Should I give my Bandit Steal? Should it be maxed after Savage Blow? Should I replace some SP to use for Steal? Is there a Bandit skill build for after the explorers return patch? Nothing but questions here.

My bandit made 3rd job before the patch, and I went Endure. I gotta say I'm not missing Steal for any reason, though. It seemed useless before, still seems kinda lame now. 'Specially since I have BoT, which, according to general consensus, fully replaces steal.

I just put 1 point in steal cause it looked cool (it was a worthless skill back when I was a dit) Not sure what it does maxed, but from what I've heard maxed BoT is better.

I believe that when Steal is maxed, you can hit up to 4 monsters with 120% with a chance of stun. I didn't really care for Endure so I maxed Steal. I heard that from the revamp Steal gets 300% damage? But, I do agree with the people above me, Band of Thieves is best. It hits up to 250% summoning up to 5 ninjas. I think the revamp will give it 315% damage. Because it is a AOE move, it helps a lot at Typhons. Boomerang Step later, the best on flat area maps and adds invincibility.

BoT is a 6 hit attack, 5 thieves and your original attack (you probably knew this, but just clarifying in case anyone didnt)

[/quote] Steal won't ever be fully replaced, using BS-Steal-BS at higher lvls to not agrro the wrong monsters seems to be better then using Bot inbetween (steal and BS have roughtly the same range + hit the same amount of monsters)

Steal should be maxed over Endure (which is kinda useless). I have 1 endure myself, but I screwed over my 1st job/2nd job points years ago. I still live with it... In the future, steal would be win when you go ToT, you will find Pieces of time very often along with taunt. Super win. I'd max it if I were you.

If you get your CB to 80 before the revamp, go with max Endure and Booster. If you get your Bandit to 50 by the Revamp, then go max Steal. Personally I didn't max Steal because it wasn't a mobbing move before, but now that is, it's up to you to choose either a mobbing move or maxing Endure/Booster. Probably mobbing moves, but max Endure saves pot in the long long run.

wont you get automatic full sp resets after the big bang to reset all your skills anyway?

I got everything maxed but 1 point in steal, I like it so far... I can do some PyPQ now and then and like someone said above.. BS + steal + BS sounds good not to aggro wrong stuff
