A Highlander Guide(to training/etc, SP'ing included)

Will be updated when possible.
This guide is open to constructive criticism. Feel free to post your suggestions!

Guide features SP, Suggested armors and a couple generally suggested potions to buy as a Highlander,

Highlanders, although lack a stun skill, can suprisingly be enjoyable to play(speaking as a HL ONLY, I yet have to play another character :c).

Lets cut the huge stories and mumbo jumbo and get straight to business.. First Things first, to raise a HL, you will want gear. Luckily on Cariae, people don't believe in collecting axes for sale(at least, I haven't found axes to be a common item to be found in the market).


Suggested gear from level 1-30(I DON'T believe in elizabeth's enchantment).
-*Platinum Super Skill Pill (PSSP) OR Super Skill Pill(SSP) and Effort Scroll
-Skill Point Resurrection Scroll - Nearly a must-have item, for lag/disconnections
-Resurrection Scroll - nearly a must-have item, for lag/disconnections
-A line of weapons from level 1 to 17, Hopefully +5 or better. +'s aren't VITAL to survival, but are really nice to have, Either axes or swords will do.
-Amor Sets (Level 5-7, and the 15-17 set, Suggested at least +3 all. Socketed gear is nice, but nowhere near necessary)
-Level 21+15 Spirit Murderer(titan event weapon)

* = SSP and Effort Scrolls are a cheaper alternative to the common PSSP. I found myself using these after I used up my freebie PSSP on fox/deer, they worked great.

Other Suggestions:
-Tears of Knight x3 OR Tears of Knight x2 and Necklace of Fire(16x3 OR 16x4 strength seal)
-Large Attack Potion
-Large Defense Potion
-Level 6-14 Physical Attack Mineral
-Level 6-14 Physical Defense Mineral


Training Method(Varies by persons wealth, time and dedication). With the SP farm, you will need roughly 8-10k SP after all Titan skills are maxed, to get to ~level 100 with a full skills list.

Level - Dedicated Training | Level-Casual SP training | Level-Wealthy

1-6 - Foxes, little foxes | 1-5 Foxes, Little Foxes | 1-6 LEVEL FAST
6-20 - Sasquach | 5-17 Sasquach | 6-12 Sasquach(w/o SPB)
20-30 Prokian Temple | 17-30 Prokian Temple |12 *Sasquach SPB + Sp res scroll die*
| 12-17 Sasquach
|17-30 Prokian Temple

*words*(Can be repeated until you get near your desired SP farmed up. NOTE: it takes roughly 20 SP RES scroll to clear 99% exp. You can also do this at level 13 and still recieve a huge chunk of SP from sassy's).


Level 31-72 guide to levelling WITHOUT being P'lvl'd.

Almost Necessary gear and items:
-Level 30-32 Armor (Berserker set) +10. "Rich Kids" cruise with +14-15 gear socketed.
-Level 50-52 Armor (Ogre set) +10 or better.
-Level 60-62 Armor (Brute set) +10 or better.
-Any axe with +10 or better +.
-Uruz Back Shield - I put this at a priority, as titans are susceptible to magical attacks commonly found in Temple of Forgetfulness. Since this piece of equipment doesn't have a later-level version of it, I suggest you get it to +15 and get it to 2 sockets. Although it will cost you TONS of money, its REALLY worth it. While you do this, get some level 5 gems in there; suggested Ruby and White Pearl.
- Level 6-12 Magical Defense Mineral - Titans are susceptible to magical attacks
- PBI(about 7 level 31-60, and about 15 level 61-90)
- Tears of Knight x2 AND 16x4 str acc (I found 3 tok IS NOT necessary in these stages for HR)

Fun Pots to use Smile
-Super Haste
-Platinum Adrenaline!!!
-Strength Potion - these things are cheap, last an hour, and provide about +10 physical attack.
-Small Crit Potion - speed up training immensely. I crit almost everytime with these.
-Large Chocolate and Stars - Although stars only give +50 attack, they stack with every other attack boost, resulting in even MORE damage. Large Chocolates are just insane. I would put Large Chocolate as a "near priority."


General Guidelines to training: everyone has their own opinion on how to train fast, here's what I found to be of fast experience. I can't really put this in a list so I'll mutter what can and cannot be done with a titan wearing specific armor sets. Razz

Level 30-32 armor set at +14 CAN survive in Temple of Forgetfulness, but requires Level 12 physical defense minerals and Large defense Pots. All that you can do in the level 30-47 stage is fight the spiders and a couple of mages with lvl12Magical Defense mins. PRS+1's can help reduce their magical attacks much further for a full day, something I didn't think about when I spent my time training there. Great Healing Potions(npc buyable) are necessary here. I know for sure you are able to kill the Blood Terrain with all the defense potions with a +14 set(NOT PRS'd), although you'll be clicking your Great Healing Potions like a madman.

Level 50-52 armor at +11 will provide a nice cover to those spiders. It should allow you to run through a lot of the cave without taking a harsh amount of damage. Although you still require Great Healing Potions, they aren't as NECESSARY as they were in the level 30-32 stage. with the ultimate PURPLE buff, you should be able to kill Erraticrat.

Level 60-62 armor at +11 will make you blush as every mob here tries to attack you with plastic butterknives and peacock feathers. The only worry you should have at this stage is the boss magical attacks. If you feel unsure of it, you can always bring some defense pots and minerals, but you shouldn't need many. Try to take damage so Perfect Body can activate.

I never bothered with any other armor set within levels 30-72. I feel as though these sets gave me the absolute necessary defense required for how I trained. Level 70-72 set really isn't necessary either, I suggest you skip to the level 75 Erraticrat set +10. This set is cheap, won't last long in your LC career, and you'll get to experience a "different" style of play with a HL. Try to take damage so Perfect Body can activate.


Level 75+ gear and weapons:
Level 75 Erraticrat armor +10 or better
Level 75 Erraticrat Axe +10 or better
Level 85-87 Armor (Thunder set)
Level 85 Axe of **** + 14 or +15 (I personally used a G5 axe, but B5 would be better)
Level 97 Devistating Red Axe +14 or +15(OR skip completely for a lvl 109-10 Khoono Axe + 14-15)

Level 75-100 I trained with the Erraticrat set on the mummies till level 87, then sphinx commanders to 101. Eva gear is nice, but it isn't necessary to have a full set of EVA gear just to deal with the mobs down there. Don't even bother with the level 9x set, you have enough defense to survive with Great Healing Potions and Defensive minerals. Don't fret if your set isn't a full +15 either, you want SOME damage from the mobs to keep Perfect Body running.

Level 101+ (INCOMPLETE: insufficient gaming experience to fufill this section)

Level 100 Quest : I am the Veteran
Easy quest. lvl 12 Magical Defense minerals help greatly with the monsters' magic attacks. Pop whatever boosts you want, and they'll come crashing faster then fast Razz

Cariae - HotChocolate = SN of my main toon.

Reserved for possible Sidenotes:

Remember, the titan level 85-87 set is NOT necessary to be full b5 EVA unless you plan on PVP.
Prime Example: Casting-Up Helm can be switched with B5 eva and you'll still survive for a long time.

WHAT DO I PLACE IN MY SOCKETS???
Ruby (str)
Black Pearl (Attack boost)
White Pearls(Hit Rate) - These aren't really necessary to level 100
Amethyst(magical Evasion) - Last resort jewels, not necessary.

What's better!?! b5 or g5?! I can't Decide!!!
B5 weapons are best suited for PvE due to their seals as well as Blue weapons having a stronger attack. B6-10's are almost always the most preferred in terms of 6 enchants.

"I'm going to use Hp absorption accessories Very Happy."
Worst mistake you will EVER make as a HL. You plan to live at 70% health, not 100%. Go and buy 10k Great healing potions Razz.

"93x2 VS Tears of Knight"
On Cariae, you can commonly find ToK's at 50-60mil range, while 93x2's are 200m+. Tears of Knight offer 168 HR with 16 Str and 16 Physical attack, while 93x2 HR accs offer 186HR. at the cost of 140m+, you only get 18 more HR, and negligable attack boost, I'd stick to ToK's
