Introduction
============
Ever since the faq is deleted from gamefaqs, I have realise that the previous
faq I wrote have too many mistakes to correct and it is a waste of time, so I
have rewritten the whole thing. The stats of the spear crusader and paladin
have been tested both in original servers and low rated pivrate servers. There
are a total of two to three types
of spear paladins and crusaders don't have much skill points. I also have found
out that spear paladins are considered so called noobs of RO, this is also
discuss in this faq on section 11, so lets begin the faq.

=========================================================
Introduction to spear type crusader/paladin and cons/pros
=========================================================
Spear crusaders and paladins are one of the fastest charecters in RO. Their
speed reach a maximum amount of 186 with no AGI and bless and 188 with AGI and
bless. The most good thing is they can reach to the AGI lord knight's speed of
190 with doppleganger card. With the gospel skill they too can reach a high
speed of 190. Their main purpose is speed and no defense is
needed as it is a waste of stats. This is why they are called the weekest
charecters in RO because they are week agasint MVPs and in PVPs. Infact they are
wrong, a spear crusader may be common but not a spear paladin because the
bounus stats are mostly invested in VIT. Spear paladins are mostly look down
because of their so called "waste of points", but a spear paladin can be strong
if it is built correctly, they should be strong enough to survife in monster
fight, WOE and pvp

-------------
Pros and cons
-------------
OK, the pros and cons are.

Pros:
They can go very fast using the spear quicken skill same as knight except that
knight use two hand quicken. A max speed of 190 can be reached if a
doppleganger card is used, or gospel skill.

Quite good in breaking cast including asura strike.

Have high dodge(not better than assassin cross's dodging rate)

Can survife asura strike by breaking the cast.

Can hit almost any high flee charecters with this kind of dex

Cons:
Many people prefer VIT and INT type because of the shield skills and high
defence and heal skills etc.

Have a quite low attack power because you have to up some of the dex too, the
max atk for you is about 300 to 400+ thats all I know.

Weak in MVPs(accept golden bug)

Cannot have sacrifice skill due to low HP

Do a very very low damage in pvp and WOE, even with the hydra cards, the max
damage you give is 100+ to high vit characters

===============================
The path to crusader and reborn
===============================
The path to crusaders is very easy I believe all of you know how to do it. You
will only ned to change at job 40 since you don't need so much skills.

At job lv 40 or 50 you can change job at the prontera castle and talk to the
captain of crusader here to acept a quest of collecting items. If you don want
it you must have the itens scared marks and patriotism marks with you in order
to skip this test.

Collect this items:

Set 1:

10 Decayed Nails
10 Rotten Scales
10 Worn-out Prison Uniforms
10 Daenggies

Set 2:

10 Horrendous Mouths
10 Rotten Bandages
10 Lanterns
10 Pumpkin Heads

Set 3:

10 Skulls
10 Nail of Orcs
10 Mancacles
10 Short Danggies

After that, they will ask you to find the suffering man at the underground
dungen of the castle. He will sent you to a place where there are alot of
monsters and you must pass through them, you
must not attack them or you will fail. Bring 200 red potions if you don't have
money of 100 white potions with you to prevent from death.
After you pass, look for the crusader at the church beside the king and
answer the questions by him, you must be 9/10 correct or you will fail. After
that find an acolye to give you a holy water or a priest also can and look for
the knight of gurdian at the castle then go to the waiting room and kill all
the monsters to pass, you have only 4 minutes to do that so be wise and bring
some white potions.

Room 1:
Zombies X6

Room 2:
Soilder SKeltions X3

Room 3:
Mummy X1, Archer Skeltion X1

Room 4:
Ghoul X1

After you done all this, go back to the leader of crusaders to change job. You
will recieve 12 white potions as gift. If you want a pecopeco get the peco ride
skill and go to the church outside and look for peco trainer and pay him 2500z
to get a grand pecopeco.

PS: There are some players in RO who hate the sprite of the grand pecos as they
are very BIG.

------
Reborn
------
This path is called the reborn process, lets see what you have to do.

Requirement for Crusader before Reincarnation:

Character must reach base level 99.
Character's Job level must reach job level 50. (All skill points must
aready be assigned)

Clear everything in the inventory slot. Rings should be taken off first
if you have, also unequip your peco.

Location for Reincarnation:
Juno Castle Procedure.

Find and talk to Metavis Seith (yuno_in02 88 164) and pay 1,285,000
zenny to proceed to read the incantation in the Book of Ymir (yuno_in02
93 205). After you have completed the reading, go downstairs (yuno_in02
86 14) through labyrinth to look for the NPC Heart of Ymir (yuno_in05
49 43). Ps: Clear everything you're taking such as item and money. (Put
the rings to the inventory). Proceed to the Temple of Valkyrie (Hall of
the Great Warriors (valkyrie 48 8)) after you have entered the Heart of
Ymir. Talk to the Valkyrie (valkyrie 48 86) at the Temple.
Reincarnation is successful after the dialogue (You will be turned into
High novice and you will receive Knife and Cotton Shirt).

Reincarnated Novice will be able to learn skills of Novice no matter
player has learned it before. After you reach Job lv10, change job to
High swordman (you will not need to do the test). Reincarnated 1st level
profession will be able to learn skills of 1st level profession
no matter he/she has learn it before. That means that after you change to high
swordman, you will automatic learn fatal blow etc.

===============================================================
Stats of spear crusader/paladin and skills(include other stats)
===============================================================
The stats of the spear crusaders and paladins are very interesting and the most
surprising ones

Crusader stats(final stats)

STR:60+
AGI:99
INT:1
VIT:1
DEX:50
LUK:1

The Total amount of STR depends on the left over stats. If there are still left
over stats after you put it in STR, move it to VIT for higher HP, the max HP
you can get is 8500-9000.

Paladin stats(final stats)

STR:71
AGI:99
INT:1
VIT:1
DEX:70
LUK:1

Compair to crusader, you have a more higher DEX now for the casting skills and
hit rate, There will be left over points and if there are, it will go to VIT,
or LUK for some reasons
The max HP for spear paladin is 10k+ due to the 30% hp increasment.

Other types of builts:
This are other builts by my friend and some of them are never seen before, well
you can try it out.

Pure devotion built:
STR 81
VIT 99
DEX 52
AGI 1
INT 1
LUK 1

Tips: Remaining points either add to STR(86), DEX(59) or INT(21),I would
recommend you add it to STR(for potions) or int(for sp).

Comands: A built recomanded for WOE use you can devote the wizards and
champions by taking the full damage and pump potions this is also the one who
stand by one side and do notting.

Sacrifice Devotion Build:
STR 51
AGI 62
DEX 52
VIT 99
INT 1
LUK 1

Comands: This is a hybrid build between Devotion and sacrifice, you will able
to cast devotion in proper speed, having STR that just enough to carry potions,
while having AGI for sacrifice to work. It's a combo where you devote partner
such as wizards and assist them with sacrifice.

Pure Sacrifice Build

STR 71
AGI 63
DEX 22
VIT 99
INT 1
LUK 1

Comands: This build will focus majority on offensive attack which is Sacrifice,
you will attack most of the time and only devote your party member when there's
no enemy or any interruption. You will be able to fight while having enough
potions to recover your hp and sp due with the extra STR.

Mach Speed Sacrifice Build

STR 31
AGI 92
DEX 22
VIT 99
INT 1
LUK 1

Comands: This build will focus on Sacrifice too but the speed will be decent,
player will need to use mastela as a replacement to white potions with such a
low weight limitation. It function about the same with pure sacrifice build but
will be more agressive toward it's enemy. Consume only mastela because your STR
is pathetically low for white potions.

Spear Quicken Sacrifice Build

STR 31
AGI 89
VIT 99
DEX 22
INT 1
LUK 1

Comands: Weaker than the pure AGI spear paladin built I made due to its low str
and speed but this deals 2k-3k+ damage with sacrifice but low hit rate. There
is also a pros and cons on this

Pro: You sacrifice with fair damage and high speed, for now it's roughly
200-1000 damage per sacrifice if you using trident and 700-2000 damage if u
using 3 hydra 1 skel main gauche. When new sacrifice formula implement, with 3
hydra trident you can deal at least 2k-4.3k damage depends on enemy equipments
and 2.7k-5k when using 3 hydra 1 skel.

Con: Can't kill GR, less shield skill, not really suitable for current patch,
consume only mastela because your str is pathetically low for white pots.

High Dex Grand Cross Build

STR 31
INT 99
DEX 84
VIT 40
AGI 1
LUK 1

Comands: This build must tag with Angeling Armor due to the lack of VIT. The
build allows player to cast GC at 0.8seconds with zerom glove and cast GC at
1seconds without zerom glove. Players are able to choose either 120 INT or 125
INT build by replacing the accesories. The main point of the build is to cast
fast and don't allow enemy to escape from the GC thus able to cast 2nd wave
fast to finish off the opponent.

High Vit Grand Cross Build

STR 41
INT 99
DEX 64
VIT 60
AGI 1
LUK 1

Comands: This is a build where you will cast GC at the speed of 1.2seconds, you
able to cast better damage and also having higher VIT. The build are for those
who cant afford an angeling, or wish to have more HP even they using angeling
card. It can be a very handy expecially for killing enemy around emperium
during WOE, but performance in pvp might not be as good compare to high DEX GC
paladin as it might let enemy to run off before the cast is complete. It's
advised to cast the GC when your partner is parrying with enemy so you will
able to assist in the killing.

LUK scythe death built

STR 50+
AGI 99
INT 1
VIT 1
DEX 60
LUK 50

Coments: Focus in using cresent scythe, but this is simmilar to the AGI knights
who are playing muramasa ctrical built. This built is similar to assasins
because it has LUK to deal ctrical damage. It can function just like an
emperium breaker becasue ctrical damage ignore defense. But do remember that
cresent scythe is hard to get and once it is broken by a Whitesmith, you will
not have backup.

Comments: Magnum Break has the fire attribute, so against some enemies it will

is handy when you are getting mobbed. Can use it to kill wisper too.

Provoke

Pre-requisites: None
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: Varying SP Use

Level 1 : ATK +2%, DEF -6%, 4 SP used, 53% chance of success
Level 2 : ATK +4%, DEF -12%, 5 SP used, 56% chance of success

Comments: Not very useful. Though it does reduce the defense of an enemy a good
amount at higher levels, and works on percentages, it also increases attack.

Endure

Pre-requisites: Level 5 Provoke
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 15 SP

Level 1 : 10 Seconds
Level 2 : 13 Seconds
Level 3 : 16 Seconds
Level 4 : 19 Seconds
Level 5 : 22 Seconds
Level 6 : 25 Seconds
Level 7 : 28 Seconds
Level 8 : 31 Seconds
Level 9 : 34 Seconds
Level 10: 37 Seconds

Comments: A somehow useful skill, it prevents you from flinching when hit. It
can be nice for fast hitting enemies. But to me it is just a useless skill just
for a VIT type.

Auto Berserk

Pre-requisites: Job Level 30
Active or Passive?: Passive
SP Use: None

Level 1 : Uses Level 10 Provoke on self when HP is 25% or less

Instructions: Acquire 35 Powder of Butterfly, 10 Honey, 10 Horrendous Mouths,
and 10 Decayed Nails

Comments: Lowers your defense, which is something that can be very fatal when
your HP is so low. It does raise your ATK a teeny bit, but overall, I don't
like it. I say skip it, as its more of a burden than a blessing. But because
you have AGI, it is best to have this skill on all the time becasue you can
dodge from enermys while giving them high damage.

Fatal Blow

Pre-requisites: Job Level 30
Active or Passive?: Passive
SP Use: None

Level 1 : Adds stun effect to bash. if the level of bash in level 5 and higher

Instructions: First get 10 Fire Arrows, 10 Silver Arrows, 10 Banana Juice, 30
Tentacles, and 5 Royal Jelly. Then go into one of the side rooms at the
Prontera Upgrade NPC and talk to the NPC there.

Comments: A nice skill to have, as pretty much any Swordman or higher class
uses Bash, and Bash lvl 10. A 30% chance to stun is pretty nice.  Royal Jellies
can be hard to get though.

Walking HP Recovery

Pre-requisites: Job Level 35
Active or Passive?: Passive
SP Use: None

Level 1 : Recover HP while moving, though only at 25% of your standing rate

Instructions: This one is a pain. You need a whopping 500 Empty Bottles, 1
Padded Armor, and a Rocker Doll. Go to Izlude, and enter a building in the
northeast. Talk to the NPC there to get it(the items had change due to update).

Comments: It is a pretty nifty skill, as it will reduce your reliance on
potions and what not by a small amount. Its a real pain in the ass to get
though, so you may wanna get it much later.

Comments: This is a useless skill but you can have it for backup, do remember

Comments: This will be the most important skill you need to up, holy cross
decrease the flee rate by blinding the enermy, and gives holy damage, in pvp
and WOE, this skill helps your guildmates by decreasing the flee rate of some
high flee rate characters.

Grand Cross

Pre-requisites: Level 10 Faith, Level 6 Holy Cross
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: Varying SP Use

Level 1 : 140% Damage, 37 SP used
Level 2 : 180% Damage, 44 SP used
Level 3 : 220% Damage, 51 SP used
Level 4 : 260% Damage, 58 SP used
Level 5 : 300% Damage, 65 SP used
Level 6 : 340% Damage, 72 SP used
Level 7 : 380% Damage, 79 SP used
Level 8 : 420% Damage, 86 SP used
Level 9 : 460% Damage, 93 SP used
Level 10: 500% Damage, 100 SP used

Comments: Wow, What a skill. A lot to say about this. First of all, the
damage is determined by both your physical ATK and MATK. It has a casting
delay, but you cannot be interrupted during the casting. It makes a cross
formation around you, and damages each enemy in it 3 times with a Holy attack.
A special caveat to this skill though - it also damages you for half that
amount. Heal is definently required if you want to use Grand Cross. Because of
this, you need to go full GC or not at all. You may consider using this skill
when you are under attacked by many monsters

Guard

Pre-requisites: None
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: Varying SP Use

Level 1 : 5% Chance to Guard, 12 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 2 : 10% Chance to Guard, 14 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 3 : 14% Chance to Guard, 16 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 4 : 18% Chance to Guard, 18 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 5 : 21% Chance to Guard, 20 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 6 : 24% Chance to Guard, 22 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 7 : 26% Chance to Guard, 24 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 8 : 28% Chance to Guard, 26 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 9 : 29% Chance to Guard, 28 SP Use, 300 second duration
Level 10: 30% Chance to Guard, 30 SP Use, 300 second duration

Note: This skill requires a shield.

Comments: A fantastic skill, as it more or less reduces the damage you take by
30% when maxed. It has diminishing returns though, something rare in RO. So you
can actually afford not to max this. I wouldn't recommend it though, its a
great skill. This is also the best skill to block asura strike.

Smite

Pre-requisites: Level 5 Guard
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 10 SP

Level 1 : 120% Damage, 20% chance to stun, 5 cell knockback
Level 2 : 140% Damage, 25% chance to stun, 6 cell knockback
Level 3 : 160% Damage, 30% chance to stun, 7 cell knockback
Level 4 : 180% Damage, 35% chance to stun, 8 cell knockback
Level 5 : 200% Damage, 40% chance to stun, 9 cell knockback

Note: This skill requires a shield.

Comments: A high chance to stun and knockback, but crappy damage. It is funny
to see though. Still, I wouldn't max it.

Shield Boomerang

Pre-requisites: Level 3 Smite
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 12 SP

Level 1 : 130% Damage, 3 Cell Range
Level 2 : 160% Damage, 5 Cell Range
Level 3 : 190% Damage, 7 Cell Range
Level 4 : 220% Damage, 9 Cell Range
Level 5 : 250% Damage, 11 Cell Range

Note: This skill requires a shield.

Comments: A great skill. It works just like spear Boomerang. Weight of the
shield and how upgraded it does improves damage. Use it to attack enemies from
range for a lot, then switch to a melee attack when they get in range.

Shield Reflect

Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: Varying SP Use

Level 1 : 13% Damage returned, 35 SP used, 300 second duration

Level 10: 40% Damage returned, 80 SP used, 300 second duration

Note: This skill requires a shield

Comments: Another fantastic Crusader skill. This skill reflects the damage the
enemy does back at him. This should be maxed if you can afford the skill
points. But if the damage done to you is low, the person will get a low damage
back, so if a spear crusader attacks you, this is useless aready.

Devotion

Pre-requisites: Level 4 Grand Cross, Level 5 Shield Reflect
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 25 SP

Level 1 : Can be used on 1 person, 30 second duration, 7 cell range
Level 2 : Can be used on 2 persons, 45 second duration, 8 cell range
Level 3 : Can be used on 3 persons, 60 second duration, 9 cell range
Level 4 : Can be used on 4 persons, 75 second duration, 10 cell range
Level 5 : Can be used on 5 persons, 90 second duration, 11 cell range

Comments: Takes the full damage the target receives. You can use guard and
shield reflect in combination with this skill. Its high pre-requisites makes it
pretty much out of reach for most however, you may
die because of talking too much hp.

Defending Aura

Pre-requisites: Level 1 Shield Boomerang
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 30 SP

Level 1 : +20% DEF against ranged attacks

Level 3 : +50% DEF against ranged attacks
Level 4 : +65% DEF against ranged attacks
Level 5 : +80% DEF against ranged attacks

Note: This skill requires a shield

Comments: A great "in addition" skill, as it really reduces the damage of
ranged attacks. Your movement is slightly slowed when using this.

Level 4 : +20% Resistance versus Dark, +20% Resistance versus Holy
Level 5 : +25% Resistance versus Dark, +25% Resistance versus Holy

Comments: Another great "in addition" skill, as extra resistance is always
nice. But due to the skilll points, I will suggest not to use this.

Comments: Great skill if you're going to use a spear. Same as knight except
that this is a spear skill. This is the most important skill you need.

Riding

Pre-requisites: Level 1 Endure
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: None

Level 1 : Allows you to rent a grand peco

Comments: Exactly like the Knight's skill. Spears do 100% to mediums with a
peco, and your attack speed is reduced to 50%. You get a Grand Peco as a
crusader though, which IMO is much uglier but never mind. This is a compusury
skill for you as spear do more damage on pecos.

Active or Passive?: Passive
SP Use: None

Level 1 : 60% Attack Speed when Riding a Pecopeco
Level 2 : 70% Attack Speed when Riding a Pecopeco
Level 3 : 80% Attack Speed when Riding a Pecopeco
Level 4 : 90% Attack Speed when Riding a Pecopeco
Level 5 : 100% Attack Speed when Riding a Pecopeco

Comments: Essential if you get a Pecopeco.
