cash shop / other questions

[ribbitribbit]

i'm curious as whether or not you can realistically play this game without the cash shop, or is it absolutely needed? I mean levelling and playing alongside those who use it

also, if me and my friend started would a warrior/cleric combo be the best bet? we'd be playing together all the time

thanks alot

If you don't PvP then cash shop isn't necessary, but it can make certain aspects nicer (mounts, costumes etc). I played off and on for two years before spending spark cash.

Warrior/cleric is a good combination, you should be able to take on all of the monsters that you guys want. I think it would be the best combination if you didn't want to use a lot of expensive ingame /cash shop items.

a old post on whether u can get high lvl w/o sc
Generally yes but the life w/o sc is tough and u can only evied those with nice clothes and haristyle.
+9/+10 weapons's pirces are rocket high so unless u can get some1 to grind with u and earn money otherwise quite hard

it is unnecessary to use sc below lvl91.. but again, u will enjoy the game more if u use sc.

i started using premium items when im 89.. before that, i just changed my hairstyle to have better features. basically, its up to u whether to use sc or not D:

btw, i think mage/cleric or archer/cleric would be better than fighter/cleric combo :D

[ribbitribbit]

thanks for the answers, why do you think these combos are better?

During your first 20 levels or so a fighter/cleric combo is good because the other two classes (archer/mage) have not received their AOE skills yet.

As you level up, quests will require you to kill more than a hundred mobs, and since Fighters can only kill one mob at a time, this can get very tedious.

Archers and Mages, despite their excellent attack, have low defence, especially if they are not cash-shopped. Therefore your friend (or you) should play the cleric to back him/her up.

With the Archer/Cleric combo, you and your friend can kite through your levels (After lvl 51 - Nature's Mist).

With the Mage/Cleric combo, you and your friend can just AOE the heck outta everything (After lvl 60 - Freezing Nova).

So generally with an Archer/CLeric or a Mage/Cleric duo, you can kill mobs more effectively.

well cash shop items r not neccesary but u might want exp boost cards for higher lvls. its posible but not very prectical. if u play to lvl 80+ then u might as well buy some sc even if its jus a bunch of exp boost cards.

combo thing:

well youll never really to duo till lvl 60+ cause quests r prety easy and u can always jus get a full party cause grind exp isent that importent till lvl 60+ so for lvl 60+ its:

1. mage/cleric reason: nova, inferno, magic burst if the mage has a +9/10 then he/she will kill mobs befor you blink
2. arcehr/cleric reason: mist, pearcing shot they jus kit around and let the DoT do all the work and kill everything at 1 time jus not as fast as mage
3 fighter/cleric reason: like ccasaro said u kill things 1 at a time so it takes a while.
