Normally people would have a water armor for mosco. Due to those irritating water balls... But once you get used to it... The water armor kinda become redundant... Also dependant on your job

I was told that a Thief class would be most productive, so I was thinking Assassin

LK spiral can only 1 shot stuff if the LK is using a Nibelung. Sniper - I am not sure. Sure you can kill stuff at range but you still gotta walk to pick your drop which is the same as walking up to the monster and killing it.

I went on an Assassin Cross there. This is what you can use as weapons -

Money Making Build
=============
1]DDBP/DDTP + Fire Damas. You could use a weeder knife or a triple kaho weapon but you will need a fire endow .
Since , baba yagas drop cakes at a high rate - using a fire endow would be unwise - In case if you want to kill both Mavka and Yaga get a DDxx + Triple Skel Worker Gladius. Try and steal before killing for bonus .

Budget build:
==========
If you lack DDTP try using Triple skel Worker Gladius and swap between Wind(vs Baba Yaga) and Fire Damascus(Vs Mavka) on main.

Honestly, I think Assassin is the best class there. As long as you have decent flee, strong enough atk, with something such as a DDTP Main Gouche. How ever, if you wish to take down any mobs that come after you. You can also use a DDSB Main Gouche here). The second dagger I used was a moonlight dagger. Why a moonlight dagger? This is because of the fact that when you attack, you recover SP. Meaning if you recover SP, you don't need GJ to recover from the Steal skill. Also meaning if you have high enough flee, you won't need many healing items (for the exception of the magic attacks). If you don't like the Moonlight Dagger, just use a Weeder Knife and a Wind Dagger of some sort.

People have thier preference to how they want to play in mos. I have tried using a BS/WS in mos. It works really well... So thats why I am sticking to it :)

There are plenty of ways to do it, just use your brain and figure it out yourself. You can take essentially any class there.

I think i'll try the later. I can't finance a DDTP atm.

High Priest?

Sure, with the HP SQI you've got Colt Bolt, if you have a Doppel weapon that HP can wear you can get a fire endow and whack them to death, priests can heal themselves.

The best class it debatable, but Mavkas are low tier monsters, with the right set of gear any class can fair 'decently.' I leveled my Champ there when it was a Monk using combos, I leveled my Hunter there with Double Strafe, I leveled my Sage there using an autocast build, I leveled my Knight there using pierce, I leveled my SUPER NOVICE there using Firebolt, Assassin using 1HKO Sonic Blow. You could mob on a BS, AD with a Bio (Though you'd end up losing more money than you make, likely), Rogue can do the same thing as a Hunter and Bard (albeit less effectively, but they also have high success steal). A Ninja could using their fire magic, a Gunslinger could probably muster a 1HKO with a Fire Endowed Full Buster if they had a VO. Soul Linker works surprising well there since Esma has such a fast cast and they have Kaahi to keep them healed. Star Gladiator would do fine if you focused on kicks instead of heat.

Doing well on any map in this game just takes a knowledge of what works effectively and where.

you leveled your hunter there? I may try that out

Title: Re: Moscovia?
Post by: Eruruw on February 28, 2011, 04:11:20 pm

Yeah.

The essential weapon you need for Mosc is either A. for classes that use Daggers, a Weeder Knife, or B. if you're using a class that doesn't specialize in daggers, a KahoKahoScorpionScorpion weapon.

 In the case of a Hunter you'd want a KKSS Comp Bow, which is nice because you won't need a fire endow due to fire arrows. However, for any other class I wouldn't suggest using a Fire weapon over an endowed Weeder Knife or KKSS weapon, since you're essentially halving your damage output.

Furthermore I wouldn't suggest you bother with Baba Yagas at all.

Also use flee on most classes, there's no point in going Vit build when all the monsters there can be easily dodged.

sounds good. my hunter has plenty of flee. is there any card that allows steal?

Title: Re: Moscovia?
Post by: wolfthegreat on February 28, 2011, 04:27:40 pm

Joker? But I wouldn't use steal if I am a hunter tho...

Normally when I see hunter and sniper in mos... They just kill from a range.

Title: Re: Moscovia?
Post by: NNV on February 28, 2011, 04:40:08 pm

Hunters are range units.... xD

Title: Re: Moscovia?
Post by: wolfthegreat on February 28, 2011, 04:47:23 pm

And steal are not range... If you use steal and walk towards the mavka... You risk getting mob... And mob is a bad thing if you play flee build...

Title: Re: Moscovia?
Post by: Papercut the Madhatter on February 28, 2011, 05:16:05 pm

If you don't steal, you'll lose a lot of profit.
I'm using a SuperNovice there.

Title: Re: Moscovia?
Post by: NNV on February 28, 2011, 05:48:07 pm

I think I'll try thief for 30 min, then try hunter for another 30 and see which one i like more. I'll definitely play around with it. Thanks for the tips guys~ :3

I had difficulty leveling my sniper there. Maybe because I didnt use water armor there. I didnt tried harder because I hate losing exp when dying. Maybe now I can check how to survive there again without worrying about exp.
