What is a hybrid character?

A hybrid character is made up of skills that are not in the same category or have two or more skills in the same category, e.g. Magic Soldier, Magic Bowman, Wizard Jr., Warrior, etc. All players are encouraged to make some type of a hybrid build to be good all-around.

Pros

  • Gain additional skills to add to your combos or buffs
  • Extremely strong and versatile

Cons

  • More skill vouchers needed to level skills.
  • Expensive if switching from a pure build when above Level 20

IMPORTANT: Skill Crystals

  • Players at level 20 or below can change skills and as many times as needed, but once you are level 21 and above you need to purchase a Skill Crystal from the Item Mall or other players.

IMPORTANT: Assault, Curse, Shadow Blade

  • Cast time reduction is needed for your skill to be instant, that will allow you to use all ur combo skills at once and to not be interupted on casters, getting 1 of these 3 is mandatory for any build.
  • Stats:
  • Assault: -1.0 sec Casting Time (-1.3 sec Casting Time if you have the rank 5 buff).
  • Curse: -0.8 sec Casting Time (-1.0 sec Casting Time if you have the rank 5 buff).
  • Shadow Blade: -0.8 sec Casting Time (-1.0 sec Casting Time if you have the rank 5 buff).

Importance of Wraith or Earth as a mage.

  • In order to level, you need a way to sustain not only HP, but MP as well. This comes in 3 viable forms.
  • The first form, and best, is wraith. Wraith gets a skill called Forbidden Curse. This skill heals your HP and Mana based on a % of the Damage it deals. This turns into a full HP heal, and large MP heal.
  • The second form is earth. This skill line gives a spell called Gnash. This skill regens a portion of your mana, but requires Gnash to land the killing Blow. Recommend Gnash 4, and 45k Spell attack for viability.
  • The third and least form of mana sustain is Shield. Shield has a skill called Sacred Shield, which doubles your mana, fully heals your mana, and puts a shield on you that will make all damage instead, do damage to your MP. This makes your MP drain fast, and this is not recommended until you have top tier gear, high SA, and high enough MP.

Importance of Mana sustain and SP sustain

  • If you picked to play a fighter class you should know 1 thing before regreting your choice.
  • For PvP fighter needs alot of SP and a full sp bar (unless you are with top gear) will not be enough to kill a top player.
  • If you still want to play a fighter would recommend if your going Bow/Axe take Spear as secondery skill http://angels.wikidot.com/stances:spear#bloodlust but if you decide to go sword then you are better off using finesse instead of bugging dual weapons or simply use spear.
  • If buying tons of SP scrolls is not a problem for you then you have nothing to worry about.
  • If your build does not have Mana/MP sustain and your primary a mage leveling or any content worn't be really fun that why people use wraith http://angels.wikidot.com/spells:wraith#forbidden-curse and some use also shield but for pvp or if they don't have wraith http://angels.wikidot.com/stances:shield#mana-flow

Life/Chaos This is the best PvP build for Mage, but lacks leveling potential on low levels. Not recommended until you have all top tier gear. You could go for Life/Chaos/StaffHit/Assault/Axe/Vestment if you don't wanna deal with 3 weapons but the build is not gonna be as strong. Requires 3 weapon switch to keep shadowblade buffs on life.gif

Sword This is a combo based class, and is capable of casting 12+ spells as part of 1 combo. Recommended to use macros due to AO latency. This build is made entirely possible by the fact that you can glitch duel wielding and do not need Finesse to use 2 swords. sword.gif

Shadow Blade Unfortunately shadowblade is the least customizable build in the game. This is because it requires ghostly tactics from assault, reserve for SP, and Grapple for the delay reduction on sinations. Which leaves 1 customizable slot, Avatar, you can change Preferred Skill to Spear for SP recovery and Spear trap + atk boost, Axe for crit on your Assasinations, Shield to tank people at ur or below ur gear. shadowblade.gif

Farmer This is the fastest money farmer for low to mid level zones 1-200 and is able to produce over 30+ million gold a day on medium income spots, the reason you should make this build is first repair one weapon is like onces a month and you need only 1 weapon and 1 mount that is the only investment.Using Shadow Blade as farmer will be easier but make less money in the long run because they kill 1 mob at a time. (in places with low monsters assasin will be better but not prefered shadowblade/reserve/earth/avatar/assault/vestment). axe.gif

Buffer This build has INSANE CAST SPEED and chaos buffs instead of earth the only reason you should make this type of buffer is if you are a wraith earth mage otherwise life/earth has better sustain for HP/HP and is more usefull as a healer + it can farm you decent gold if ur not using him life.gif
