Third Job Introduction
After learning the basics as a Thief, and mastering the throwing star as an Assassin, players achieve the esteemed label of Hermit. The Hermit, like assassins, is very fast and evasive. Hermits are very strong, and have plenty of support and attacking skills.
Job Advancement Procedure
Go to El Nath - Chief Residence and speak to Arec. After talking to Arec, head back to Victoria Island and talk to Dark Lord who is located in Kerning City. Next, find the Door of Dimension located at Monkey Swamp II and it'll bring you to "The Path of the Glittering Crystal". Walk until the end of the path and enter the portal to defeat Dark Lord's dark side to obtain the Black Charm. Return to Dark Lord and exchange the Black Charm for a Necklace of Strength. Return to El Nath after that and give the item to Arec. Head on to the Holy Ground at the Snowfield (Sharp Cliff II). One Dark Crystal is required to answer 5 questions to obtain the Necklace of Wisdom. Again, head back to Arec in El Nath and give him the Necklace of Wisdom. Congratulations, you're a Hermit!
Job Analysis
Pros
- Retains good ranged attacking.
- Has Shadow Partner, a skill that summons a "copy" of your character that mimics your attacks.
- Acquires Avenger, a mob skill similar to Iron Arrow.
- Haste and Flash Jump combine for great mobility.
- Have the skill Alchemist, which increases the effect and duration of potions.
- The skill meso up makes the hermit very rich.
Cons
- Avenger does not curve, so Hermits must be on an even platform to hit monsters.
- Shadow Partner requires the consumption of a Summoning Rock, which is very expensive and hard to find. However, they may be purchased from Alcaster for 5,000 mesos once all of his quests have been completed, which is cheaper than buying from other players or making them yourself.
- Their main attack skill for most encounters is Lucky Seven, which is a 1st job skill.
- Low survivability, comparable to Snipers and Rangers, because of generally low HP and no HP protection skills but have high avoidability.
Stat Distribution
The stat distribution is the same as before, so there's no need to worry about this. Just keep your DEX at your level +40, and everything else goes into LUK!
- LUK: +5 for eight levels
- DEX: +5 for two levels
Or
- LUK: +4 on each level
- DEX: +1 on each level
Level 70: 110 DEX, 260 LUK
Level 80: 120 DEX, 300 LUK
Level 90: 130 DEX, 340 LUK
Level 100: 140 DEX, 380 LUK
Level 110: 150 DEX, 420 LUK
Most people choose to cap their DEX somewhere between 80-110.
Hermit Skills

Icon | Name and Description | Max Level | Requirements |
Avenger: Uses MP to make an enormous throwing star for attack. The throwing star will go through an enemy, and attack the ones behind it, too.
|
30 | # | |
Alchemist: Passive. Increases the effect of the recovery-based items like potions and others, and lengthen time for the effect, if the item is based on such. However, items such as Elixir and others that base the recovery in % do not apply in this skill.
|
20 | # | |
Flash Jump: While in the air after a jump, use this skill + the arrow for a second jump. The higher the skill level, the farther the distance for the jump.

Meso Up: For a certain amount of time, everyone in the party can make the enemies drop more mesos than usual with this skill.
|

Places To Train
Below are some recommended places where you should train, and monsters of which you should train off.
- Levels 70-80: Congratulations on your Third Job advancement! Coolie Zombies still give the best exp for these levels. As Hermits gain 3 minute Shadow Partner, The Forest of Golem party exp begins to rival Zombie exp. You could also train at Voodoo, as they give 335 exp and have good spawn but no etc. If you have a warrior elixir, Steely throwing stars, and 2 Sp, train on Gryphon, as you can kill them in 4 hits. The pirate party quest is available for levels 55 through 101 and has decent exp but is time consuming, also providing a good early helmet for "Dexless' sins. Windraiders give 800exp per kill and with family buff 2x exp, you can get 1600exp per kill. The are at the map Crimsonwood Mountain: Lower Accent. Also you can sell in windraider badges for good loot.
- Levels 80-90: Zombies and Mix Golems are still provide the best exp until lvl 82, when a new number of areas open up. Hermits can go to Death Teddies. In the mid-late 80s, Hermits can train on Spirit Vikings (Ilbis ftw) or Squids at Aqua Road. Parties at Master Death Teddys also yield good exp. Bain parties in Jipang (MSEA & Maple Global only) are also a nice place to train.
- Levels from 90 onwards: Most Hermits tend to stay at their lvl 80-90 training locations. As Hermits near lvl 100, they can easily get into parties at Grim Phantom Watch. Thieves who wish to be or already are low dex will want to kill Zakum for the Zakum Helmet.
If at all possible, do it well. Thanks!
