+ | The evolution of the old [[Cart Termination]] spam Whitesmith, thanks to skills like [[Axe Tornado]] and [[Magma Eruption]], it is a lot easier to deal with MVPs, as you can easily get rid of the mob and keep focusing the MVP. FAWs can help you tank the damage of Earthquake and, in particular, Magic Decoy can detect hidden enemies around you, making it not only easy to kill monster that like to hide, but makes dangerous players like the [[Shadow Chaser]] have a real hard time, as you can Axe Boomerang then away from you and make it hard for then to come near you, as it can immediatly be detected and attacked by Magic Decoy. | ||
+ | |||
+ | It is worth mentioning that you don't need 190 or more ASPD, as Cart Termination can only be spammed at a max of 186 ASPD (approximately 4 attacks per second), so AGI is not such an important status, it's there mainly just to reach 186 and help against status like Sleep. | ||

A high amount of STR is required, since your most important offensive skill, [[Arm Cannon]], is heavily modified by ATK, while DEX and AGI helps [[Knuckle Boost]], a fairly efficient single target skill. both VIT and INT can be boosted to 120~130 to help the skill [[Self-Destruction]] on WoE.

+ | It should also be mentioned that Mado is better for endgame MVPs in general, namely things like Ifrit, Beelzebub or anything else that uses Earthquake/Hell's Judgement, the skill [[Neutral Barrier]] can block ranged damage, keeping squishier/support classes like Sorcerer, Arch Bishop and others safe. | ||

Overview
The Mechanic is the third job class of Blacksmiths/Whitesmiths. They have developed their skills beyond forging and basic combat by concentrating on the creation of machines, powered suits, and also improvement on their Axe abilities. Mechanics are given two distincts sides on their skill tree: Mado and Axe. No side needs points from the other to be invested, so pure builds of either Mado or Axe are possible, as well as hybrids.
Mado Mechanics utilize a system called a Madogear, enabling them to use ranged damage, party support, massive damage AoE attacks, and a range of WoE skills that make the Mechanic a very formidable foe. The other path is the Axe / CT Mechanic, which continues to use the Whitesmith's buffs and skills to deal massive amount of single target damage, but now with AoE and ranged attacks to control mobs. It is worth mentioning that Cart Termination and Magma Eruption can be used with any weapon, but Axe Tornado, Axe Boomerang and Power Swing cannot, so it is recommended to use Axes as your primary weapon. They also have the ability to create Fixed Autonomous Weapons (FAWs) which are capable of physical gunfire, magic attacks and detect hidden enemies.
As is the case with all Merchant classes, this class can be very expensive to play and is not recommended as a beginning character.
Job Change Guide
As soon as Blacksmith has reached 99/50 or a Whitesmith has reached 99/60, both can change to Mechanic on the Job Changer, whoever, it is recommended to reach 99/70 as a Whitesmith to get max value on your skill points, and it's not recommended at all to go straight from Blacksmith to Mechanic.
Builds
CT/Axe:
The evolution of the old Cart Termination spam Whitesmith, thanks to skills like Axe Tornado and Magma Eruption, it is a lot easier to deal with MVPs, as you can easily get rid of the mob and keep focusing the MVP. FAWs can help you tank the damage of Earthquake and, in particular, Magic Decoy can detect hidden enemies around you, making it not only easy to kill monster that like to hide, but makes dangerous players like the Shadow Chaser have a real hard time, as you can Axe Boomerang then away from you and make it hard for then to come near you, as it can immediatly be detected and attacked by Magic Decoy.
It is worth mentioning that you don't need 190 or more ASPD, as Cart Termination can only be spammed at a max of 186 ASPD (approximately 4 attacks per second), so AGI is not such an important status, it's there mainly just to reach 186 and help against status like Sleep.
Madogear:
The new thing for the -Smith classes is Madogear, a power suit focused on support, ranged combat and enemies going "oh no". A high amount of STR is required, since your most important offensive skill, Arm Cannon, is heavily modified by ATK, while DEX and AGI helps Knuckle Boost, a fairly efficient single target skill. both VIT and INT can be boosted to 120~130 to help the skill Self-Destruction on WoE. Madogears cannot be healed by traditional means, only by the skill Repair, the marriage skill "I'll save you!" and Coluceo Heal, whoever, the Mechanic needs to be the last member of the party to Coluceo Heal affect him at all.
It should also be mentioned that Mado is better for endgame MVPs in general, namely things like Ifrit, Beelzebub or anything else that uses Earthquake/Hell's Judgement, the skill Neutral Barrier can block ranged damage, keeping squishier/support classes like Sorcerer, Arch Bishop and others safe.
Hybrid
As both Mado and Axe builds are very similar stat wise, talking about Hybrid is talking more about how you put your skill points. Even though Axe builds have an undeniable higher DP, they're a close range class that can be totally nullfied by a simple Quagmire, with that in mind, you can invest on skills like Arm Cannon, Hover and Self-Destruction to help against Bosses that love to spam Meteor Storm or have the infamous NPC Agi Up. Other useful route is going to more support, having Neutral Barrier and Analyze can greatly help any party, with those skills and some help from Repair, you are always ready to most MVPs without having to modify your build at all, but that puts you at the mercy of your party, as it is hard to get offensive skills, you're reliant on your party members or Axe Tornado to defend yourself.
