It looks like they discontinued mith swords according to the wiki and replaced it with some lame-looking version called the skysplitter sword with the normal range of swords. Does anyone know what will happen to the mith swords already in the game?
Also, is there a chart with average hps for Paladin on each level? I've re-rolled four times now, it would probably help if there was some point where I had to be at a certain hp to have any chance of a good roll.
Skysplitter is absolutely brutal, especially since all swords except Mithril will now receive a 50% bonus on top of their already high attacks. Of course it doesn't have the range of Mithril, but it's damage is very high and that's before the bonus comes in. Mithril swords will no longer be dropped but still exist in game, much like keys (although keys are being brought back for purchase with Realm Gold)
Always hit level 20 before rerolling, especially since the boosts in between levels are so varied that even if you had 2 or 3 bad levels in a row, 2 or 3 great ones towards the higher levels could even it out or take it over (ninjad)
Edit 1: Ugh dying is some shit man. I was dumb enough to be rolling with Fey, Roc, Para Def, and Magesteel and actually thought like 2 minutes before I died "Should I be rolling with this gear?" and I then thought "Why not? I never die while rolling" which was really stupid of me to think and then a bunch of noobs swarmed by equipment and picked it all up and died and spread it all around and it was never to be seen again.
Lesson learned: Use average stuff for leveling
Edit 2: Actually you can kind of tell whether or not you should keep going to level 20 around 15 or so. I was at 16 and my HP was so bad that even if I got +30 at every level until 20 I would only have like +1 so I just stopped that roll short
Edit 3: I've rolled 3 archers now, the first 2 were average, and this last archer had between -3 and -6 in every stat except MP which was +5, Atk which was +3, and Spd which was +10 (wow). But 600 HP and lots of other crap stats really makes the +10 moot. But what frustrates me the most is that I have never had an archer with anything higher than +6 HP when a max of +95 is possible, what the hell is that?
