DISCONTINUATION NOTICE: Unless I begin to play Rappelz actively in the future, I will not continue to update this thread. I know that I never truly made a final Epic 5 release of these builds but it seems like there is some great discussion on the topic. Please feel free to continue the discussion here, but I will not be updating the main post. Thank you all for your excellent contributions and continue to have fun in Rappelz. NOTICE: (from earlier) This guide is NOT final, and for now, is not up-to-date. MP issues are a primary concern in Epic 5 and the builds listed here do not address MP management. Please see the last few pages of discussion for some thoughts and ideas on addressing MP issues in your pet's build. Once again, this guide is NOT tested. It is meant to show possible Epic 5 pet builds. When Epic 5 is released, some or all of the builds will be updated dramatically. DISCLAIMER: The information posted here is as accurate as I have been able to find. However, until Epic 5 has arrived on the US servers and can be verified, please be aware that errors may very well exist in this guide. Also, I am only posting builds that I have made for myself so that others might get some use out of them. I WILL NOT DESIGN BUILDS BY REQUEST SO DO NOT POST SPECIAL BUILD REQUESTS. Please feel free to discuss, criticize or correct the builds I have posted, but do not expect me to make a custom build to suit your own needs. SOURCE: The pet skills listed here were posted on the Alizarin HQ forums as translated from Korean sources. Introduction: In Epic 5, most pets have very similar skill sets. This is very different than Epic 4. Since many pets use almost the exact same skills, general build designs can be applied to many pets. A tank build can be applied to a yeti, orc, or skeleton and achieve somewhat similar results. A purely offensive build can also be applied in the same manner. The variety of pet will affect the base stats of the creature and the flavor of debuff, unity toggle and other unique skills. It is still important to pick the right pet for what you wish to accomplish, and certain builds will work best for certain pets. I will make pet recommendations for each build. It is important to remember that the different pets have different "flavors" of many skills. Kentas may focus their skills around P. Attack and Strength modifiers, while Yetis will focus their skills around P. Defense and Vitality modifiers. Also, the teirs of pet rarity will affect the power of certain skills. The skill effects of rare pets will usually be much more powerful than the same skill effects of NPC pets. A generic skills list is provided at the bottom of the guide. This applies to most melee-type pets. I will NOT list pet-specific skills charts or skill statistics in this guide. Please look elsewhere for this information. Builds: The builds listed here are what I believe to be excellent builds to suit various purposes. JP in Epic 5 is extremely tight and not all desired skills can be incorporated into every build. Some skills must be discarded in favor of others. The builds listed assume fully overbred pets are being skilled. Non-OB pets will need to make further sacrifices. For each build there are recommended skills listed in black and optional skills denoted with **. Not all optional skills may be learned. It is suggested that the combined total of Evolution One and Evolution Two skills costs not exceed 110 JP. Some extra JP may be left over after following a build and the player may use it in whatever skill he/she thinks is best. Before following any build, it is highly recommended that the player understand his/her pet and it's specific skillset. It is also important that the player understand what the skills being learned do and why. Anyone complaining that I have somehow screwed up their pet because they did not know what the hell they were doing will be laughed at. Pet-Class Tanker/DD Build [5-10-08] This build is most suitable for yetis, orcs and hawks. It will give the pet high passive stats and threat increasing skills. The pet will have the 2-hit and debuff damaging skills to increase damage output and OB Vitality for extra defense. Since the build is designed for a pet class, the JP for max HP and HP regeneration was skipped in order to maximize more important skills for incoming damage reduction and damage output. Options (marked **): The threat increase toggle only needs to be high enough to allow the pet to control aggro over its competition. It is suggested that the user test this skill to find the lowest suitable level of this skill in order to save JP. The production skill is not necessary to this build, but some players may want it. EVOLUTION ONE Lv 1. 1 JP, 1 level. Creature Item Expert. Lv 1. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Attack Passive. Lv 1. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Defense Passive. Lv 10. 5 JP, 5 levels 2-Hit Attack Skill - 15sec Cool. ** Lv 15. 5 JP, 5 levels Threat Increase Toggle. Lv 20. 5 JP, 5 levels Debuff Attack - 10sec Debuff, 30sec Cool. ** Lv 30. 2 JP, 1 level Stun Attack/Charge - 2sec Stun, 1min Cool. ** Lv 40. 2 JP, 1 level Equipment Unit Skill. Lv 45. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Unity Toggle. Lv 51. 10 JP, 10 levels OB Vitality - +1 Vitality. Total: 51 JP (plus 0-9 optionals) EVOLUTION TWO Lv 50. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Attack Passive. Lv 50. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Defense Passive. ** Lv 50. 1 JP, 1 level Pet Production Skill - 12hour Cool. ** Lv 50. 2 JP, 1 level Pet Prod. Usage Skill - 10sec, 20min Cool.

Lv 90. 2 JP, 1 level Equipment Unit Skill. Lv 95. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Unity Toggle. Lv 101. 10 JP, 10 levels OB Vitality - +1 Vitality. Total: 103 JP (plus 0-17 optionals) EVOLUTION THREE Lv 100. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Attack Passive. Lv 100. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Defense Passive. Lv 110. 5 JP, 5 levels 2-Hit Attack Skill - 15sec Cool. ** Lv 115. 5 JP, 5 levels Threat Increase Toggle. Lv 120. 5 JP, 5 levels Debuff Attack - 10sec Debuff, 30sec Cool. Lv 145. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Unity Toggle. Lv 150. 10 JP, 5 levels AOE Attack Skill. Total: 153 JP (plus 0-22 optionals) ALTERNATIVES - 8 JP for Evo 1 and 2 Threat Increase Toggle and 2 JP for Evo 1 equipment unity can be traded for 10 JP accuracy (+15). - OB Vitality can be traded for OB Strength or Evo 2 and Evo 3 3-hit attack skill to increase damage. - OB Vitality can be traded for Pet Inspiration (Evo 2 and 3) for players who want to maximize party effectiveness. The Glass Cannon [5-11-08] This build is most suitable for Pantera, Skeleton, Orc, Hawk, Kenta or any other high-damage pet. The build maximizes all of the big nuke attacks and also puts a few points into pet accuracy. There are no JP leftover for defense oriented skills, but Orcs and Hawks are attack/defense hybrids and will be a bit less powerful and a bit more sturdy with this build. A pet class can utilize this build in a non-tanking pet to provide maximum damage output while the tanking pet keeps the enemy locked with his +threat toggle. Non-pet classes will just have to hope that their Glass Cannon pet does not pull aggro because it will die rather swiftly. The build for a Red Pixie will be very similar to this build, using all nukes and attack skills and substituting O.B. Int or Max HP for O.B. Strength. Red Pixies may need to be heavily altered in order to take advantage of fear which will cost 10 JP per Evolution to max. Options (marked **): Stun and stun charge are optional. This skill does not add a lot of damage but is very useful for utility because you can lock down a target for a few seconds while firing off your biggest nukes. The evo 2 equipment unit skill *may* be optional for orcs or hawks or panteras who choose to use a bow over a melee weapon for maximum nuke potential and increased accuracy. Bow using pets will want OB dexterity instead of strength and may choose not to spend 10 JP on accuracy. The production skill is optional. EVOLUTION ONE Lv 1. 1 JP, 1 level. Creature Item Expert. Lv 1. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Attack Passive. Lv 10. 5 JP, 5 levels 2-Hit Attack Skill - 15sec Cool. Lv 20. 5 JP, 5 levels Debuff Attack - 10sec Debuff, 30sec Cool. ** Lv 30. 2 JP, 1 level Stun Attack/Charge - 2sec Stun, 1min Cool. Lv 45. 10 JP, 5 levels Accuracy Increase - +3 Accuracy.

Lv 140. 10 JP, 5 levels. 3-Hit Attack Skill - 3min Cool. Lv 145. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Unity Toggle. Lv 150. 10 JP, 5 levels AOE Attack Skill. Total: 173 JP (plus 0-5 optionals) ALTERNATIVES - Evo 2 and 3 Pet Inspiration (20 JP) may be traded for the Accuracy Passive. This will reduce spike damage and increase average damage. - OB Strength (20 JP) and Pet Inspiration (20 JP) may be traded for more cost-effective skills such as Defense Passive (30 JP) or Max HP Increase (10-15 JP) or Evo 1 Equipment Unit (2 JP) which will add 10% HP with the primary armor type. Party Support Pet [5-26-08] This build is most suitable for orcs, yetis, hawks, or skeletons on non-pet class players in a DP situation. The build focuses on providing access to party buffs such as the Pet Inspiration skill and the Pet Production Use skill. The pet will have Maximum HP increase to help it survive occasional aggro and can have skills such as the debuff attack and stun to help reduce enemy effectiveness. This build is lacking in accuracy increasing skills and may not allow the pet to hit very well against higher level mobs or in PvP situations. There are ideas listed in the Alternatives section for how to address this. An alternative is also given to suit this build for a pet class. Options (marked **): The stun charge and Production Use skills are optional. EVOLUTION ONE Lv 1. 1 JP, 1 level. Creature Item Expert. Lv 1. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Attack Passive. Lv 1. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Defense Passive. Lv 10. 5 JP, 5 levels 2-Hit Attack Skill - 15sec Cool. Lv 20. 5 JP, 5 levels Max HP Increase. Lv 20. 5 JP, 5 levels Debuff Attack - 10sec Debuff, 30sec Cool. ** Lv 30. 2 JP, 1 level Stun Attack/Charge - 2sec Stun, 1min Cool. Lv 40. 2 JP, 1 level Equipment Unit Skill. Lv 45. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Unity Toggle. Total: 48 JP (plus 0-2 optionals) EVOLUTION TWO Lv 50. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Attack Passive. Lv 50. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Defense Passive. Lv 50. 1 JP, 1 level Pet Production Skill - 12hour Cool. ** Lv 50. 2 JP, 1 level Pet Prod. Usage Skill - 10sec, 20min Cool. Lv 60. 5 JP, 5 levels 2-Hit Attack Skill - 15sec Cool. Lv 70. 5 JP, 5 levels Max HP Increase. Lv 70. 5 JP, 5 levels Debuff Attack - 10sec Debuff, 30sec Cool. Lv 85. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Inspiration - 10secDuratn.,20minCool. Lv 90. 2 JP, 1 level Equipment Unit Skill. Lv 95. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Unity Toggle. Total: 106 JP (plus 0-4 optionals) EVOLUTION THREE Lv 100. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Attack Passive. Lv 100. 10 JP, 10 levels Physical Defense Passive. Lv 110. 5 JP, 5 levels 2-Hit Attack Skill - 15sec Cool. Lv 120. 5 JP, 5 levels Max HP Increase. Lv 120. 5 JP, 5 levels Debuff Attack - 10sec Debuff, 30sec Cool. Lv 135. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Inspiration - 10sec Duratn., 20min Cool. Lv 145. 10 JP, 5 levels Pet Unity Toggle. Lv 150. 10 JP, 5 levels AOE Attack Skill. Total: 171 JP (plus 0-4 optionals) ALTERNATIVES - 10-14 JP for the Debuff Attack skill can be used for the Accuracy Increase Passive. - Pet Classes may use the 15 JP for Max HP on Accuracy instead. Support/Combat Siren [5-17-08] This is a build I am considering for my siren for use as a secondary pet for a Soulbreeder. The siren will focus on both melee attacks and magic damage-over-time (DoT) attacks. The siren will substantially reduce the incoming damage by debuffing the enemy's accuracy greatly. Although the siren's attack skills are magic-based, it will be important to maximize the siren's normal attack damage as well. I will do this with O.B. Strength while wielding a two-handed mace. This siren is not suited for PvP purposes because of the lack of Fear and O.B. Intelligence. Options (marked **): I have not decided on options yet. EVOLUTION ONE Lv 1. 1 JP, 1 level.
