Intro Because of the many threads on Basil Market asking which job is the best/which job I (they) should be; I decided to make this guide. In this guide, you will find information which should ultimately help you choose the class that you find the most fun and suitable for your playing style. I ask you to not copy this guide onto another website or thread claiming it as your own. If you would somebody else to see this guide, please link them to this website. Within the past day I have been working very hard to make this guide the best that it can be. I know it still has many flaws and is certainly not the best guide on Basil Market. A good guide certainly doesn�t happen overnight and I hope you would support me until it is completely finished. With that said, let�s get moving on to more important things. *NOTE* I can not link yet, as my account is not a month old. Once it is, I�ll make sure to post links leading to Youtube videos, and other guides on BM. Until then, please bare with me. Thanks For the people who have helped me in the process of writing this guide, I want to thank you very much. For display reasons, however, I�ll be removing your names out of the paragraphs and into a list here. These are the people who have helped me with this guide so far: Taleko Aznphoenix05 Hellishnoob2 Kevvl Masamunee BishopXGod Dragoniz Shortstuf Krinsom3 The Warrior Class The Warrior Class uses close ranged attacks (almost always) and high HP to desecrate its foes. The Warrior is a a job with little mobility, but greater damage and survivability. Warriors have the highest HP in the game, giving them a much greater chance of surviving at bosses than other classes. Also, Warriors are very flexible in their training methods and can either solo, party, or boss. Wks, however, do have a harder time finding a party. But thats for later. The Warrior Class as a whole does a good amount of damage and has a fun variety of skills. I Suggest the Warrior Class if I suggest the Warrior Class to you if you like to be, �all up in your mob,� want to see a decent amount of damage with little funding, love to have a variety of training methods, want to boss, and want have very high HP. I Do Not Suggest the Warrior Class if I do not suggest the Warrior Class to you if you only like long ranged attacks, like to be very mobile, or if you want massive mobbing attacks. These are the branches of the Warrior Class: Warrior>Spearman>Dragon Knight>Dark Knight Warrior>Page>White Knight>Paladin Warrior>Fighter>Crusader>Hero The Spearman Branch Spearmen are the second job advancement of one of the branches of the Warrior Class and use spears and polearms to attack their enemies. Although, before you can use these weapons you must go through the 20 levels of the Warrior Class. Some benefits of the Warrior Class are: early mobbing, high HP, and an early, slightly powerful, 1v1 attack. When you reach level 30, you can advance to your next job. The Spearman. The Spearman is the 2nd job advanc

Heroes have Brandish, a very powerful skill that can do well over 100k with proper funding." first thing brandish does like 50k x 2 at only very high lvls. its not as easy as you make out. also post this in the warrior section instead to get more detailed and correct information

Actually I would say Dits but all of the warrior classes are good. spearmen are more of a party grinder with HB and can be effectively paired up with a priest at Himes or something. Heros and palys are more soloers as they can do great damage with their own damage increasing buffs.

That's why it's in the General Section. Also, I didn't mean to make it seem easy, but I know many people who can do more than that^^^ with Brandish.

He just has the warrior section done and is waiting for some constructive criticism. So far, I think it's great. Keep it up!

You say hero can go EITHER 1h or 2h, paladin can go EITHER 1h ro 2h too so why you didn't mention it? Most paladin go 1h because of atk shield and 2h mace are slow so 1h is faster training(especially with that awesumcakes lvl 120 1h mace skull crusher, 115/4 based stats).

Thanks for the info, I'll make sure to add it in. Also, @NoLoveNoPain, I'll add in what you said and make sure you get the credit. Thank you all for the positive feedback. I'm doing the Mage section now and will continue to make the other sections as good as they can be. Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Yeah, I doubt Brandish could do 100k's that early until godly funded/high leveled.

Keep going and do the other classes, it'll partially stop the "What class should I be" threads.
