FAQs

Q. What is an AP?

A. AP is an abbreviation for ‘ability point’. You can use them to increase the value of stats like strength (STR), dexterity (DEX), intelligence (INT), luck (LUK), health points (HP), and mana points (MP). You are awarded 5 ability points every time you level up. Most people do not spend their AP on the HP and MP as u will gain HP & MP after every level up (For more information, scroll down).

Q. What is an SP?

A. SP an abbreviation for "skill point". You can use these to increase the level of the skills. You will receive 1 SP when you got the job advancement at level 10. After this you will be rewarded 3 SP every time you level up.

Note: Example, if you are in your 2nd job adv. now, you should spend your SP in the 2nd job skil book rather than the 1st job (The same rule applies to the 3rd and 4th job).

Q. Is it smart to increase MaxHP and MaxMP with AP?

A. It is not smart to add AP to HP or MP because the increasment is negligible (especially in high levels), and LUK and DEX are more important.

Q. Why are dexterity (DEX) and luck (LUK) important for thieves?

A. Luck is very important because it increases their damage. The dexterity does not really help to increase your damage, but equipment has a value of dexterity you need to wear it. Just make sure you have just enough . No more, no less.

Q. Why aren't strength (STR) and intelligence (INT) important?

A. STR (Strength) and INT (Intelligence) is not required to wear thief equipment. Because of the low level of STR you will be weak at the first 15~20 levels.

Q. What are STR Bandits?

A. STR Bandits are using STR for better daggers, Because of the STR they have a more stable damage. Since this guide is only about claw thiefs, I won’t talk about STR bandits.
