Third Job Introduction
Finally, your here! The long awaited 3rd job. You've learned the basics of a Thief, then you've mastered the throwing star as an Assassin, and now you're looked at as a pro. The Hermit, like assassins, are 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
- Has powerful ranged attacks, and is widely known to be the class which kill-steals the most.
- Has Shadow Partner, a skill which allows moves to be copied
- Has Avenger, a skill capable of hitting multiple enemies.
Cons
- Avenger does not curve; you must be on an even platform to hit monsters.
- Shadow Partner costs a Summoning Rock, which is very expensive and hard to find.
- Sticks to Lucky 7 most of the time, which is a 1st job skill.
- Most skills are for showing off, and are not of much use.
Stat Distribution
The stat distribution is the same as before, so there's no need to worry about this. Just keep your DEX at 2x your level, and everything else goes into LUK!
- LUK: +5 for three levels
- DEX: +5 for two levels
Or
- LUK: +3 on each level
- DEX: +2 on each level
Level 70: 110 DEX, 192 LUK
Level 75: 120 DEX, 207 LUK
Level 80: 130 DEX, 222 LUK
Level 90: 140 DEX, 237 LUK
Level 100: 150 DEX, 252 LUK
Level 110: 160 DEX, 267 LUK
Level 120: 170 DEX, 282 LUK

Places To Train
Below are some recommended places where you should train, and monsters of which you should train off.
- Levels 70-80: It is now the time for the Third Job advancement. Contrary to popular belief, Coolie Zombies are still the best exp for these levels. As Hermits gain 3 minute Shadow Partner, Forest of Golem party exp begins to rival Zombie exp.
- Levels 80-90: Zombies and Mix Golems are still the best exp until lv 82, where a new number of areas open up. Hermits can go to Death Teddies. In 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 only) are also a nice place to train.
- Levels from 90 onwards: Most Hermits tend to stay at their lv 80-90 training locations. As Hermits near lv 100, they can easily get into parties at Grim Phantom Watch. Thieves who wish or be or already are low dex will want to kill Zakum for the Zakum Helmet.
