Mails!
    Doing anything that isn't allowed will automatically make your address be
    blocked from any future mail you might possibly send.

As noted by Weggy:
- DON'T OPEN E-MAIL ATTACHMENTS... EVER!  Unless you talk to someone who says
  "I'm going to send you a file called blahblah.jpg", never ever open them,
  even if they are from someone you know.  This is the #1 way virii and other
  nasty things are spread.

And...
  Some Virus E-Mails sends by themselves through the people in your
  address book. Just don't open Attachments especially if it is a .zip/.exe
  they are likely to be a virus.
