Any Questions? Ask here
I've played Angelic Bursters since their release and I know a lot about them. If you have any questions regarding skills, equips, looks or anything like that, feel free to ask in this thread. I'll (Hopefully) answer all of them.
[header]F.A.Q.[/header]
[b]Q: What is their main Stat?[/b]
A: Their main stat is Dex, while their secondary stat is Str.
[b]Q: How much Str do I need for equips?[/b]
A: None. By the time Angelic Burster will come out, all secondary stat requirements will be removed from equipment.
[b]Q: How does Soul Contract (Angelic Burster's Link Skill) affect my damage?[/b]
A: It adds 50% of your damage range to your damage range. (Badly phrased)
[b]Q: Where can I read about her skills?[/b]
A: Feel free to head on to my friends blog right here: http://orangemushroom.wordpress.com/2012/08/08/kms-ver-1-2-169-idol-of-the-battlefield-angelic-burster/
[b]Q: How can I customize my Angelic Burster while in Dress Up?[/b]
A: [b]You can:[/b] -Change her hair & eye color.
-Equip any NX hat
-Equip any NX weapon (For the Soul Shooter)
-Equip any NX Cape
-Equip one of the 3 outfits that come out with her. (Outfits exclusive to her)
[b]You can't[/b]: -Change her hair nor her eyes
-Equip any kind of NX overall
[b]Q: How strong is she with and without fundings?[/b]
A: Without funding, she is still pretty darn gosh strong! With no funding what so ever, I could dish out 20-30k damage with her rush skill at around level 60. Then with 3rd job, she gets her Hammer skill, which combo'd with Falling Stars does outrageous damage.
With funding, Have fun killing everything pretty darn good speed.
[b]Q: What replaces her mana bar?[/b]
A: Her recharge bar! You get recharges for your skills with a certain percentage depending on your job or skill used. Each job advancement makes it easier to recharge.
[b]Q: What equipment does she use?[/b]
A: [b]Armor:[/b] She uses pirate armor.
[b]Weapons:[/b] She uses a new kind of weapon called the Soul Shooter. She also has a secondary weapon called the Soul Ring that gives free stats. (It also has pot!)
[b]Q: How does their Flash Jump work?[/b]
A: Think of it like Jett's Flash Jump. It's a triple jump, except that it isn't based on what directional key you're holding down. Its just forward, like a normal Flash Jump.

[quote=Lazaruskun]How is its hp/def/avoid ratio? I didnt see any skills that had any form of damage reduction or status resistance, is it just a glass cannon?[/quote]
Here's a couple skills you missed:
Affinity II: Using Escada's experience in battle, have a 100% chance of Recharge after defeating 10 monsters as well as a passive 40% status and elemental resistance and 20% damage increase. (2nd)
Power Transfer: Create a shield that absorbs 1% damage from monsters for every attack you do, up to 50% damage, for 180 seconds. (2nd)
Iron Lotus: Stand up to enemies' attacks with an iron will, increasing your Stance rate by 40%. Power Transfer's shield effect is doubled. (3rd)
Inner Peace: Through inner peace, you will not be shaken by enemies' attacks, increasing your HP, defense, and magic defense by 1000. (3rd)
@Snowed
I have absolutely no funding and kill things quite fast. They do a lot of damage with almost no funding, while when funded they're ridiculous strong.
@Darius12
I am not sure. Sorry.
Whatis the multiplier for AB Weapons?
Do they need alot of funding? or can a non/low funding suffice for good dmg?
[quote=AceOfBlades247]It has no requirements? So I can equip Empress Equips on a level 10 AB?[/quote]
No the Level Requirement still stands lol.
[quote=AceOfBlades247]How does the skill Power Transfer work? It says it absorbs damage from monsters for every attack you do, so does it absorb damage from monsters like Power/Magic Guard, or does it increase your damage?[/quote]
Every time you hit a monster you will increase your shield from 50% Damage Reduction by 1% "I forgot what it caps at but it's definitely not at 100%" and of course after you get hit the shield resets to 50% Damage Reduction.
@kloana: Alright, thank you!
@kloana: Okay, thank you.
@kloana: Alright, cool. so the equips are statless. Is that weapons too?
How does the skill Power Transfer work? It says it absorbs damage from monsters for every attack you do, so does it absorb damage from monsters like Power/Magic Guard, or does it increase your damage?
@Valkyriess: They do exist, but they are not mandatory at all. They're more like "Oh, I'm level 19X with max Dex? Might as well put this here for a tiny bit more damage"
I'd assume their empress weapon has been released, but I don't want to say anything. I don't own an empress set because I like hoarding mesos.
You also don't need secondary stats for Empress set.
@Ouhai: How would I know
Why are ABs even considered pirates at all? :I
@Yellondaz: i thot secondary stats still exist, but just not for most items, ie: the attack formula is still (4*main stat + secondary stat)*(attack/100)*(weapon multiplier)
also dont u still need secondary stats to equip empress gear (has angelic buster's empress weapon been released?)
@Valkyriess
They don't have a secondary stat.
@Taiyotejiya
A bit higher than average. Their health bar is twice the normal size though because they don't have mana or things like that.
[quote=sean]what is her main ability point?[/quote]
Its Dexterity and her secondary stat is strength.
I have a question about Pirates overall... Since Nexon is taking out Secondary stats, and Pirates are the only class that have 2 separate branches with its own primary stat, do their equips become statless and just require a lvl?
@rainmaker022
Yes & Dex
is angelic burster a pirate?
what this their main stat?
@Raskler
Well, think of it this way. Jett came out first.
@EllieSeyYo
Both fun and boring.
It's a fun class in the aspect that its quite original with its Recharge system, but its gameplay gets mundane after a while.
@ryuushinou
No worries.
@Raskler
Because Jetts dont have Triple jump either.
I fail to see your question by the way.
@Yellondaz: Ah! (Clearly I haven't done much reading LOL) Maybe I should... learn about this class before making stupid quetions.
@ryuushinou: Regarding Mistany, I was talking about NX, not actual equips.
Actual equips is the same as pirate equips.
NX Equips its somewhat pre-determined.
[quote=Yellondaz]@GeneralLee The soul shooter is 1-handed. Angelic Burster has an off-hand weapon called the Soul Ring. Essentially free stats and it levels as you job advance.
@Mistany No, they cannot. To change the clothes (Overall) you need to buy one of the pre-determined sets. They can wear any hat, face accessory and gloves. Not entirely sure about cape.[/quote]
So... they can't get the full benefit of a pirate empress set? What about shoes :O? I'm of the understanding that there's very little you can do with gear preparation prior to their release? (Apart from scrolls, and the equip you've listed above).
@atn30nguyen
There is no real way to seeing how much recharges you have. For example, Soul Seeker (The flying orbs) has a max stack of 1, yet you see people spam it. That is become after each advancement, it gets easier to recharge, eventually to the point where you nearly recharge every attack.
I haven't checked other skills max stacks, but assume most of them being of 1 or 2.
@Starrmanderz
As Improvement has already mentioned, they are dex-based.
[quote=Starrmanderz]are they str or dex base? O:[/quote]
They are dex-based pirates
are they str or dex base? O:
[quote=Yellondaz]@siraku94: I find it better than Ayumilove's, since my friend actually knows skills importance. I follow his builds on most guides, and I end up doing better damage at earlier levels than the others of the same class at the same level.[/quote]
Okay, Uhmmmm is there a way you could message it to me, whether it be here on basil, or email? :O I'd like to be prepared for this class when it comes out for GMS... I would greatly appreciate it. ^-^<3
@siraku94: I find it better than Ayumilove's, since my friend actually knows skills importance. I follow his builds on most guides, and I end up doing better damage at earlier levels than the others of the same class at the same level.
[quote=Yellondaz]@Valkyriess
As you advance, I'm not sure if its an event or not, but you get potential scrolls specifically for the ring, so yes, you can gain potential at fourth job on the ring.
Also, you can follow Ayumilove's guides, but I personally follow a friend's of mine builds, but he doesn't permit them to be posted on Basilmarket.[/quote]
What skill build does your friend use? Is it better than Ayumilove's guide? Would you be able to message it to me? Please and thank you. <3
@colin83
A soul shooter (New-weapon). Basically a gun attached to her arm I guess? She also has a secondary weapon called the Soul Ring which gives free stats, like any other class that comes out now.
[quote=jOMG]@Yellondaz
Ah alright. Thanks anyways! [/quote]
Based off images I've seen, her coordinate menu DOES have a mantle (cape) slot. So I'd assume that they can wear nx capes.

@AnthonysWill: I'm not exactly sure to be honest, I just use it and it stays up, haha. Never really bothered to ask how it worked because most people just told me it reduced damage taken (Which it does).
@Yellondaz
Sorry if this is a repeat question.
But how does the skill "Power Transfer" work?
It's one of Angelic Burster's 2nd job skills.
@jOMG
That unfortunately, I cannot answer. I don't enjoy AB enough to spend NX on her. Even if I did, capes are usually my last focus. I could ask around my guild, but I don't think any of my guildmates have spent NX on her for a cape.
@Valkyriess
As you advance, I'm not sure if its an event or not, but you get potential scrolls specifically for the ring, so yes, you can gain potential at fourth job on the ring.
Also, you can follow Ayumilove's guides, but I personally follow a friend's of mine builds, but he doesn't permit them to be posted on Basilmarket.
could you please make or post a short guild regarding skill point allocation please ?
Also is the secondary equip, the soul ring, able to gain potential at fourth job?
@JayShee: Oh, my mistake then.
@rainmaker022
It's an active, that when an Angelic Burster uses it, she gains 100% bonus damage for 4 seconds, while the linked character gets 50% bonus damage for 4 seconds.
what is the link skill for angelic burster
@xfire52 She has only HP. Her skills have a recharge, where you essentially hit mobs to recharge your skills. Soul Seeker has a maximum stack of 1, but eventually you recharge so often you can just keep spamming it. In 3rd job, I once got to 20 recharges in a row with just using soul seeker
@ramirofam Yes it is.
@AceofBlades247 The gameplay is very boring I have to say. Its a nice class, but really boring. Also, I'm not sure about nerfs.
Angelic Bursters are actually kind of boring imo, they are pretty slow to train too.
@Mewtwo Actual hair no, hair color yes, but I'm not entirely sure. I've seen one with Grey hair but only once.
@screwriod She is still pretty darn strong without fundings. I can hit most mobs in 1 hit on whatever I'm grinding.
@Anthoy84 I tend to spam Soul Seeker to be honest. It goes around the map by itself to hit mobs and it doesn't aggro them. If there happens to be a big mob, I use Primal Roar.
@AceOfblades247 Dunno. I usually keep the back story to when I can actually read it (GMS)
@Shakar962 Oh look who's here. The one guy that everyone dislikes.
@TheHighDevil That only applies to Soul Resonance and Finitura Fettuccia.
OT: What are your main training skills? I've only seen Angelic Bursters while bossing. Also, what combination of Trinity + Soul Seeker do you recommend when bossing?
without funds is she still strong?
Can you change her transformation's hair and how?
@TheHighDevil
No it is not.
@JayShee: Ah. They changed it then.
Never bothered to check again after my initial test. :v
@imtheman
If funded, she is very strong. Solo'd Pap in 2 seconds, Zak in 4, Horntail in 6, etc etc...
Soul Seeker is a VERY strong skill for bossing.
@TwixMoment
I honestly wouldn't nerf her. Perhaps 1 person per world will be able to fund her for her to hit every cap with her skills, and she's somewhat a slow attacker (Cept for Soul Seeker)
To be honest, she trains just as fast or slow (However you see it) as any other newly released class.
@BabyT
Just follow the link that Mistany provided. It's the one I was going to.
@GeneralLee The soul shooter is 1-handed. Angelic Burster has an off-hand weapon called the Soul Ring. Essentially free stats and it levels as you job advance.
@Mistany No, they cannot. To change the clothes (Overall) you need to buy one of the pre-determined sets. They can wear any hat, face accessory and gloves. Not entirely sure about cape.
I was just worried that if I hit the range cap, soul contract would not do anything at all.
And also, since you probably have soul shooter expert 30, multiply your max range (assuming that it's not 999999) by 0.95 to see if it's close to your lower range.
