[ASK] Earth Tower, why special build is required for this mode?

tank with high level Swash Buckling

cleric : c2/c3 cleric with dps class ( Sadhu PD Krivis druid )

DPS is important in tower even if you are a healer

c2/c3 cleric c3 paladin BARRIER IS AMAZING IN TOWER

wiz : high aoe damage :such as wiz3 - element-3 -warlock

strong cc : linker C2 or FrostMage C3

Chronomancer also do great in tower , but need more DPS class to match

archer : Cannoneer seens a good aoe dps

Musketeer need linker’s Joint Penalty

just be careful with the monsters that can stole your magic circles… they can stole even the paladin barrier, heals, etc ^^

off topic but what class outfit is he wearing? (the one who’s recording)

This stuff happens on every MMO.

Elite parties get to do the most complicated stuff.
Back in Lineage 2 (yes, once again) parties of archers and nukers were always fighting for the first place, be it at PvP or raids.

If you were an assassin or a gladiator, you know, duelist classes, you were most likely ending up in a mixture of different non-elite classes.

When you choose a class, you are not just picking skills and fighting mechanics, but also your advantages.

Some classes have a lot of single-target hard CC or heavy damage.
Those are duelist.

Some classes have a lot of massive CC while not reaching a high degree of damage. Those are control crowd classes, like supports that harm the enemy instead of increasing the stats of your group.

Some of the best compositions to do difficult tasks includes:

60% of damage dealers (be it AoE or single target, depending on the objective)
20% of support classes.
20% of tanks.

Not saying that if you are not included into those classes you won’t ever fight there, but if a guild tries to do it, they’ll arrange their raiding group the best way possible.

If you are aiming to do elite raids, you can build that way.
If you want to be a duelist and have the edge on every 1v1 PvP, you can aim that way too.

It’s up to you.

It’s also a fact that most supports and tanks will always find a free spot for most of the elite activities.

As for me, i’ll try to be a mix in between of damage dealer with a tank, that way i’ll be able to defend myself and also have enough utility to survive, I won’t be that useful in a group, but that’s how I wanted it.
Still, it’ll be my first serious build, i might just fail and have to create a new character, but that’s okay, being able to fail horribly is also part of the fun.

Don’t know, but since it’s a wiz3/ele3/linker it sure as hell isn’t a class costume.

Prob cash shop.

I just hope Plague Doctor is still good here because I’m more end game PvE-focused.

Asking a question here : isn’t it better to lure one mob one by one to kill, rather than luring all at once by using AoE skill? Since in ragnarok, boss are hard to deal with, let alone facing boss + masses mobs.

There’s a (low)time limit to kill 150ish mobs.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems like the best cleric combo would be Barrier + Safety Wall, which would basically nullify damage to the whole party.

It is for the most part, till mobs that have Thaumaturge’s reversi skill start appearing.

As far as I read here comments here it seems like full DPS swordie aren’t that indemand in Earth Tower, am I right?

know any videos/webm/gifs of players that completed earth tower? like the last floors? for people to make strategies @Cathexis

The dungeon isn’t complicated, or hard.

It’s just that every mob hits for 33% of your health and they spawn a ton.

All you need is Pardoner’s scroll for the Paladin shield. That’s it.

All classes can do it. Swashbuckling Cata’s can taunt and run around if you want, no need though.

Here’s all the loot you can get from the tower: https://tos.neet.tv/items?q=Lolopanther

Like everything, as soon as new content comes out Earth Tower just gets replaced and forgotten.

It’s just one instance.

You don’t have to do it. It’s just something to keep you entertained till new stuff comes out.

By god do NOT build your characters surrounding one instance.

It has been cleared already by many.

how many floors r there in total ?

Who more viable in ET linker c3 or pyro c3?
