Recommended Starting Weapons[]

Anything not listed here can still be a consideration for other uses. Such as increasing your damage instead.

Knight[]

End game Knight objective is to be very tanky, and can hold aggro. At the start to mid-game you will want to still be able to deal damage, but you should ultimately leave that to Thief, Black Mage, and Hunter.

High Priority[]

Recommended Reason
5SwordW4 Gives HP+ Buff that increases your total HP by 50% for 3 minutes. You can stack this effect. Some top players have even achieved 90k HP with a lot of these.

Priority[]

Recommended Reason
5SwordF2 Gives Regen II allowing auto healing over time. Combo's well with Special Abilities that requires buffs.
5SwordF5 Aggro sword that does not require hitting the correct element to generate more hate. This sword will allow you to start getting into the role of tanking regardless of target's element, but your DPS will take a dip when hitting anything other than Wind. The Special Ability removes the rest of your party's hate by half.
5SwordF45SwordE35SwordN45SwordW2 Aggro swords much like above, but does not function unless you're hitting the correct element. These are better at stealing the immediate hate from your party if the element is correct with the Special Ability.
5SwordN5File:5SwordF6.png The main draw from these two swords is the buff Cover which transfers portion of the damage your allies takes to you. The fire sword has the buff Phalanx as well, which lets your allies sit at the rear row, giving you a boost to your damage reduction.

Black Mage[]

End game Black Mage objective is to be very fast at burst damage. A lot of their 5* gears helps increases their BP gain, which lets you fire off more Special Ability than other jobs.

High Priority[]

Almost every 5* weapons are welcomed.

Recommended Reason
5RodW5 This Rod gives the buff Satisfaction II, which increases your Critical Rate so high, that most of your attacks are Critical Hits! Chain this buff with your attack skills and burst down enemies.

Priority[]

Not Recommended Reason
5RodE25RodF25RodN15RodN25RodW1 Type advantage weapons. You should avoid starting out with these. While they do give bonuses against two Type of targets, you still have to deal with the elemental mechanic. You will eventually need them, depending on the events.

White Mage[]

End Game White Mage objective is to be heavy healer and buffer. You will need to get at least three 5* healing books, and a resurrection book on high difficulty dungeons like Abyss Hall for their top floors. Fortunately most of your healing books comes with buffs. You still can deal enough damage to one-shot enhancement dungeon monsters, and deal respectable damage to help your allies make things a bit faster.

High Priority[]

Recommended Reason
5BookN2 A heal book with a heal special ability, and resurrects unconscious allies for 10% of their HP. This is the only book that resurrects without using your HP. The problem is you will need to heal your allies quickly (They resurrect after this book's heal) or they will die just as easily if the boss is an AOE-savvy one. The downside is the longer than average cooldown, but the upside is that you can use this to heal otherwise.
5BookW4 A heal book with a resurrection special ability. The special ability resurrects unconscious allies for 80% of their HP, but taking 80% of your HP away. This gives the rest of your team an easier time to recuperate, but may put you in danger if timed badly. The cooldown on this is very fast.
5BookW2 A heal book with a heal special ability. The neat thing about the special ability is that it's the only book that can heal for 2 rows, the row in front of you and your row. This gives your allies more leeway to move around while still receiving the heal and fighting in the front lines without endangering you with AOE attacks (Unless the boss ignores the aggro rule for it).
5BookF5 A heal book with a heal special ability. This book's normal ability and special ability both heals and removes debuff. Late game, debuff effects are very visible at ailing you. Removing damage increasing debuff will save you and your party a lot.
5WhmBodyE15WhmBodyF15WhmBodyN15WhmBodyW1 Although not Weapons, these Body gears are crucial to playing White Mage effectively. When you receive damage, Mind buff may activate on you. This will increase your healing a lot, allowing Normal Ability healing viable to sustain painful fights while saving skills for greater needs.

Priority[]

Recommended Reason
5BookE35BookF45BookN45BookW3 These books all have healing special abilities. They all come with their own set of buffs. They increase P.ATK/P.DEF/M.ATK/M.DEF for your allies, as well as giving Brave and Default which increases total damage given and reduces total damage taken.
File:5BookF6.png This book has a heal special with the buff Haste II. It removes 30s to current and max cooldowns to anyone that receives it.
4BookW3 In the event that you didn't get the Grimoire of World Tree, this 4* Book (Common to get from Gacha) can also resurrect unconscious allies for 10% of their HP, while taking 50% HP from you. Unlike the Grimoire of Eriru's Concealment, the cooldown is a lot faster.

Thief[]

End Game Thief objective is to be the fastest DPS. A lot of weapons and armors for them is designed to allow you to auto attack very fast and strong. The gimmick behind some of them depends on your HP%, granting you buff to deal even more damage or increases your survival.

High Priority[]

Almost every 5* weapons are welcomed.

Recommended Reason
5TwinSwordsN5 This weapon turns any Thief into a different version of a tank. Mischievous buff increases your Dodge rate so high, that even end game bosses will miss you over 95% of the times, even if you sat in AOE!

Priority[]

Recommended Reason
File:5TwinSwordsF6.png This weapon has the buff Shadow II, which is a support buff which can be given to allies as well. This will double the amount of auto attacks to whoever receives the buff. The power of the extra attacks isn't 100%, but it's pretty high to warrant to get to improve team DPS.
Not Recommended Reason
5TwinSwordsE15TwinSwordsF15TwinSwordsF25TwinSwordsN25TwinSwordsW1 Type advantage weapons. You should avoid starting out with these. While they do give bonuses against two Type of targets, you still have to deal with the elemental mechanic. You will eventually need them, depending on the events.

Hunter[]

End Game Hunter objective is to DPS and chronically debuff your targets. They specializes in Poison among them as well which deals an absurd amount of damage and all stacks! It will deal heavy damage to them overtime, so all you gotta worry about is keeping your team alive and get the boss killed faster while reducing their P.ATK/P.DEF/M.ATK/M.DEF.

High Priority[]

Recommended Reason
5BowN1 A bow with a debuff special. Can poison (at 100% of your HP) with it's normal ability. The best part about this bow is that it reduces target's P.ATK and P.DEF unconditionally, unlike the 4* bows. There is a bigger ratio of physical bosses and monster than magical.
5BowW3 A bow with a debuff special. Can poison (at 20% chance) with it's normal ability. The good part about this bow is that it reduces target's M.ATK and M.DEF unconditionally, unlike the 4* bows. The problem is that there's a bigger ratio of physical bosses and monster than magical, but will be useful to have when more magic based bosses rolls in.
5BowF5 A bow with a neat special ability. Can poison (at 50% chance when target's buffed) with it's normal ability. The great part about this bow is that it completely removes any buff the target has. This is incredibly useful against bosses that uses Brave and Default in the fight, keeping it safer for your party from being one-shotted randomly.

Priority[]

Recommended Reason
5BowE35BowF45BowN45BowW2 Poison Bows. These bows will only work when you're hitting the correct elements. When the conditions are met, you can continuously stack Poison giving your target a timely death.
File:5BowF6.png This weapon has the debuff Weakness. This increases the damage the enemy takes overall.

What about Armors?[]

Armors in this game serves very good purposes.

  • Increases your survival.
  • Increases your normal ability or special ability damage.
  • 5* Armors has awesome buff/effects.

However, most of the effects they carry requires you to specifically use the correct weapon types, with the correct elements, for the correct effects. Armor in this game is very flexible, and you shouldn't always be using 5* ones unless it actually benefits you skill wise.
