Your SR Guide by Arun

Recommended Posts

Heya, here's Arun, I thought I'll make a SR guide because the last one is now older than a year.

 

Soul Reaper is my main class besides Sura and like Sura very versatile. It has high survivability while doing good damage.

It is a Magic Class tho, so equipment will get expensive for some parts.

If you're starting out on SMRO, I can't recommend playing SR, because it requires much gear before it gets strong for Endgame stuff.

But with the right Gear, you can solo nearly everything.It's also awesome for Fortessa Pit, because SR can't get dispelled by Griefs.

Stats and Skills:

Spoiler

Stats should be covered as followed:

Spoiler

STR: Depends on you, you only need STR for Weight Limit
AGI: You want to reach 193 ASPD, SR depends purely on ASPD and doesn't need ACD
Vit: Depends, again, on you - you want at least 100 with bonus, for stun immunity
Int: Now we're talking, this is the MAIN stat of SR, increasing this will increase your damage you want at least 120 but dont spend too much, 120 - 130 is very expensive
Dex: 120, for Temporal Dex Boots, nothing more to see here
Luk: This for my part is a filler, if i have points to give after statting every other stat, I put em in Luk, because a bit Perfect Dodge and extra Matk doesn't hurt

Important Skills:

Spoiler

image.png.c781fde020e8116b6c42b704723047b9.png Espa
This is your main damage skill, it's single target and requires nothing more than having SP.

image.png.54e20f99acab2856a43eb483b231a57f.png Eswhoo
This is your AoE attack, it's a "combo skill" that must be used after Espa in this case to be used at all, it consumed 1 soul.

image.png.e100c80ac14dcb10eaa849debf479944.png Soul Collect
Now comes the "Soul System", a good friend and your worst enemy, this skill is one of the 2 ways to get souls. At level 5 you get 1 soul every 20 seconds.

image.png.9c8ce3675dec533039afbe2618cd9f5d.png Soul Reap
This is the skill thats the reason for the "Soul System" for being your best friend as well as worst enemy, every attack, no matter physical or magic, has a 35% chance to give you a soul.
You need 2 Souls to use this Skill and the duration is 210 seconds. Its cooldown is nearly as long and will only be reduced by Soul Reaper Shadow Shoes.
So when you die, you first need to activate Soul Collect, then wait 40 seconds to have 2 souls and hope that the cooldown is over.

image.png.8f50eed05c93fe88248f907978e67ecf.png Kaahi
A Soul Linker skill, that was strong in my eyes since I first played Soul Linker. Depending on what skilllevel you choose.
It heals you for a fixed amount for every enemy attack, no matter if it hits or not.

image.png.c98d4ff7703b048c3bfcb24aa2178be0.png Kaizel
Kaahi and Kaizel, a package way to strong for one class. Kaizel is a buff, that resurrects you when you die, instantly.

image.png.decd9d588793650b54c9a9965fd0fd2d.png Kaupe
One of my favourites - It dodges the next attack that would hit you. It even dodges magic.
Dodging cancels the buff, but it's only triggered if you dodge an attack that would've hit after bypassing your flee.

image.png.2eea356723dbf20a9300889b3de7f205.pngTumbling
A buff, that doesn't cancel, except you relog. It gives a passive 20% chance to dodge long range attacks.

image.png.245b1c18264dfff1ce5b05de7b0b4999.png Mild Wind
This skill is the reason why Taekwon Classes are versatile in elements. Every skilllevel gives you another element.
Level 1: Earth
Level 2: Wind
Level 3: Water
Level 4: Fire
Level 5: Ghost
Level 6: Dark
Level 7: Holy

image.png.aa5dafada70d052bb44e7eb82d0f960f.png Fairy's Soul
Another skill, that consumes a soul. Fairy soul is a flat +50 Matk buff, which is a good option in party settings but for soloing stuff i would recommend:

image.png.670b23cb666bb989685c494d81cc6c51.png Golem's Soul
Like Fairy's Soul, it consumes a soul. This skill is a buff, that gives 300 Def and 40 Mdef, which makes you a total tank paired with Kaahi.

image.png.4ce8c86eaf841eb8062617e190759ce9.png Shadow Soul
This is an option, if you won't hit 193 ASPD in any other way. It gives +3 ASPD at lvl 5 and +20 Crit, so RK and GX will like you for it.

image.png.1c0cb33f63daa35adbb78eeaba496935.png Kaute
Like every Magic Class does, SR shreds through SP, this is a nice way to recover it, but it's not perfect. You give up 5 souls and 20% HP for 20% SP.

In the end, your skills should look like this:

 

Gear, and the beginning of seeing your wallet cry:

image.png.10d44eb6ecd669836c57acf53bd84bd8.png Taekwon Shadow Weapon + image.png.1fab317f8a3a674b849c7ed042819c3b.png Taekwon Shadow Shield: +10, either enchant them with +1 ASPD, 3% Matk or Boss Mdef Pierce

You want in Total:
Instacast (Easy)
193 ASPD
100% Boss Mdef Pierce (This might be only possible with Vesper Card)

Additional Information:

Spoiler

"Useless" Skills

Spoiler

There are some skills, which in theory look nice from what they're doing, but they were made pre-renewal so they don't work properly above lvl 99.
Affected are:

image.png.b884bf3005dda7adad57fd228ee463a0.png Eska

image.png.9489cd8bb38d5108613cf9430eef7c3a.png Eswoo

image.png.3dfa0178ac8ffd0d4197979bb9de0921.png Eske

image.png.a9db2e680abe98f87780641ed1c9e1d5.png Kaite - It's good in pvp (imagine playing pvp) but on monsters over lvl 99, it will NOT reflect Magic, instead, it will prevent you from being healed and buffed.
        You also take more damage than usual.

SR Passive:

Spoiler

Dispel Immunity
For some reason I still don't understand SR has a Dispel immunity.
So you don't need to worry ever losing your buffs except to them running out or dying.

SR PvP:

Spoiler

If you're at this point, I'm questioning your sanity.
SR is in my opinion a pure PvE class, due to Espa and Eshwoo not working in PvP.
There is still Curse Explosion, which works in PvP, but the design behind this skill just doesn't look good enough to compare to a GX or Sura a this point.
And tbh, when you want to play a magic class in PvP, go for every other magic class (NOT SN) and you're better off than with SR.

Class Soul Link:

Spoiler

Soul Linker has some Skills, that buff a specific class in a specific way.
There are one for every class, except Ninja, Gunslinger and Doram Classes.
I will list here the most useful ones:

image.png.e98f4ad12f75f5fdd7aa1acf1a1941b2.png Rogue Spirit
Mostly because of Pit Tanking. If a Shadow Chaser is buffed with this, it's transformed to one of the best, if not even the best, Tanks in the entire game.
This is, because Rogue Spirit gives Dispel immunity. So Rogue's can stack Buffs like Guard, Reject Sword and whatsoever.

image.png.ddfc7f78d83046dd1cf738c2be561492.png Bard and Dancer Spirit
This Buff is only useful, if your Party only has one type of performer.
Its effect is, that either the bard or dancer gets the other classes songs unlocked, but only if they have their Song skilled to lvl 10
The skills unlocked are like this:

image.png.75bff9d9eb1723ff940fd1e66e46f505.png Perfect Tablature with image.png.f106b8687d46c23f5fa6705e45438cbf.png Focus Ballet

image.png.6a118865f426c7daa3838d2bd5aa5781.png Impressive Riff with image.png.3ae1fb591b1cbcf43acd97391533597f.png Slow Grace

image.png.642e69636e4d4ffdc10f85f0fdfd3058.png Magic Strings with image.png.3586f3adf247957318d6b49b1751f8b5.png Lady Luck

image.png.0855dc4cb2be82e939120e60c663997f.png Song of Lutie with image.png.702c4a9cdd073eabb5e6b331e2f64a22.png Gypsy's Kiss

and the other way around.

 

If you have any other questions about this or stuff thats missing, hit me up on discord.

Just an addition to garment cards; Arc Elder is the earth version of the nightmare ancient mummy, deep sea phen is the wind, faceworm larva is the water, purple pitaya is the neutral, yellow pitaya is the holy and deep sea witch is the fire/dark mvp garment card. There is currently no garment card for ghost =/. For shoes theres also the gmt cards and one or two of the 17.2 cards, tho nightmare verit just saves you the hassle imo. Other wide good job with the guide =D
