Hello. I made a paragon about a month ago, and I got him to the Venta Cementary mission. Then I stopped playing him for a while. Now I need a good build and need to decide a new secondary proffession. Any ideas?

Tip: you can get Save Yourselves! from the faction rewards guy in your guild hall, provided you have Factions and have at least r1 kurz/lux.

I'm with Lumi on this one, in HM I'd agree with Rhamia to just run an imbagon, but for NM a simple spear build using something like [[Cruel Spear] or [[Stunning Strike] will do just fine and dandy. You can get Cruel Spear basically the second you hit mainland so that's probably what I'd look at.

Also, you can't get Focused Anger until you're in Vabbi since it's in the explorable Bahdok Caverns. Barring Elite Para tomes of course. If you do plan on doing HM stuff with him, practice what Rhamia said in NM until you're good at it, then take it to HM.

I've been skill capping on my para, which means a lot of time not being /W. I've been running either [[Cruel spear] or [[Stunning strike], and while they're not as powerful as an imbagon (the save yourselves spammer), In normal mode they're actually good and, as is unusual for my para, fun!
[Spear of Fury][Cruel spear][Anthem of weariness][aggressive refrain]Makes for a fun build. bring another source of DW if you run Stunning strike

I use this, doesn' t necessarily need pve only skills and is still rather sexy:
Soldier's Fury
"Watch Yourself!"
"To The Limit!"
Disrupting Throw
Blazing Spear
Vicious Attack
Barbed Spear
Rezzzz

Sometimes I take 2 para's and chain "Stand Your Ground!", which gives even better armor then WY. I agree that the aforementioned build is stronger, but some people don' t have access to PVE skills, besides the dps from this build is pwnsauce. I just don' t use pve skills unless I' m really desperate. The build a few posts back is a drag to play (upkeeping AR is annoooooying)

Why run cruel spear when godmode means you can take a heavy damage dealer such as a critscythe running WS? Paras are the best at spamming SY as they are constantly in range to hit something, getting often 100% uptime with just 4 second SY. Besides, when melee mobs can hit for 300-400 in one hit, particularly in places like urgoz, when you can have aggro of up to 20 mobs at once, it's kinda foolish to run without one, unless you are running cryway, which is just tank'n'spank anyway.

Example being 'The para's FoW armor looks sweet', or 'Male para's dance emote sucks'. Also, it's than, not then. Then is used to show the next part of a list of actions, such as 'First you need to get down EoE, then go and kill Urgoz'.

grammar plox?

WY =/= SY.

[Watch Yourself!] =/= [Save Yourselves!]

If you're going to flame at least know what he's referring to.

[focused anger] isn't necessary at higher ranks for 100% SY! uptime, and other Elites (*cough*[stunning strike]*cough*) are a lot more interesting.
