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 the choice of two paths to follow: Mado Mechanic or Axe / HSCR Mechanic. A hybrid of the two is also possible.

The Mechanic is the Third Job of [[Blacksmith|Blacksmiths]] and [[Whitesmith|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 distinct 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 [[Mado Gear]], 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. They also have the ability to create Fixed Autonomous Weapons (FAWs) which are capable of physical gunfire, magic attacks and detect hidden enemies.

The other path is the Axe / HSCR Mechanic, which continues to use the [[Whitesmith]] skill, [[High Speed Cart Ram]] and can also use the [[Axe Tornado]] AoE outside of a Madogear. Mechanics can use any weapon with [[High Speed Cart Ram]], but have to use an [[axe]] for Axe Tornado. They also have the ability to create Fixed Autonomous Weapons (FAWs) which are capable of physical gunfire or ranged magic attacks.

As is the case with all [[Merchant]] Jobs, this Job can be very expensive to play and is not recommended as a beginning character.

As soon as a Blacksmith has reached 99/50 or a Whitesmith has reached 99/60, both can change to Mechanic on the Job Changer on Prontera, 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.

Tip: If you use a Frildora carded garment, you can bypass the mobs on this test. Otherwise, it is recommended to go in with alot of potions, anodyne, and keep yourself buffed to the max and spam HSCR to down mobs quickly.

'''CT/Axe:'''

*[[STR]]: 110~120

*[[AGI]]: 6~7x

*[[VIT]]: 92 + (8)

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 immediately be detected and attacked by Magic Decoy.
 +
 +
As Cart Termination is limited to the human capacity of keeping speed and rhythm, 186 ASPD is the maximum recommended. 120 STR is necessary for using the Temporal Boots of Strenght to get its full bonuses, Bear's Power is the preferable last enchant.
 +
 +
'''Mado Gear:'''
 +
*[[STR]]: 10x~12x
 +
*[[AGI]]: 54~64 + (6)
 +
*[[VIT]]: 92 + (8)
 +
*[[INT]]: 6x~8x
 +
*[[DEX]]: 100~120 + (5)
 +
*[[LUK]]: 1~44 + (6)
 +
 +
The new thing for the -Smith Jobs is [[Mado Gear]], 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 [[Boost Knuckle]], a fairly efficient single target skill. both VIT and INT can be boosted to 120~130 to help the skill [[Suicidal Destruction]]. Mado Gears cannot be healed by traditional means, so [[Repair]] can help a lot. 120 dex with the Temporal Boots of Dexterity will make this build a lot better reducing the fixed cast time of skills like Arm Cannon. Hawkeye is the preferable last enchant to go along spamming Boost Knuckle.
 +
 +
It should also be mentioned that Mado is better for endgame 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 Jobs like [[Sorcerer]], [[Arch Bishop]] and others safe.
 +
 +
'''Hybrid'''
 +
*[[STR]]: 10x~120
 +
*[[AGI]]: 5x~6x
 +
*[[VIT]]: 92 + (8)
 +
*[[INT]]: 6x~7x
 +
*[[DEX]]: 10x~120
 +
*[[LUK]]: 1
 +
 +
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 DPS, they're a close range Job that can be totally nullified by a simple [[Quagmire]]. With that in mind, you can invest on skills like [[Arm Cannon]] and [[Suicidal Destruction]] to help against Bosses that 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 [[MVP|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.

== Equipment ==
 +
=== Headgear ===
 +
'''Top'''
  
 +
*Sea Captain's Hat[1]: ''Cash shop item''. Increases the damage of [[Axe Boomerang]], [[Axe Tornado]] and [[Power Swing]]. If +7 or higher, gives more attack based on the level of [[Weaponry Research]]. Ideal for Axe builds.
  
== Class Data ==
+
*Airship Captain's Hat[1]: ''[[Prontera Princess]] item''. Increases ranged damage by 7%, +1 [[DEX]] and +100 [[HP]]. An amazing item for Mado Gear builds that can be shared with a lot of other classes.
=== Skills ===
+
  
 +
*Rideword Hat: ''Cash shop item''. Grants a 5% chance that 8% of physical attack damage will comeback as HP, also a 1% chance that 4% of physical attack damage will comeback as SP. Only really useful when mobbing, but still amazing.
 +
 +
*Giant Helm[1]: ''Cash shop item''. When equipped alongside Giant Axe[1], it grants an additional 15% damage on [[Cart Termination]], plus +5% on every refine past 4+ the weapon has. Decent option for leveling with an Axe build.
 +
 +
*Skymel Helmet[1]: ''[[Headgear Connoisseur]] item''. +5 [[MDEF]] and +7% ranged damage. If refined +7 or more, adds +3% on ranged damage. If you can get it up +7, it's basically a straight upgrade from Airship Captain's Hat.
 +
 +
'''Mid'''
 +
 +
*Angel/Evil Wing Ears: ''Quest item''. +1 [[STR]].
 +
 +
*Crow Tengu Mask: ''Cash shop item''. +2% physical damage, +1% physical ranged damage, if STR is 120 or higher it gives a total of +4% physical damage and +3% on physical ranged damage. Affordable option for any build.
 +
 +
*Robo Eyes: ''Cash shop item''. +2% physical and magic damage and +1 DEX.
 +
 +
'''Low'''
 +
 +
*Gangster's Scarf: ''Cash shop item''. +5 ATK. Ideal choice for Cart Termination, but not much else.
 +
 +
*Cheering Whistle: ''[[Headgear Connoisseur]] item''. +2 STR and chance to autocast [[Magnificat]] Lv. 1 when physically attacking.
 +
 +
*Samurai's Mask: ''[[Headgear Connoisseur]] item''. +1% physical damage.
 +
 +
*Bloodsucker: ''Cash shop item''. Recovers 5% of damage done as HP at a 10% chance, disables natural HP/SP regeneration. Ideal item for survivability and mobbing, it pairs really well with a Rideword Hat, like, a lot.
 +
 +
=== Weapons ===
 +
*Pile Bunker: ''Quest item''. The Mechanic's signature weapon, a mace with a massive 450 ATK. Required to use the skill [[Pile Bunker]].
 +
 +
*Tornado Axe [1]: ''Golden Lockbox item''. Wind element, reduces the delay of [[Axe Tornado]] by one second. Best leveling/farming weapon for Axe Mechanics.
 +
 +
*Pot Doffle's Axe [3]: ''Golden Lockbox/quest item''. Due to it's (relatively) low ATK of 190, it should always be carded with +% cards like Hydra or Abysmal Knight.
 +
 +
*Robot's Mechanical Arm [2]: ''Golden lockbox item''. +20 Critical Rate. Decent weapon, but not ideal.
 +
 +
*Giant Axe[1]: ''Orc Hero drop'', 2H weapon. Increases [[Cart Termination|Cart Termination's]] damage by 15%. Easy and cheap to get, helps a lot with leveling.
 +
 +
*Hurricane Fury[1]: ''Boitata and Gloom Under Night drop'', 2H weapon. Reduces damage from medium-sized foes by 10%. Heavy, good for [[Axe Boomerang]].
 +
 +
=== Defense ===
 +
 +
====Shields====
 +
*Valkyrja's Shield[1]: ''Valkyrie drop'' (not the MVP). +5 MDEF, reduces damage from [[fire]], [[water]], [[undead]] and [[shadow]] properties by 20%.
 +
 +
*Bradium Shield[1]: ''Bradium Golem drop''. Provides an extra +500 HP and more defense than Valkyrja's, best paired with HP cards like Andre Egg to maximize [[Suicidal Destruction]] damage, it also goes really well with Penomena card.
 +
 +
====Garment====
 +
*Nidhoggur's Shadow Garb [1]: ''Nidhoggur's Shadow drop''. Reduces damage received from all [[elements]] by 7%, increases the SP based on refine level ''(Base Level / 3) + (Upgrade * 10)'' and chance to recover SP by %1 of damage done. The standard "go-to" garment.
 +
 +
====Shoes====
 +
*Variant Shoes: ''Beelzebub drop''. 20% HP and SP. Somewhat expensive to get, but can be shared with multiple characters.
 +
 +
*STR/DEX Temporal Boost ''Old Glast Heim tradeable reward''. Best in slot. DEX boots can give you instant cast on [[Repair]] and make FAWs lightning quick to be deployed, while STR can massively boost your attack for Cart Termination, but they're still only worth it if you get higher levels of enchantments.
 +
 +
====Armor====
 +
*Upgraded Armors[1] ''Lockbox drop''. There's a multitude of these. The only real use is to boost HP even further. Pair with a Peco Peco card.
 +
 +
=== Mechanic Set ===
 +
The Mechanic set is a combination of Armor, Garment, Boots and Accessory that provides a high amount of benefits, it is not necessary to wear the whole set to get all the effects, as there are a lot of effects that only needs one or two pieces from the set to be active. All the parts are obtained from Verus monsters.

 +
 +
==== Possible bonus ====
 +
STR + AGI devices: +30ATK
 +
 +
STR + VIT devices: Increases the damage of Axe Tornado by 25%
 +
 +
STR + AGI + VIT + DEX devices: Reduces the cooldown of Axe Boomerang by 2 seconds and increases it's damage by 100%.
 +
 +
== Job Data ==
 +
=== Leika Custom Changes ===
 +
LeikaRO has some modifications on Mechanic's skills, a lot of them on either the emulators or official servers, present bugs or poor effects that makes them either bad or just plain useless. To help Mechanics have more combat options, the modifications are:
 +
 +
*Mado Gear License: Now it's an active skill that lets the Mechanic mounts the Mado from anywhere, except PVP zones, by using 20 fuels. 5 minutes cooldown.
 +
 +
*Axe Tornado: Can be used on Mado Gear.
 +
 +
*Axe Boomerang: Can be used on Mado Gear.
 +
 +
*Power Swing: Can be used on Mado Gear.
 +
 +
*FAW - Silver Sniper: Increased HP, damage and HIT, uses Gunslinger's skill Tracking from time to time (ignores Flee), cannot be damaged by self or allies and can be used from Mado.
 +
 +
*FAW - Magic Decoy: Increased HP and damage, detects hidden enemies, cannot be damaged by self or allies and can be used from Mado.
 +
 +
*Arm Cannon: The official bug that allowed to stack Endow plus Cannonball's element for doubled damage was fixed.
 +
 +
*Weapon Refine is renamed Equipment Refine and can be used to refine armor as well, going all the way up to +20 (using Bradium and Carnium from +10 and up).

Overview

The Mechanic is the Third Job of Blacksmiths and 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 distinct 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 Mado Gear, 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. 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 Jobs, this Job can be very expensive to play and is not recommended as a beginning character.


Job Change Guide

As soon as a Blacksmith has reached 99/50 or a Whitesmith has reached 99/60, both can change to Mechanic on the Job Changer on Prontera, 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 immediately be detected and attacked by Magic Decoy.

As Cart Termination is limited to the human capacity of keeping speed and rhythm, 186 ASPD is the maximum recommended. 120 STR is necessary for using the Temporal Boots of Strenght to get its full bonuses, Bear's Power is the preferable last enchant.

Mado Gear:

  • STR: 10x~12x
  • AGI: 54~64 + (6)
  • VIT: 92 + (8)
  • INT: 6x~8x
  • DEX: 100~120 + (5)
  • LUK: 1~44 + (6)

The new thing for the -Smith Jobs is Mado Gear, 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 Boost Knuckle, a fairly efficient single target skill. both VIT and INT can be boosted to 120~130 to help the skill Suicidal Destruction. Mado Gears cannot be healed by traditional means, so Repair can help a lot. 120 dex with the Temporal Boots of Dexterity will make this build a lot better reducing the fixed cast time of skills like Arm Cannon. Hawkeye is the preferable last enchant to go along spamming Boost Knuckle.

It should also be mentioned that Mado is better for endgame 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 Jobs 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 DPS, they're a close range Job that can be totally nullified by a simple Quagmire. With that in mind, you can invest on skills like Arm Cannon and Suicidal Destruction to help against Bosses that 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.

Equipment

Headgear

Top

  • Airship Captain's Hat[1]: Prontera Princess item. Increases ranged damage by 7%, +1 DEX and +100 HP. An amazing item for Mado Gear builds that can be shared with a lot of other classes.
  • Rideword Hat: Cash shop item. Grants a 5% chance that 8% of physical attack damage will comeback as HP, also a 1% chance that 4% of physical attack damage will comeback as SP. Only really useful when mobbing, but still amazing.
  • Giant Helm[1]: Cash shop item. When equipped alongside Giant Axe[1], it grants an additional 15% damage on Cart Termination, plus +5% on every refine past 4+ the weapon has. Decent option for leveling with an Axe build.
  • Skymel Helmet[1]: Headgear Connoisseur item. +5 MDEF and +7% ranged damage. If refined +7 or more, adds +3% on ranged damage. If you can get it up +7, it's basically a straight upgrade from Airship Captain's Hat.

Mid

  • Angel/Evil Wing Ears: Quest item. +1 STR.
  • Crow Tengu Mask: Cash shop item. +2% physical damage, +1% physical ranged damage, if STR is 120 or higher it gives a total of +4% physical damage and +3% on physical ranged damage. Affordable option for any build.
  • Robo Eyes: Cash shop item. +2% physical and magic damage and +1 DEX.

Low

  • Gangster's Scarf: Cash shop item. +5 ATK. Ideal choice for Cart Termination, but not much else.
  • Bloodsucker: Cash shop item. Recovers 5% of damage done as HP at a 10% chance, disables natural HP/SP regeneration. Ideal item for survivability and mobbing, it pairs really well with a Rideword Hat, like, a lot.

Weapons

  • Pile Bunker: Quest item. The Mechanic's signature weapon, a mace with a massive 450 ATK. Required to use the skill Pile Bunker.
  • Tornado Axe [1]: Golden Lockbox item. Wind element, reduces the delay of Axe Tornado by one second. Best leveling/farming weapon for Axe Mechanics.
  • Pot Doffle's Axe [3]: Golden Lockbox/quest item. Due to it's (relatively) low ATK of 190, it should always be carded with +% cards like Hydra or Abysmal Knight.
  • Robot's Mechanical Arm [2]: Golden lockbox item. +20 Critical Rate. Decent weapon, but not ideal.
  • Giant Axe[1]: Orc Hero drop, 2H weapon. Increases Cart Termination's damage by 15%. Easy and cheap to get, helps a lot with leveling.
  • Hurricane Fury[1]: Boitata and Gloom Under Night drop, 2H weapon. Reduces damage from medium-sized foes by 10%. Heavy, good for Axe Boomerang.

Defense

Shields

  • Valkyrja's Shield[1]: Valkyrie drop (not the MVP). +5 MDEF, reduces damage from fire, water, undead and shadow properties by 20%.
  • Bradium Shield[1]: Bradium Golem drop. Provides an extra +500 HP and more defense than Valkyrja's, best paired with HP cards like Andre Egg to maximize Suicidal Destruction damage, it also goes really well with Penomena card.

Garment

  • Nidhoggur's Shadow Garb [1]: Nidhoggur's Shadow drop. Reduces damage received from all elements by 7%, increases the SP based on refine level (Base Level / 3) + (Upgrade * 10) and chance to recover SP by %1 of damage done. The standard "go-to" garment.

Shoes

  • Variant Shoes: Beelzebub drop. 20% HP and SP. Somewhat expensive to get, but can be shared with multiple characters.
  • STR/DEX Temporal Boost Old Glast Heim tradeable reward. Best in slot. DEX boots can give you instant cast on Repair and make FAWs lightning quick to be deployed, while STR can massively boost your attack for Cart Termination, but they're still only worth it if you get higher levels of enchantments.

Armor

  • Upgraded Armors[1] Lockbox drop. There's a multitude of these. The only real use is to boost HP even further. Pair with a Peco Peco card.

Mechanic Set

The Mechanic set is a combination of Armor, Garment, Boots and Accessory that provides a high amount of benefits, it is not necessary to wear the whole set to get all the effects, as there are a lot of effects that only needs one or two pieces from the set to be active. All the parts are obtained from Verus monsters.

  • STR Supplement Device[1]: The armor. +5% physical damage, every 4 refines increases the damage the bonus by 1%.
  • VIT Supplement Device[1]: The garment. +6% HP, every 2 refines increase the HP bonus 1%. If refined 9+, it provides +50% HP recover.
  • AGI Supplement Device[1]: The shoes. +5% ASPD, every 4 refines increase the ASPD bonus by 1.
  • DEX Supplement Device[1] The Accessory. Variable Cast Time -10%, After Cast delay -10% and reduces SP consumption by 10%.

Possible bonus

STR + AGI devices: +30ATK

STR + VIT devices: Increases the damage of Axe Tornado by 25%

STR + AGI + VIT + DEX devices: Reduces the cooldown of Axe Boomerang by 2 seconds and increases it's damage by 100%.

Leika Custom Changes

LeikaRO has some modifications on Mechanic's skills, a lot of them on either the emulators or official servers, present bugs or poor effects that makes them either bad or just plain useless. To help Mechanics have more combat options, the modifications are:

  • Mado Gear License: Now it's an active skill that lets the Mechanic mounts the Mado from anywhere, except PVP zones, by using 20 fuels. 5 minutes cooldown.
  • Axe Tornado: Can be used on Mado Gear.
  • Axe Boomerang: Can be used on Mado Gear.
  • Power Swing: Can be used on Mado Gear.
  • FAW - Silver Sniper: Increased HP, damage and HIT, uses Gunslinger's skill Tracking from time to time (ignores Flee), cannot be damaged by self or allies and can be used from Mado.
  • FAW - Magic Decoy: Increased HP and damage, detects hidden enemies, cannot be damaged by self or allies and can be used from Mado.
  • Arm Cannon: The official bug that allowed to stack Endow plus Cannonball's element for doubled damage was fixed.
  • Weapon Refine is renamed Equipment Refine and can be used to refine armor as well, going all the way up to +20 (using Bradium and Carnium from +10 and up).
