After a very long hiatus, ive returned, in bandit form

None of you remember me, and that's perfectly okay. The last time I played maple was about 1.5-2 years ago. I started in 2005, when I was in 3rd grade.

So anyway, i decided to come back. I whipped out the old account, and thanks to my good 'ol TB I have empress' blessing or whatever it's called.
I also have a level 95 UA sader, I actually logged on once to scroll some stuff and give it to somebody, but it all exploded, so now he has only empress' equips. nothing good.

So I decided to start from scratch with a new character. I made a rogue, and was planning to be a bandit, but went sindit for first job (so much easier). At this point i was struggling with whether or not to be a bandit, but I hit 30 and went for it. I hit bandit last night, put 1 in steal, 1 in SB, and 2 in mastery. ( i'm sure that isn't the recommended build, but i'll figure it out.)

So, as i'm sure some of you bandits started out unfunded, I'm wondering what's the best way to train, make enough for pots+ equips, and have fun, 100% unfunded.

Thanks!

Anyway, I'm in love with this class! Pretty awesome. So far I have my own build (feel free to critique):

Max Mastery
6 Booster
1 SB
5 FJ
7 Shield Mastery
1 Meso Guard
Max Steal

I haven't tried channel karma of physical training, but after I max shield mastery I think i'm going to go with physical training.

leve 42 atm Btw.[/quote]

Just make sure to max everything except Savage Blow (I know! Surprising right?) and you'll be okay

[quote=jimtothex]Wow, thanks for all the replies guys! I'll keep all that in mind. It sounds like I should be able to function with quests and tempest coins. Thanks![/quote]

If you don't know about tempest yet, YOU DON'T NEED A SECOND STAT. So you can go all out on Luk and wear any thief equip without needing dex.

them tempest coins and gaga treasure isle events, do them as much as possible. idk if its a thing or not, but every tempest weapon ive bought so far (3 of em) has came out epic. my dagger came out 4% luk +12 dex 6% chance for lvl 10 poison. the others came out fairly well too. kill 200 monsters around your lvl (exclude nlc) = 1 coin, stay on for 30 mins = 2 coins (4 for lumin) 3 monster park runs = tempest bag (chaos scroll, coins, and other goodies) do 3 party quests = tempest bag
and for gaga thing 50 star dusts = 1 star which will take ya to a place you can open chests (reverse gear, potions, scrolls, mmb) and then sell whatcha dont need for profit.

The tempest coin thing is a great way to start, sadly a lot of the box events have ended ... Just stay online for the windy gourd thing and get the hot time event items when AB comes out.

Shads are very fun but far behind most classes without much funding since we are very meso reliant both for gear and through skills that we use. Again, you shouldn't be discouraged by that - I can kill almost anything (within reasonable common sense) including Pianus and probably Pap without taking too much damage if anything at all thanks to Shadow shifter, the amazingly high avoid we have and of course the infamous i-frames shads possess.

tl;dr
If you play unfunded then you better be playing because you enjoy the class
