Back in January, I made a list of the 200+ feeds I was following. Time to update it. Reading all of the 200+ feeds took me too much time and I could not keep up with the reading every day, so I am now down to 99 feeds. I am open to any suggestion :-)
EDIT: This is a pre-RENEWAL build, but it might still be worth it in Renewal :-)
The name of this blog, Bowling Bash, comes from the eponymous Ragnarök Online Knight skill. Here is how to build a BB Knight (or LK). I am not an expert BB LK, but I used to play it a lot in WoE (guild versus guild events) and in small PvM parties. For PvM or leveling, the build is either STR(+DEX)+Spear Stab (you will need potions or a Priest) or AGI+Quicken (little DEX or Heal needed). To my mind, the trickiest and most interesting builds are those for WoE. Below are a few build possibilities; I suggest you adjust and try them so that you find the one that fits your needs perfectly.
| STR | buffed, try to reach a 10 threshold (eg 84+26, 99+31 or 55+105) |
|---|---|
| VIT | buffed, try to get 100 (eg 82+18 or 92+8) to gain Stun and Silence immunity |
| DEX | aim for an even number (eg 78+32) to get HP bonus; the more, the higher chance to hit your enemy |
| AGI | what is left; the more, the faster you can launch BB |
| INT&LUK | 1 |
Below are several build examples. They are just build styles/aspects, as you will have to adapt them to your gear, whether you want to use food buffs, etc. In parentheses are the bonus points for Lord Knight job level 70.
| type | STR (+15) | AGI (+8) | VIT (+8) | DEX (+9) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| High DEX, low STR, needs 2 Megingjard | 35 | 40 | 82 | 97 |
| 6x STR, likely to use a Megingjard | 67 | 41 | 85 | 75 |
| High STR, could avoid using any Megingjard | 97 | 12 | 83 | 56 |
| Not using any VIT food | 78 | 31 | 92 | 61 |
