Death Valley Character name:—Heartless, level 35

OK, here we go ---->

Shaolin’ little detail:
-Highest HP rating in 9 class
-Highest Defense in 9 class
-Skill have high delay
-Have the lowest accuary and evade in 9 class
-Have the lowest number of attack skill - 4
-Have the most defensive buff
-In a 6vs6 fight, opposite side will tend to kill Shaolin last, because of its tremendous HP---What to up ?---

Stamina, Strength or Agility ?

Shaolin gain the Most HP per stamina point in the 9 class—around 80 – 82 drop. While class such as Pyro gain around 58-60. Level up point should all be add to Stamina. Mean while, Shaolin gain the least accuracy and evasion point per Agility point. Think of it this way, Shaolin is a Giant, Slow moving Golem. Lack of speed made up by huge HP. For example, 2 of my friend who is level 100 and both have all all 7 level 6 Stamina Gem carve in them, they wear same cloth, but my Shaolin friend has 232k HP, while the other friend, who is Pyromancer only have 166K

Which Skill Book to up ?

Book 3 from Shaolin aren’t really useful, only against fighting boss. You can stop up its feat after you learn Refection, then continue to up its feat when you reach 89. Keep book 1,4,5 on top of your list, because Book 1 contain Tiger Fist, your basic attack and Book 5 will also increase damage, Book 4 will increase your defense. Next book to up is Book 2, it contain some important skill in pvp – fast running and defense buff. So finally in order of priority- 1,5,4,2,3,6

Pet

Pet choice for Shao is a pet that can dish out lots of damage, like Tiger or Boar, but not Dog (Dog has skill Loyalty, which is a defensive skill). It is better if the pet is Spi Attacker like Penguin, Parrot, Worms. In Dragon Oath, Pet that are Spi Attacker will always does more damages against 95% monster than Phys Attacker. Same rule against human, when they get to high level, the spi defense will rise higher than physical defense. In sp attacker at low level there spi defense is higher then defense, but that will change in the future

Who do I talk to to learn the leap skill? I don't see it on this page, or in any of the books at the skill master. Is there a different npc I need to talk to? I am lvl 22, and I got a quest at lvl 15 that needed leap, so I'm sure it must be available somewhere, but I cannot find it. Please help me.

[punksush1]

this is a protection paladin if you play world of warcraft:p

You can learn Leap from Leap Master, I think he's called. You do have a normal leap, just go to skills and first tab there is novice Leap.

Thanks for all the work here. Much appreciated!

For team play you are going to find that the Shaolin are the best meatshields of all the classes. After level 30, you can choose where you put your stat points. I believe this was put in intentionally so players can't gimp the other stats early on and end up having a build that is completely off balance (an all-HP that never hits opponents).

Adding all your points to stamina is not a bad idea, and having gear that boosts stamina ain't bad either. If you feel like "doping" your build with other stats, that is your own business but if you read the guides, you'll understand that hp is basically the only sturdy stat advantage Shaolin has. The other advantages are abilities which obviously lean more toward tanking than anything else.

Thank u very much! that was i want to know, u help me a lot :)

you get a level 4 sack & Grid from you gift pack

I asked this question before, well more on the lines are there higher then Lv 4, one player said they have a Lv 8.
Seems you do not find the lv 5's dropping till after you reach lv50 mobs, but as far as I know there is no place but Players shops to get a sack , of any lvl.

[cientificocarlos]

You do get lvl 1 and lvl 2 as drops from sand wolves ad sand panthers. rare drop but maybe one every 30 or 40 kills. At least I did. Since they are only +1 and +2 not really worth mentioning really so I guess you can ignore this whole comment. The one from the gift pack is made from Hemp too.

[Hold]

wow nice guide i learned from it alot Thx alot!!

Kinda disappointing at Shaolin a little because the book skill lv 45. Other classes like beggar their skill for that is like stun for 2 seconds and decrease the target speed by 50% for 10 sec. And Shaolin only lure mobs what a joke lol.

Phys defense should work on melee mobs (with is 95% of all monster existed) ..... and work only on Shaolin, Pyro, Assassin, Beggar and a bit of Royalty.

[DickTracy]

mmmm I think tht debuff must work and gonna and gotta work on pvp against all classes not only the meele ones as infact slam atack phy def debuff works over all em

[Painrinnegan]

hello, why does this dharma martial costs like hell?

[DickTracy]

Righteous Defense is called the Lv 45 skill with tiger face....

Id like to know about the lv 80 skil just know is a def skil that reduce damage received as divine shiled but mp instead of rage

[SlashMan]

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m307/hieutran9/Shao20.jpg

-Tiger ???-


the name of that skill is Righteous Defense :)

If you want know the effect: Mock a single target,commanding up to enemies attacking self. The higher your skills feats are, the higher monster's level that you can cause effect to. (lure ¬¬")

And that skill is already droping on mt fire rock bosses, with a LITTLE drop rate

[SlashMan]

...
Id like to know about the lv 80 skil just know is a def skil that reduce damage received as divine shiled but mp instead of rage

i want an attack skill not another buff ¬¬":(

[DickTracy]

Not sure at all but Ive heard the skill 45 was modified to decress target phy def also besides just luring it... However is tht mod was currently applied on china or vn or any server with skill 45.. Oh well all servers except ours... However it just works for mobs... So lame it should be good it also decress player phy def... But if it is on it works just for mobs :(


Otherwise i just dont get the skill name for english version when is just a lurin skill ... Righteous Defense wth where is the defense?

[SlashMan]

Righteous Defense wth where is the defense?

lmfao -message to short-

[DickTracy]

Well after so long I havent seen any debuffing modification made to the Skill Lv 45... Kinda a joke of skill...


Limit Break... I just cant get this xx%, as for what Ive noticed its applied to the amount of Stamina you have more than just your whole hp.

Curious how the hp xx% healing tends to vary depends on if you are full hp or half hp...

If you use it being full hp the healin amount its lower than if you use it half hp... The thing is the incressing amout is still the same, should be higher if adds a higher amount when youre half life.

Its good but its curious how heals more when youre not full life... :D

[KingzRicky]

This is a good guide. Finally found what order to put my books in.

[DickTracy]

Well actually, If you dont mind my humble opinnion after many years playing Shaolin PvP/PvE, actually theres not really really a set order to book up. All books are really important and one than another comes more handfully in one or another situation or versus one or another class or classes. You along time will prolly find your own set books order. Maybe if starting up yeah this one said here could be a good order thou even may vary up to your needs...

But talking at higher Lvs perhaps about Lv 8x or more suitable at Lv 9xs and on. The main books in my opinion are:

Book 1: Incress HIT and your DPS, plus Buddhas Blessing Sta Buff and Heroic Strike Damage

Book 7: Incress CRI HIT and CRI DEF, plus Limit Break xx% HP Healing/Increassing, Rightheous Defese Lv Taunting and Def Debuff and Lv 80 skill xx% Damage Reduction.

Book 4: Iron Shroud; Incress Resistances and Divine Intervention; Makes you almost Unstoppable for 30 secs, really important PvP skills, Slam Attack also incress Damage, xx% and Def Debuff effect. This Book incress Phy. Def but thats not so important for the class who already has the highest.

This Book provides the Deffense Stance: Best Stances in most PvP Cases specially against most Range Attackers. Its a must vs Minstrels, Taoists and Voodoos. Optional vs Lotus, Royalty and others Physical Attack Classes.

The optionability depends on how much damage you can mitigate from your opponent and how much damage you deal to them. But however anycase this Stance will never let you down.

Book 5: Conscreation; Incress your damage xx%, Focuse Power; Incress your Cri Hit, Split Palm; Incress Damage, xx% Slow enemy 40%. Important skills both PvP/PvE. This book Increass your Physical Attack.

This Book provides the Offensive Stance: Mostly handfull on PvE since incress your damage and cri hit. But comes also really great vs Physical Attack Classes and Royalty when you need a bit more damage to take them down ASAP. Currently this Stance is the best going vs Lotus but it will depends on how much damage can you mitigate from them as well this stance will relay a lot on your Book 6; since Dispel will be your only counter against Blind.

Book 3: Incress your HP; you may think not alot but believe me Limit Break will profit from it. Purify and Reflection, wonderfull Skills very handly in many situations.

Book 2: Incress your Reflex, also contains your most damaging skill, Forcefull Palm, and 3 other great PvP skills Wind Walk, Lotus Finger and Spirit Shield.

Book 6: After Lv 60 this book lose its utility almost by complete, but if you're planning to kill Lotus, then you must keep it up. Dispel, its the great skill make this book worth keep it up, since Divine Shield after unlocked at Lv 60 doesnt change after that. And Buddhas Palms thou its a great damaging skill sadly became mostly useless, since its better to save full rage for Divine Shield or Dispel.


This in my oppinion after so long playing and mostly pvping is what the modern ages requires from a Shaolin to be on. :cool:

But as I said before, each Shaolin must find its own way, its own path. This is how I found it and it came perfect to me and my playstyle. So this is just some words of wisdom to light you on and help you find your own path. :D
