Introduction
This guide will explain the basics of the game. It will also include some extra information about the differences between each class, about PvP(Player vs Player) interaction, earning skill ranks and crafting.
Classes
Classes in Cabal are quite simple. This is a little overview of the choices that are given.
Please be aware these stats choices are to be made AFTER you have the requirements for your equipment.
Warrior - Relies heavily on raw power. The warrior depends primarly on physical attack and defense. Stat Choices - Pure Strength (rarely Pure Dexterity)
Blader - Depends a lot on their critical success rate. Stat Choices - Pure Strength (Wearing warrior armour and blades) or Pure Dexterity (The natural build for a Blader)
Force Archer - One of the more agile classes in Cabal. A perfect support class with many buffs and has good damage output. Stat Choices - Pure Dexterity
Wizard - Known as the best PvP(Player vs Player) class. They have amazing damage output. Stat Choices - Pure Intelligence
Force Blader - The master of debuffs. Force bladers have terrifying debuffs that make them truly deadly. Stat Choices - Pure Dexterity (rarely Pure Strength)
Force Shielder - Similar to the blader, they depend on their critical strike and If they land a critical blow than the fight is heavily in their favor. Their attack power may be low but their defense makes up for it. Stat Choices - Pure Strength(Sword skills) Pure Dexterity(Sword skills/Magic skills) Pure Intelligence(Magic skills)
Player vs Player
So you're wondering how you can duel someone to show your strength? This is how, but be aware that you cannot duel in cities unless it's a Guild vs Guild(GvG) war. I'll come back to the GvG wars later but for now the PvP duel. You must be out of the city and have your opponent close to you. Now what you do is you click on them, look at the top where it says their name, click menu, then click "request a PvP". That simple! Now you will start dueling that person once he accepts the request!
*IMPORTANT* BEFORE DUELING, PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE DUEL STARTS THE SAME SECOND THEY CLICK ACCEPT, SO HAVE YOUR BUFFS ON BEFORE ASKING OR ACCEPTING A DUEL REQUEST!
Skill Grinding
Some people dislike skill grinders. The reason behind that is because this makes you much stronger earlier on which other players might underestimate you. Skill grinders begin leveling skills at a very low level normally around about 40-45, usually when they are able to equip their aramid and shadowsteel adept sets.
Below is an example of what to look for.
For our example we will use a level 50 Force Shielder.
Start with getting yourself a good set of adept equipment, I suggest something like the following:
- Necklace - Amulet adept (For your level)
- Rings - Rings of adept (2) (For your level)
- Adept Helmet - +3 Skill EXP or +4 Skill EXP
- Adept Suit - +3 Skill EXP or +4 Skill EXP
- Adept Boots - +3 Skill EXP or +4 Skill EXP
- Adept Gloves - +3 Skill EXP or +4 Skill EXP
- Adept Sword - +3 Skill EXP or +4 Skill EXP
- Adept Crystal/Orb - +3 Skill EXP or +4 Skill EXP
Once you hit level 70, you can start wearing bracelets that give skill EXP as well. You can also buy a epaulette that gives a bit extra skill EXP from the Premium Shop but I don't recommend it because it doesn't give much skill EXP. And if you have the money, you can buy blessing beads that increase skill EXP by 25% for one day.
Now that you have maximized skill EXP, we have to start selecting abilites.
I suggest you use Magic Arrow:
*ALWAYS* use your skills on level 9. This gives the best casting time and cooldown time.
You might now be thinking, magic? But I want to train my sword! Well you can. If you go to the Port Lux instructor when you're level 50+, you can get a skill called (Force Change) Sword to Magic, or Magic to Sword (Please be aware you need to be A.expert to acquire this skill).
So now your magic abilities will be granting EXP to you Sword Rank because of the Force Exchange (Force Change Magic to Sword). We can now start acquiring skill ranks. I suggest getting 2 to 3 magic arrow type abilities with the fastest cooldown and cast time because then you continue the combo while having the fastest casting speed. Comboing is essential for fast skill ranks!
Cezar's mini monster skilling list
Below are a few monsters I recommend to level skill ranks at certain levels:
- level 40 to 60 Wriggleafs
- level 61 to 80 Stone Golems
- level 81 to 100++ Mechzards
DO NOT GET PUSHED INTO BUYING TITANIUM+ ADEPT!
This is a big mistake. People think because titanium is more expensive and has higher defence that it will make you skill up faster but the answer is, NO, it doesn't. It's just has higher defense than aramid or shadowsteel. I've never used anything else except shadowsteel and aramid +4 skill EXP because I simply don't NEED it!
For Premium Users Only
On dummies you can gain your first 30% of your rank, this is an example:
Your skill level is 0/100, now you want to make your first 30%, so you leave it on the dummy while afk (Put a safety pin on your key to stick it down, so it keeps shooting the skill). Leave it automatically attacking on the dummies and go to sleep. When you wake up, you will probably have 30/100 - all depending on your rank of course. But if another person comes with 37/100, he won't get any skill points off the dummies because it's only the FIRST 30% that gives the skill EXP.
Crafting
Once you complete a certain quest at around about level 50, you get asked what do you want to be a crafter of. These are the choices:
- Artifact (Jewlery, Orbs, Crystals)
- Sword (Great Sword, Dai-Katana, Blade, Katana)
- Martial (Martial Helmet, Martial Suit, Martial Boots, Martial Gloves)
- Battle (Battle Helmet, Battle Suit, Battle Boots, Battle Gloves)
- Armour (Armour Helmet, Armour Suit, Armour Boots, Armour Gloves)
PLEASE BE AWARE! CRAFTING COSTS A LOT OF MONEY! I SUGGEST YOU DON'T DO THIS TILL YOU'RE LVL 100+!
This section will go into more detail in the near future.
Choosing Your Guild
Choosing a Guild is one of the most important things you can do in Cabal, have you entered the game to reak havok or to play peacefully with new friends that you find ingame!
