Hi all!

I just got to the point where i have all the mats to make a lvl1 tome. The question is: which one? I'm a full dex archer btw :)

I think there are 2 possibilities: the +5 dex or the +4 dex,+3 vit tome. Which one should i make?

Ty!

    Having never made one I cannot say for certain what you should make.

    The first thing I would look at is what is higher level tome, lets say the level 8 tome, your working towards? Work backwards from there.

    You would know your character best as if you need the hp or not ultimately.

    EDIT:
    Just thought of this, when tracing back you might find out that you need one that gives stats you hadn't really considered like mp recovery or something that would make the grind less painful.

    As an archer you won't need mp recovery, it already sucks and it will always be that way. Increase something you need and use such as dex or str.

    The +5 dex and +4/+3 dex/vit tomes are the only ones worth considering.
    Both are required for their higher order counter parts.
    Go for +4/+3 for now and use a pure dex one for lvl 3-5.

    Get them by doing rebirth orders.

    I would say dont get any. Use a Christmas blessing as 1% crit is better than any level1-3 tome. Also as a final tome you should get the one that has 1% crit 9dex 9str 8mag 9 vit. Some may say get the 1crit 20 dex one but str can be restat into dex so the tome i mentioned is actually more like 1% crit 18dex 9 vit which is better than only 20 dex (magic is negligible as it cannot be restat and is all around useless)

    P.s. to make a final tome u need 234 fragments so simply save them up and get the leet tome straight away

    Dont u need to make loads of low lvl tomes anyway to make the final one? Seems pointless stacking up on 234 tomes when u have to make the lvl 1-4 tomes for the final ones anyway b:surrender Might just as well make the tomes u need for your final choice when u have the mats.

    The awesome one with 9.9.8.9 stat points and crit needs 2-4% exp, regen and magic tomes tho not the dex ones... but those i would make asap when i have the mats since they're usefull for zhen and grinding ^_^

    Yh some are useful for grinding but really i was thinking about pvp and nothing on that chain i would really prefer over 1% crit

    Surprisingly one of the lev 4 tomes you use for the lev 5 9/9/8/9 tome is made from 2 level 2 tomes and 1 level 3 as opposed to 3 level 3.

    That makes this tome 36 fragments cheaper than the other level 5 tomes. Pretty convenient for being the best one.

    I checked the tree for this tome and even though it is not in the dex or hybrid dex/vit main path, you can still use up to the level 2 dex tome (tale of peach fan) or up to the level 3 hybrid dex/vit tome on your way to this level 5 tome.
    Higher order dex or dex/vit tomes are not on the way so keep that in mind.
