So, I've been looking into Rb and I'd love to try it, but everyone says I need level 6 barrage. My question is what kind of manapool do I need to even sustain a level 6 barrage with a charm T_T it seems impossible...b:surrender

    You get mana auras in the event as your progress. Higher lv mana aura, less charm ****.

    Need about 1.9k-2k for lvl 7 barrage, so probably around there.

    Doesn't MP charm tick every 5 seconds. A level 10 barrage uses 580 mp per 3 seconds (if memory serves)... so you'll at the most only need 1.5k for level 10 (factoring in the 200+ mp to start the barrage). get a charm and you'll be fine.

    If you have over 2000 mp, once Mana Aura Lv. 2 is up, you wont even need a charm, i have 1891 at lvl 75 with BoA lvl 6 and i do Gamma without an MP charm.

    1.5k mp wouldn't hold a lvl 10 barrage. I remember my friend having lvl 7 barrage or so and 1.7k mp always made his zhen break.

    If you cant hold barrage, just find a nice cheap mp hat and put some immac mp shards in it. Im pretty sure mp shards are dirt cheap.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    you need 4x the mana it takes per 3 seconds. for 580, you'll need 2320 MP

    Also be aware that there are some mobs that mana drain pretty nastily, having a higher mana pool will help with this to be sure.

    its been a while for me, but i do recall mp charms have a 5 second tick. and since barrage drain 580 mp per 3 seconds. technically, you'll only need 2-3x mp to keep up barrage. and i do recall using lvl 10 barrages in rb with no mp aura... my mp never went pass the half way point even thou i only have like 2k mp.

    first...
    Ur barrage should be +5.. specially if ur the only archer in the group
    U shouldnt carry an mp charm cus mana recovering aura will help u wit it

    Before...
    u start the run.. tell the bm to select auras MP 2 CHI 1 ATACK 1 if possible..
    that would keep ur barrage goin forever.. (another trick is to kick the tank out of the party once first boss dies n barrage on tank n invite him bak... barrage will stay on him as target n will kill everything close by)

    During...
    U should mp event or regular pot yarself, it will cost u around 50k for like 3 runs but will be worth if u finish..

    Choosing..
    If ya really planin in doin it... ask sum friends or guildies that are lv 8x n tell them if u can join.. I did one early wit a 74 archer n she did great.. We did the whole run (everyone 8x)

    Never..
    Go to a rebirth without repairing,pots,charm, condoms b:victory
