Im really into pvp so i was thinking of being a blader or force blader. Definately dont wanna be a FA so rule that out. what type of armor should I wear if i was a blader and which class would u reccomend?

dont rule out FA just because they're long range and looks weak
once they reach lvl 50 and bust out their guns they're lethal O_O (trust me i tried to pvp one thinking the same thing and bam dual guns in my face and i'm a warrior)
not to mention their damn crit shots
they have a skill that boosts their crits
armor wise you cant choose
Blader/Wizards only get light armors
Force blader, force archers only get mid armors
Shields/ Warriors, only get heavy armors

Sorry, not like SRO, can't choose the armor

You CAN CHOOSE the armor...

heavy armor requirements for warrior and blader are the same... you can wear all warior things as blader!

Its right that your much better with this armor and could win vs all warriors but the highest class armor is specific...

If you want to wear warrior items as blader make sure you want to be strenth and no dex blader

So there 3 Armor types but the highest armor is for each class

lol
aimless............
you DO know about the growth stats right?
meaning if your stats arent at a specific lvl you cant get to the next rank and you cant get your awesome skills
and err yes you CANT choose
every armor is limited to 2 classes
believe me
I'VE PLAYED!!! and if its true that you can choose armors then why dont you see warrior looking bladers around or warriors with blader armor

yup you cant choose btwn armour, each class is limited to a type of armour, and inorder to wear them you must add the right stats too, even weapons have specifications, there is warrior sword and bladder sword both swords but a blader will not be able to use warrior sword even with right stats

Their reasoning was that the naturally high def rate of FBs would work well with the higher defense of the heavier armours.

The top-tier armours are class-specific, that's true. But there's still the matter of slots (which you can use to upgrade armours with +HP and the like). Slotted Osmium is abundant, while slotted Teragrace, Mystic and Shineguard are rare to practically nonexistent (personally, I have not seen slotted top-tier armour yet). So the question becomes whether you want to go slotted (and upgraded) Osmium or unslotted tera/mystic/shine.

To make matters even more complicated, there's certain maps on EVERY channel where members of the opposing countries are able to pk each other...which can also lead to some nice CvC battles if both sides call in reinforcements.

As for a recommended class: Since you don't want to play a FA and I don't think Wizards are the pwnage class at PvP, I'd recommend either a Force Blader or a Warrior with a slight tendency towards the latter. Since you can use pots in pk fights, it's all about delivering a crushing blow with a lot of instant damage...Warriors are rather good at that.

Oh and before you ask: FS just generally suck, at least in my opinion...so that's out of the question ^^

OMG YOU CAN BELEAVE ME I PLAYED EUROPEAN VERSION AND I PAYED FOR 1 MONTH!

AND I GOT A BLADER WITH WARRIOR ARMOR AN ALL MY GUILDMATES WHO ARE BLADERS TOO!

Just ask around in forums on cabalonline.com...

NEJI nr1 in TOPlist was the first who tried this!

AND YOU CAN GET YOUR GROWTHGOAL!!! There are enough DEX pots you can buy and spend your points to str after reaching goal!

But its totally usless for warrior taking bladerarmor -.-
Because you cant wear your weapons...
ok you can but then you can wear bluestin greatsword when your wearung osmium bladerarmor.

Try it...

Buy the lowest warrior armor and if you got the warrior requirements you can wear it... you can do this until osmium! And its great because you can stronger mobs an take less dmg!

In the end there are 6 armor types:
Mystic(BL) - Blader
Mystic(WZ) - Wizard
Shineguard(WA) - Warrior
Shineguard(FS) - Forceshielder
Teragrace(FB) - Forceblader
Teragrace(FA) - Force archer

I tried to wear shineguard plate(WA)... spend millions for dex pots... but that didnt worked

... spending my time make ppl beleave me ...


lol sorry countzero ^^ didnt mentioned your post :P but your right man! 200hp more is better then 20 def more... and its really hard to get that highest stuff... so you can wear a long time your warrior osmium armor 2xslotted +6 if your blade wearing blader ^^

1) OKOK say you DO use the warrior stats which is 389str 49int 97dex. i'm sure you'll be maintaining the dual blade/katana or else why are you playing blader
so lets take a look at the blades and katana

the stats needed to use a red osmium blade is 292str 49int 195dex.....o what do you know you need a good 100more dex to use this item. 100 dex = 20 lvls.....

the stats needed to use a red osmium katana is 195str 49int 292dex........ok i'm not even gonna bother with this

in the end......
wearing warrior armors will leave you no room for current weapons .........

after all this typing
i conclude bladers cant wear heavy armors EVEN if they can they cant use weapons of their lvl. they will be force to use a lvl 20 weapon

and if a lot of these people do it how come i havent seen a single one of global cabal? i'm sure people will have tried it. i mean hell there was a magic warrior so why cant there be a heavy blader right? well thats because it cant be done

therefore heavy blader? non existant

on the EU forums every 1 says that str bladers are better... what lvl is the blader whose stats you showed? im pretty sure at higher levels you can wear heavy and use a osmium blade/katana... maybe im wrong but thats just what i gathered from the EU forums.

@black_joker

Now I don't know about global Cabal, but in the EU version Red Osmium blades have a level limit of 99. So I asked a guildmate to give me the stats of a FB he used to play for a little while. Here goes:

Level: 58
Str: 170
Int: 34
Dex: 160
Skill ranks: Sword Expert/Magic Apprentice

That's 41 level-ups (205 stat points) till level 99 alone.
Since I would need an additional 269 stat points for both heavy srmour and RO blades, and assuming that I would be at least G.Master/Master at that level (4 rank-ups Sword, 4 rank-ups Magic), you can _easily_ get enough stat points to wear both.
So either the numbers are very different in global cabal, or you missed something in your calculations. Heavy bladers do exist in EU cabal, and from what I hear, they do very well, too.

lolz.. black_joker.. u've did a very huge major mistake.. u forget to add in de stats u get when u rank up.. dex is easier to receive due to de fact that when u rank up physical skill, u receive bonus in str and dex while magic receive bonus of int and dex.. therefore dex is not necessary added.. for ur info, i'm a blader and i did not even add any dex.. who say heavy blader is non existence.. do u mean i does not exist? lolz...

Switching info and opinians is good but please tone down a lil to avoid any misunderstanding.Take it as a opinians switching thread,Thanks ^^
