This whole Genie thing has got me perplexed, would anyone be able to give me a hand and enlighten me a little?

So far I have two characters, one is an archer and the other is a wizard but after reading different threads/guides here and there I just seem to be more confused about what Genie each of them should be using (and why), which skills are the most useful for a PvP server and what i should be looking to spend my skill points in,

Also I hear about people "binning" a genie due to it getting low lucky points at level up, what do they mean and how can i stop my genie from having the same fate?

Hope someone can help me :)

    k when you go to the "Watcher of the skies" npc in the major cities

    if you do the quests you'll get a free genie
    based on what you class is you'll get a different genie

    now besides the starting skill and appearance
    there's no difference in the genies

    so whatever genie you get it doesn't really matter
    it's just how you cutsomize it

    now then depeding on what kind of player you are and what class
    you'll want different skills
    if your a melee pvper you'll want skills that protect against status ailments

    if your a magic pvper you'll want skills that cause status ailments

    if your a pver you'll mainly want skills that decrease enemy stats
    (decrease phsy def etc)


    now then every ten levels your genie recieves "lucky points"
    which basically are randomly given attributes points
    that range from getting 1-10

    however if your genie gets a certain number of lucky points
    the appearance of the genie will also change

    so people will buy mutliple genies to try to get genies with high amounts of
    lucky points



    if there's anythign else you need to know just ask

    At present I have 5 Genies on my Mage, one with 22/40, 14/20, 1/10, 1/10 and 1/10

    So since all of them have very poor Lucky Points, what would be my best course of action? Start a new Genie and decompose the others in a weeks time or stick things out with one of the "failure" genies?

    Do lucky points have a governing factor on my Genie?

    i'd stick with the genie that has 14/20

    luck points yeah they kind've do
    as i said luck points are just Extra Attribute points
    that you can put into str dex vit mag on your genie

    so the more you have the bigger the advantage

    however it's not a HUGE deal
    soemone with agenie that has 10 more luck points on you isn't going to
    have any distinct advantage it'll just be whoever knows how to use their genie better

    but yes luck points are useful
    waste 15 mirages trying to get a genie with alot of luck points useful?
    not quite

    but if you end up with a genie that only has 20/60 luck

    then yeah get a new one
