    The element requirements you have for Tree of Protection are wrong. Spent my points in the way you showed and ended up wasting them. Just letting you know so that it can be changed.

    Look at the last edit date of that post: Well over a year ago.

    Relying on this for up-to-date information isn't a very good idea with how many things about genies that have changed since then.

    I just use my genie for Second Wind.

    I find the heal very useful and I don't need pots as much. Also, I messed my genie up by taking any skill, so now it's stats are 20 str, 20 dex, 5 mag, and 8-12(?) mag. But it has 9/10 lucky points right now so I'm keeping it.

    Nah, Second Wind is better than ToP for the lower levels anyway.

    So, its me again, Reached lvl 25. ^.^



    Just one little Question...How should i Stat my Genie? Dex, Mag etc?


    My Genie is lvl 13 atm i think, i didnt infuse him with either Exp or Spirit, because it works fine for me without a Genie anyways, at least for the Moment. I didnt learned any Skill, but i skilled the Metal, Wood, Water Thing, so i can use Holy Path with the next Point, since i only die because of a random spawning Aggro Mob, its seems to be the best. If its not, ill learn something else.



    Second Wind? I didnt saw that yet, is this some Kind of Healing Spell?

    ond wind is the littel bro of TOP. It heals you for 800hp+. Top can heal you for alot more ( like 8K+ )
    You got fb, bh, HH, TT, and FC but i have a BD ( Beer Drinking )

    hi,

    tree of protection requires 3 wood and 4 water to learn it and can learn it at lvl 31 and above.

    don't you mean second wind for the beginning?

    Do archers use Stunning Blast to buy time to run away or do they freeze the melee toon and then attack just outside his range?

    Hi, i just recently started playing again after a few year hiatus.. Yea.. ********.... anyways, i'm still oldskool and played beta. my archer was retired at 78 which back then was considered a very high level toon. I'm incredibly pleased with my archers build despite what others have told me, and haven't even considered using fists. im 95 percent pure build, with just a touch of vit for pvp, however my long vacation as it were was probably a mistake as there is suddenly an entirely new facet to my character... a genie. I had no idea what to do with it and just read through the skills, thinking about what i would use. I have levelled up lightning chaser *metal dmg and spell interrupt* for caster interrupts (take that clerics) Wind shield *increase atk rate and evasion* which cmon i mean.. no brainer PEW PEW PEW then i went with cloud eruption so i can maximize my spark uptime, and last but not least my favorite *which im sure many of you will disagree but hear me out* electro dance. Aoe lightning damage with the sweet added bonus of an aoe stun for 5secs. sure i have to be flying but in TW right as i am landing pop it off and let loose with a barrage. GUESS WHAT you have to stand there and take it and now you are all dead. Now i understand that this leaves a huge gap in - healing, running away, etc - but really; archers are glass cannons. made to get in and hurt people as much as possible as fast as possible and sure, i cant heal myself, i cant remove poisons, i cant run away all max speed... but im sure someone else has the movement speed increase, clerics are supposed to heal, and i get to do my job. best part is, i can tell you to sit there and take it. i can interrupt casts, i can aoe stun, i can hella boost my evasion *which really helps against barbs, bm, and assassin a large deal. *assassin not as much but, really they get you pegged you are usually dead anyway* so there it is. No you cant cast at me, yes you will sit there and get barraged for at least 5 seconds, and if you come in close to hit me i will DODGE DODGE DODGE and all the while im almost constantly at least single sparked. Like it? hate it? well, don't care just thought i'd add my two cents to the genie build.

    Unfortunately, not only is this a necro but the guide is also dated.

    As such, this thread shall be closed.
