Enhancing Guide for Atlantica

2010-07-22T23:38:00.001-07:00

In Atlantica, at even higher levels (+7 or so), items you enchant will be 'sealed', with the numbers in red when you mouse over them. In this state, they can be sold, traded, and so on, but that is not used. Equipping the item will give a prompt about breaking the seal. Once you do so, you can use it, but no longer sell, trade, and so on. What will be sure is that enchanting again to the next level will re-seal, but not about all cases. At the max enchantment of +10, you no longer have to worry about Durability.
Also, there are currently PvP limitations on max bonus. This is currently +4. If you are really serious about PvP, you will probably end up spending significantly more money to keep upgrading your team's equipment to +4 of whatever your current level is equipment is. Still, do the numbers, try and upgrade the items that give you the most effectiveness for your gold first.

Atlantica Analysis to Build AoE Damage Spread

2010-07-22T23:37:00.000-07:00

In Atlantica, this build has a main major goal, and that's to deal a large amount of damage over time to every single mercenary on an enemy's formation. It accomplishes this through the use of Meteor Strike, Beast Summon, Deep Insight, Smoke Bomb and Chaos Wind, all of which deal a really good amount of damage either on impact, or over time. It also uses Mana Seal and its 3 ranged units to focus-fire away on the initial counter presented by monks, and even uses the Viking's Freezing Axe to put a good amount of pressure and keeping an enemy formation from attacking.
The secondary goal of this build is control. With an Archer, Exorcist and two cannon-toting mercenaries, there's the potential for opening up the front or middle line early in the fight and then keeping any enemy Monks and healer mercenaries from acting, ever again. Silence or Mana Seal loops allow for Combo counts to go unchecked, which adds up in the favor of the two cannon users in this formation. Buy Atlantica Gold that can make you game more exciting.
Add to that a large amount of spread out damage over time, as well as Freezing Axe, and you have a team that can switch to complete enemy formation control when the time is right. And to top that all off, cannons spread out damage in a cross shape quite nicely as well. The real goal of this build, in the end, is to successfully balance these two play styles, to control the battlefield as well as rain heavy amounts of damage constantly throughout the fight.

Mecenary Overview Guides in Atlantica

2009-10-10T18:10:00.001-07:00

Cannoneer

Upgrades:Cannoneer > Cannon Ace lv20 > Cannon Master lv50 > Goemon lv80 > Hero Goemon lv100

Skills: Smoke Bomb

PvE: 7

PvP: 9

The more 'pvp rounded' version of the artilleryman. The cannoneer wields a cannon main hand and cannon balls offhand. His attack range is any non-flying merc in a cross pattern. He has overall higher stats than the artilleryman, while it's main difference lies in there skills. Smokebomb targets all enemy targets to reduce their accuracy while adding slight damage per turn. This is extremely useful in PvP due to the fact that it reduces all of your opponents characters ability to attack without missing. Mercenaries rely on combo rates + accuracy in order to dish out maximum physical damage. This also helps scrolls to go off from your team, another advantage. In PvE, the same effect applies, but the effect isnt as significant as in pvp. Mobs are generally easy to kill and the accuracy debuff is, more or less, pointless. The only use the cannoneer would have in pve is his ability to target multiple targets.

Making a newbie guide in Atlantica

2009-10-10T18:09:00.000-07:00

Light Armour/Staff users: All staff users use magic and thus should be kept in the back where they can't be silenced as easily by certain skills. They die really easily too so should never be kept in the front row.

Shaman: The shaman heals you. You probably need a healer and only one healer so you will almost certainly take one shaman in the early game as soon as you can get her at level 10. She can cast a spell which makes you lose control of a row of your mercs in exchange for greater damage which while not always great for PvP, is awesome against PvE bosses. Finally, she can sacrifice her life to heal your entire party which is an ability best used for PvP.

Monk: Take a monk. PvE and especially PvP you will be sorry if you didn't. Really, I mean it, unless you know this game well and have very specific plans that do not include a monk you need him. You'll need him more at higher levels than lower levels but you still need to level him some time. He removes stun and negative effects from you mercs. He also passively heals your main hero every turn.

Witch: You can only ever have one in your formation and she is obtainable at level 51. She is the only mercenary who flies. The witch is absolute total area of effect devastation with a massive AOE meteor attack... if she ever gets to use her spell that is. It takes her 4 turns to cast her meteor and by that time, most of the enemies are probably already dead. The spell also becomes much weaker in the late game when PvE enemies tend to have very high magic resistance. She has some nice utility spells though like the ability to burn away enemy mana and damage them or replenish the mana of your other mercs.

Atlantica Viking Meleer and PvP Powerhouse

2009-10-10T18:08:00.000-07:00

In fact, Vikings have an assortment of abilities which make them almost indispensible in the early-to-mid levels(Atlantica powerleveling) of Atlantica Online. While they are not as tough defensively as the Swordsman, they do have the ability to dish out some serious damage on their opponents with their standard attack, and they are a decent tank in their own right in the early levels. Their keystone ability however is the magical attack Freezing Axe, which applies both a multiple-round damage-over-time effect, as well as immobilizing the units in the row on which Freezing Axe is cast.

These abilities make the Viking a very good choice for your party in the early game, but ultimately the Viking's low magic defense causes him to be greatly outclassed by other mercenaries in the late game. Vikings are too easy to kill in the late game, but in the early-to-mid game they are a good addition to most any build.

In addition, the Axeman class is essentially the main character version of the Viking. If you choose for your main to be an Axeman, he will have the same abilities as the Viking, but with good magical defense. This makes for a very tough and dynamic main. Axemen and Artillerymen are currently the main character in almost every current winning build in high-end PvP.

Atlantica Healing in High-End PvP

2009-10-09T17:55:00.001-07:00

This is one another place you are really interested to see some people's opinions. 2 Monks allows your main to tank very effectively, by utilizing both protect and SoP. Two monks also make scroll use fairly unnecessary. Two monk's will lack the healing that the shaman and oracle have, so you will almost be required to use a passive healer also. Another important thing to note here, which is foreshadowed early on, is how much vitality and defense goes up in high levels. While Shaman and Oracles are very effective in the mid levels as they can heal for half a bar of health, at high levels they will only heal about a third of a bar.

Since scrolls are often too expensive or a burden for people, you could be exploring this option more when you could level up a second monk to a useable level. You should hear any feedback from others who have done this.

Atlantica Spearman Stastical Strengths and Weaknesses

2009-10-09T17:41:00.000-07:00

The Spearman really can deal out a fairly high amount of damage, particularly if he gets in several strikes in a single attack. His Attack Power is substantial enough that it's likely that you'll get at least 2 strikes per attack from your Spearman. However, true tanking mercenaries like the Swordsman or other class C mercenaries like the Lady Knight, Spartan, or Beast Tamer will have little trouble withstanding the Spearman's attacks.

Here you can get cheap Atlantica Gold. On the other hand, the weakness of the Spearman is his low defensive abilities, which could make the class not worth including in your party. The Spearman is a melee mercenary, and one of the most important roles of melee mercenaries is to be on the front lines, blocking damage and preventing your defensively weaker but offensively more powerful mercenaries in the back ranks from being in danger. While the Spearman is able to deal out pretty good damage, if you have him on the front lines, there's a good chance that he'll die with a couple of rounds of focused attacks by the enemy, which then creates a substantial hole for the opponent to use to wreak havoc on your back rank units.

You could put the Spearman in a rank further back behind a true tanking merc to alleviate this, but those spots are better filled by the offensively more powerful mercenaries, such as the Gunner, Artilleryman, and Archer, or mercenaries with other sorts of usefulness, such as the Shaman and Monk. Having a mercenary in your back ranks whose only capability is attacking the front ranks of your opponent is not the best tactical situation - it leads to one-dimensional options in battle, giving your opponent more sure-fire strategies to use to ultimately finish off your entire party.

Swordsman of Atlantica Mercenary selection

2009-10-08T17:51:00.001-07:00

Mercenary selection will be split into two sections; a general overview of why you should or shouldn't choose the mercenaries available until level 51 and also a cookie cutter leveling guide. Good and bad mercenaries to level with until.

Heavy armour users: All heavy armor users and all mains can be placed in the front line of almost every build. That being said, you will need at minimum 2, ideally 3 (since you ideally don't want you main in the front line in many cases) heavy armour users by level 50.

Swordsman: This is in my opinion the worst mercenary in the game. While his high HP will keep your other mercenaries alive, he damages only one enemy and has no useful special abilities. While other heavy armour users can't take a beating quite as well as a swordsman, they can take enough of a beating to survive any battle from level 1-100.

The other heavy armour users have much better basic attacks and special abilities than the swordsman. Remember, while you are leveling you want to kill fast and a swordsman does not help in this regard at all. At much higher levels (100+) you may need mercenaries who can survive as well as a swordsman, but by that point you will have access to better versions of the Swordsman.

Don't worry though, the Sword main hero is just fine because having your main die means you automatically lose the battle so it is never a bad thing to have a main with tons of hit points and defense. The only time we would even consider taking a Swordsman is if I really badly need him for a formation for low level PvP such as if we wanted to make a turtle Free League team.

Atlantica Guide: Heavy Armor Users

2009-10-08T17:49:00.000-07:00

Spear: HP and Defense are both high, but not quite as high as a swordsman. Spear users do just as fine in the front row as Axe users. A spear user's basic attacks hits two enemies in a column. It also has two special attacks, flame spear which simply does more damage than the regular attacks, and lightening spear which causes the enemy to not act as often.

Axe: HP and Defense are both high, but not quite as high as a swordsman. Axe users do fairly well in the front line of your formation. Their basic attack is much better than that of a swordsman as it can hit an entire row of enemies in one attack. Axe users also have a very deadly ability that traps a row of enemies in ice.

Sword: The toughest to kill Hero with high HP and Defense. It is the only hero who can use a shield and is very well suited to take a lot of hits in the front of your formation. His biggest disadvantage is the fact that his basic and magic attacks only hits one target in the front, but it does hit hard.

Ranged Armor Guide for Atlantica Players

2009-10-07T19:55:00.000-07:00

Bow: Average HP and Defense, the archer is best not used in the front lines. Although their attack only hits one target, it hits hard and hits any enemy no matter where they are in a formation, even if they are flying. They can also prevent enemies from casting magic, a very useful ability.

Gun: Average HP and Defense, a gunner can hit 3 enemies in a column with high damage. A very offensive hero. Canon: Average HP and Defense. A canon can do fair damage to 5 enemies in a cross pattern. They also have an ability called Deep Insight which can eventually hit all enemies, shows their HP and lowers their defense.

Musician: The musician is a ranged armour user with fairly well rounded stats. While his defense and hp are fairly good, it is usually best not to put him in the front of your formation. His true power lays in his special ability Raveging Melody. This ability first hits one row of enemies, then 5 in a cross pattern at level 20.

And finally all the enemies at level 50. RM puts a strong DoT on the enemies that not only does fair damage, but also makes the enemies considerably weaker. This makes the Musician great for players who want to level quickly. One disadvantage is that the Musician always hits multiple targets and kills very often so he tends to go up in levels too much faster than your mercenaries.

Atlantica Class guide

2009-04-22T18:07:00.000-07:00

1. Player character

Sword

The Swordsman has the best survivability of all classes, which makes him the natural tank class. His attack is rather strong, but it can only affect a single non-flying target in the front row, so he should not be solely relied upon for offense. The Swordsman's basic magic skill, Flame Sword, attacks one enemy for a greater amount of damage.

Spear

The Spearman can attack a single non-flying foe in the front row. If there is another foe in the same column directly behind the target, that foe also receives damage, although half of the original target. The Spearman's basic magic skill, Lightning Spear, attacks two foes in a line for greater damage and slows them. At higher upgrade level, Lightning Spear hits up to 3 targets in the column. Aside from the damage from Lightning Spear, it's greatest strength is that it actually removes action points from the receiving targets.

Axe

The slow-moving Viking can attack a single target in the front row. If that target has one or two neighbors in the same row, then those also take some damage. This character has many hit points but low defense, especially versus magic - but this weakness is made up via high magic defense gear that is only usable by the main character. This is one of the primary reasons why the Axe is by far the most popular choice of main character. Because they are so much better than their mercenary counterpart. The Viking's basic magic skill, Freezing Axe, can freeze an entire row of enemies for two turns (depending on level).

Bow

Despite bonuses to evasion, this character's low health make it unsuitable for the front line. It is a potent counter for enemy spell casters though, as the powerful single-target attack can reach every foe, regardless of its position in the enemy ranks. The Archer's basic magic skill, Silence, prevents the enemy from using magic.

Gun

The Gunner wields a gun and carries rather low protection. This character can damage an entire column of foes, with foes in the front absorbing taking most of the damage and half damage to the two behind. The Gunner's basic magic skill, Wild Shot, shoots especially powerful bullets at a column of enemies and deals greater damage.

Cannon

The Artilleryman is armed with a hand-held cannon. Its standard attack damages a cross-shaped area, dealing a low amount of damage. The Artilleryman's basic magic skill, Deep Insight, inflicts damage over an area and enables him to see his foe's remaining hit points. One important thing to notice is that even through the Artilleryman is a ranged unit, they cannot damage flying enemies.

Staff

The Shaman has both healing and damaging skills to support the party. Due to low health and defense, this character is best placed away from the front line. The Shaman's basic magic spell, Blessing of Life, heals her fellow mercenaries. The skill that makes the Staff shine is the main-character-only skill: Evanescent Scud. It does a very large amount of damage to everyone on opposing team and has a low cooldown period.

Guitar

The Musician has mostly ranged skills. This is a new type of character introduced with a recent patch. Its basic attack affects a column of enemy mobs but the class also has the ability to cast spells with various offensive effects.

Power saw

The Power saw character uses a power saw. This is a new type of character introduced with a recent patch. You have to have at least one playable character that has a level of 100 or over to be able to create a new character which uses this weapon.

2. Mercenaries

Mercenary classes include the following:

Sword: Swordsman, Exorcist, Lady Knight, Sailor

Staff: Shaman, Monk, Oracle, Witch, Princess, Elementalist

Axe: Viking, Beast Trainer

Spear: Spearman, Spartan

Gun: Gunner, Inventor, Janissary

Cannon: Artilleryman, Cannoneer

As with player characters, the weapon determines the basic attack. Additionally, the sub-classes differ in the distribution of attributes and available magic skills.

Raising Atlantica online' s skill

2009-04-21T17:42:00.000-07:00

As tempting as it may be to try to teach your Hero and Merc's every skill available to them. It's not a really good idea for two reasons.

1) Mana. In the cast of the Monks protection spell. That is auto cast at the start of your turn. The higher in level it is the more mana it eats. Meaning you'll be sitting alot or chugging alot of MP potions.

2) Deluded Characters. You get 1 skill point per level. Teaching and raising skills causes them all to be rather weak. As you are spreading points between skills instead of focusing it into one. So where as my Swordsman lvl 40 Flame Sword is doing 480 dmg. Your Swordsman lvl 28 Flame Sword is doing 200 dmg. Because you dumped the rest of your points into DarkSeed and Guard Dispel. Stay Focused, and plan ahead. The books to remove skills points are expensive, and they only remove one point at time.

Have a good day in game...

The tactical battle of Atlantica online

2009-04-21T17:39:00.000-07:00

1.When a player character and an enemy character come into contact with each other on the game map, both parties are transported into a miniature instance where the battle takes place. For outside players, the involved parties appear as stationary, with a symbol floating over the combatants' heads to indicate combat. In this state, both parties, computer-controlled foes as well as human players, can receive assistance from up to two additional allied parties that can enter the battle at any time. This can lead to large battles of up to 27 monsters versus 27 heroes (3 players, 24 mercenaries).

2.The game is classically turn-based in that only one side can take action at a time and those actions take immediate effect. However, each character also has a certain speed represented by action points; that means that slower characters may have to skip some turns to reach a threshold value of action points while fast-moving characters have to skip fewer turns or none at all. Additionally, magic effects can also modify the amount of action points a character has to allow fine-grained control of speed effects. Each party can never have more than 5 characters act during a turn, even if more than 5 characters have sufficient action points.

3.The characters of each party are positioned on a 3x3 grid. Positioning the characters is an important decision, because different weapons and skills have different attack patterns. The player can change the position of his/her characters during a battle if desired.

The Role of the Artilleryman

2009-04-19T02:30:00.000-07:00

The Artilleryman in atlantica essentially has one overall function in a player's party. This is to deal out area-of-effect damage. Additionally, the Artilleryman can fire upon any unit at all in the enemy's formation, which gives the class a bit of a sniper role as well.

If there is a wounded opponent in the rear ranks of an enemy's formation, the artilleryman can oftentimes do a great job of finishing them off.

In your own formation, you're going to want to have your Artilleryman in the back ranks, protected by melee mercenaries or other tougher mercenaries.

Even a Monk or a Shaman can oftentimes tank more successfully than an Artilleryman. Ranged mercs are simply quite weak when it comes to staying alive in a battle,(goldceo.com) though their capability to bring damage into the enemy's back ranks is a worthy tradeoff for this.

The Artilleryman is also an excellent choice for a main character class. The skills Deep Insight and Chaos Wind are quite deadly when pumped up completely with skill books, (goldceo.com)and an Artilleryman main is actually a pretty tough customer.

Additionally, stun AoE builds are some of the stronger PvP builds in late game PvP, and the Artilleryman is an excellent addition to such a build. A nonmain Artilleryman is much weaker than a main character Artilleryman, so it's absolutely worth consideration to make your main an Arty.

Atlantica Guild Points and Guild Experience

2009-04-19T02:20:00.000-07:00

Here I will describe the difference between Atlantica Online Guild Points and Guild Experience.

Guild exp is used to level up your guild. Leveling up your guild has the following effects:

1. Your guild capacity increases, eventually up to 50.

2. You gain officer slots. You can have 1 officer for every 5 guild levels, up to a maximum of 5.

3. You gain the ability to enter guild dungeons at level 11.

4. Your guild becomes safe from deletion (provided someone logs in at least every 15 days) once you hit 16.

5. At level 50, you gain the guild buff. It starts at 1% to atk and workload, and gives an additional 1% every 10 levels after that. Unlike title buffs, the guild buff is always on. It also adds to any running title buff, making it very powerful if you can make it to the upper guild levels.

Guild points are essentially a special kind of guild currency. You can spend them to:

1. Bid on towns - this is where you'll likely be using the overwhelming majority of your points, unless of course you decide to sell GP instead.

2. Buy guild manuals - these allow you to transfer points to other guilds, a service which you'll of course charge a significant amount of Atlantica gold for.

3. Buy keys to run guild or nation dungeons.

Hope this help.Credit to Mwrip

Exclusive Artilleryman's Guide

2009-04-15T03:37:00.000-07:00

Official Description

Filling the air with gunpowder, the artilleryman can hit any target, along with those enemies unfortunate enough to be standing adjacent to the artilleryman's quarry.

Their cannon has high accuracy but low attack power. Although they're long range mercenaries, they have high HP.

Attack Type

The artilleryman can hit as many as four targets in a T formation. That is, his cannon blasts hit the target, the enemy behind the target, and one enemy on each side of the target. The ability to damage multiple enemies at once makes up for the low attack power of the artilleryman's cannons.

Deep Insight is a magic spell that deals a normal attack and reveals the HP of the targets of the blast. This skill is useful for determining which unit should attack which target next and prevents wasting the attack of a unit that is stronger than needed. Deep Insight lasts for two turns and requires two turns of cool down.

Attributes and Upgrades

The artilleryman starts with the highest strength (STR), vitality (VIT), defense (DEF), and magic defense (MAG DEF) of all Rank D ranged fighters. Players can upgrade him at level 20, 50, 80, and 100 with Ashen Jewels. As he progresses, the artilleryman will continue to have the highest STR among his rank D ranged peers, but his weapons will do less damage than those of an archer.

The high VIT and MAG DEF of the artilleryman are important because his average DEX means he cannot dodge many attacks. Additionally, the growth curve for the artilleryman's DEF is slow, meaning the Hero Napolean unit has the lowest DEF of any Rank D unit--even the magical units.

Exclusive Artilleryman's Strategy

2009-04-15T03:31:00.000-07:00

Unless players choose an artilleryman as their main character, they won't be able to get them very early. Before level 20, players should be able to place artillerymen in the second row and even leave them exposed without much concern. After level 20 upgrades, the monsters the player faces and the other units available make the artilleryman a defensive liability. At that point, he must be behind at least one other unit if not on the back row for his safety.

Though their attacks are weaker than other ranged units on individual targets, the artilleryman's ability to damage a whole row in one attack should not be dismissed. Players can open with the artilleryman's attack and then finish with melee characters, If the artilleryman falls behind in XP, players can just proceed in the reverse order, letting the artilleryman get several kills (and higher XP) in one shot.

Having an entire row of artillerymen is not a horrible idea when fighting multiple enemies at once. However, an archer is a better choice of ranged fighters for single tough targets, such as bosses.

As Rank C units become available, the player gains access to cannoneers. In the end, cannoneers are slightly better than artillerymen and can stun enemies, but players may find that an upgraded artilleryman still has use and that the Deep Insight skill has value in some fights.

5) Only 1 Sword Man, 1 Gunner, 1 Female Shaman, 1 Monk, and I were alived after defeat the Boss "Dracula".

8th Boss "Minotaurus King" in Creta Maze for lv 59~64; I killed it at lv59 after 3rd try

1) Incredibly Tough: It uses Incredibly Strong Attack. Immune to Biking's Freeze skill.

2) You just need to be lucky. Praise to god for Boss won't use skill in 2nd or 3rd turn.

3) In my case, I used Beserk on 3 Gunners. They wiped out the monsters but they also got wiped out by the Boss.

4) Start from 1st line Biking, rest of 1st line member got wiped out, too.

5) I barely defeat this guy and only 1 Female Shaman, 1 Monk and I survived.

* I did not used any scroll on this fight, it would've been easier if I did.

The strategies of Free league

2009-04-09T00:34:00.001-07:00

I just started doing free league in Atlantica Online and it is a lot of fun.Below are the strategies about the free league.If you are interested in it,just read now.

- monk and exos are very important in free league. Monks are made to keep your main alive and keeping your characters from being stunned and protects them from magic. Exos are for silencing spellcasters from either healing or doing AOE skills. Do Holy Guard and Mana Seal as much as possible.

- Every lineup must have a viking! You cant go wrong with their high def (but low magic def) and freezng axe!

- learn to switch your characters!

- good strategy always defeats good equips

More guide will be with you, please pay attention to us!

How to save Atlantica Gold

2009-04-07T03:21:00.000-07:00

How to save money?Many players don't know that how to do it.Now I found several conserve money tips.please read up.Hope it's helpful to you.

Atlantica coins/shards raise in value over time. So unlike the actual bank, its the only thing in game that will actually pay you interest over time. Granted, that may be a very long time.

1.Always sell items in a city with a tax rate of 1%. If you are having trouble finding a 1% tax rate, just go to Rome. It's always 1% there.

2.Always withdraw and deposit Atlantica gold in a city with a 1% tax rate. Once again, Rome is always 1%.

3.Don't use ammunition on ranged characters in PvE.

4.Watch the prices of the items you want to buy and then buy them when they are low.

Atlantica: Newest characters and many new skills

2009-04-05T01:20:00.000-07:00

What do you think of these? Just go through ^^

1. New Mercs: Musician and Berserker.

Musician hit as like spear(line attack): medium armor - specialized lowering enemy's def/ hp/ attack rate

Berseker hit as like viking(a row attack): heavy armor (player must have a char lv 100+ to create Berserker.)

2. New skills (Main characters)

sword: chaos blade-attack front 3 enemys(as like freezing axe) with flame sword, add 120% dmg to enemy with brutal will/ set will

spear: flame spear- x wide front attack as arty.

bow: rain of arrow- all area attack

gun: shot gun- x wide attack as arty but 120% more dmg with smoke bomb, deep insight, prophet magic.

axe: war's soul- when HP is lower than 50%, add more dmg(+ level 100 viking dmg)

cannon: chaos cannon-x wide attack with decreasing oppenent's def, attack, combo rate.

staff: flame strike- all area attack as powerful as meteo strike. but it hits 2x times instead once.

Note:

1. Atlantica Online player can change to musician from another class with cash item. but Berserker does not follow suit. Need to start from lv1 again and need all new merc and new inventory/ merc room slot. Cuz, berserker is B grade merc while rest main char are C grade.

2. With new main char skills, Staff is 1 league/ hunting char in Korea now. However, people are expecting Berserker will be 1 later. People are complaining about staff's 3 turn all area attack. With witch's meteo(4 turns)+ BT+ Cannon's deep insight + Main char's 3 turn flame strike, staff are more stronger than any other char.

3. The worst new skills for main are cannon and axe. Deep insight is still better than new skill.

How to defeat Staff Mains in Atlantica

2009-04-01T01:54:00.000-07:00

When you use a stun build,How to defeat Staff Mains in Atlantica?Many players don't know that.So I will give five tips to you.Hope it is helpful to you.

witch - sword - sword

exo - gun - gun

monk - sham - gun(main)

1. Dun go after the staff main first . go after units in order to stun them, then u take out the more vulnerable ones.

2. Priority - stun the monk

3. I'd switch the exo with a gun in midline - you will want to keep him alive as long as possible to pull as many stuns (and stop monk awakening).

4. Shaman switch with monk, or else a spear might just kill the monk when ur not looking. I'd pick monk over shaman anytime pvp.

5. The thing with staff mains is that they tend to enjoy more healing due to mdef, it is only after you destroy other sources of healing (e.g. monk, another shaman or oracle, or exo speedcast counts, despite the relatively puny heal), then you could 'safely' go after the main w/o the main happily healing away the dmg.

Atlantica:How to attacks on Bosses

2009-03-31T03:04:00.000-07:00

This is a discussion about AoE vs Regular Attacks on Bosses in Atlantica.It's true different bosses have different mdef, but if there's one thing consistent, def will always be going up, up, up. lets take an example.

sekhmet - boss from necropolis, lvl 80 main ring questline. Was doing that a 2nd time then. Yes, I soloed & won.

my axe(M) had osiris+2, does approx 200+ dmg per hit, freeze axe does somewhere around 300+dmg per round.

VERDICT - I might as well atk and hope for multi-hit. However, if I have loads of magic-using mercs. the mdef debuff can come in handy. Its sorta toss-up. In the end, I went freeze axe fyi.

Exo had dark knight+3, does less than 100dmg per hit - but mana burn, surprisingly does abt 500+dmg on sekhmet. I tested this & I was like O.o omg

VERDICT - magic over regular atk. trust me, I'm still very surprised, but it works.

witch meteor still does 1k+ dmg on him, and witch hits him for teeny dmg, somewhere around exo (maybe its the anu+2, and she's higher lvl too)

VERDICT - meteor ftw!

spear does dmg a little more than axe(M), with osiris+3. lightning spear does 400+dmg to him.

VERDICT - sekhmet seems to never run outta AP. I dunno, but that seems the case for me, so I vote regular atks

Beastmaster does slightly lower than axe(M), beast summon does lower than 100 (cuze I had beast summon at only lvl 20 then)

VERDICT - regular hits.

the above is just an example. The issue is, sometimes, deposit your Atlantica gold, and go alternate between magic & normal attack to see how works best. You'll likely die during this "testing" against boss, but the next time you take him on, you know how works better, and can formulate a decent strat to take revenge.

Atlantica Online guide: Musician guide

2009-03-30T00:32:00.000-07:00

Well hello there! Welcome to my blog. Here I found a guide for Musician's Skills. If you have any?trouble with this, just go through this article.

The beginning skill: -150def, -10atk, -26health for 2 turns (3 turn cooldown) is looking decent and be able to counter an opposing prophet nicely in terms for their damage boost.

You're also classified as staff (high base damage, high mdef, weapon on +vit/+int) while being allowed to use ranged gear like bow/cannon/gun.

Thats where it ended.

You need an activation to trigger concentrate, which is passive, and don't trigger twice on -health and need to sacrifice your main slot for it.

In order to counter all healing from a prophet (their main goal) you'd still need another aoe, which kinda removes the benefit.

Any 2 aoe's can do that but you'd be able to pick the options yourself.

Their 2nd skill (and here's the hilarious part) is terrible compared to the main one.

It's -100def, 1% accuracy (why would i want to BUFF my OPPONENT?!) and -56hp and again row based.

Why is it terrible? less -def/atk for more damage is a good thing! Well, for pvp you only get to target 1, one, merc with it. Not a row, column or entire part... just 1. You get to affect a single target, and in order to debuff it you increase its damage output.

Good Farming Atlantica Gold Spot

2009-03-29T04:58:00.000-07:00

How to choose a farming spots?It is very important to Atlantica players.A good farming spot where will get gold and items easily.The farming tips as follows:

1) The gear you need to run through the level 50 quests is the gear you got in the level 35 quests. The gear you need to run through the level 60 quests, is the gear you got in the level 50 quests. It is true that you will not get everything from drops, but you can buy some item by Atlantica gold, but you do not need to worry about having all level 50 gear as soon as you turn level 50 (you should try to have almost all level 50 stuff when you turn 60,Atlantica powerleveling service on our website)

2) Enchanting gear is fine, but not vital. I usually have very few +3 pieces, a few +2 pieces, several +1, and several with no enchantment. I recommend only enchanting when you get a matched drop or if you happen to see a "good" price for something. The level 80 and 90 gear is even harder to come by then the lower level stuff, but so far in the early 90s I am getting by fine with the level 80 gear and am slowly switching out into the level 90 stuff.

3) I do agree that occasional "farming" for practice and fun is helpful, not just to learn the game but also for some gold. I always spend some extra time on a few mobs every level range, just because I find something that drops something I want or because I find they are a bit harder than others and I want to learn why and how to deal with them. I have not had to do any excessive farming, and the farming I have done was always entertaining to me and occasionally lucrative.

4) I find its a good idea to try to make as many friends in game as possible. This gives you a welcome supply of people to trade monster information with as well as crafting skills (if you decide to craft). Monster info has tangible in game benefits that are not negligible. You also may be able to call on them for aid from time to time when teaming can make the game easier and/or more fun.

Atlantica Online: Rules and Regulations of Free Leagues

Atlantica online Skills for swordsman

2009-03-27T02:15:00.000-07:00

Do you know which Swordsman Skills should you train? Here is a thread for training Swordsman.If you are interested in it ,please read it now.Have a good experience in Atlantica

It's a good idea to plan ahead as to which skills you intend to increase.With 5 skill choices for the Swordsman. A skill's level can't go higher than 60, and there are 120 levels in the game. So potentially you could have two skills at 60, or three at 40, or any other variation which you might prefer.If your level is lower than 60,you can choose Atlantica powerleveling service on usfine.com.

Flame Sword is an obvious choice. I personally recommend letting go of the swordsman when the class C tanking mercs come around, because these new mercs are much more powerful. Flame Sword books are very easy to come by, so boosting this most used.

Swordsman skill is an obvious option. If you plan to PvP with your Swordsman, other options are Dark Seed, Breakdown, or Guard Dispel. Each of these skills are useful, but the books are expensive, so it probably doesn't make much sense to pump a bunch of gold into a mercenary that you will probably replace around level 70 or 90.

Another good option is Deadly Strike, but its books are also hard to come by. If you really decided to hang onto your Swordsman all the way to 120, I'd recommend raising Flame Sword, Breakdown, and either Deadly Strike or Guard Dispel. Dark Seed is useful when you have a Shaman, but for reasons which I'll go into in a bit Shamans become much less useful in the later levels.

--One good strategy is cost Atlantica gold to buy a single Breakdown, Deadly Strike, and Guard Dispel book, and to train your Swordsman to level 1 in each of these skills. If you were keeping him around for the full duration of your playtime, it would of course be a great idea to train these very powerful skills to a very high level. But better mercenaries eventually come along, making this option much less favorable. Additionally, if you have a melee main, it's a much better idea to train up Guard Dispel and Breakdown on your main.

--If you have each of these skills at level 1 on your Swordsman, you'll still have these skills in your arsenal, making it possible to activate Hell Fire and Destructive Wind on the enemy party through combination with the Shaman skill Hex of Darkness, and the ranged class D mercenary skill Chaos Wind. It also is advisable to have Guard Dispel on as many mercenaries as possible, to free up the usage of more varied strategies in every round of battle.

Some Atlantica's betting experience

2009-03-25T01:11:00.000-07:00

Some Atlantica's betting experience for you,lol

1. Don't bet on the favourites all the time. I like to say its 40% formation, 60% dumbass AI.

2. note who does better on certain formations. e.g. cleo tends to do better if she has a potential seth will line (however, that does not guarantee win), the more ranged units, the better beatrice does...its not random, arena formations selected from a range of formations. Watch carefully, and after a while, you'll see a couple of repeats here and there.

3. sometimes, when betting on higher dividends, remember, 1 win from those can cover a whole day of losses. e.g. I once betted on jeane, she won, I get 500k, when I simply betted 50k. Or chuk yeon, she wins, I get abt 259k. I just bet 50k per bet.

4. Nobody is a sure-fire win. just gotta cross your fingers at times. And HEDGE your bets. Bet at least 1 winner from the first 4, 1 winner from the other 4. if you feel confident, bet those 2 meeting in the finals. But remember, look at the lowest div, and do not bet on too many winners. that means as long as just ONE bet comes true, the money u earn makes up for the other bets that didn't make it.

5. first place, in my opinion (erm, disagree if u may, but dun flame me), is the easiest to bet. assuming all 8 are equally dumb, that gives 12.5% chance per winner. if raph features, split his 12.5% among the other 7.

*just joking* pray that the big winners whose names pop out when they win mega bucks post here and think abt helping u.

Level 20 - 228 damage, 720 DEF reduction, 192 ATK reduction, 135 mana cost

I see that all of these mana costs are surprisingly high (especially for passives) so either Witch Mana Recharge is going to be real useful real soon, or they don't translate literally.

Atlantica Online Tactical battle Guide

2009-03-24T01:10:00.000-07:00

The game's battle system is unusual for its genre in that it uses a turn-based system.

When a player character and an enemy character come into contact with each other on the game map, both parties are transported into a miniature instance where the battle takes place. For outside players, the involved parties appear as stationary, with a symbol floating over the combatants' heads to indicate combat. In this state, both parties, computer-controlled foes as well as human players, can receive assistance from up to two additional allied parties that can enter the battle at any time. This can lead to large battles of up to 27 monsters versus 27 heroes (3 players, 24 mercenaries).

The game is classically turn-based in that only one side can take action at a time and those actions take immediate effect. However, each character also has a certain speed represented by action points; that means that slower characters may have to skip some turns to reach a threshold value of action points while fast-moving characters have to skip less turns or none at all. Additionally, magic effects can also modify the amount of action points a character has to allow fine-grained control of speed effects. Each party can never have more than 5 characters act during a turn, even if more than 5 characters have sufficient action points.

The characters of each party are positioned on a 3x3 grid. Positioning the characters is an important decision, because different weapons and skills have different attack patterns. The player can change the position of his/her characters during a battle if desired.

During a character's turn, one of the following actions can be performed:

Basic Attack: Perform a standard attack.

Magic: Use one the character's available magic skills.

Item: Use an item that is assigned to one of the character's available Quick Slots, such as a healing potion or a magic scroll.

Move: Move the character to any position on the grid that is not occupied by a dead character. If the target destination is occupied by a living character, the characters will switch positions.

Wait: Forfeits the character's turn, keeping all action points.

Guard: Assume a stance that reduces damage dealt to that character during the enemies' next turn, while passing on the character's turn to the next character that has sufficient action points to act (if any).

Search: Search the body of a fallen enemy for loot. This also removes the body from the field, preventing resurrection.

Switch mercenary: Switch the mercenary out for one that is not currently fielded. You can only do this a limited amount of times during a battle.

All of these actions, except for Wait, consume a certain amount of action points.

Atlantica online 's Swordsman guide

2009-03-24T01:08:00.000-07:00

Official Description

Swordsmen are the only character who can use a shield. And their high defense and HP set them apart.

Do you want to protect your team from the enemy's attack? Swordsmen can serve as a powerful shield that protects your mercenaries.

However, they have weak attack power for a melee fighter and can only strike one enemy at a time.

Attack Type

The swordsman can hit any front line target that is not flying. Despite the official description, the swordsman seems to produce high damage attacks.

Flame Sword is a magic attack that deals damage and reduces the target's vitality. The result should be an enemy that cannot regain its original full hit points for the duration of the spell. Flame Sword lasts one turn and requires two turns before it can be used again, so it is impossible to keep an enemy's vitality debuffed with just one swordsman.

Other spells the swordsman can learn include Guard Dispel, Deadly Strike, Dark Seed, and Break Down. Guard Dispel removes the Holy Guard buff from the first row of the enemy squad. Deadly Strike allows a swordsman near death to trade a super powerful attack in this round for his turn the next round. Dark Seed causes damage over time and can combine with Hex of Darkness to create the Hell Flame combo attack. Break Down damages all enemies with an earthquake. If cast on an enemy effected by Chaos Wind, Break Down triggers the Destructive Wind combo attack.

Attributes and Upgrades

The swordsman starts with the highest strength (STR), dexterity (DEX) and defense (DEF) of all Rank D ranged fighters. Players can upgrade him at level 20, 50, 80, and 100 with Ashen Cyrstals. As he progresses, the swordsman will continue to have the highest STR and DEF among his rank D ranged peers, but the spearman has only slightly lower attributes while possessing the ability to damage two enemies in a column. Additionally, players may find that spears add more damage than swords.

The high DEF and vitality (VIT) of the swordsman makes him the ideal front row fighter. He can soak up hits with his high defense and hit points to keep your frail rear units safe.

Strategy

The choice to hire a swordsman is a decision to create a "tank" on the front row to take damage for the squad. Their high DEF and HP mitigate a lot of damage that could cripple your party, but be prepared to heal them when they get hit by magic as they rank in the bottom three in magic defense (MAG DEF) among rank D mercenaries.

Choosing sword as your class for your main character ensures that your leader will have high HP and a good chance to survive. It also means your leader will likely be on the front row where he will get hit often. The benefit of being a swordsman seems to even out with the deficit.

Having more than one swordsman in a squad provides a firm front defense but lowers the damage capabilities of the squad overall as other front line fighters can damage more foes or hit harder. The key to overcoming the lower damage output of single attacks with more than one swordsman is to learn to trigger combo attacks by using the right skills.

Atlantica Online World Map Overview

2009-03-22T01:28:00.000-07:00

In Atlantica Online, people may usually use world map. So we should know of it sometimes. If you havem more or better Atlantica online guides, you can send to us and share with more players. You can get some points once adopted.

The world map in Atlantica Online features real world locations mixed with mythological and fantasy elements. Countries like Germany and China are represented, with cities like Munich, Moscow, and Sapporo being featured as cities where one can visit. Though the locations on the map feature climates similar to their real world counter-parts, the architecture is often a generic recreation of well known structure types, such as the cities in Eastern Europe and Japan. Rome also takes on a big role as a real world location, resembling the ancient city of Rome as is well known from it's period of conquest as the Roman Empire. Any player can instantly teleport to Rome with the necessary percentage of Will available. While in Rome players can check out the Bazaar, store items at a warehouse, and fight in PvP competitions held daily and weekly. There are also a few NPC's available only in Rome.

The locations are based on real world locations, but are often heavily altered in order to make the game more interesting. Most of the civilizations represented are in different time periods- for example, Rome is still in the time of the Roman Empire, but Great Britian is independent, the Ottoman Empire reigns in Turkey, Southeast Asia resembles ancient Indian kingdoms before Western colonization and Islamic influence, and North America is caught up in the Industrial Revolution. This results in many convenient (and probably intentional) inaccuracies when it comes to NPC design, as famous people like Caesar, Erik the Red, William Shakespeare, Charlie Chaplin, and Henry Ford are all alive in the same time period, along with mythical characters like Beowulf.

Added to this on December 16th was the North American continent which features New York as a new explorable city and the United States and Mexico as explorable countries. These contain a few dungeons, but greatly expand the map in Atlantica.

How to defeat Bosses in Atlantica

2009-03-22T01:24:00.000-07:00

1) The Boss Fight takes place at seperated room/area

2) It is 1vs1 fight. However, you might have to fight 1vs2 battle in higher level.

3) Your party member can not join the regular Boss Fight. Party member can join only Boss fight at "Shadow Area"

4) Get use to using useful Magic Scrolls.

5) The battle is over as soon as either the Boss or your main character dies. Therefore,

try to set your main character at 3rd line.

*Each Boss fight, some window pop up on right side of screen. It shows possibility of beating the Boss as ###%.

*"Shadow Area": Each Dungeon has "Shadow Area". In this area, all the monsters are invisible. You also need certain

amount of Fame to enter in. You can raise Fame by PVP tournament or league.
