This is a simple guide I thought I should make to help some new players out.

Status

For a Axe and Axe-Spear Build For a Blademaster use these status each level.

1 Vit. 3 Str. 1 Dex

For a sword and Spear build use these status each level.

1 Vit. 2 Str. 2 Dex.


SKills(Up to level 25)

I have listed some skill you should try leveling up the most. But make sure you have level 1 of each skill so you can get other skills as well.

Tiger Maw

Stream Strike

Aeolian Blade

Oceans Edge

Aura of the Golden Bell

Cloud Sprint




Enjoy and happy hunting.=]

    Suggested changes:

    Tiger maw, don't bother leveling it, it is a very weak skill, and the spirit points can be better used on others.

    Stream strike only level till your first specialized skill (e.g. Vacuous Palm for fist warrior).

    Aeolian Blade you will want to max because it does the highest damage per mana used.

    Aura of Golden Bell you will want to max.

    Diamond Sutra max, but do so slowly over time and make it a minimal priority.

    The other two sutra skills you will want to keep around level 3 because they become very self damaging if they go too far.

    Oceans Edge, keep at level 1 just so you can get skills in the same branch. It is of little use as when you fight mobs, they eventually stop anyways if they do retreat, and it won't do much in PvP anyways.

    Roar of the Pride is also a good skill, as it will be useful later on during AoE parties.

    Draw blood will always be useful up till around level 40, so level it till at least then.

    As for your builds, I completely agree with them, but as an addition, if for some reason there are problems with keeping up with armor and weapon requirements, then adjust as needed for however many levels necessary.

    Also, good job on keeping it short and simple. I can't stand guides that have crazy long posts when it can be put in a very simple format.

    Edit:

    Drakes Ray is also a very good skill to have, being it has high damage and has a distance to draw them in, which is good for any warrior, except fist warriors, who are better off using bows to draw in.

    Blademaster sounds good, but is there a difference in movement speed along other characters?

    I have leveled all the skills I listed as high as they will go, they work out ok and I still have 14k spirit left. And to be honest I'm not reading everhting you posted. Sorry. XD

    There is none, Blademaster does have a speed buff skill that makes him/her run faster but other then that there is no difference.

    From what I have read, there is indeed a slight speed difference among the different classes:

    Blademaster/Warrior = 5.0
    Mage = 4.8
    Archer = 5.2
    Priest = 4.8
    Werebeast/Barbarian = 4.9
    Werefox/Venomancer = 5.1

    I gleamed this information from http://pw-wiki.onlinewelten.com/enSkillsAttributes.ashx.

    I'm sorry, but that was a very mean thing to say. Also, he was trying to help, don't burn him down for being nice. He's not ignorant... if anything, you are for making a remark like that....

    There is no blademaster trainer in city of lost. Yuo should go back to etherblade and go to the trainer there. if you are standing front to Elder, go right, he will be in altana, near the exit.

    ok first off leave lost city and go back to Etherblade and second of all look for a guy names Blademaster Trainer, Blademaster Trainer can be found in the extreme northeast corner of Etherblade near the waterfall, and also in the circle of land near the teleporter,you can also find on in Archosaur, Silverpool, and sanctuary, tho i would not ecomend trying to get to sanctuary till you can fly as many of the mobs are like lv 70 and higher and running it is suicide.

    I disagree with a couple of skills you listed as priority to level, but that's just my opinion and you have yours. Since this is your guide, I will not comment on your opinion. b:pleased

    I appreciate you trying to help new players, but I do hope you do fact check before you post something under "Guide" such as the speed for each class. Since it is a guide and meant to help others, it would do more harm than good if incorrect information is given. b:surrender

    I have slight disagreements with the skills as well, I'd suggest you try leveling all those skills AND your most important ones later.

    Stream Strike- This skill..isn't very good. Sure if you want to tank, blademasters aren't the most profound tankers, and it isn't a very high damage dealer.

    Tiger Maw- Weak, weak skill, don't level it past 1.

    YES, spirit problems DO become promienent, especially after level 30, you will be low on spirit, so do not level any of the two i listed above past level 1...they won't serve you much in pve OR pvp.

    Pre-29 skills:

    Drakes Ray- Your ranged skill, maybe your only one, it does decent damage, good for some luring.

    Ocean's Edge- This is completely based on your style, I personally like it, its an extremely quick attack that can be chained with other skills.

    Draw blood- Optional, if you're going poleblade this is a must to level.

    Aeolian Blade- One of our three stuns, good damage. Nothing more to add,
    MAX!~

    Roar of the Pride- Another stun, AoE stun, GET IT! Max~

    Aura of the Golden Bell- Our pdef skill, max it you'll love it!

    Cloud Sprint- Our movement buff, very useful for getaways, or getting to monsters quickly, a must have.

    These are mostly my preferences, but spirit problems will become a problem later.
