Backups of original guides from DoMO forums of the past. The majority of these were backed up from posts on TWDomo.com before its domain expired (most of which were originally retrieved from Aeria by Angitia and Aaron). Extremely old.

  • Merc build: 2 dura, 1 agi. always.
  • circle circle circle
  • do not use goose

  • always wear the highest lvl armor you can equip
  • always have at least one full set of extra HA with you at all times, two if possible once lvl 30+
  • prolong doesnt take away hp, it gives you more
  • equip HA skill is extremely useful

-Doc-
  • max aid (fa), fff, prolong, in that order. always those three first. if they're not maxed, don't ask what you should level next
  • fff merc
  • fff AOEs
  • max Greater Healing
  • you need lvl 6 regen for inner. GET INNER at lvl 33.
  • always have a big pile of frogs (300+)

  • get fuse
  • always lvl mantra and fuse first
  • get ditty

  • you cannot move, use skills, or heal yourself while your playing songs
  • fuse doc first, self second, merc third, aoes fourth

-Pullers-
(aka. thief, hunter, MA, BM)
  • do not remove circle. you run slower but the def bonus is worth it
  • listen to team, when they say stop pull, STOP PULLING
  • if there's another team in the room, do not pull the whole room!
  • if there's another team in the room, do not pull the other team's side (your team will tell you what that is if you don't know)
  • always have lots of arrows (500+) and beginner bow with you.
  • get and fill an arrow case. not necessary, but helpful (unless hunter class, then its definately necessary)
