    Every class has to deal with a decent chunk of coin to max out their skills.
    I posted this eons ago, not sure where the original post is, but here is a copy from my archive.
    We used to say that clerics were the most expensive, because their skills cost more, MP pot use-age ect. After Playing the Psychic for a while I figured the cleric wasn't the most expensive anymore, because skills cost more. So, I got curious and did some research.

    This list only counts the coin cost to purchase skills. it does not add in the cost of repairs, grinding time, or hp/mp pot use-age because those factors are too variable. Meaning they change a lot depending on what your build is and how you play.

    Cost to max all your Skills to level 10.
    • Wizard-->40 Million
    • Archer-->34 Million
    • Cleric-->29 Million
    • Barb-->33 Million
    • Veno-->34 Million
    • Assassin-->57 Million
    • Psychic-->51 Million
    • BM:General-->8 Million
      • :Sword-->13 Million
      • :Polearm-->11 Million
      • :Axe/Hammer-->11 Million
      • :Fist/Claw-->11 Million
    (54 Million for all BM masteries)

    Now, the numbers above don't include the cost of apocalypse pages and medium ink, which you need to make the skill books for your level 79 skills.

    If you mean "max out" by sage/demon skills, then these are your numbers:
    • Wizard-->77 Million
    • Archer-->74 Million
    • Cleric-->57 Million
    • Barb-->65 Million
    • Veno-->71 Million
    • Assassin-->101 Million
    • Psychic-->90 Million
    • BM:General-->28 Million
      • :Sword-->22 Million
      • :Polearm-->19 Million
      • :Axe/Hammer-->19 Million
      • :Fist/Claw-->19 Million
    (107 Million for all BM masteries)

    These numbers don't include the price of the sage/demon skill book which, depending on what skill, type (sage/demon) and class you are, can go for millions.

    Overall, the cheapest class is Cleric while your most expensive class is BM if you max ALL skills, or Assassin.
    What does this mean? All of us that complained about clerics and barbs being the most expensive, with Veno's being the cheapest.... well we were all full of ****. O.O

    Hope this helps.
    Sure, it's just the original classes, and no Morai skills, but it's a start.



    So as you can see, trying to pick a class based on whether or not it's cheap is... kinda futile.

    Every class has AOEs, but their use tends to use a large amount of mana.

    The classes with the lowest potion needs are archers and venos.

    I'd agree with veno being very cheap and also quite useful for squads. They're fairly lacking in the AOE department though. AOE-oriented characters would be wizards, seekers, archers, blademasters.

    I'm guessing you mean cheap in terms of pot usage. If this is an issue to you avoid mystics. Anyway with free divine pots and the low price of level 75 pots its not really an issue. What matters is moneymaking ability and the best PVP classes will always score low in that. Its how the game is set up.
