The adv sheep is required to pick 2 elements out of the 5 available to use for the rest of their life, this choice is just as important as selecting a stat build, this ultimately determines how your character will be played, how fast it will level up, and its role in life. b.

To select an element, you must purchase the skill card of a preliminary prerequisite skill with no levels but is the prerequisite of all elemental spells in that element. d. Once your first element is selected, the two elements not immediately next to it becomes closed to you forever, and you must choose an element from the remaining two. For example, if you select earth, then you must select either fire or wind next. e. To clarify all that, there are only FIVE possible builds with this system: . Lightning/Fire . Fire/Earth .

Stat Builds, which one is best for you? All sheeps have a magic stat of 4, this is locked for us before we start, and I doubt any of us wants anything in power, so all sheep builds are 14xx, which means we have 4 different builds possible 1Power, 4Magic, 1Sense, 4Charm This build features high hp, high defense, and high evasion rate, essentially it is very hard for you to die with this build, however, your hit rate is incrediblly low and you will suffer for it for a very long time...notice I didn't say permanently. Without anything in sense, you won't be able to synthesize very much, you will probably have to resort to buying potions instead of making them, nor can you carry very much with you. But your cure spell will heal yourself for a lot more than anyone else. If you like a support role, or believe a good defense is a good defense, this may be the build for you Early on in the game, your character will essentially be struggling to hit anything, but late game, this character has the greatest survivability out of all 4 builds. Later, as long as you can get your hands on very good luck equipment, you'll be alright 1Power, 4Magic, 2Sense, 3Charm This build is the average joe build, agreed upon by the japanese/chinese/korean community as the best build for sheeps of any skill build, it features high enough hp, along with the ability hit decently, 2 sense is all you need to hit decently (not all the time) Your skill in synthesis and digging still leaves something to be desired, but that'll be fine once you get to higher levels as well. For more luck, you can always equip luck equipment. 1Power, 4Magic, 3Sense, 2Charm This build is more of a hybrid type, mixing decent hp with high hit chance for a deadly combination for both you and the enemies. You will be hitting most of the time, so there is little to worry about missing stuff. Unfortunately the trade off is that you will be getting hit most of the time and dying quite quick when you do. Fortunately, you have the weight limit to lug around potions to chug in a pinch, and you can make your own potions reliably. With the way monsters aggro, this might be the better build, the trade off is either hp or hit chance, take your pick between this one and 1423 if you want just a normal character 1Power, 4Magic, 4Sense, 1Charm A real powerhouse of a character, this is the proverbial mage, weak in stature, strong in the mind. You are guarenteed to hit anything your level, and even stuff beyond. You can carry around a lot of stuff and produce your own to boot. With high luck, growth synthesis often results in the higher half of the spectrum, allowing you to create for yourself items with high defense or high hp, to cover up what you are missing. The words of wisdom for any mage: "if you never get hit, having 1 hp is enough" this is especially true for this character, your chances of staying alive depends solely on you, the player's ability to not step into melee range of a monster. If you like a challenge with a very destructive future, this build may be better for you. Besides, you can spam pots like no tommorow...it'll just cost a lot. ================================================== ==== Mathematical Arguement between stat builds for those not interested, you can skip this section, although it does open some new ideas. Some mathematical skill required! Not for the mathematically faint-hearted!! After much research, it has become evident that a sheep needs 3 stats, Magic Attack, Luck, and HP/def/evade. Ntreev, being the sneaky little bastards that they are, have put these 3 stats under 3 different major stats, essentially forcing us to pick 2 over the other. The real question now is, which 2 do we pick, and which one do we sacrifice? Laying Each stat out side by side with their various formulas, we get: Matk, +1 / 4 levels, used as a multiplier in spell damage Luck, +1 / 4 levels, used as a % hit chance in spell damage HP, +30 / 1 level, a constant growth factor that keeps us a live. by applying points to these, we vary how fast they grow. Since we are stuck with 4 magic, we'll start with this one. We have a constant of 4 magic, this means every 4 levels, it will naturally increase by 1 point or .25matk/level The luck stat is variable, depending on what we assign to Sense. Since luck also increases by 1 point every 4 levels, a 3Sense character will have their luck naturally increase by 1 point every 5 1/3 levels, or a rate of .1875luck / character level. A 2Sense character will have their luck naturally increase by 1 point every 8 levels, or 0.125luck / character level. The HP stat is also variable, a 3Charm character will have their HP naturally increase by 30 points every 1 1/3 levels, or 22.5HP/level, while a 2Charm character will have a rate of 15HP/level So here's what we have so far: 4Magic -> .25matk/level 3Sense -> .1875luck/level, 2Sense -> .125luck/level 3Charm -> 22.5HP/level, 2Charm -> 15HP/level --------------- Now, remember that when you level up, you are granted 4 bonus points to place into a stat, although it takes 4 bonus points to raise a stat by 1 level, we'll break these points down so that each point increases a stat by a certain amount. *Every point placed in Matk -> +.0625matk *Every point placed in Luck -> +.0625luck *Every point placed in HP -> +7.5HP Alright, now look at what each stat DOES from the above list, together with what each point does, plus what we get per level! (basically everything together) Every Level: 4 Magic -> +.25 damage multiplier to spells/level, +.0625 per point spent 3 Sense -> +.1875% hit chance to spells/level, +.0625% per point spent 2 Sense -> +.125% hit chance to spells/level, +.0625% per point spent 3 Charm -> +22.5HP /level, +7.5HP per point spent 2 Charm -> +15HP/level, +7.5HP per point spent Now lets ask some questions, what is a damage multiplier? It increases your spells's damage by a certain amount, each +damage multiplier tranlates to a certain factor of the damage. What is a hit chance%? The ultimate chance you can hit an enemy is determined by base% + (your luck - their luck) so for every luck you get, you will get a bonus to your hit chance. What is HP? Well it keeps us alive, so it must play a role, without hp, the other two can't work. So what about all those bonus points we were looking at? This is how they fit into the scheme of things: lets take a look at 2 hypothetical characters at level 120, one with a 1423 build, and the other with a 1432 build. Here's some numbers: 1423 build, level 120 -> base matk = 120 levels (+30matk), base luck = 60 levels (+15luck), base HP = 90 levels (+2700hp) 1432 build, level 120 -> base matk = 120 levels (+30matk), base luck = 90 levels (+22.5luck), base HP = 60 levels (+1800hp) Now if you apply bonus points to things, we can have a variety of results; you can add points to either matk, luck, or HP, producing very different builds. First Note that a stat build can be extended to look like this, which produces numbers based on the stats instead of the major stats: 1423 -> 111|444|222|333. In this view, we can apply constant bonus points to stats every level and be able to denote them. For example, a 1423 build which applies 2matk, 1luck, and 1hp every level will look like: 111|464|223|433 Now, constantly applying bonus points, we see some very interesting results, first off, it is clear that the stats are all interdependant, raising one requires the sacrifice of something else. The HP graph shows "120 hp units" per 4 levels (30 hp per level), each hp unit is "1 HPu" and is equivalent to 120hp, this makes it even with the other graphs The 3 stats are best viewed on a 3-D graph correlating the 3 stats, but since that is not possible on a 2-D forum thread, the three axis will be taken one at a time, each edge of an axis represents the extremes of stat point distribution, the left side being 0 points to this stat, the right being 4 points. 1423 build at level 120 30--------37.5----------45--------52.5----------60Matk |__________|__________|__________|__________| 0-----------1------------2-----------3-----------4bonus points 15--------22.5----------30--------37.5----------45Luck (HPu in a 1432 build) |__________|__________|__________|__________| 0-----------1------------2-----------3-----------4bonus points 22.5-------30---------37.5----------45----------52.5HPu (Luck in a 1432 build) |__________|__________|__________|__________| 0-----------1------------2-----------3-----------4bonus points If you stare at these graphs long enough, something will suddenly hit you, at a specific character level, EVERY BUILD has the SAME number of distributive status points! At level 120, this number is 97.5 status points (add up the values for a 4 point combination), the formula is [# of status points = level * 0.8125] Its this interplay of bonus point distrubution that produces a wide variety of builds. Essentially this raises the question of where the bonus points go... Lets look closer at what the difference between a 111|474|223|333 build and a 111|484|222|333 build is. (+3matk/+1luck vs +4matk) Here's some more numbers: Level 12, 111474223333 -> 55.25Matk, 2.25luck Level 12, 111484222333 -> 56.00Matk, 1.50luck . 2.4% less matk, .75% more chance to hit, not bad Level 120, 111474223333 -> 102.5Matk, 22.5luck Level 120, 111484222333 -> 110.0Matk, 15.0luck . 7.8% less matk, 7.5% more chance to hit! nice even trade off Level 360, 111474223333 -> 207.5Matk, 67.5luck Level 360, 111484222333 -> 230.0Matk, 45.0luck . 9.8% less matk, 22.5% more chance to hit, that's almost a whole quarter! Essentially: if x = character level, then... lim x->inf. : MAtkDifference(x) = 12.5%!! per bonus point difference and LuckDifference(x) = (0.0625 * x)% per bonus point difference So the difference is lots more hit chance at the loss of 1/8 of your spell damage! For Arrow Rush, this means you just have to have one extra arrow hit (1/7 > 1/8) to cover that damage, and hit they will! Equipment of course plays a role in all this, so lets look at some hypothetical equipments. Searching the many sites for trickster, one realizes that more matk equipment exists than luck, and as level increases, matk equipment gets better at a rate faster than the luck equipment. A REAL level 200 wand provides 34 matk while giving only 11 luck, lets translate these numbers 34 Matk -> 136 levels! of Matk stat 11 luck -> 44 levels of luck stat woah! the difference is quite obvious! You are provided much more Matk from items than you are luck from items! Draw your own conclusions, I've done the math so you don't have to. End of Part two! |
