When does a Fox really get rolling?

MagicMist · 29 Mar 2008

I just made a Fox yesterday (Pure DA, 1144) and it was pure HELL getting through the first 20 levels. Right now I am Lv 26 and things are getting better, but now MP is becoming a problem (I have some money so it's not that big of a problem, just annoying).

I was wondering, when does a Fox really get rolling? 2nd job?

When you have enough MP to cast a mastered Sixth Sense. Things should go up from there. Remember to get Shiruken Mastery and Lucky Seven. Second job I suggest getting Aura of Luck and Landmine. You should be fine until level 180, that's when it get hell to level.

you are new? its hell at first but at later parts when you can OHKO monsters, it will be fun then...

when you get sixth sense, shuriken master, stone strike, lucky seven, MAYBE aura & precise pitch mastered.

Basically your good when you can do this to monsters:

SM + SS = Death
Or if you have myshop
SM = Dead
SS = Dead

For me personally, when I started getting more frequent critical hits (which i needed to shave off the last bit of hp monsters had). But when I reached 3rd job EE + Landmine = Epic Win.

To be honest, Foxes are really weak in their 1st and 2nd jobs compared to other classes... Your 1st job skills, Stone Strike and Shuriken Master, will remain your best attack skills for a very long time, while everyone else picks up new 2nd job skills to use.

It won't really get going until 3rd job, when you either go Thief Master (Pure) or Hunter Lord (Hybrid); though, with your Pure DA build, you should be going Thief Master. With Thief Master and Pure DA, you'll really look forward to Explosives Expert.

Edit: Your accuracy will be terrible in PvP with your Landmine and Explosives Expert, so don't expect too much with a 1 in Power. I hope your plans aren't for PvP. ;x

If your hitrate is low against mobs, you should pick up Gun Booster and master it for an extra 20 AC to make up for your 1 in Power, but be prepared to spend at least 25 TM on it, picking up basic gun skills.
