===== Niru's guide to becoming a Semi-Pro SX =====

Hello everyone, my name is Niru, I've been playing SX for quite a while on this server. It's the first class I fell in love with and I went through the ups and downs of learning the class, I feel like my knowledge could help some others starting out with this class, since it's not always easy being melee.

But I believe this is one of the most fun ways to play, so I hope you can have fun with it too, keep in mind that I'm not a perfect player and some info on here might not work for you.

Early game stat overview:


^ Str ^ 120 ^
| Agi | 90-100 |
| Vit | 70-100 |
| Int | 50-75 |
| Dex | 80-100 |
| Luk | 80-125 |

Trait stats the same as late game stats.

Keep in mind that these stats are subjected to change and may work different on your gear level, later on you will have a bit of a slightly different stat build since you don't need dex because crits ignore flee!

Late game stat overview:


^ Str ^ 120 ^
| Agi | 100 |
| Vit | 110 \\  |
| Int | 60 \\  |
| Dex | 30 \\  |
| Luk | 125 \\  |

Trait Stats:


^ POW ^ 100 ^
| CON \\  | 35 |
| CRT | 100 |

Skills:
Skills mostly go up to preference, here I have my skill build which may not be perfect for you but always make sure you have the most importan spells (Enchant Deadly Poison Lv5, Research New Poison Lv10, Dark Claw Lv5, Hallucination Walk Lv5, Savage Impact Lv10, Shadow Exceed Lv10, Potent Venom Lv10)

Your go to farming skill as a SX will be Savage Impact, for leveling as a GX I recommend going Rolling Cutter.

**DISCLAIMER: DONT THROW AWAY ANOLIAN SKIN, SINCE YOU NEED IT FOR CREATING PYREXIA, AN IMPORTANT POISON FROM THE 3RD JOB**

Next up is the gear you will be making/buying over the course of your journey, keep in mind that gearing is not a race and you should take everything at your own pace, if you feel like a mid game gear piece is easier or more fun to get for you, go for it. This is just my experience of gear progression over the course of gearing up.

I will be skipping over Paradise gears, as everyone has the ability to get the gear & shadow gear by going to Eden.

You can use cards such as Boitata and others depending on content, but these are the two I use the most. HONORABLE MENTION for Unfrost Flower Card, use that until you get a +12 gear piece.

^ Type ^ Item ^ Notes ^
| Middle | {{:wiki:19118.webp}} Poring Sunglasses+ [1] ([[https://ratemyragnarok.com/database/items/19118|19118]]) | Best Drop Rate Mid, can go unslotted for budget and that sweet extra % to reach +25%! |
| Lower | {{:wiki:19147.webp}} Drops Balloon ([[https://ratemyragnarok.com/database/items/19147|19147]]) or {{:wiki:19095.webp}} Happy Balloon ([[https://ratemyragnarok.com/database/items/19095|19095]]) | If you don't have 700m to spend on a Balloon or are incredibly gambling addicted, the Balloon will do. (Comes in different variations like Santa Poring) |
| Armor | +12 {{:wiki:15186.webp}} Kafra Uniform [1] ([[https://ratemyragnarok.com/database/items/15186|15186]]) | Enchant it to your desire, up to you. |
| Shoes | +12 {{:wiki:22057.webp}} Flow Shoes [1] ([[https://ratemyragnarok.com/database/items/22057|22057]]) | There are a few other drop rate shoes, but those give you another good boost in chance. |

This is so far everything that I have in terms of gear, there is some stuff to invest in to try out but as I try this out I will update it here.
Feel free to correct me about anything you think could be improved on or changed on, I have many things to try out and will keep the discord and the guide in the loop of it. But as for now this is everything I consider the BiS you can have.

Thank you so much for spending your time scrolling through and have fun gearing up!
