beastboyisbeast's Ultimate Phsychic Guide

beastboyisbeast · January 2010

Note: This guide is not complete and probably never will be- a work in progress.

If you are not prepared to get to at least 60+, the Psychic is not for you. Save the hassle, play something else like a BM or WB.

The Psychic is a class of many debuffs and high hitting spells sort of like a Wizard.

Yes I know i spelled Psychic wrong. If a mod would swing by and change that please.

Acronyms:
In this guide I use several Acronyms that may not be known to new characters, here they are

PvE- Player versus Environment (Monsters)
PvP- Player versus Player
EA- Elf Archer
BM- Blade Master
WB- Were Beast otherwise known as Barbarian.

Pros & Cons:

Pros: High damage Nukes can easily take out most monsters without them reaching you. Not much of a need of HP potions or charms due to having not being hit most of the time. Great for early PvE. From my experience I have been wanted in parties for Vengeance and Silence. (other people tell me Psychics are not wanted in party,although I do not believe this is true) Also I have been wanted by some of my friends in PvP parties for my AoE debuffs and bleeds.

Cons: Very low survivability and HP at low and mid levels. But can be fixed with stones. Low HP regeneration. Consumes MP Potions at a fast and large amount. Will run out of MP after a couple of monsters.

So you are asking, "Should I be a Psychic?" Think if you want to own people fast but also be owned fast.

Builds:

Pure INT: This the most common build which goes like 1 STR and 9 MAG every 2 levels. 5 MAG every odd level and 4MAG 1 STR every even level. You would use arcane robes for this build. You will hit high damage but have low survivability. This can be fixed with HP stones. This build also uses a physical belt and/ or necklace to make up for lost defense.

Light Armour: A lot more survivability then the Pure INT build but at a cost of reduced magic attack. another plus of this build is there is extra Critical Rate from the DEX required to wear light armour. Will give more survivability at early levels. This build also helps with TW and PvP from the added physical defense.

VIT Build: This build will give your Psychic a little extra HP and physical defense, but I don't recommend it because the lack of HP can be made up with stones. You would use arcane robes for this build and socket them with HP stones.

Heavy Build: This build has high survivability but I don't recommend it to anyone because I have seen no one become successful with this build.

Melee Build: Who suggested this to me?

PvE Guide:

1-30: Most of these levels will fly by with quests.

30-39: More quests and the repeatable quest Crazy Stone, a quest that gives good exp, some spirit, this you should do every day.

40-59: Lots and lots of grinding, you will have to get used to it. Try flying monsters and water monsters because they give 1.5 X exp.

60-90+: I have not gotten to this point so I don't have anything on this.

PvP Guide:

1-30: You can't PvP at this level, only duel.

31-59: I don't recommend it but you can try, I suggest you stick to leveling up.

60-90+:

This implied that you always have Soul of Stunning, Soul of Retaliation, and Soulburn on your enemy to make the kill faster.

Physical Classes:

Blade Master: This class has low magic defense so all you need is to get Diminished Vigor to stop their charm and potions and nuke away. They might activate Magic Marrow which increases M. Def but it won't be a big problem.

Barbarian: Generally the same as a BM but with a big chunk more of HP just Diminished Vigor and nuke away.

Archer: This is the ranged psychical class, which will be a little more problematic because they can be farther than your spell range with Winged Blessing. Just Diminshed Vigor again and nuke away. The Soul of Stunning will stop them from releasing all of there instant cast skills.

Assassin: I have not found a way to fight these. Though their tactics is to hide make you bleed and hide again. You could try your luck and right away do an AoE, which does bring out an Assassin from the hiding status.

Magical Classes:

Wizard: The question of eternity. This is a hard hitting class with medium channel time. You should Diminished Vigor like you do on all classes, Disturbed Soul to slow their casts even more and hope they don't critical hit you.

Cleric: Easy. Just Diminshed Vigor, Disturb Soul for their instant heals and nuke away.

Psychics: It will be pretty evenly matched. Both of you will be stunned back and forth, so I suggest Diminished Vigor, Disturb Soul to slow them down at nuke away. this is probably the tactic another Psychic would have.

Venomancer: This is a hard topic because of the amazing versatility of Venomancers. Going to edit this later.

Skills:

The larger part of this guide.
In this part of the guide you will find the skills information like cooldown, mana cost etc. and how useful the skills are.

For new players, Channel time is the time when the bar with the name of the skill is being filled which is the preparation time, the Cast time is the time where your character preforms the action and the skill takes place and cooldown is the time you have to wait before using it again.

In total a Psychic has 26 skills plus the two level 79 and two level 100 skills.

Soul:

Note on this skills. So far what I know on them is that when you level them up the only thing that changes is an increased mana cost (just to cast the skill not for it to activate) and an increased range. I have not gotten to the Sage/Demon point so I don't know what bonuses Sage'Demon will give. Do not level them up above 1, otherwise its a waste of Spirit.

1) Soul of Vengeance *
Channel 1.4 seconds
Cast 1.0 seconds

A nice buff that deals 8% of your soul force to your target every time it attacks you, and also reduce the attacker will lose 0.8% of your soulforce. If the target has no mana the target will not receive the reflected damage. Nice PvP skill because it works for both Physical and Magical attacks.

Sage: No mana cost when reflecting damage.

2) Soul of Stunning *
Channel 0.5 seconds
Cast 0.8 seconds

3) Soul of Silence *

Sage: The silence time is increased to 5 seconds.

4) Soul of Retaliation *
Channel 0.3 seconds
Cast 1.0 seconds

Great PvP skill that gives your attacker the same negative status inflicted on you. Reduces damage you take by your soulforce and reflect damage to your attacker. This effect reduces your mana by 100. last for 30 seconds.

Demon: Reflects damage equal to 0.6x Soulforce.
Sage: Heals the caster by 15% of Max Health. ( I'm not sure if it means when it's used up or when you cast it, but my guess is that heals 15% of Max health on th activation of it)

5) Tide Form: *

Turns you into a mermaid. Only usable in water.

Increases your defense level by a nice amount which reduces damage taken. And increases swim speed by ALOT great for getting around in water otherwise not much of a use. Looks cool too.

Now that the level 79 and 100 skills are out, here they are.

Level 79:

1)Essential Sutra
Channel 0.5 second
Cast 0.5 second
Cooldown 90.0 seconds

An alright skill that increases your or a friendly targets flying speed by 60% for 15 seconds. Very useful for getting away if in danger or being mobbed by several people.

2)Crystal Light
Channel 1.0 second
Cast 1.5 seconds
Cooldown 15.0 seconds

A damage skill that hits everyone in a line in front of you. Slows down all enemies by 80% for 5 seconds. Which will basically stop them in their tracks. Good for annoying and slowing down everyone on the opposing team in a TW.

Level 100:

1)Sandball Clash
Channel 3.0 seconds
Cast 1.0 second
Cooldown 10 seconds

A medium - high damaging spell that has a 50% chance to silence your opponent for 5 seconds. Very useful in any PvP situation.

2)Stone Smasher
Channel 4.0 seconds

Cooldown 60.0 seconds

This is the Black Ice Dragon of a Psychic. Deals 400% of magic attack + 10,253 damage. Very high damage but downside is 60 second cool down and costs 2 sparks.

beastboyisbeast · January 2010

Demon vs Sage

I'm only going to list the significant skill bonuses.

Demon:

Aqua Cannon: Has a 50% chance to deal additional 4518.8 Water damage over 6 seconds.
This is very useful to make AoEing even more efficient.

Black Voodoo: Defense Level is reduced by 3 points less.
You need all the defense you can get so reducing the amount it takes away from you is a good thing.

Disturb Soul: Increases the channeling time by 100%. This is also useful because the channel time for this skill is 1.6 seconds, though that might not seem like a lot, the less the better.

Tide Spirit: VERY good effect that increases your critical chance by 20% for 15 seconds. Can be very useful in taking someone down very quick in PvP.

Aqua Spirit: Increases critical % of water spells by 1. Even though it isn't a lot, every bit counts.

Empowered Vigor: Healing effect of skills is boosted by 5% and that of potions is increased by 10%. This could save your life in some situations because of the extra healing, but it is always nice to have on.

White Voodoo: Has an effect that reduces your channeling time by 3%. This is an alright bonus, but you most likely won't notice it.

Land Slide: This in my opinion is the best Demon skill for Psychics. Has a 30% chance to increase your critical rate by 50% for 4 seconds. You would most likely throw in as many nukes as you could in that 4 seconds, or a Stone Smasher if you want to go for some very high damage.

Diminished Vigor: The healing effect of skills is reduced by 5% more; that of potions is reduced by 10% more. This is useful against all classes but especially Clerics.

Sandburst Blast: Has a 20% chance to lower target's Earth defense by 20% for 8 seconds. This is useful to make your earth nukes hit even harder PvP or PvE, this is useful.

Earthen Spirit: Spell Critical attack chance is increased by 1%. Just another bonus to your critical chance.

Soul of Vengeance: The reflected damage is increased by 4% of caster's Soulforce. More reflecting is just more damage.

Soul of Stunning: The fixed Stun time is increased by 1 second. More stunning is GOOD. But it isn't as good as the Sage version.

Soul of Silence: The chance of silence is 1.2x that of the LV10 version. A seemingly small increase in the chance of silence, but it still helps.

Sage:

Black Voodoo: Attack Level is increased by an additional 3.
This is useful just to increase your overall damage.

Aqua Cannon: Has a 30% chance to immobilize target for 3 seconds. Could be the difference between loosing a lot of HP while AoEing. Helps keep monsters away from you.

Empowered Vigor: The cooldown time of Health charm is reduced by 1 more second. This is very useful to decrease the time between hierograms activating and saving your life in a PvP situation.

Disturb Soul: Duration time is increased by 3 seconds. Just more time that your opponent has a increased channel time, which means less hits against you.

Tide Spirit: The channeling speed increasing effect time is increased by 3 seconds. Just more channeling time reduction.

Aqua Spirit: Water damage is increased by 25%. Just more damage.

Spirit Blast: Upon a successful hit, has a 20% chance to gain 30 Chi. Nice because extra chi means you might get even closer to a spark or a Stone Smasher.

White Voodoo: Defense level is increased by 5 more points. More defense means more damage reduction.

Diminished Vigor: The cooldown of Health charm is increased by 1 more second. Makes your opponent more starved of their hierogram.

Soulburn: Duration is increased by 2 more seconds. More time means more hits on your opponent which means more damage.

Psychic Will: The immunity duration is increased by 2 seconds. More immunity could save your life.

Earthen Spirit: Earth damage is increased by 25%. More damage.

Soul of Vengeance: No Mana cost when reflecting damage. It just wont kill your mana.

Soul of Stunning: Every 4000 Soulforce you have will increase the Stun time by 1 second. More stun time means more time that your opponent is harmless.

Soul of Stunning: The silence time is increased to 5 seconds. More time that your opponent is harmless.

Soul of Retaliation: Heals the caster by 15% of Max Health. Can save your life, but I'm not sure if it is upon casting it or upon it being activated.

Over all conclusion:

In my opinion Sage is leaning mainly towards PvE and Demon is leaning more to PvP. Try them both out because you could always change, but at a price.

lol there wanted in parties?b:chuckleb:chuckleb:chuckle

ForsakenRage - Dreamweaver · January 2010

Yeah.. Psychics are more of a solo class because of their high Matk and high channeling speeds. But nonetheless, they can be used in parties such as for bossing or... what not. And, maybe also include the skills with the guide? Kind of pointless saying "Ultimate Psychic Guide" without the skills, dawg. If you catch my drift.

Risingson - Lost City · January 2010

"Pros: High damage Nukes can easily take out most monsters without them reaching you. Not much of a need of potions or charms due to having high regeneration and not being hit most of the time. Great for early PvE. From my experience I have been wanted in parties for Vengeance and Silence."

I laughed. Hard.

I hope you're kidding when you say that Psychics don't need Charms and Pots, and that we have a very high regeneration rate. I must burn like 200 mana pots a day, and a 90k spirit charm lasts less than 24 hours.

Also, Soul of Vengeance is not so strong in parties, I'm assuming you want to cast it on the tank, but it will just get him to 0 mana in like 20 seconds. About Soul of Silence, well... The success rate of that Soul is about 3%, so there.

beastboyisbeast · January 2010

By potions and charms I meant HP potions and charms, I guess I should add that.

Dude not even a charm will stop the mana burn. Its like psys were born with the skill mana burn. I mean am lvl 58 and after 5 monsters mana is completely gone if you dont buy pots leveling is alot slower.

Risingson - Lost City · January 2010

And that differs with what I said how...?

beastboyisbeast · January 2010

there was a misunderstanding, I didn't mean that you wouldn't need MP potions, but that is fixed.

RedsRose - Lost City · January 2010

I have NO idea what the two of you are doing, but my high 7x does not need a charm and does not use a **** ton of MP pots either.

Yes they are needed, but in the amounts you are saying makes me think that you needs to use some regen pots or meditate a little more. Keep in mine too that Soul of Vengence KILLS your MP if you constantly have it on. b:surrender

I am used to Cleric's though that burn Mana constantly and the mana usage on my Psychic is SO much less.

That is true that mana usage on a Psychic is less, same with my old wizard. As for Vengence it does kill your mana, but in PvP I have found it useful to take out ranged toons even faster. Unless your going on a killing spree, you could just get to town and rest if you don't have the money for potions. This is mainly a guide for newcomers. Most people who already have played know that Psychics are basically fish Wizards and that the build is same.

I agree kinda...I say this because Psychic's have many more buffs/debuffs then Wizards. Also, just about every skill has a slow, stun, bleed, decrease accuracy, etc attached to the skill.

Also, the builds are the same if you are going Full INT from the gate. Mine is personally FUll INT with 5 vit that was there from the beginning. However, I know some LA Psy's and Hybird.

It is all in play style and getting to know the skills..More so the debuffs/buffs that are there for protection. And some of them are OP imo but a ton of fun and the reaction from people is epic. More so when MUCH higher levels do no damage to you and do not know how b:chuckle

beastboyisbeast · January 2010

Do you have any input on how a Psychic would do on a Wizard? I'm thinking that a wizard would win because of their higher hitting spells.

Yeah, I think I might have posted that before you got all of that in.

beastboyisbeast · January 2010

Spell checked some things.

Risingson - Lost City · January 2010

Well regarding PvE, having Soul of Vengeance doesn't change anything because mobs don't touch me very often. But I guess I'm consuming a lot of mana because I'm usually trying to farm/get the quests done quickly.

But I can only assume this will be the same thing in PvP or in TW. You won't really have any kind of pause and your mana will burn like hell.

That would be assuming your fighting a close up physical class like BM or WB or if you have a pet on you. Other wise Archer, Wizard, Veno, Cleric or another Psychic. The extra soul 8% of soulforce actually helps.

You forget that one wizzie spell would allow the psychic to literally nuke you twice and with black voodoo it gonna be deadly. You forget wizzie = POWER but low casting time while psy = mid range FAST casting time b:shocked

And yes a wizzie would win if they could get in their strongest spells in but i highly doubt my landslide would let you b:chuckle

Plus soul of vengeance and soul burn are basic combos basically wizzie attack and lose probably a 1.5k or less and u just do two more hits and its game for wizzie. BUT i would want to see an epic wizzie versus psy fight (still would bet on psy though). Come people make that happen WE WANT EPIC FIGHT!!!!!!!

You forget that one wizzie spell would allow the psychic to literally nuke you twice and with black voodoo it gonna be deadly. You forget wizzie = POWER but low casting time while psy = mid range FAST casting time b:shocked

And yes a wizzie would win if they could get in their strongest spells in but i highly doubt my landslide would let you b:chuckle

Note: This guide is not complete and probably never will be- a work in progress.....

Light Armour: A lot more survivability then the Pure INT build but at a cost of reduced magic attack. another plus of this build is there is extra Critical Rate from the DEX required to wear light armour. Will give more survivability at early levels. This build also helps with TW and PvP from the added physical defense.

I find this paragraph disturbing. So what if you have added Pdef ? Are you a tanker in TW?

Probably since the LA build can't kill anything unless they get gimped targets, throw out this build from your guide.

Anything that you cannot kill off before reaching you, you can easily kite it. Seriously, are you lazy or something?

Because if you are, you would probably die alot using INT build

I would like to see you fighting a lvl 90 (and above) mage (with all spells).

And pardon me, Landslide has a fixed casting range, which is shorter than your nukes, and pray... do tell how you to "blink" into range to cast that?

A wizzard fighting you would probably use stone barrier to boost pdef + earth resistance. So your earth spells are probably gonna be useless.

The moment you start casting anything, you would have been silenced and hell will be let loose, with you being the casualty.

Oh I forgot, you do not even have tt-70-90 weapons....

Pardon me... but you sound like a 13 year old...

Thats true Giodia, Wizards earth buff cancels half of the Psychics arsenal and leaves with water spells only. and also the AoEs have short range.

Talk about issues and no im not 13 so back off miss i im comparing a lvl 58 to a lvl 90 wiz. If you wana test your little comment give me proof that a lvl 90 psy will lose to a lvl 90 wiz whether be video or w/e. And plus THE CLASS JUST CAME OUT SO THEY ARE NO lvl 70-90 weapons the gm or the game developers didn't expect people to reach that far yet. I was born in 89 so if you cant realize am not a little child then may god be with you.

Please forgive me for saying this but you sound like a wizz that thinks psy are op.
Only wiz characters like you have no exploration in you or want a new challenge, you just want to be the top of the food chain talk about selfish.
It is a proven fact only wiz characters have been bashing psys.

I would call your comments uncalled for, targeting Mages in particular.

FYI, TT-100 gold weapon is already in game, as proven with a screenshot (from China I presume) comparing weapon damage range and the psys seems to come out top in terms of lower and higher damage.

Why would TT-100 be in game when 70-90 are missing? On top of that, their weapon seems to be the best among all magical weapon classes.

Given that full black voodoo raises your damage to a 22% which will increase along with mattk range, I do not see how far you can be with a crafted weapon.

I dont know man but Landslide is very ineffective in PVP lol. My first attack I usually go with Glacial shard, for a chance to freeze, if that fails then I kite. Soul burn's a good first cast too against ranged/magic types.
