[Guide] What does this stat do? A players guide!

[Senjuu]

but did it also reduce critical damage i received? or just normal damage. and how about magic attack? reduced also?if it reduce matk then this could be the answer for my knight build...

i'm trying to build a lazy knight who solely depend on block dodge shield and reverse damage..

thanks for your quick response good sire!a very kind of you

MATK and PATK can be blocked (chance to get reduced damage) but crit no.. crit is crit and is not affected by block. try to combine the two astrals in your build.. i have seen knights doing that and is satisfied by the outcome (recommended level of character = 40; for the purpose of equipping 4 astrals)

very very nice. one addendum to troop hp calculation. you mean to say in your explanation that its troop base hp times c troop count you said
"To explain further, take the troop count multiply that number by your troop count; then divide that number by 200."
take troop count multiply by base hp...

to make it clear sire, its (Troop Base HP (including Technology upgrades) * Troop Count (including technology upgrades also) ) / 200

Ooops, sorry about that, it has been corrected.

I know about the crit. increase.
For every 100 points of crit. = 3% crit. chance (not sure about the crit. damage tho)

is there any point in upgrading a knights matk??

[B4nsh33]

Great guide! Should be sticky so it stays at the top. I've been playing for 10 days and thanks to your guide, I now know, charisma is a waste of money, time and effort.

well, I though charisma meant luck, if i would have had this guide it would have helped. P.S. Charisma is GREAT for mages and archers .... especially world boss. It may not be your first choice, but don't over look its usefulness, especially in catacombs

nope. But increasing Intelligence will increase their mdef somewhat,but not high on the list of usefulness as defense helps out more on a much higher level. My power on my mage is level 5 on the guild skills, but only because there was nothing else left to buy at my guild at the time Provided some pdef, but not really worth it ..... I'd rather save up for Intelligence being a mage, you would want Power being a knight.

Just beef up your Armor and defense stat to have high mdef and pdef

Very good nice chart but how do you get them up like armor how do you get your your armor numbers up in acad. which one do you improve on to get your numbers up?

You can gain stats in a multitude of ways.

1. Better gear, and refining gear for better stats.
2. Better socketed gems.
3. Guild skills.
4. Academy technologies.
5. Astrals.
6. Temporary boosts from potions and scrolls.

For the academy, you have to decide which ones to upgrade, they tell you what they do if you mouse over them, and for fuller explanations see the table.

Charisma is very useful for higher levels, too; troops are a good defense against knights (especially with higher resistances). I just love boosting charisma and PDEF when I know I'm fighting a knight (not many AoE options).
