Phantom Skill Build IdeaComments MapleStory Forums : General MapleStory : General MS questions and answers Replies
Mmm... I see a lot of problems.
1st Job: You have Magic Guard down twice. Anyway, what about Haste? 2nd Job: You say those for survivability and have been mentioning decent skills, so why not Hyper Body? 3rd Job: Roll of the Dice is terrible, and Shadow Partner cannot be stolen. If by "Combat Attack", you mean "Combo Attack", that's useful. Combat Orders might also be useful, but not for damage reasons. 4th Job: Why Glacial Chain for a pulling move? There's a bunch and you chose the one that has a cooldown. You can't steal Advanced Combo Attack because it's a passive that buffs normal Combo Attack. Plus, why Dark Impale for mob attack? Fusillade for Corsairs will be the best mobbing DPS attack once it comes to GMS. This is my plan, though: 1st Job: Haste, Iron Body, random stuff 2nd Job: Hyper Body, Bless, Threaten?, Rage 3rd Job: Holy Symbol, Combo Attack, Combat Orders 4th Job: Fusillade, Rapid Fire
I want to focus on the 2nd-4th skill build. I should tell you that unless that you have a large Mana pool, do not get Magic Guard, it will burn over half your HP in one hit. Haste should be a necessity as Thieves are known for their speed.
2nd job, You can omit Bless if you're going to get another attack buff. You might as well get Hyper Body for some extra HP. You could also get Bandit's Karma or Brawler's Mental Clairity. 3rd job, get rid of Mystic Door, I honestly see no need for it. It's too much of a luxury. So is Roll of the Dice. Meso Guard can be acquired at 2nd job. You ought to invest in getting skills like Dispel or Magic Crash for efficiency. 4th job, Sharp Eyes isn't a bad idea, neither is Advanced Blessing. Res is useless IMO, I don't see why you should get Smokescreen when you'll have a high dodge rate. You cannot steal Advanced Combo Attack, You'll also have some good ranged attacks so you don't need Glacial Chain. Stance is a maybe but, again, high dodge rate. Dark Impale is nice for good mob training, even with the Insta kill effect. You ought to get Rapid Fire if you plan to reach top DPS. ItzATrapp: Rapid Fire is far superior to Hurricane.

I hope you read about Phantom and Explorer skills. There are far better skills to take than Demon Impact anyways. OcygnuswalkO: demon impact duh
Can only steal explorer skills.
I don't add Haste and HB because you cant get them as a decent skill. With level 10 haste, rings, and equips, you get speed so easily and Max HB isn't a lot more than decent. Also, there are HP pots you can use if you HONESTLY need them. I feel that if anything, haste and HB will just be side skills I wouldn't bother casting using the Phantom Steal Skill. As for Magic Guard, I use Power Elixirs which are EASILY obtainable Pap and Zak so even if it eats my MP, my MP comes right back.
[EDIT] I wasn't aware that Glacial Chain was cooldown, then maybe monster magnet, this is just a very little thing when I solo train and want the monster close to me. Also I have yet to consider revamp skills so any info on which to steal post revamp would be cool as well as the skills to use. Register / login

1st Job: Magic Guard, Iron Body, or Magic Guard for living longer (since you can only cast 1 at a time, I'd go MG)
2nd Job: Bless (Early levels only), Invincible (survivability), Iron Will (survivability), or Rage (Most likely this for damage)
3rd Job: Holy Symbol (Solo training), Mystic Door (Why get decent one when you got this!), Roll of the Dice (If the roll sucks, switch the skill out), Shadow Partner (Although I don't think you can), Meso Guard (survivability if necessary), or Combat Attack (Most likely this skill)
4th Job: Sharp Eye (There might be decent but the higher level = more critical and critical damage), Illusion Step (I'm going dexless so if this lets me wear gear, then I'm gonna use it), Advanced Blessing (Again, there is a decent but this gives more atk and buffs in general), Resurrection (keep it on the side, just in case), Glacial Chain (effective mob skill to pull monster in range of main attack), Speed Infusion (being faster is nice), Advanced Combo Attack (if it works, more damage for me), Smoke Screen (used when needed, same as resurrection), Power Stance (if Phantom doesn't have any skill for no KB then this would be nice to use), Dark Impaler (Pretty good and fast mob attack).
Currently undecided on what I will use as my constantly used 4th job. Leaning towards Advanced Combo Attack (if possible), Sharp Eye, or Adv. Blessing (no need to get the decent
These are my current ideas for my Phantom skill stealing build, I have yet to take into consideration the revamped Thief and Pirates yet, so if you want to suggest some revamp skills for my build, that would be appreciated. What is your build going to be? Do you agree with mine or tell me why you don't. I'm interested to know before Phantoms are released! Happy Mapling!
