My Acro is kicking ass and I went 3 DEX 2 STA

No INT or STR

With this config I have no problem fighting 7 levels up and often go to 8 or 9.

If you have the real cash to spend... I suggest investing it in Refresher Holds and hit 7 levels up for quick leveling.

I love my Arcro....

[blackguy09]

would a full sta yocro be good, cuz thats what im going to make

[yodamaniac45]

i had a lawolf acro that i screwed... but then i moved to aibatt, and am making my 3rd char a bow acro, and was thinking one of these two builds, but i'm not entirely sure which would work better (its going to be a combo pve/pvp/bounty hunter ranger eventually)

sta-25%
dex-60%
int-15%

or

sta-15%
dex-80%
int-5%

and what skills that a ranger uses (other than dark illusion and fast walker) require fp? does aoe, cus i thought all bow skills used int for fighting with them

[redemption66]

i think ima go wit a full dex bowcrobat cuz it seems better in my case

[RevsStriker98]

For a Yo-yo acro, the Str/Sta is the best in PvP from what I have read. But I was wondering *as i plan on making a yocro* if i should invest any of my stat points on Dex with that build. If I should then how many. And also could you advise me on how to distrubute my stat points for the Str/Sta build???

[FuriousOwl]

My acro is 3x, all dex with 30 sta. I saw a lvl 46ish? bowcro. Junk arrow lvl 16, 30 sta, 91 dex and she pretty much owned a Boss Cardpuppet in under 3 min with junk arrow.. Hitting like 900's. Pretty dang cool. She was getting hit pretty hard, but meh <_< food ftw

Yoyo Acrobats
Ahh the class that was nerfed before it even came out. They look bloody cool, but when you take a look at their base weapon damage, it sorta makes you wonder if the developer who thought them up didn't like yoyos to much as kid. Really, their damage will bring a tear of rage to your eyes. HOWEVER Jesters have the most self buffs (apart from assists who can caste their buffs on everybody) in game. Better yet, they all stack, so it covers that little flaw nicely once you hit 60. I'll say this right now, full anything jesters blow hard. They can't kill fast enough not to die horribly or be at the same monster for more then 3 minutes.

Dex/Str/Sta
Read: The assists best friend. Really, this build works best with an assist IMO. Unless you cut back on one of the stats, probably sta, and siphon it into str, soloing things a few level higher then you will not come about till your mid 30's low 40s. That isn't cool.... However assist buffs would likely cover this nicely. Essentially this is the definition of a midiocer character. Decent speed and defence and visiably lower attack strength.

Upside
-If you have a full support assist friend, you two will work great together.
-You can do a bit of everything and not die.
-Knock backs save your ass every now and again.

i think you got the something wrong there.
there shouldnt be a downside for this kind of build. i should know.
my stats(at lvl 36) are as follows:
STR:28
STA:36
DEX:53
at lvl 36 im killing small tombstone bearers.
im at 40%.
died only 3 or 4 times. and i kill them very,VERY fast.
oh yeah.
o forgot to mention that i own lvl 45 bow acros in the arena.

oh yeah.
owning giant giggle box for less then 4 minuets. once one of the lvl 30+ assists from my guild logs in ill use a stop watch to get the exact time.

[Woland]

I lvl 15 acrobat, how I increase my stats?

[Maore]

Syberos: It depends on what character you want to play later on, unless you have the money lying around to buy a restat scroll. I personally find bowcros easier to play (yoyos are too annoying with the knockback). Also, depending on whether or not you go bow or yoyo, your stats vary greatly.

I'd start with something like 25 Sta and the rest into Dex if you were going bowcro. People leave refreshers on the ground and sell them for pretty cheap a lot of the time so you don't have to worry about pot costs or Int.

[xaki]

Personally, Im just wondering how to distrubute my stats for a Yoyo-Acro. My friend says Dex doesnt really help so I should put in STR But Im not too sure. ^^;

But I was thinking, for every 6 points, 1 to STR/STA and 4 to DEX.

Or possibly for every 6 points 1 to STR, 2 to STA, and 3 to DEX.

Or possible for every 6 points 2 to STR, 1 to STA, and 3 to DEX.



<div class=\'quotetop\'>QUOTE</div><div class=\'quotemain\'> Another plan?

I want to start off with 30 STR, 25 STA, 18 DEX.

For every three levels -- 1 to STR/STA and 4 to DEX to make up for the lack of DEX.

Then around level 27 --if I make it-- or so I'm thinking of cutting it down to 1 to STR, 2 to STA, and 3 to DEX. Perhaps totally cutting down STR later in the future when it's high enough and making it 1-1 for STA and DEX per level.

OR

Starting off with 25 STR, 25 STA, and 23 DEX.

Same plan. <3

The question is how high should STR be?

What do you guys think?

[asimskee]

im a jester as of yesterday and i say build your self like a blade since we have the worst accuracy / hitrate ever. you know the whole balde thing
80dex, 40sta and rest str. this way you wont miss like a blind man and you will still hit hard and because you have more dex you will hit more, crit more and knockback more so inderectly you get hit less. skill spamming is ok up to lvl 30 but after its not so good. my lady friend restated to a bow jester and she loves it..... part from getting owned. i said to her
" bow jester: good at pvm kills fast.
side effects: dies like a bi*ch and needs rm in an ideal world"
and on another thing 60 dex isnt enough unless you have a nice +ed suit for the + hit rate bonus and isnt enough to hav a nice dodge rate coz we get hit hard with no sheild. if you think about it with a nice high lvl PB and a nice doddge rate you will not take as much damage hence why i say build yourself like a blade. with or crittyness as a jester ( if i die and dont use critical swing with my trusty assist lady friend ii still crit about 6~6/10 attacks ) we are sort of super blades.
i think jesters are like blades that can pvp. some thing like Drizzt Do'Urden's build is reali good.
and to those who say tat yoyo damage is weak n stuff like that with a good build we can do like hmmmmm.......... 2k a crit and with enchant poisin max and a dex build the mob will take like 100 damage a second. another thing its impossible to spam jester skills since they all have a cooldown. at lvl 65 i know someone who does like 1.5k with xline max. i out kill him with a dex build and he hardly ever trigger poisin while mine always effects due to the high number of attacks/chances it gets. i feel liek answering questions so ask and ill try find out for u ^^. BLADE BUILD FTW!!!!!

[Jelly]

Lol I went all dex with my bow acrobat ><;;;;
Yep... I die alot. A LOT.

[Elgarth]

Thanks to Drizzet and Azim. I just made the first job advance and my Yocrobat has been blowing big time as far as hitting. I mean WTH, I hit better as a Vigrant. That just blows.

Based on rounding Drizzets Dex up to 56 the ratio of STR:STAEx = 7:9:14.
Information I wish I had at the first job reset but I have plenty of time to fix my build.

ya fixing builds is part of it like me going from a bow acrobat to a yoyo acrobat xD. Had 43 dex and 29 sta , 15 dex when i switched and went from killing captain wagsaac in 10-15 sec to 40 sec..Now im lvl 30 and i think my normal attacks are faster in killing than crossline ='(. So much fp wasted killing one gigglebox with it.

[Trikster]

Hey guys. i just made a new account and wanted to know the best yo-yo jester build. as asimskee said would the blade style build be best?

one thing i wanna know if i was to build like the blade what attributes would i put up at 1st-job change?

oh and if i was to do the dex/str jester build what would my stats be at lvl 60? cause that style build looks appealing too.

thanks guys. get back to me if you can

cheers
