Updated this stalker guide. :) I am maining stalker at the moment, so please bear with me. I will be able to create a guide much like my biochem guide once I tested out everything in my head. :p

Why are you asking for a skill build? I mean, we get 255 job levels, you can get every skill there is for bio.

There are about 3 Bios(not including me) that I consider good, one of them is better than me on hybrid since she taught me hybrid(Airi). Most literally just go Acid Demo and Bolts, not even switching gears, using strip cards, using stormy knight card, etc. I mean, sure you can go full int bio(my guide was originally for full int anyway) but at least know how to be not screwed by gtb+ devs.

Yeah, they nerfed those cards on prof, your alternative is to use uber poporing card(from for_fild06) which gives 5% matk and goes on boots. On the weapon however, no card increases matk for profs now on weapons, so I will just go stave stuff or strip. Well hey, if you can get yourself a prof cape and the ingredients to make ring, i'll be happy to raid for you.

Drae(Brian, or Shadi in the forums) and Gurkak. That's it.

^ around 4 is super rare but some of them are legit. If it was constant 4 AVs, then something is wrong.

Acid bomb barely hit 2k on regular reducts(gr +raydrics). They became prominent now because of Urds which makes them able to do bolts when AD sucked. And they are still pretty easy to counter, a pneuma acc, noxious cards or even gr+rsx+gtb screws them up. And yeah, we do not have pneuma, probably someone just using errende ebecee card. And compared to 2 years ago where bios were stuck as fcpers, I like the way they are now. Bio HP ain't that huge actually, most bios I fight play around the 200k-240k hp since they went ultra high INT. They gain more HP when they know when to switch shoes, seeing FBH doesn't affect AD damage in anyway. Every class got buffed due to the Rings, and bio is no exception. They only have heavens drive if they had ring anyway. Although I do see your point that there are tons of bios around. I swear about 7 months ago only me, Enrique(Rusty Trombone) and Airi uses the class. It's just that Bio is easy to gear up if you had an Int class before, seeing as they share almost the same equips besides the weapon. A little part of me regret making the guide for them actually :p.

I always have effects off on Biochemist, Stalker, Gunslinger, SinX, Paladin, Wizard, Prof, Soul Linker, Super Novice, and LK. Sadly, I cannot do that on clown at the moment. It would really help a lot of players.

Yeah, the main reason was the horrible spam of AV, if it can be chained to about 4x without doing any form of cancel(cloak, attention concentrate), it would be better. although it would help the class if they can turn off effects when playing .

This is not about a nerf/buff on the skill. In fact, this wouldn't actually affect the skill at all. My suggestion is to have an indication of what tarot effect you casted. At the moment, you need to have your effects on at all times to know what tarot card you have done, this is disadvantageous in certain maps where there are tons of people pvping(WoE,BR,GvG) and to players who do not have a decent machine(I know almost everyone is at least using a dual core pc/laptop with a decent gpu but having effects off helps a lot). My suggestion is that when you cast a tarot, it will be posted on your chat window which card is it(Priest, Death, Chariot etc). Pretty much like the message "Skill has Failed" or the message you receive when you try to strip someone that has FCP. The message should only show up on your chat window(not other players). If that isn't possible, at least make the clown/gypsy scream the card name, instead of the clown/gypsy saying the "Tarot Card of Fate" everytime the skill was successful. I been trying to use every class that I rarely see around and been thinking of ways to actually make players use them. I saw this as a disadvantage to Clowns/Gypsy so I thought of fixing it. What do you guys think?

^ You forgot the icewall+ jupitel thunder of wiz. Would have been able to put any player stuck on one cell if I wanted to.

Hell, I can live on most asuras using gr tao and 2x skolls. I don't switch cloaks besides to noxious when getting ganged. I sometimes switch out my fbh shoes for something that gives me more hp. I find it hard to believe that you die using 1x skoll 1x ray and gr. Unless your HP was crap, but then again you said you are using LK so I seriously find that weird.

I remember the name, what happened to your old forum account O_O.

That's why I approve either way, be it they boost the stave damage on the highness or create another weapon, but as I said, the voluspa for wizard should cater for wizard class and not be the exact copy of the prof voluspa. And you will have 2-3 weapons as a serious magic class but not because of Kingring because that card increases so little that you would have been better of with strip cards on the weapon. Mostly the weapon will be incant/non-thana stave setup, thana stave setup and probably strip setup. Personally, I do not like the effects of the wizard higness myself, but that's another story. :p

Money/ Token making for newbies, I only see Seed farming the most viable and the speed potions farming. Id say farm tons of zeny first using your HW looting Stone of Sages in tha_t10 then going on to seed farming once you have a decent amount(going to the seed room costs zeny)

So you are suggesting that the damage will still miss but the flinch and pushback of some magic skills work? I'm not sure but I can probably abuse this on wizard a lot. So I will have to say no..

Alright. I am updating my portfolio as a web developer. Since I am still considered a newbie in Ruby on Rails(my choice of framework), I decided to create a web app to actually force myself to learn more. The web application I am trying to create is something of a blogging platform. I already have the simple stuff (home page/landing page, about, contact, creating an account, confirming an account thru email, sign in, sign out). I'm in the middle of creating and designing how creating posts will look like. Now, to people who uses blogging platforms like Tumblr and the likes, what are the things you are looking for in a blogging platform? I need ideas. It doesn't matter if it is a little bit hard, that will force me to create something new. The only thing at the moment that I am doing is integrating Facebook and Twitter on it, as well as optimizing it for mobile use(smartphones and tablets). Now those two aren't really hard but that gives you guys an idea. So what do you think a blogging platform needs? These are the ones that I already plan on adding. 1. Follow/Following, kinda like twitter/tumblr where you have a feed and it shows posts of the ones you followed. 2. Email notifications when someone follows/unfollow you(kinda like twitter, but you can opt out of the notifications in the settings) I already created a Twitter Clone of sort, so anything that Twitter does, I can migrate it to this one. Thanks to the people who will suggest, it would help me a lot.

kamaitachi, lightning spear of ice or dragon fire formation. Most people use this ones. OR if you can get Helm of darkness/mask of angel, that gives you lvl 10 cold bolt so you are free to copy another skill.

^ actually, either way, which ever they approve, will do. You just have to switch weapons. Although I do see a small problem with that, the highness gives deluge/volcano, which can help stave damage when you are using the corresponding converter. If ever we do create a voluspa type weapon for wizard, it is not to be exactly as prof voluspa, we have to make it cater to the wizard class.

@Shadi I was kinda hoping that you reply to the thread since you are the best wizard I have seen around and knows more than I do regarding Wizard. Wizard HP is so crappy even with full gears. If you go full damage like Shadi said, the HP will be so low(since you will be using a different helm, probably Magic Eyes to get better damage, I can't be sure as I am using Loli hat for woe and I kinda forgot what Magic Eyes does) and not even energy coat can save you. Oh and I forgot how SN can outdamage wizards and still get huge hp. And yep, the delay on napalm vulcan is a little off putting. sadly Playing and dying a lot on wizard actually made me realize one thing on fighting wizards: you don't really switch armors against them. That's when the idea of buffing up napalm vulcan came to me :p I seriously wanted Wizards to be put back on the map. The class is the most fun magic class imo, I hate how we pushed the class to become farmers only.

Added a few more suggestions. I will update it when I see more of the stuff lacking for wizard since I been using it for a while now.

Because few bios know what to do in WoE. 90% of them only know how to spam AD and bolts, which is not that helpful in WoE at the moment.
