1 - Basics

As you create a character you start out as a visitor.
The visitors are created by the Goddess Aura to investigate the evil influence in the world.
Once reaching level 10 you are allowed to do the first job change quest.
Talk to Warrren in Zant to start the quest.
At first you choose between Hawker, Soldier, Muse and Dealer.
All classes got various skills and are good at different things.

2 - The fundamental of the classes

The melee class. Soldiers specialize in using heavy weapons like 2 handed sword, axes, spears, 1 handed blunts and 1 handed swords.

Pick this class if you like to tank and do a lot of damage.

Soldier>1 handed > Knight

Soldier> 2 handed > Champion

   
Hawkers are the assassins of Rose Online.

They got high moment speed, ability to hide and to attack quickly. A typical hit and run class.

They use katars, dual wields and bows.

A very few also use crossbows.

Hawker> Melee> Raider
Hawker> Bow > Scout

   

Muses are the magic users in the world of Rose Online. They got skills that guarantee them to make high damage and kill quick or the ability to heal and to resurrect allies in battle.

The offensive muses use staffs while the healers use wands.

Muse> Wizard > Mage
Muse> Healer> Cleric

   

Dealers are also called the money machines. They can earn money very quick by their market skills. They often got high offensive ability but weak defence.

The main directions are crafters and cannons users. The crafters use guns and the more offensive dealers use launchers. Bourgeois can also use guns.

Dealer> Crafter > Artisans

Dealer> Offensive > Bourgeois

     
Each time when you level up you will get

x number of stat points.

To view them press CTRL+A or the avatar window.

3 - Stat points

 


To spend the points press on the “+” beside them.

For each level one stat point will cost more

Use the points carefully, right now their isnt any way you can reset them.

(INT); This stat is only used by the muse class. INT is the main giving AP stat for wands and staffs. It will increase your MP and magic defence. A very few of the crafters increase their INT so they can mass craft easier. INT gives AP for Staffs and Wands only.

 

(CON); CON give more Accuracy for all classes. The dealer class use CON as main stats cause CON give a lot of AP for guns and launchers in fact CON only gives AP for those weapons. Even though most classes don’t get any AP from CON all classes use it to get better Accuracy. CON lower the risk of crafting fail.

 

(CHA); This stat effect has been discussed since the start of Irose and is still being discussed.

What we do know is that CHA increase quest rewards. It is said that CHA would increase drop rate also but has been tested negative. I recommend not putt any stats into CHA

(SEN); SEN increase your Critical (CRIT) rate, by 1 for each point. SEN gives AP for all ranged weapons like Wands, Bows, Guns, Launchers, and Crossbows.

But SEN is a tricky stat. Depending on your level you’ll get different amounts of AP.

A level 100+ cleric would get more AP than a level 25 healer. The melee raiders (katar and dual wield) also add a little SEN. SEN makes the possibly for a dealer to get stats on a crafted item bigger.

(STR); This is the stat you will increase you defence and your HP. Strength give attack points (AP) to all weapons who need STR to wield, dual wields, staffs and launchers. (DEX); DEX is the stat that will improve your Dodge. DEX is a main target for hawkers. DEX gives AP for following weapons: Bows, Katars, Dual wields, Crossbows and Guns. DEX should give AP to most of the range weapons more or less.
4 - Different types of builds
Below I’ll give some information about different types of builds and weapon choices
 
To make your character as good as possible you need to get your stats right.
 

he main stat for a soldier is Strength (STR) because you need it to wield proper weapons and to get good defence. Also some Concentration (CON) would be good to improve your Accuracy (hit rate).

Champions

The offensive soldiers use 2 handed weapons like spears, axes and 2 handed swords.

More AP > Axes-Swords-Spears < Less AP

More Attack speed > Spears-Swords-Axes < Less Attack speed

2 handed swords

Swords got a nice balance between AP and attack speed.

The skills that can be used by swords got more AP than axes and spears but 2 handed swords lack debuffs.

Swords are the way to go if you like raw power.

STR and CON is main stats, but a little SEN could also work.

Axes

Axes got the best AP of the melee weapons but also the slowest.

Axes are a pvp (player vs. player) class cause of their stun skills. They got the 2nd best stun in game.

Cause of their stuns axes are pot savers. STR and CON is the best stats. SEN if you like CRITS.

Spears

If you like attack speed on the cost of lowered AP go spear champion.

Spears also got good aoe (area of effect) skills. STR, CON and SEN would be a very good combination.

Knights use 1 handed weapons in one hand and a shield in the other.

Knights are the tankers in Rose Online. Knights do not have to choose weapons,

they can use all their skills with 1 handed sword and blunt depending on what type of weapon they like.

1 handed swords got less AP than Blunt weapons but more attack speed.

AP = Blunt weapons

Attack speed = 1 handed swords

 

Hawkers use DEX to improve their AP and Dodge.

The AP giving stats are different depending of weapons. CON is always good and almost all hawkers got a little SEN.

Raiders

Raiders are divided into 2 weapons, Katars and Dual Wields.

Katar got superior attack speed while having less AP than Dual wields.

Katars

If you like to have insane attack speed and having skills that guarantee you the ability to hide go katar.

Katars do not have to skill spam cause of their CRITS and their attack speed.

DEX, CON and SEN would make a pretty nice character.

Dual wields

Dual wields got a lot of power and high dodge.

They don’t have as high attack speed as the katar users but got better skills to use.

Dual hawker got skill that will make enemies miss a lot often.

They also got a bunch of debuffs making their enemies weaker.

DEX is main target. STR, CON and SEN at a proper level are also good.

All scouts use bows. Bows are range weapons with decent attack speed and AP.
At the moment there are no skills for crossbow making them useless.

Bows

Bows got the only stun in the hawker class. They also have a hawk summon wich can fight for them.

Bow hawkers are excellent solo:ers cause they got skills making them less depending on a party.

Scouts also get Stealth, a skill which makes the player invincible for a time.

DEX is of course the main stat. CON and SEN are also good if you don’t like to skill spam.

Crossbows

Sadly there are no skills for crossbows at the moment.

 

Muses pump INT. Depending on if the character is a mage or a healer you get different stats,

please look further down of details.

Healer/Cleric = Wand + Support tool
Wizard/Mage = Staff

Mages

Mages use staffs. Staffs got better MP reducing in % and greater AP than wands.

Mages got basic healing skills but are best in killing things.

Mages are the best offensive class but lack in defence.

Mages have to choose between being a fire mage or an ice mage.

The fire mage can call upon great fires on the enemy and wield the powers off fire.

Ice mages got skills that stop the enemy from reaching you by stunning it with lightning or slowing it down.

INT, STR and CON would get you a good mage.

Clerics

Clerics are the allies everyone wants.

Their buffs are strong and their heals is way better than any pot. Clerics lack in attack skills though.

They get only one attack skill and not any stun till level 145.

This do not mean cleric have to party. Clerics got many summonses that will help both in recovering and in killing monsters.

Most clerics max INT early cause of INT gives better buffs.

There are 2 different builds of a cleric.

The first one and the most common is the INT/SEN build. SEN gives AP and so do INT.

The INT/SEN clerics use a magic shield in their free hand.

 

Dealers use CON and SEN as stats.

Generally the dealer class got high AP but pretty low CON cause of the lack of STR.

Artisan

The majority of crafters max CON as early as possible cause CON decrease the failure rate of crafts.

This leads to low defence but isn’t a really big problems since they got summons they can use as tanks in case of solo.

Their high amount of SEN also makes them good CRIT makers.

CON/SEN build is the best.

A very few also adds DEX instead of SEN since DEX also gives AP.

Artisans are the only source of certain items and are an important part of the economy in Rose Online.

Bourgeois

Bourgeois are divided into 2 weapons: Guns and Launchers.

Guns got less AP but more attack speed than launchers.

Launchers got superior AP but can only carry 4x999 stacks of ammo.

Gun bourgs

Gun bourgs got a very high attack speed and critical rate. They do lack in defence.

Gun bourgs are the best pvp:ers cause they got the best stun in game but they need high level to obtain that skill.

Gun bourgs also get summon who can tank for them.
CON/SEN build or a CON/SEX build would work fine.

Launcher bourg

Launcher bourgs are excellent farmers cause of their skills that increase drop rate.

They also got high AP making levelling pain free.

They don’t got as bad defence as the gun bourgs do but it is still pretty low.

The stun that launcher bourgs got has a bad range as the rest of their skills making them lousy at pvp but kings of pvm. CON/STR/SEN is the most common build.
