Introduction
BanditSin/Sindit is an unofficial branch of Thief (rogue) which players decided to make. It combines aspects of Assassins and Bandits. Assassins can train quickly thanks to their claws and the speed with which they throw their stars, and have the party skill Haste. Bandits have the ability to do massive amounts of damage thanks to their Savage Blow technique. The aim of a Sindit build is to combine the best traits of these two Thief builds. This is done by getting some skills for both claws/stars and Daggers in the first job, and then getting even more skills to improve dagger damage in the second job by choosing the path of the Bandit.
Suggestion
I suggest you use a Claw from level 10~40. Then start going close ranged. It is very hard to train a Bandit from level 1~40 but using a claw it is easy. Please read the entire guide. Thanks.
Creating a Character; Dice Roll
When you create a new character, you want it to roll something like this:
STR: 4/5 (Thieves do not need this unless you are going to be a STR bandit which I don't provide a guide to)
DEX: X (anything rolled here is fine )
INT: 4/5 (Thieves do not need this so it is USELESS)
LUK: X (anything rolled here is fine)
Stat Distribution
First off, we should talk about your stat distribution. Your DEX should be at the least 25, or else you can't become a Thief at level 10.
- STR-Not needed for all Thieves.
- DEX-DEX adds to your Accuracy, so DEX isn't needed as much as LUK. The only main reason for DEX is for your equips and Accuracy. DEX should be twice your Level.
- INT-INT is USELESS for thieves, as it adds to Magic Attack and MP.
- LUK-LUK determines the strength of a Thief. LUK is the basis for a Thief's attack.
- HP/MP- These are the worst stats to add into. You get enough HP and MP on your own without pumping into these, and any points pumped, would be a waste.
In simpler terms each level you should do something like this:
Do The Formula Above until you get to level 30. Then follow the Bandit Guide. I also have it at the bottom of the page.
