Maybe I'm just playing it all wrong. So how exactly is he set up? Similar to an NL?
If so, dexless the way to go?

all luk baby. Be sure to have the right spells stolen though for maximum Phantomness
1: Haste, Magic Guard, Iron Body, Dark Sight
2: Dark Clarity, Hyper Body, Rage, Threaten
3: Holy Symbol, Combo Attack, Magic Guard
4: Dark Harmony/Sharp Eyes, Rapid Fire

Now how does one obtain said spells? I haven't gone into depth with it.

Made it to level 30 on my Phantom. Enjoyable thus far.
Thinking about picking up 100k NX tomorrow, any idea what I should buy?

You have a skill called Skill Swipe, you go into like a cursor mode where u can click on a player and u get a loadout of their spells.

100k nx can provide you with some cool stuff, should get your evolving rings as they'll carry through with you until late game, can just trade them freely when you replace them, and are pretty stable in price. some 15 work gloves are good too, as those are always in demand as well.

Figured all that out pretty quickly.

Blah. I still don't know what to buy myself. I mean, I can always waste it on NX clothes and look pimp, or spend it on random crap and press my luck on the gacha or style boxes.

Bought 100k NX for the luls. What to buy, what to buy.

Sell the nx for 5b, buy leet gear.

....................................... What..............

Obviously should be selling me NX cards.

come to arcania bro
