This is a little different than most other elf guide, but this one will prive if you have what it takes to be good without constant party or help =) please be patient and read it all.

*weapons-im not very fond of crossbows (actually i hate them)so, i whould use bows. in the begging you have a short bow ,then use ,bow,elven bow,battle bow, tiger bow, and siver dont go beyond that(for a while)

*Armor-vine,wind,and spirit stop at spirit dont go to guardian it is usless unles you wana loook cool =P.

Ok now for the guide itself =)))))

level 1-10 (like i said there is no ened for party)

In the begining train on goblins and chain scorpions train to wear full +0 full vine and keep looking for +3 vine, plain will do for now. keep traiing in noria until level 10. once your wearing full vine +3 use an elven bow (always with skill) now move on to lorencia (non to energy)

level 10-15

now that your in lorencia train on elite bull fighters,liches, and skelys is you can. keep your eyes open for +3+x vine items until level 15. try using a battle bow +0+skill (non to energy)

level 15-30

Ok now go to davias look for a party (when I said no party I didnt mean davias lol)now, party all the way to level 30 in between these levels you should keep your eyes open for +x+x wind items, which will come in useful at the elite yetis =). Now start getting to +0+skill tiger bow which is very good at this point (non into energy) by the end of davias lvl 30 try wearing full +0/1+12 wind (if you cant wear that yet wear +4+x vine ) oh and dont worry this is were the fun begins =))

level 30-40

ok, now go to dungeon look for low level noobs like about level 20, and go to larvas with you being the highest level in party keep training agillity and strength /I suggest wearing angels but only when your at ghosts/ when your at level 35 start upgrading your armor to full +3+8 wind or even +3+12 if you can also try getting a better tiger bow for example +1+4+skill "never forget the skill", by now you should have about 170-185 defence. Now start wearing an angel and head to ghosts dont forget to keep a good supply of potions (healing) at your finger tips (you only need mana for multi shooting) once your a level 40 head to dungeon 2.

level 40-50

Now head for dungeon 2, stay in the begining at skelly archers (use angel) train on those until you are level 45 by that level you should get +2/3+12+luck spirit you will need the luck for future =) also trying getting a better bow like +2+8+skill tiger bow (now this part is up to you stay in dungeon 2 or go back to davias and party lvl 15 noobs and train there till level 50) your level 50 kit should be +3+12+luck full spirit / +2+12+skill tiger bow, cool aint it *cough* *cough* *hack* cough* lol just kidding...anyway

level 50-60

now go to dungeon 2 and go to elite skellys train there till level 55 by level 55 is your most important level, because this is the set youll be wearing for a loooong time, ok get full +5+12 spirit and a +1+skill silver bow, this is what you should be wearing for a while now.Now at level 55 start raising energy all the way till bali!!! YEY which is very good i might add.

level 60-80

Now all you gotta worry about is buying yourself orbs which will cost about this...
goblin- 5k
healing- 660 zen i think (you can buy in noria store)
golem orb- rare but i think goes for 100k
def orb- 20k
damage rob- 50k
assasin- 150k-200k
yeti orb- 400k
dark knight orb- 1-2c cheaper now
bali orb- well...lets just say u can get one for 2c-3c))

so all together this should be worth around 8c estimate. Now from lvl 60-80 go train in d3 with people kinda good to find an e-elf until you have a decent buff (all into energy)

LEVEL 80-100!!!!!

Ok people now go to LT this should be the best part , when your level 80 you should have a decent buff (i like to come with a friend because people tend to take all your good drops lol) =) now at level 94 you should be able to yes bali!!! unless you were ****ed enough to put into vitality lol =P now from level 94-100 put 3 levels into strengh and 3 into agility.

level 100+++++++++++++++++++++++++++(well u get the idea)

Well now that you can you use bali keep raising your agility till CNB +0+skill+luck keep putting some into strengh also. Now start slowly blessing your spirt to +6+12 and then souling it to +7+12 once your wearing that and the CNB eventually raise your energy to soldier and better buff. This guide is long and is very hard to complete but if you finish it, itll all be worth while =).

Now to conclude this guide, this is what you should be wearing:

+7+12+luck full spirit
+0+skill+luck CNB (keep blessing it )
(wear satans as well)
eventually get exc. pendants and rings.

this should all be worth without rings and pendants .....24bless

Later on at lvl 150 turn into muse elf

hope you enjoyed this guide as i wrote it half asleep at school while my teacher was yacking about how i was failing and....****...
well thanks hope you use it lol....I hate school =P

From:/maya player/elf/name:devillline/server 1,3,15/(*feel free to pm at any time for help) lol =) bi bi now.

*also like to add for some people if in the end you are interested and have the money you can also get full +7+12 guardian which gives 34 more defenec in all: idead by Xiaoshin. thanks

What if i stopped at 210 energy for vali , and enough str for guardian armour +7+12 and CNB , and continue adding on agility all the way ? Would it be better than the current build which add energy all the way ?

yes that is a pretty good idea but if you continue to add to energy youll still recive more defence from the buff. i whould personally stick with mine but you got something going there. =)

in some cases, people dont like adding energy to 210 then use +7+12 guardian with rest agility, because by the time you get to higher lvls, your buff becomes useless... (well in my opinion, as whats 210 vs like 500 + energy off an ee - saying this as soloing gets boring for me quite fast ) however, i've seen some elves in +9+12 guardian sets .. with +7+skill CNB soloing lt8 areas and im guessing they've got about 210 energy, hehe. So it's good for the healing, but buff wont do much.

On the other hand... the energy DOES help, hehe

This is another one of those eternal debates where nobody is really wrong, it all depends on your style of play. Some will reccomend that you just put enough energy to get your Vali or enough for Soldier when it somes out (legally) and put the rest into Strength and Agility (just enough Str to use the armor you want and the rest in Agility).

The other route is to put just enough into Str and Agi to use the equipment you want to use and put the rest into Energy. Either way, you really can't go wrong if you want to go the hybrid way.

As for the Bow or Crossbow debate, the strongent weapons in the game are the Crossbows and they have a faster rate too. Compare for yourself:

But, my one piece of info that nobody else will tell you is this: Everyone has an opinion but it's up to you to do the research and decide which way is best for your playing style. Each persons opinion is valid as long as they back it up with FACTS not opinions.

your right everyones appinion is right but i just thouht that this guide might lead the person in the right direction you know, but its alwas up to the player on how to go on from there.

*lol*

for yr info,soldier orb is actually a bug,or a glitch

woot**
a very nice guide for an elf startin out... opnions and facts...woot woot**

yea thanks, this guide is pretty detailed


o btw how is soldier bugged?

it has less life than bali but it does more damage.

why izzit that crossbows are better than bow ? Serpent Crossbow is speed 40 , silver bow is also speed 40 and the silver bow has more dmg , CNB is speed 35 , but it's attack is much much more than serpent crossbow ...

i know its not better but some people think it is lol *cough* cough*

Alright people, here's the deal. You guys seem to be playing your characters and setting them up for the items that are in the game now. What you should be doing is setting them up for when the game is complete and all the items a
