Which should I choose, do ya think? I feel Cygnus Knights seem to be less geared towards min/maxing, and a bit more casual, so i was thinking of making one "regular" (no special AP allocation). I'm mostly concerned with fun, quick leveling. Thinking either Dawn Warrior or Night Walker, but i'm willing to entertain other ideas. I want my characters to have a variety of play experiences.. currently, i have a Lukless Cleric, and a Perma-Beginner. I want to have an Aran at some point too, Who has flashier skills? Who can I level up more quickly and enjoyably without following any funded or special program? Who would play more uniquelt given my other character classes?

I say Thunder Breaker or Night Walker my reasons? Night Walker is a good class to level and can deal a lot more damage due to the 6ap allocation until level 70 Thunder Breaker im not very good at explaining its high powering and the skills are flashy and nice so i rather play the Thunder Breaker. this is my opinion anyway :3 i voted for Thunder Break

I'd say thunder breaker. It's the only cyg char that has somewhat of use because it can easily make a nice si mule. Nightwalkers are basically watered down nls and would cost a lot to fund if you wanted to match up to other low dex/ dexless nws. Dawn warriors are pretty much heroes HOWEVER don't have rush, stance, or enough hp to fight the majority of higher lv bosses (they can't cwk or bf either making them pretty much failed heroes). Wind archers seem unique however, would only be a character sheerly for fun.

DW's have very flashy skills (soul driver and soul blade) they can be a bit boring at first because they only get soul, but they get fun once you start to get up into the 30's. The most enjoyable part of playing a DW IMO is soul rush. Darting around the field really fast and throwing out soulblade/power strike is awesome. and on top of that they dont cost too much if you're going for standard dex. so yeah...You should try it, its pretty fun :D

I'd have to say Night Walker because they level pretty fast once you get to a higher level. But if you don't plan on getting 70+ go dawn warrior, best 2nd job imo.

No dnt listen to these guys I've had heaps of Cygnus knights and they all suck my Aran hits as much as my lv 50 nw and he's just lv 38 + when my Aran gets combo smash I'll be hitting 6-9ks(combo smash lvl45 Aran skill) dude make an Aran or if not get an explorer Cygnus knights aren't as strong as arans or explorers either make a brawler, cleric, Aran or a bandit those are the best and strongest(Aran is the strongest of all classes and can hit 6-9ks with combo smash at lv 45 no other classes can hit that high at lvl45 ) cleric is not as strong but everyone wants a cleric in their boss runs or pqs becaus clerics can heal party members and itself clerics have one atk that's pretty good holy arrow and some better ones at 3rd and 4th job advancement

Personally a Blaze Wizard or a Night Walker wouldn't be very good if you went w/ the regular AP allocation but a Dawn Warrior, Thunder Breaker or Wind Archer I think would still be fine. Out of the three I would say the Thunder Breaker has Flashier skills and would be the most different in comparison to a Cleric or a Perma-Beginner. Leveling a Thunder Breaker I don't think is hard, you can go regular dex and still do decent damage and level quickly. You don't have to follow anything special but I would suggest looking at the Thunder breaker guide so you know what you're doing. Also you'll be using different equips than either a Perma-Beginner or a Cleric so try to get what is most cost efficient. Generally you'll need Str and Dex (well more Acc than Dex but some Dex is needed for equips) and 1 Att is around 5 Str.

thunder breakers are awesome. sharkwave = very flashy. mobility is not a problem since corkscrew keeps you moving forward quickly. invincibility frames are great. they also require the most skill in order to train efficiently, in my opinion.

Dude just cuz ur a thunder breaker you think it's good it's only good at lvl70+ Aran is good from lvl 1- lvl 200 arans rule that's the reason I made an Aran because they are the best race I made a mistake when arans 1st came out I didn't make one and I missed the chance of getting combo king medal(+3str and some other stuff) wich is really good so make an Aran
