Hi. I'm currently a lvl 21 Chinese male pure STR Glavier, and I don't know which would the the most appropriate job for me. I tried trader and got killed even before getting out of Jangan, and lost all of my money I left the traders guild and now I have to wait 7 days to join another job. I would like some recommendations to chose my job after these 7 days, taking into account my build (Chinese pure STR Glavier)

Ouch that sucks.
Yeah you shouldnt try anything more than a 1 star trade before lvl 60.
But I say you should be a trader. Its a great way to earn some money.
Remember to only do 1 star trades so other thieves can't get you.
I would recommend reading this:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=88646&p=1141106&hilit=trader+guide#p1141106

Oh well, I read that and now I know why I got killed so easily (Was a 2 stars trade ¬¬). I only have three questions:

• What lvl are the npc thieves that will appear near me? Will I be able to take them?
• What do I do if I have to cross a zone with monsters higher than me? Taking into account that I'll only be lvl 22-23 for when I can become a trader again...
• I have seen traders that don't ride their horses/camels, the walk in front of them. How do I do that?

Thanks a lot for answering these. I would also like to hear some pros and cons for other jobs

Your level.


Two things you can do.
1. Load up on pet hp pots, hop onto your pet
2. Weave around them, hop onto your pet

There is a button that comes up that allows you to dismount and mount your pet. It will come up on top of your skill bar after you summon your pet.
It will be right next to the blue button saying terminate.

All I can say are pros about thieving but thats completely biased so I wont bother mentioning that part. I'll let someone else discuss that part.

Ok, thanks a lot for all the information on merchant. I still have 6 days more until I can choose a job, so I'm still waiting for other people to agree that i have to be a trader, or to suggest something different to me

u get ownd by high lvls as low lvl thief or hunter, go trader

+1, stay trader until you're a higher level. Even then, you might still want to stay a trader.

Well, It's good to know it. I can't wait for these 7 days to pass so I can make my first trade run (And make sure it's only 1 star!)

6 days? You can reach 30+ by that time. And I would stay focus on grinding. Trader is good but gaining more levels is much better. When I moved to pacific I focus myself on grinding and less jobbing. If you're 52+ at least you can choose whatever job you want. Grind now and enjoy later.
