Ragnarok Online 2 Guardian Spirit

Guardian Spirit
The spirit of histories finest experts live on in their craft, protecting and promoting all those who follow. 
From cloths to keep the adventurer warm, to armaments to protect them, food to keep them satiated and medicine to cure any ailment the profession experts are needed in Rune-Midgards. 
As higher ranks of your profession are reached the more the soul of the Guardian spirit may be called upon to assist you when desperate times come.  The Blacksmith, Artisan, Alchemist and Chef of legend can be at your beck and call if you are diligent in your work.
To bring the Guardian spirit back into the world is no easy task.  The Guardians are summoned through a summoning ritual of creating a magical circle using the possessions the Guardian used carefully during their lifetime.
Once a summoning ritual is complete, the guardian is summoned and the caster is possessed by the guardian.
But an expert cannot simply achieve 100% of the powers of a guardian. Experts must go through a process called Guardian's Ordeal to obtain the full powers from a guardian. The Guardian's Ordeal is where the expert combats with the guardian in an area made by the guardian.
Only experts that have overcome this ordeal will have their powers acknowledged by the guardian and the guardian will lend the expert their powers.
The process of summing requires a huge amount of spiritual energy to form the communion between the expert and the Guardian.  When in communion the summoned guardian uses its abilities from its previous life to help the expert.
The ultimate goal of a guardian is to help an individual achieve their wishes from their previous life. That is why summoner is obliged to help fulfilling guardian's desire for borrowing their powers.
Once you’ve fulfilled the guardians desire, the summoner can either accept the guardians powers internally or externally. 
The summoner that accepts the guardian spirits power is then allowed to summon another guardian and fulfill the new guardian's wishes. A summoner that fused him or herself with a guardian can use and maximize the powers of a guardian at will.

Vulcan, Blacksmith Guardian
The greatest blacksmith who ever lived on the Midgard continent.
The same blacksmith who created the Holy Sword Jörmungandr that is known to rip the mantle from Vanaheim and ban Freyja forever. He never fulfilled his lifetime wish to create a weapon of the gods before the Day of Despair.

Clank- clank- clank-
Is this the sound of a blacksmith's hammer?
Oh, the memories...
I feel my body, soul and desire blazing in me once again.
My wish is to create a weapon of the gods.
Please fulfill my wish with your steel grip!

Veriel, Artisan Guardian
Veriel was the top artisan of the continent.
His future had no obstacles in the way to success.
Gevril who was jealous of Veriel success plotted a terrible but effective plan.. To cut off Veriel's hands.
Gevril planned an accident and Veriel lost his two hands, and with them his destiny to be the greatest artisan of the age.
Veriel’s life lost meaning and succumbed to despair and alcoholism.  However, one day, Veriel discovered Gevril’s plot and terrible vengeance was brought to bear.  Veriel was overcome with fury and killed Gevril with a dagger between his teeth. 
Before any sense of exaltation of justice was felt the world was sundered and aflame, the day of despair spared no one..

Whoo… whoo… whoo….
Kekeke….
These delicate hands are of an artisan. Kekeke….
I'm green with envy!
Those two hands…. Give me your hands.... now!

Honenheim, Alchemist Guardian
Juno is the magic city before the cataclysm. Hohenheim was the 3rd dean of the Magic Academy in Juno.
He built an academic system for alchemy the likes of which the world had never seen before or since.   His studies took him to new levels of understanding of the world, endless possibilities abounded, but he suddenly disappeared leaving his achievements behind.
The world was shocked, but none more than Hohenheim himself.  His latest studies were of 'soul composition of humans and devils'.  His unfortunate choice of a subjects were the Feared Devil Baphomet, and his own soul.
What he wanted is to fuse Baphomet's powerful magic into a human body to create a new human race.  As he prepared his greatest experiment everything looked to be correct, but the result was terrible..  As his soul was not able to resist fusing to the more powerful Devil body, he mind left him and only an unreasoning beast remained killing all his assistants and fleeing into the forest.
‘I could have succeeded in my alchemy if I had time to fix my formula'
He continued his research in hiding within the forest and awaited the Day of Despair without anyone knowing his whereabouts.
  
You... don't seem to have your formula right yet, have you.
How about letting me teach you all about alchemy
But on one condition
I want you to finish the alchemy formula where I left off.

Demeter, Chef Guardian
Demeter was once a glorious palace chef.  She held skills that enchanted kings around the world.  For cooking is be both fulfilling for the body and the soul to create happiness!
After endless effort and research, with many happy test subjects, she completed her masterpiece recipe.  And the day of despair took her chance to create her ultimate dish.

Where do you think the art of cooking ends
If your hands, eyes and mind set on cooking are honest
then I will give you all my knowledge.
For you to fulfill my dream of making people happy with cooking.

Ragnarok Online 2 Brings Noel Race on Sep 11st

WarpPortal announced to release an update called 'Noel' for Ragnarok Online 2 on Sep 11st. Noel is the first playable non-human race in franchise history. The race starts off as Alters. When reach level 25, players can choose to become Crecentia or Soul Makers.
Ragnarok Online 2 Noel
"The new options for both looks and play-style options is what I'm most looking forward to," states Jason "Heimdallr" Koerperich, "cute immortal devil-elf children wielding death magic, with a beautiful and tragic story; what's not to love?"
Alters are known to use melee attack skills as well as area ranged attacks. Their special abilities include debuffing enemies, various curse skills including those that increase damage over time (dot), and ways to decrease power of or amplify damage done on enemies.
Ragnarok Online 2 Noel
Crecentia are able to use all Alter skills, and can be very powerful. They can perform long range skills as well as do area melee damage through using area of effect (AoE) attack and debuff skills. Some of their unique abilities include using chain skills for AoE attacks and various action control skills that can increase movement speed or decrease an enemy’s abilities. They also have Deluge which not only increases their own abilities, but also those from their party members.
Ragnarok Online 2 Noel
Soul Makers are not able to use Alter skills, because they have their own set of skills that include healing capabilities and strengthening buffs by linking with different objects. Some of their special abilities include providing buffs and healing to themselves and their parties, using Deluge to increase the power of their skills, and debuffing the skills of their enemies while increasing their own movement speed.
Ragnarok Online 2 Noel
Many events are planned to celebrate the release of Noel. Check them out at official site!

Ragnarok Online 2 Wizard Build Guide Credit to lbluelalice

Wizard Build Guide

Credit to lbluelalice


Introduction

The wizard is a very BORING class. Movement is almost non existent, and most of the battles are fought with two keys: hot keys of fire bolt and fireball. The only area where it shines is it's flashiness. It's damage is lower than rogues, rangers, sorcerers,attack priests, but equals with the assassin. (In other words, lowest or 2nd lowest of dealers.) People know you exist because you jump around the map with teleport and survive random moments with ice wall. Most people (including me) play this character just because nobody plays it allowing free access to parties. You might ask, "If it's such a bad character, why do parties take wizards?" Well my friend, sorcerers and priests want the 10% int buff... and that's about all they ask you to do.

How to Max out Damage
*Fire Arms and Dragonology is a must at all times
Blast Arms - Fire Flower - (Fireball - Firebolt - Firebolt - repeat)
*Use Fire Flower whenever it fades and always recast Fire Arms after Blast Arms

DOT (Damage Over Time) damage (caused by Fireball, Fire Arms, Fire Flower) is where most of its damage comes from. However, DOT damage will be overwritten by any wizard who uses the same skill. When there are more than one wizard in the party, even the assassin will out-deal the Wizard, putting the Wizard just above the tank characters. (there should only be 1 wizard per party)

ie. When going against a boss, and the DOT effects of Fire Flower, Fireball, Fire Arms are damaging the boss, whoever uses Fire Flower will overwrite the Fire Flower DOT damage. (same with Fire Arms and Fireball)


For those that might have questions about why I didn't level skills that you might think are useful, here's a quick tip on why not.

Cold Bolt - This skill is used with lightning bolt and frost diver in the early levels, but it is outclassed by the fire bolt due to stacking of Fire Arms and Dragonology, even without the help of pyromaniac.

Frost Diver - This is also a skill used mainly in the beginning. However, being unable to freeze bosses, it is usually thrown away.

Water Arms - Due to DOT damage, water arms is not used. Additionally, 10% damage reduction is unnoticeable for wizards.

Frost Nova - Truthfully, this is a very useful skill, however it preforms very well even at level 1.

Ice Wall - 3 minutes is a long time to wait, especially in battle. However, 3 minutes is enough to use twice on a single boss. Anything other than 3 minutes is too long, and you might as well invest 1 in Ice Wall at that point. However, having no true survival skills other than this, it is necessary for you to invest 5 points in this skill.

Lightning Bolt - It is also like the cold bolt. It is very soon outclassed.

Firebolt to Dragonology should be self explanatory.

Pyromaniac - This is a skill often overlooked. It takes about 7-8 attacks to reach 100, which at that point, gives you a 10% cast boost. This might not seem to be a lot, and people tend to use fire explosion the second it reaches 100. Using this buff allows fast recasting of fire bolts, which in the end pays off more than fire explosion. (the users of this skill commented that "it's a skill that can only be felt by those who use it.")

Fire Explosion - This is (used to be) a VERY debated skill for all people. This does around 3000-3500 damage without critical hits and is seen as the wizards ultimate attack. However, even if pyromaniac was leveled up to 5 and Fire Explosion was too and Fire Explosion was used just before the 30 seconds were over every time, during the time Fire Explosion is being used, 2 fire bolts can be fired. Now the problem with Fire Explosion lies here. Each fire bolt at level 50 does around 1200 - 1500 damage with the right equipment. A single critical hit will do 2400-3000. Although the Fire Explosion does 3000-3500 damage, it is spread into multiple shots doing 600-700 damage. Unless all 5 hits of Fire Explosion ended up as critical hits (which VERY rarely happens) it does not outshine the fire bolt. As a matter of fact, even if one of the two fire bolts were to be a critical hit, it would outshine the fire explosion. Additionally while this is happening, pyromaniac would be filling up which is why many people invest points in other skills.

Inferno vs Meteor Storm
Inferno is a good skill, because it gives all the mobs a fire flower effect. Even at level 1, it gives the fire flower effect of the level of your fire flower. On the other hand, Meteor Storm is a skill that hits a targeted area, but is heavily affected by lag and also takes longer than fire flower. In the end, you do just about as much damage with either one. (even without lag) You should just pick one and only one because you're not there to take out only mobs when in raid dungeons. (gathering mobs is harder than throwing fire bolts one by one)
*It's also the sorcerers job to attack mobs with Lord of Vermilion, which also does double damage when the enemy is encased in ice, so hit fire flower, use frost nova, and get the hell away with teleport and let the sorcerers do their job.
