All you will need is good luck, it's not based on skill or gear.

Dear diary..

I'm constantly getting reminded of "LS" through my guild and my friends..
I want to try LS, but I don't know shit about it =(!
Again, sir Diary, I have no idea what to start as,
and further more: what my up-comming char should wear..

Diary, what should I do!?
Wish someone could help me

(anyone ?)

pmd what i know about the basics

PM'd

Ladder Slasher is a game of climbing and doing master questes.

Basic:

You can climb on your own as you do now, or you can try to create or join a group and together with others climb till lvl 71. Once you get there, and make sure all the others are also 71, leave the catacomb group and click master quest.
Master Quest is just some keys and a door, if you drag drop the right key you will open the first door, then you have to choose between the 2 keys left. If you again choose the right one you will only have one left and that means you have passed.
Passing a mq means you unluck the next secret character which in your case propably would be samurai. Now you have to do the same with the samurai, and if you pass again you will get another character. Remember that every second new character will make an additional key appear. When you have the last character there is 6 keys i think. That means the chances of passing is like 1/720. If you pass this you will reset the ladder and everybody is starting over. If you fail you should just roll the newest character you have and try again till you pass. When you attemp a mq you will get a gp if you fail and if you pass you will get some more.

Items:

While climbing you can collect items to sell to others or use urself if they are better than what you are using already. Items can have attributes such as strength and enhanced effect. Items also have levels and magical levels. magical levels will tell you how many attributes the item will hold and normal level will tell you the level of an item. The higher the better eg;: Arcane Oak Club. = 6 attributes and you must be lvl 5 to use this. Way better than a lvl 0 item.
You can also find "white" items which are items without attributes. You can save these to "identify" later on. You can identify them in the pool you find in the catacombs sometimes.

Hi, straight question, i have a fighter lvl15 prolly messed up stats and other things too, ecaping from catacombs all the time to heal myself, can someone give me advice about armors and weapons i need to make this game work.

ya thats what i did this morning>i dont know how use charms or anything>i just click on the monsters till they die>and i caught a couple of fish with a lender rod>also you dont seem to be able to hold much>ive been either sacrificing gear to the shrine to speed up life recovery or just throwing in the bucket >guess i need do some more exploring try fig out some more

ok, what i mean is, i dont have much fg, and i could use some info with whom i should start and which gear, as cheap as possible.
ty to anyone who takes time for answer me

I would go Melee. Pick either Fighter or Barbarian as they are solid choices, they can use any type of Armor and Charm, but are slightly more limited on Weapons.

You can stat STRENGTH as well as use STRENGTH gear on either and be fine with any of the following weapons: Sword, Club, and Axe.

(if using Axe, you can add some Dexterity as well, but you don't have to, all Strength will work)


As far as Abilities, I like Knockdown, Bottomsup, Powerstrike, or even Multistrike when using a Melee class such as Fighter or Barbarian. You can use up to three, and you are not forced to use your class specific abilities.

As for gear, use Sword, Club, or Axe (or a mix of them) with as high Enhanced Effect as you can afford ("EE" on weapons adds damage to the weapon so it is most important)

For armor, you can use Enhanced Effect armors ("EE" on armor adds defense) or Strength armors (+Strength will add damage to your weapons)

For charm, any old Strength charm will work, bonus if it has +Life or some other nice mod on it.


Upgrade weapons whenever you can, they are your priority. Armor comes next, then charm last. You can get by with just one or two charms until you make more FG, but you will need weapons every 10-20 levels or so.
