Nightlords
they are first a great bossing job, but due to big bang avenger patch they can train decently too
many people worry about funding, because if you think you cannot play a nl unfunded, you also should not be able to play any other jobs unfunded
the amount of funds required for equips for nl or any other job is also similar.


1. Equipment
a. Stars
-you first start with subi throwing stars. It is recommended you purchase steelies, about 200~400k in fm
-as you become higher lvls you should buy whabis (lvl req 70) which are about 1mil each
-Ilbis are also good as they look much much better than cheap whabis
-if u buy nx stars, whabis are recommended
b. Accessories
belts are easy to obtain from dojo(do not if u can't pass lie detector) and crafting
dex belts and accessory dex scrolls and potenting recommended
pharaoh belts would be for more funded people
glasses and masks
-ones from event are recommended
-if not, use craft to make thief symbol and do lpq or crythe(?) for glasses
dex scrolling and potenting recommended
pendant
-speigleman necklace
dex scrolling recommended potenting not very recommended
Next step would be htp of course lvl req 120
dex scrolling recommended potent almost required
as you become lvl 15x+ it is recommended to change to low attack chaos spiegleman or chaos htp if funds allow
Earring
not necessary until lvl75
look for a rare luk3% with dex luk or allstat potents. These can be found at 1~2mil current prices

accessories are a good way to keep base dex low

c. Armor+cape
cape -luk3%and dex recommended these would be a little higher priced than earrings
top bottom shoes-also look for luk3%. a bit harder to find
shoe jump and luk dex scrolling is good if it is 3 lined
helm. Zhelm-15mil
to save money, lvl to 90~100 with pirate captain hat then do zak quest and zak with alliance for almost free zhelm
chaos zak helm or ravana is recommended lvl130+
cheap luk%hats are fine too but might have problems with dex
glove- attack wg or scroll on luk 3%+ gloves

armors are the base of most luk+

d. Weapon
since dexless is recommended to all, even unfunded
lvl10~clean garnier
lvl15~clean lvl15 claw or 100%scrolled (claw sells at osyrria towns)
lvl35~chaos adamantium gauge or maple claw 100%scrolled
lvl43~kandayo Att30+
funds for buying these claws which are 2~7mil eac. Can be easily obtained by quests or through other existing chars
lvl64~maple skanda. Skandas are expeisnve, cheapest clean ones being 7mil+
important to save money for it
lvl90~casters. Casters are cheap and good claws. With less than 10mil, which can be obtained by training and looting, you can get attack60+claw
lvl120~ try to buy attack 70+ casters. Ironically this low lvled claw scrolled with higher attack is cheaper than higher lvled claws with same attack

the equipments were based on the assumption that you are a non Korean foreigner with a pre existing character but not much funds, and also for someone who does not buy nx
when you have money for upgrades, 1st would be to upgrade claw
2nd would be glove if lower than attack 6
3rd earrings
4th armor and pendant
5th accessories

2. Skills
1st job 61sp points
first max keen eyes and lucky seven

4th job

3. Training grounds
lvl1~10 tutorial on maple island
lvl10~13 thief's elementary quests
13~21-blue ribbon pigs
21~30 golem mini dungeon or mushmon/blue/zombi mushmon if u happen to be playing when it's late night-morning in Korea
30~51 cpq
30~mushking quests(can gain scrolls from infinite killing ambassador(?) ,attack1 glove, useful medal)
37~kernimg square manequins and CDs when u can 1hit kill
50~kapa drakes or Trojans
57~robos
65~plateons
60~80 dual raid party quest (ghost ship) or ppq
70~85 mixed combination of sahel1.2 b3,b1 and sand dwarves due to hackers and maps not being available
best is sahel2 then sand dwarves and b1 at lvl77~
85~90 c1 c2 b1 b2
90~103 c1 c2 however saitis(ghost mobs at mini map in middle of c2)
103~120 dark rashes are good however unfortunately 2~7 hackers per map 24/7 so pirates 1/2/minidungeon
lvl110~ lhc party or dual pirates
116~lhc/dual pirate/master death teddiess<good source of money
120~lhc and ludi mobs
130~ lhc ludi also can try lycanthropes for ilbis, but Vikings would be better for ilbis
140~lhc time temple exploration
160~lhc time temple
165~lhc and if equip is decent in Korean standards, then time temple future road
till200


4. ABILITY Points
first start with dex25 rest to luk
if UA, the start with 4dex rest to luk
dexless until u get zhelm and lvl 90+
lvl 90 casters' dex req is 130, craven is 140
calculate how much dex u have, then add dex as necessary
remember to use dex accessory scrolls to keep base dex low as possible
after u have set dex to 130, base dex should be around 50~80. do not raise more than10, as htp gives dex22

-/-Bossing
1.dojo - do not attempt if u cannot write in korean
dojo gives belts and can be used for exp during lvl30~100 if u are bored but don't expect much
2.field bosses
examples:mushmom Zeno kingclang seraph jr balrog
after bigbang patch, scrolls that drop have been replaced to mostly bad scrolls, so except jr balrog almost no field boss is worth fighting other than for fun
3. Pianus manon Griffey
-these are field bosses, but well..more bosslike
pianus- recommend for lvl110+ Hell lot of hp, should take more than 30mins to solo for lvl 110~120hermit
manon Griffey lvl120+
however regeneration time for these mobs is quite long and you have lots of competitors
4. Papulatus
this is probably the first summon boss that you can solo
quest starts at lvl 120
exp is quite good for lvl120~140 about 1.6~1.7mil exp per papulatus with 1.2x exp
max 2papulatus summons allowed for every 24hours
for nightlords.. Summon, then back up to right side, break orb, then attack
pap should go toward left side, keep yourself no further than about 1inch left from the center in order to avoid stun and buff cancellation
papulatus has less hp than pianus
at lvl125~140, papulatus takes 3~10minutes for nightlord depending on range and skills

5.zakum
the reason that it is recommended u get ravanaor chzhelm is to sell zhelme
1 non korean speaking viper was able to do this, so it is probably possible
first do zak quest, if u don't know how to, use quest help in ellinforest.com
need 1 eye of fire to enter and 5 expedition members over lvl50
need 1 eye of fire per expedition to summon zakum
for nightlords, kill First 2 bottom left arms, then 2 bottom right arms then 2 top right arms then 2top left arms
for body, just go to left side and attack
it is recommended to use dark flare in middle during arm and in front of zak body at body
NL with clean range about ~16000. Can solo zak

6. Horntail(recommended lvl 160+)
NL WIth clean range ~40,000 and boss attack 30% can solo ht.,
well
first to enter, u need 6 expedition members who all did ht quest, and 1 person who did the leader quest (결사대원?quest)
first kill fake heads, then enter to main map. normal hit the purpleish thing on rightside to summon ht
then kill... For ht, bishop is almost necessary because of seduce. Nightlords doing solo ht must bring those nx items that let's u ressurect In same map
hp needs to be at least 4800 clean, and darknightd needed

7. Chaos zak.., lvl150+
do not know much about it, but is similar to zakum but way harder.
Need about 3x the power of a regular zakum expedition to beat

hopefully... when we all lvl more and can kill zakum within 20 mins we will go try ht and chaoszak


Might edit this later, as this version is done with mobile device



also for nightlords in general...
1st job lvl fast
2nd job lvl slow
3rd job good, lvl faster
4th job training speed is still a little low because main mobbing skill, which is avenger Is a 3rd job skill and even with about plus 70%(?)dmg with advanced star mastery, it is weaker compared to other jobs' skills

pot consumption Is generally low thanks to high avoidance and drain

people worry about the amount of stars... However only 8~12stars is necessary
8 whabis will last you 80 minutes with shadow star lvl5

only time when you really need more stars is for harder bosses or for training at time temple with no bishop for a long time
