A few questions on Thf equip

[Evil Knight]

Ok so far im loving thf(SA all the way) but there are some pretty pricey items Leaping boots Emp hairpin.

I was wondering if i could wait until arounf lvl 33 to camp these for 2 reasons( could i camp The Emperor at this lvl?)
1) i can do ranger quest
2) That is about the time to get out of khazam( i think last char stopped at 30)

I also dont like those stupid +1 dex rings at lvl 14
Im gonna get them( i have the gil waiting when i log on) but they cost about 19k more for just 1 extra dex. Kinda sux.
Anyway lately ive been using Str rings(not +1) then switching in dex rings for SA. I was wondering if i should continue this or is it a waste of time if i dont get +1s?

Thanx in advance for any replies:spin: :spin:

bah, don't bust your chops trying to get LL boots or the E-pin. They are quite nice, but not critical items (btw, can't take VE at 33).

your gear swap on rings is a nice touch. I would keep doing that. Get the +1 rings if you can afford it, not too terrible if you don't.

Thank you.

So instead of the Leaping Boots and Emp hairpin should i just get
the noct set(merc cap body and belt) instead?

[neighbortaru]

iirc only the noct legs have any benefit for thieves, but most definately get Merc Cpt doublet and belt. Fill out the rest of your slots with gear that gives bonuses to DEX > AGI > STR > ATTK/ACC.

could you give me any suggestions on equip?

Up until 30 all you really need is DEX for SA and STR or ATK for damage.

Head is pretty much anything til emp pin, or at 30 Merc Capt Headgear or Noct Beret.

Gloves - Grab a pair of battle gloves for acc

Neck - Buy a spike necklace at lv 21

Earrings - At 16 and 21 get BOne and Beetle earrings (+1) respectively.

Body - Not much in the way of body armor, wear Merc Capt at 30, just get like Beetle next then Merc Capt

Rings - keep up what you're doing

Back - Nomad's mantle is 24? i think... i cant remember exactly. It comes in handy later on after you get Trick Attack but you dont need it right away.

Waist - Get the Merc Capt Belt as said

Feet - Leaping Boots are my choice here and obviously the most expensive for your boots. Other than these there are some Evasion+ and Agi+ items for feet.


Also your RSE (Race Specific Equipment) gives nice STR bonuses so you can use that in some of those slots. STR isnt a multiplier of SA but it will help the damage.

EDIT: Oh, go here: http://mysterytour.web.infoseek.co.j.../us/index.html I usually plan out equipment using that equipment database
