    Introduction

    I have based this guide’s format on Nany’s @nany625 Bowmaster guide which I spent a lot of time reading. I am one char only Bowmaster and will forever be this way. I wanted to share my experience and hope other’s don’t feel they must have a mage to pave the way.

    Always remember, you cannot unlevel a char, it is better to not level than to level when you are not ready. If it means you buy another 200k pet speed scroll 60% and resell at 600k to make up the 400k you need to buy another int item to have 10 int for that 1 extra mp, you would wait and do that.

    Pros and Cons

    Pros:
    1. You don’t ever have to play anything outside of what you want to play, not even a second
    2. You can really focus on your real life, take a break from the game for a few months and remember to vote
    3. You are unlikely to experience addiction – the feeling you can do more in-game because it can get difficult to progress
    4. This is for lazy players like me, who want to play the least hours for the same outcome
    5. Each npc run to clear inventory is like a forced break from farming which is great for mental health
    6. coming back from break is super easy compared to if you have multi char and need to relearn all the key mappings
    Cons:
    1. It takes a lot of time, note this isn’t necessarily playing time, but its time from character reaching level 15 to however long for nx points
    2. It requires you to spend a lot of time in Free market, you need to rely on selling loot to fund everything especially early levels npcing items don’t worth much
    3. You won’t have a mule

    Understanding Currency
    When you hunt the first snail and pick up a meso coin you have started accumulating a currency known as mesos. After reaching level 15 you can start to earn another currency called nx, you are capped at earning 8k nx from voting every 24 hours, if you play enough you can farm nx from bosses or participate in events. When you sell nx currency based item such as APR you are converting nx to meso, when you buy APR with meso you are converting meso to nx item.

    Each time you farm in game you are increasing your assets, your tradable assets could be 15attk scg, aprs, ws/cs, mesos or nx. Your net value is the total of those + untradable assets like the 15k hp you have. Do you realise how rich you are just by having a tone of hp?


    AP Build

    You will need to wash archer since you are already experiencing difficulty levelling may as well mp wash all the way, 2 voting day = 16k and each apr is 3.1k which mean you can afford to buy 5 apr for mp wash each level.

    Personally, I only started adding int from level 26 because I didn’t know about this beforehand. I capped at 200 base int and mp washed until level 135.

    Farming

    To farm effectively, you need movement speed.

    Item speed
    pet equip ~10, scroll one
    maple weapon ~10
    bathrobe 10
    shoe ~10, scroll any low level shoe

    Red-Nose Pirate Den 2

    For archer this place is like a dream, rain arrow hits both platforms and the drops had great, by this time you should have seen enough shops to know the godly item’s value. I made a few billions here.

    • Mithril ore

    Zenumist Research Institute: Lab - Unit 201
    - very similar drops compare to red-nose pirate den
    - it is closer to shops easier to dump loot

    Notable drops

    level 135 +
    after you reset all your int, you have unlimited yourself,
    I farmed at blue kentarus for few levels, highest loot sold was 400m clean perfect red pirate blouse

    Whatever fancies you.

    Merch

    I will only lightly touch on this, don’t owl for price it costs 3m and you are too poor, owl only give you what’s listed on sale at that moment of time. You need to browse through fm regularly to see the price the item was sold, this sold price is the best indicator for how much it is worth. Remember market fluctuates regularly you are poor you try to avoid risk. Because you spend a large amount of time in FM you can buy items that are way below the market price and find bargains on int items you can afford. At the early stages, even saving 200k means a lot.

    For example, buy a 5 int wand for 5 mil and then buy a 6 int for higher then sell 5int, eventually you will gather enough for 7 int. This iterative approach should be enjoyable.

    For a detailed guide please refer to A simple guide to money making

    How to level

    So you are holding a 7int wand with all your int gear on, there is no party to share exp with you. Always have at least a few completed quests that are ready to hand in for exp. Use those quests to level up.


    Gear Progression
    Starting stage - about 20 int from equips
    Level Item Price
    8 5 int wand 5m
    20 10dex bathrobe (10speed) <1m
    10 6 attk Workglove 5m
    20 dex and int slime shoe CPQ boss drop untradable
    25 ragged cape do strangers request quest and scroll with 100% cape int from bubblings or sell this cape for 25m and buy a scrolled affordable cape
    30 Spiegelmann's Necklace collect coin from cpq
    Progressing about 300m worth?
    Level Item Price
    8 7 int wand 20m
    10 10 attk Workglove 50m
    10 int green bandana 100m+
    10 5 int single earring 50m
    20 dex and int slime shoe CPQ boss drop untradable
    50 yellow adventure cape sell ragged cape and buy a more int lvl 50 cape
    20 int bathrobe 100m+ depends on stats
    From here, you have unlimited potential
