I wan to be ImBaaa

What can one do to get stronger? A nice place to start is from the hardware. Looking at the character screen, these include armors, weapons, earrings, necklaces, belts, gloves, boots, rings and of course, costumes and wings...

Armors and weapons are really too much to dwell on, so lets skip that.

For earrings, I'd go for Hope of Argus for melee chars, Will of Argus for sct/magic users and Silver earrings for range chars. Farm Magical Amethyst/Liquified Gas from Tierra or Arsene's Warehouse.

For necklaces,
Cut Mental Resistance necklace recipes drops in Tierra, Occulta Fortress, Underground Cave and Cabeza.
Cut Physical and Fire Resistance necklace recipes drops in Capybara Plantation.
Cut Fire and Lightning Resistance necklace recipes drops in Ferrucio Wall
Cut Ice and Shot Resistance necklace recipes drop in Scorching Plateau
Well, you may be wondering how to get those enhanced resistance necklaces since abs only has some of the types... there's a hunter that came in town recently with some exotic enhanced necklaces to sell and he got some griffon feathers stuck on his boots... rumors also of hunters getting these recipes from Vergo and Rafflesia.

For belts, Garim's belts the choice for the wealthy, alternatively,
HQ Metal belt recipes drops from bahamas swamp maps or the plains of Ice Wiz Tower
HQ belt or leather belt recipes drops in Isle of Fire or Katovic/Frozen plains

For gloves and boots, most will go for veteran class ones that can obtained from Arsene's raid or mobs in Sacred Dungeon. But there has been talk of Artisan class level, for that, try the mobs within the Ice Wizard's Tower.

Rings, well they drop from boxes ... and of cos rarely, from mobs. Rumors has it though that the thieves of Topolo are really rich and most of them own rings... Rings can also be robbed from Dilos Lamtern of the Arenas.

Wings often adorn the backs of veteran pioneers, especially those that splurges on wing coupons. Few pioneers however makes use of costumes with stats. Well, probably cos most are poor as a church mouse like me...

Then there's also the software, stances, special team bonuses, buffs ... ok, maybe another day. Lisa's wild boar roast is almost ready and waiting...
