| Edit- For the lazy people : a synopsis Sell fame for pot money, have 3 accounts, 1 an archer to do your quests, rely heavily on maple weapons, buy a zhelm at lvl 65, end with 119 acc, have above average damage. (not godly damage but certainly above average) Well my good buddy Max (iJoonz) recently wrote a dexless warrior guide that requires zero funding. I must say I disagree with his guide because there are mistakes but it is possible. I must admit I dont have determination of steel to make a high leveled, unfunded dexless warrior and havent quite made it past level 65 yet (boohoo) AND I dO have a main but I specifically chose not to provide additional funding, leeching, guildie-bonuses, or any bonuses to my Dexless spearman. I was NOT able to completely fund a dexless warrior on 1 account alone but I did fund one with 3 clean unfunded accounts. Create 3 accounts, 1 main. Level your 1 mules to level 15 and move them to ludi. The purpose of this is to target the MPQ'ers who have large sums of mesos and sell fame to them for funding. Personally I dont think selling fame for 50k constantly is realistic BUT there is the occasional fame-desperate, overfunded MPQer who will pay 100k or so for fame. I averaged around 30k per fame. The success of your fame selling is entirely based on your determination and how good of a salesman you are. NEVER set a base price for your fame. Tell the MPQ'er to offer, then increase his offer by 20k. This 20k is NOT a big deal for the MPQer who makes 20k in maybe 60 seconds but it IS a big deal for you who has started with zero mesos. The fame you sell probably wont fund your dexless fighter, but it WILL cover your pot expenses. Why do you have 2 Mains? I needed to use a guide account to perform things that my dexless warrior could not do such as quests. I made my 2nd main account an archer simply for good acc, and inexpensive damage. Level 1-20- Reasonably easy, achieve your job at level 10, grind at pigs at the newly edited Henesys Hunting Gound 2. Max Maximum HP first, this is important. Your equips should be whatever the game provided you with when you started. IF you get fortunate enough to get the wooden hammar or wooden sword drop, use that instead, but damage isnt a concern at this level. You wont need MP pots just yet because you're only fighting pigs, and you should be maxing Max hp so you dont have any active attack skills anyway. Getting to level 20 might take you 2 days, (or at least it took me 2 days [4 hours total]). If you've sold your fame properly you should have around 80k minus 30k in HP pots so 50k leftover. If you're spending over 30k on pots, you have a problem. Training tips- Contrary to popular belief, partying allows you to level faster. its HOW you party that makes you slower. Do NOT party a level 189 Arch Mage, believe it or not Blizzard doesnt give you too much exp. Party people around your level. DO NOT bunch together and "concentrate your fire". Have the strongest party member at the top of |

| I started mine with 6 dex 0 fundings and nothing at all. Now I have an overpowered DrK with everything I need, 4 base dex, enough accuracy equips, and what not. I didn't need to sell my fame for 50k or something... I just whacked things to death, picked the stuff up, and used the money to get accuracy. Simple, but effective. |

| Did you just say max HB before mastery for spearman? And seriously, for CPQ just recruit high levels and assume they will let you leech and loot the coins? And this guide had you get completely stuck trying to get even close to 130 acc? And seriously, MPQ? Also, that's a ton of pot burn. And try to get a zhelm for 20-30mil? Great way to be hacked right there. Sorry, but even if you made this look nice, it just plain sucks. |

I agree, but I got my Zhelm for 25m (had to add 5m for BP, ending up in 30) from Impetuous, they didn't touch a single thing on my Account. |
