4. Suggested Builds

Hero


42 fisticuffs > 52 swords > 90 courage

This build provides thin air for attacking all enemies, falcon slash for single targets, defending champion for defense, and courage will boost healing with Omniheal and mp cost. Metal slash is in there if you need to level. This build packages in pretty much everything except a critical hit move. In the early game use boomerangs even as you put points in fisticuffs; you can always unequip the boomerang when you need to use an ability.

42 fisticuffs > 59 spears > 90 courage > 9 swords

The main move this build has that the others dont is lightning thrust, a critical hit move that can be used for metal slime hunting and high defense enemies. Spears also have a variety of solid moves that give it more flexibility than swords. Dragon slash is tacked on for the postgame. Once again, use boomerangs early on while youre putting points in fisticuffs.

83 swords > 11 fisticuffs > 90 courage (> 100 courage > 100 sword)

This grabs miracle slash and an attack boost in swords instead of thin air to focus more on boss fights. You can grab gigagash at high levels if you have to have it by increasing swords and courage to 100. Do not use skill seeds for gigagash. It isnt that great of a move but it can be useful in a couple of situations (Gold Boss).

52 Boomerangs > 52 Swords > 11 Fisticuffs >90 Courage

This build gets super throw and some attack power for boomerangs instead of thin air. Super throw costs more mp than thin air but it doesnt have the resistance issues thin air can run into. The attack power boosts between boomerangs are low so keep in mind that you dont need the most current boomerang if your finances are hurting. This build will finish a couple of levels later than the earlier builds so dont use it if you tend to be low leveled.
