Guide to a Non-Funded Claw Rogue

NOTE: This article/guide is a stub. Please help the MapleWiki by expanding this article.

This guide is for people who's first character will be an assassin. It will help with making money and training fast.

Starting Off

Beginning Stats and Equipment

When you create your character your stats will be there and below it is a dice. You can roll it as much times as need, so roll until you have 4 STR and 4 INT. You can have 5 in one of those, but I caution you that it may be the difference of maybe 50 damage later on. Your LUK and DEX can be anything as long as it is not 4. The best top armor is the white undershirt. It provides 1 more defense. For a weapon, use the wooden club. The damage is more unstable than a sword, but can hit one more damage than a sword. The axe just sucks. When you are hitting so low, it doesn't matter.

Your stats should be put into DEX until it is at 25, and then the rest into LUK. Why DEX? Because it increases your damage (very slightly ><), and because you need 25 DEX to change into a rogue. Don't put any into STR to hit higher or HP to increase your health; many beginners do this and have to restart their characters. Also, dont put and into INT or MP, although I don't see why you would in the first place.

Stats

Stats should be put in like this, considering you rolled a 4/4 (INT/STR),

Level 5: 25 DEX, 12 LUK
Level 10: 25 DEX, 37 LUK
Level 15: 35 DEX, 52 LUK

From Victoria:

Once you're a rogue,do this build:

Level 11:+5 Luk
Level 12:+5 Luk
Level 13:+5 Luk
Level 14:+5 Dex
Level 15:+5 Dex

Continue this build for every 5 levels assuming if your unfunded/dexless theif.

Skill Build

Follow this skill build if you are unfunded:

Level 10:+1 Nimble Body
Level 11:+2 Nimble Body, +1 Keen Eyes
Continued later...

Training

Monsters you should train on before you change classes are green Snails, Blue Snails, and Shrooms. Nothing else is worth killing, except a few Orange Mushrooms for the ten Orange Mushroom caps you need for Biggs' quest, which gives either a Razor or a Fruits Knife. However, Orange Mushrooms may be too tough for you to take on.

Equipment

When you become a Claw Rogue, you obviously use claws. At Kerning City Self-Defense Store, buy a Garnier. Do not buy any other claws until level 25 when you should upgrade your Garnier to a Meba, which should last you until level 40+. By level 40+ you should be getting a lot more money.

With regards to armor, I would suggest laying off the theif armor until level 20. At level 20 you can start to buy the armor sets that you need.
