Elven Elder at C Grade

[SinPalabras]

Anything new and earthshattering about equipping and leveling (solo) an EE at C grade? I figure it can't be that much different than it was to level my other healers/buffers way back when, but just wanted to check. At C grade I intend to solo with OOP SE & PP. At B grade the EE will duo with a nuker. Thanks in advance for any and all input.

Dragon valley and cemetery are nice spots to solo EE I guess, I was doing fine in DV with my bishop sub, about 12% in a buffround with just SE and self buffs.

Demon, Homu/Conversion, FotM Ghosts. Switch to Divine once your nuke power allows: higher max MP = more MP per herb.

Don't forget to buff yourself with Holy Weapon. In CT1, it boosts holy nukes as well.

The biggest issue is that you can't be recharged, that and the holy weapon thing Krissa mentioned, are the only significant changes I can think of.

I have a 22 EO i made and am wondering at c grade what fists will be good to use on one since i am gonna be using my AW's Drake set and i won't be going dual swords like everyone in game uses.

I had the cheap puma armor d grade and shadow fists on while in a raid party and it worked out nicely i think i only missed maybe 4 times.

Has anyone ever tried light armor and fists setup on an EE yet?

It does not matter if you learned recharge or not. Once you are an Oracle, you cannot be recharged.

C-grade fists (or other C-grade fighter weapon) and light armor for an EE are not going to be an efficient setup, neither solo nor in groups, so pick the ones whose look suits your taste better :p

Well fists and light works in d grade at moment and should work just fine at higher lvls if lvling on undeads, since i doubt the skill will 1 hit undeads every time and if it does that will be getting nerfed soon so i'd rather have a weapon that can kill instead of 1 that looks like a fashion statement,and with all the OOP buff pets in game i'll be only one using my buffs just like when i play my OL so in all honesty it's efficient for me :) just gotta find a good lvling spot till i can solo the road's at frozen labyrnth where mobs are spread out and no aggro like i do on a b grade OL with c and d jewls a c grade dagger and b grade avadon robes and shield

[Blauw]

the lethal skill for undead is great u can solo rift =)

[Eamonn]

Umm you mean solo cata/and necro's right cuz i've tried to get into rift solo on my OL and it wouldn't let me so i stopped bothering with 7 signs events cuz it's kinda hard soloing with that much aggro while wearing robes.

[Blauw]

have an alt in grp and go in without the alt

[Champa]

Not at c grade for sure (both because turn undead is a 56 skill and lots of demons in sub-70 rifts), but it's a great skill in catas and later on in rift.

Everything works in D-grade.

You don't need that skill before low 70s. All you need is plain old Might of Heaven nuke for solo, and Acumen weapon for parties that need your Trance/Major Heal (both lvl 56 skills).

and with all the OOP buff pets in game i'll be only one using my buffs

EE is not a buffer. EE is a healer with some buffs. On higher levels, noone wants you to melee, but some can expect your WW/HW/Clarity... buffs in addition to your heals/trances and to their own (often OOP) Warcryrer buffs.

just like when i play my OL

OL does not have MP-efficient nukes.

just gotta find a good lvling spot

Forest of Mirror Ghosts. Nuking in robes, of course.

till i can solo the road's at frozen labyrnth

At this level you are expected to either solo Wretched Archers near DC, or already have MH/Trance and join some groups.

Thanks Krissa for info.
