    0.0 Introduction

    -My introduction [0.1]

    hey! My name is Shaun (Godfromdfo), I been play playing MS for
    Almost 4 years, and have played every class and that is why I
    am writing this guide, because Crusader's are the best character
    In the game for high DMG! I hope I can help you Raise you're character a
    warrior And then make him into a Fighter/Crusader. This is my
    first guide so please send me some suggestions =]] I hope You
    enjoy reading this easy-yet-detailed guide =]]

    -Why I made this guide [0.2]

    I love watching their dmg (50k+) which is the best
    Dmg any class in maple can do, Better then cb's they only do 6k,
    Better then Dk's they only do 6k X 6 (40 odd thousand once
    added), Fire mages only do around 4-5k, ice mages = 2-3k, hermit
    = 7k, WK = 3-12k, so as you can see by what I just said, Crusaders
    truly Are the strongest =] the only downfall is their range, oh...
    wait! No it isnt! =]]Crusaders can also do a ranged attack called:
    Shout =]] well it's more of a mob skill, at level 28 it can reach
    200% of the map, so you wont have to worry about being ksed so
    much =]] Well even without that skill you wont have to worry about
    being ksed =]] because you can fight in stronger areas then other
    classes, Making you literally own.

    -What is Maple Story? [0.4]

    Well, Maple Story (here on out called MS) is a
    Korean/Japanese/English Free to Play Online Game created by Wizet
    (Now owned by Nexon). MS is a 2D anime style RPG featuring various
    jobs?(Warrior, Magician, Thief, and Bowman). To level up,
    The player must fight monsters, gain items, and complete quests.
    MS is an addictive game to many and some may spend countless
    Hours/days (literally) playing this game. I have been playing
    This game for nearly 4 years, trust me, it's addictive.

    ==================================================================

    [0.5] Starting Maplestory

    -Downloading Maple / Starting Maple[0.6]

    Go to http://mapleglobal.com to get the American version,
    http://mapleeurope.com for the European Version or
    http://maplesea.com if you're over sea.

    Ok, download the version that suits you, now register to that
    Version on the website, once you have finished installing maple,
    Run it (it's the little orange mushroom) and type in the username
    And password you used to register on the site with, now click on
    you're gender, and click Create a new character =]]

    -Controls [0.7]

    Switching Channels Press Menu (or hit ESC), Change Channels

    Chat Box Make sure you press the little '+' sign
    At the bottom centre of your screen to
    See what has been said more clearly

    Healing Find a safe place and stand still for
    A while or use potions)

    Recovering MP MP Regenerates automatically (or use
    potions)

    Pick up items Press Z

    World Map Press W

    Inventory Press I

    Statistics (AP) Press S

    For more controls click on your Key Settings at the bottom right
    Of screen. My favourite button is F6.

    -Creating A new character / Dice rolling [0.8]

    Click on create new character when you are signed in to whatever
    Server you would like makes your character appearance anyway you
    See fit and also name it. Ok, now time to do the DICE ROLL! Try
    As hard as you can to roll your INT and LUK to a 4/4, it doesn抰
    Matter about what your STR and DEX are, just as long as you get a
    4/4 on INT and LUK. Remember! This is to make your perfect warrior.
    (Note that you can roll the dice as long as you want although
    Sometimes getting 4/4 for INT and LUK takes a long time.) Also,
    If you can't get 4/4 on INT and LUK then try to get at least 4/5 or
    5/5 if you plan on buying AP later.

    -Maple Island, Starting you'e character [0.9]

    Ok, now you're in noob* island (Maple Island)
    and you know the controls? good. =] I recommend
    You do all the quest on maple island until level 9
    because if you leave any earlier there's a high chance
    of being ksed which leads to you earning less exp.

    *noob: someone new to networking/gaming as it seems

    -Stats [1.0]

    ok, well you should have you're dex +2 of you're level so
    just say you were level 12 you're dex should be 14. make
    sure you're dex is at 60 by level 30 so you can hit stronger
    monsters. the more STR the more dmg, the more DEX the more
    ACC (&some dmg, not as much as STR though) Once you are level
    30 Stop adding dex, just add str each level until you are level
    40 then start adding dex.

    So for example:

    Lv1 STR=9 Lv6 STR=30
    DEX=8 DEX=12
    Lv2 STR=14 Lv7 STR=33
    DEX=8 DEX=14
    Lv3 STR=19 Lv8 STR=36
    DEX=8 DEX=16
    Lv4 STR=24 Lv9 STR=39
    DEX=8 DEX=18
    Lv5 STR=27 Lv10 STR=42
    DEX=10 DEX=20

    oh and I forgot to mention for the noob skills Put all your SP
    into Three Snails and Nimble Feet. As a Warrior you don't have
    any long range attacks so Three Snails is sometimes
    useful even at later levels. Nimble feet is good for travelling
    or just running away. Recovery is quite useless considering
    the amount of HP warriors have later so don抰 max that =]

    Leave at level 9, so you don't get ksed (as much...)

    ==================================================================

    1.1 1st job!

    -Why be a warrior? [1.2]

    1. Easiest to level 1-10
    2. Best melee dmg
    3. Slash blast owns =]]
    5. Huge health

    -Why not be a warrior? [1.3]

    1. Hard to level 20-30 if not training right
    2. Hard class to use compared to Mages & Thief抯
    3. Not much mp....
    4. Aren抰 ranged so you have to hit stuff close = [
    5. Hard to pq as accuracy is low and damage
    is really unstable.

    -Becoming a warrior [1.4]

    ok, so you have left Noob Island and are level 10?
    OK! In lith harbour go all the way on the left of the map and
    talk to the guy in the stall next to Jane and go to perion.

    Now you're in perion, go to the top of the map, where you'll
    find a building (The biggest building in Perion of all). Walk
    in, and you'll see Dances With Balrog (That's his name),
    Talk to him and he says as long as you have 35 STR and are
    Level 10, you can become a Warrior! Congrats, You are
    now a warrior =] You would have gained about 80-120 hp which
    is very useful =] Now let's look at you're SP!

    -Skill Descriptions [1.5]

    First of all I will explain to you what each skill does:

    ==================================================================

    [Improving HP Recovery]
    Max level: 16
    Requirements: none

    This skill will improve the amount of HP you get when you
    Stand still for 10 seconds. It's not necessary, but is pretty
    good at lower levels.

    Level 1: Recover additional +3
    Level 8: Recover additional +24
    Level 16: Recover additional +50

    ==================================================================

    [Improving MAX HP]
    Max level: 10
    Requirements: 5 in Improving HP recovery

    While having a level up and if an Ability Point is used to increase
    the amount of HP, it raises the level of increase for Max HP.
    Maxing this skill will give you closer to 70HP per level up.

    Level 1: Add 3 more for Max HP when level up
    Level 5: Add 15 more for Max HP when level up
    Level 10: Add 30 more for Max HP when level up

    ==================================================================

    [Endure:]
    Max level: 8
    Requirements: 3 Improving Max HP

    Even while hanging on a rope or on a ladder, you will be able to
    recover some HP after a certain amount of time. The higher the
    level, the faster the recovery time.

    Level 1: Recover HP every 31 seconds
    Level 4: Recover HP every 22 seconds
    Level 8: Recover HP every 10 seconds

    ==================================================================
    [Iron Body]
    Max level: 20
    Requirements: 3 Endure

    Temporarily increases your weapon's defence. This skill will may
    be useless later, and is a pretty bad waste of SP!

    Level 1: MP -5; Weapon defence +2 for 15 seconds
    Level 10: MP -5; Weapon defence +20 for 150 seconds
    Level 20: MP -10; Weapon defence +40 for 300 seconds

    ==================================================================

    [Power Strike]
    Max level: 20
    Requirements: none

    This will your main skill for a very long time. At max level, it
    does 260% damage of your normal attack, which simply is awesome.
    You basically HAVE to max this; it's one of the greatest skills
    You will use, You will still be using this skill at level 70+
    Until you get Coma/Combo which means it's a must to max!

    Level 1: MP -6; Sword damage 108%
    Level 10: MP -6; Sword damage 180%
    Level 20: MP -12; Sword damage 260%

    ==================================================================

    [Slash Blast]
    Max level: 20
    Requirements: 1 Power Strike

    Your main mob skill. You lose HP and MP when using this skill.
    It attacks 6 monsters within your weapon range at 130% of your
    damage at level 20. Some leave it at lv10, where it does 94%
    damage, while not having to deal with the double MP/HP cost,
    where as others prefer to max it so they can level faster,
    the choice is yours...

    Level 1: MP -7; HP -8, damage 56%
    Level 10: MP -7; HP -8, damage 92%
    Level 20: MP -14; HP -16, damage 130%

    ==================================================================

    [1.8] 1st & 2nd PQ!

    -1st PQ: HPQ [1.9]

    -Description of HPQ [DESC1]

    The 1st PQ is in Henesys. A party of 3, including the
    leader, goes into an area where you have to hit plants to obtain
    seeds of a variety of colors. You then place the seeds on a
    platform. If they grow into a flower you have put it in the right
    place, if not try another platform. Once all the seeds have
    flowered a bunny will appear and it will be attacked by monsters.
    You must defend the bunny so it can make moon rice cakes for
    Growly. A fairly simple quest, it requires you to be level 10
    and up.

    -What you do in HPQ [WYD1]

    What you have to do is hit the plants, causing them to drop
    seeds. Then you put the seeds on the floating grass, but not
    just anywhere. You have to put them in certon places, depending on
    the seed's color.

    ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><
    >Blue seed-Upper Left patch of grass >
    > >
    >Green Seed-Upper Right patch >
    > >
    >Yellow Seed-Middle Left patch >
    > >
    >Purple Seed-Middle Right >
    > >
    >Brown Seed-Lower Left patch >
    > >
    >Pink Seed-Lower Right patch >
    ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><

    When all the seeds are in the right place of the floating grass,
    it disapears and a flower appears. When all 6 seeds are in place,
    the Moon Bunny will appear near the center.

    Now is when the real action starts. Now you have to deffend
    the Moon Bunny from flying monsters while it's making rice cakes.
    The monsters don't really have much HP, but wave after wave will
    just keep comming until the leader has 10 rice cakes and talks to
    Growlie. Until then, the Moon Bunny will also keep making rice cakes.

    The monsters will come from every angle of the screen so it's best to
    either split up in certain areas or all stay in one spot, I recomend
    you split up. Once the leader has all 10 rice cakes you willall go to
    another room, whee the leader can decide weather to rush or go to bonus.

    What the bonus consists of:

    Pigs, Ribboned pigs, some Iron pigs (don't need much acc to
    hit in hpq), which is decent exp for you're lvl.

    ==================================================================

    -2nd PQ: KPQ** [2.0]

    -Description of KPQ [DESK2]

    The 2nd Accompaniment is in Kerning City. A party of 4, including
    the leader, goes through 5 stages solving puzzles and killing
    monsters within 30 minutes. The main idea is teamwork, since each
    part requires all party members to participate. At the end, a
    prize is given to each person ranging from ores, equipment,
    scrolls to potions. Only one party can be inside the party quest
    at any given time on one channel. There is also a time limit for
    completing each stage of the party quest. The time is inaccurate,
    though, as it usually does not boot people out until about 30
    seconds have elapsed after the minutes are over. The level limit
    For this accompaniment is 21-30.

    **KPQ = Kerning Party Quest

    -What you do in KPQ [WYD2]

    -stage 1

    You must be in a party of 4, and must e lvl 21-30***, I recomend
    that you, being a warrior start kpq'ing at lvl 25+ because you
    wont have much accuracy if you go in under lvl 25 (unless funded)
    Kpq is one of my favorites out of all the pqs (OPQ is my
    favorite, but Kpq is close =])

    Well, first you have to be in Kerning, and stand next to the sewer
    pipes saying something like 'J>PQ' then you will get a party
    invite, accept it. The leader then keeps clicking on Lakelis
    Now, waiting to get into a pq may take some time because there
    are other people who also want to go in, but don't worry,
    Just keep waiting.. i'm sure the leader will eventualy get you in.

    KPQ Basically has 4 stages, 6 if you class Boss stage and bonus.

    ok, once you are in you will have to see how many tickets you
    need to collect (so you can get to the 2nd stage), so you must
    go and talk to Cloto to see how many you need. collect coupons
    equal to the answer of the question from the Ligators on the
    platforms. The Ligators have around 600-800 health and reduced
    avoidability. The questions and the answer are stated below, from
    smallest to largest.

    Once you have fought Ligators and got the correct amount of
    tickets speak to Cloto and she will exchange them for a pass!
    Nw, give you're pass to the leader (once he has passes from
    everyone you can go to the next stage) oh and if anyone dies in
    KPQ then don't worry! you only need 2 passes then =]

    ***You can lvl up in KPQ to lvl 31 and still continue, but once you
    leave you can't go back in. =]

    -stage 2

    ok, this stage is simple, choose a vine**** to climb on.
    When all 3 members are on a separate vine each, then the leader
    Clicks on the NPC*****. If a huge 'WRONG' comes up, then move to
    another vine******... Then have the leader click again. keep
    trying until, finally, a huge 'CLEAR' goes onto the screen. Now
    go through the portal (Blue door looking thing) and it's stage 3!

    ****Two members cannot be
    on the same vine.

    *****NPC = Non player character / Non playable Character

    ******A empty vine -_-'''

    -Stage 3

    This is much more confusing. What you must do is go to the top,
    jump on one of the platforms******* You'll notice there
    are kittens on each platform. It's Sorta like the 2nd stage,
    you have to jump on a possible platform. You should try every
    possibility. Use the standard numerical format

    ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><

    One of the more experienced pqers would probably shout out you're
    name and a number.. don't think of them as ignorant, they are
    just trying to help you =] so just say you're name is Hero666
    and a pq member says 'ZOMFG 666 GET TO 3 NOW!!11' then move to the
    platform with 3 cats, don't argue, it's not worth it.
    And just keep swapping places untill you see a huge 'CLEAR' =]
    Once you have cleared it's time for stage 4

    *******You can tell which number each platform is by looking at
    the cats =]] 1 cat = number 1 and so forth...

    -stage 4

    ok, this is more annoying then all the stages in KPQ together...

    Get up to the top first. Then choose a barrel (1,2,3,4,5,6) and
    jump on. VERY similar to the last, so I wont eplain it much...

    best order;

    ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><

    it's simple once you get used to it. (you better get used to it
    or you would suck at Ludi =]********)

    Now it's time for the 5th step / Boss

    ********Unless somone will be kind enough to help -_-' you will
    most likely be flamed though.

    Flamed = Somone shouting at you / being aggressive

    -Boss / stage 5

    All you bassically do is kill all the monsters grab all the
    tickets, give the leader the tickets.. simple.. so no more
    explanations are needed here >=0 apart from King Slime of course

    KING SLIME - You're first Mini Boss =\\

    HP = 8000
    MP = 100

    Wpn Atk = 130
    Mgc Atk = 160
    Wpn Def = 160
    Mgc Def = 160
    Speed = 0
    Hit Cap = 140
    Avd Cap = 10

    TIME TO PROVE YOU ARE A TRUE HERO! SOLO TIME! You will
    truely make all other classes jealus of you by soloing
    King Slime (Which you can solo at lvl 27+)

    He could deal 200+ damage to lv30s with his Tremor attack,
    It will only take you about 8 hits to kill it, which
    eventhough people think mages are best for KPQING are wrong
    because mages only do like 300-400dmg at that stage wheras
    you could do about 600-1000... sins also suck at KPQ, bowmen..
    now that's another story, they are pretty decent too, possibly
    just as good as you. You also have high hp & def so his
    attacks wont be so harsh on you =]

    After a while, he'll send out a signal with his antenna. Several
    small slimes (lv6, 50Hp) will now appear and disrupt your attack
    wave for a few seconds. You should notice a few small platforms
    up the top. When the slimes chase you to one side, climb up,
    jump to the other side and fall down so you can attack him from
    behind*********. Once you have killed him alot of slimes will
    pop up. Some people say that you shouldn't kill them because
    your prize becomes worse. It's a proven fact that that's a myth,
    So no penalty for killing the slimes.

    *********You do more dmg from hitting behind then from hitting
    in front, damn these astarecs are getting long -_-'''

    -Bonus / Stage 6

    This stage is for a few reasons,

    1. Exp

    2. Gives you time to reform you're party

    3. To show their rewards

    4. To 'Hog'**********

    **********Hog = Stay in bonus and train until time runs out.

    Here's some Valuable items that you could get:

    3 Black Crystal Ores
    3 Diamond Ores
    Weight Earrings (needed for lv25 earring quest)
    Blue Bamboo Hat (lv25)

    You are well on you're way to becoming a Crusader and beyond!

    -Skill descriptions [2.7]

    ==================================================================

    Mastery - This should be raised to level 19 or 20 before you start
    bringing up any other skills.
    The increased minimum damage and accuracy is very important.

    ==================================================================

    Final Attack - This is a good choice if you like to fight powerful
    monsters with Power Strike or Slash Blast instead of normal
    hitting. It lets you land an extra attack right after using a
    skill attack (Power Strike or Slash Blast) without using any MP.
    However, it can hurt you if you don't know how to use it.
    Because a Final Attack takes less time to use than a normal attack,
    it may hit the enemy before it recovers from the first knockback.
    This results in a failure to knockback the enemy with the Final
    Attack, even if you do sufficient damage.
    Against slow enemies such as Stone Golems, this is not a big
    problem. On the other hand, a normal speed monster may hit you
    before you kill/knockback with a third hit, and a pepe could even
    avoid your attack if it is lucky enough. To get around this problem,
    either fight monsters that you will almost always kill in 1-2 hits.

    ==================================================================

    Booster - This is a very important skill if you use two-handed
    axes. The reason for this is because two-handed axes are the
    slowest of all weapons available to the Fighter.
    However, adding points increases the duration and decreases HP/MP
    cost without making the weapon any faster.
    For this reason, you only need 5-6 points to start off with, and
    can add more later.
    At level 6, it costs 24 HP/MP and lasts for 60 seconds.
    This skill should probably be taken second or third if you use
    two-handed axes, and any time you want for other weapons.

    ==================================================================

    Rage - This is an extremely useful skill.
    Once you raise it to level 19-20, it adds 10 Attack Power, which
    is like having a sparta stronger than a doombringer, which is what
    having a weapon 10 levels higher means.
    After using Iron Body, the defence penalty is completely negated.
    After applying multipliers from Power Strike and Slash Blast, this
    can easily raise your damage by a few hundred per hit. This would
    make a good second skill if you don't mind spending the extra MP
    on it. It costs 20 MP for 160 seconds at level 20.

    ==================================================================

    Power Guard - This is a powerful defensive skill. When you are hit
    with a touch attack (when you are ran or hitten by monsters), it
    reduces the damage done to you by a certain percent and also does
    that amount of damage to the monster.
    For example, an attack that would normally do 100 damage to you
    would do only 60 to you with level 30 Power Guard, and would also
    do 40 damage to the monster.
    However, it has a fairly high MP cost and short duration compared
    with other Fighter spells.
    This skill will reduce the damage you take by a lot, but also eats
    up MP pretty quickly and has to be recast often.
    It's up to you to decide when the HP it saves You抮e worth the MP
    and repeated casting.

    [3.0] 3rd & 4th PQ!

    -3rd PQ: LPQ [3.1]

    -Description of LPQ [DESC3]

    The 3rd PQ can be done in Ludibrium. There are 9 stages
    to this quest, requiring 6 party members. This quest
    pushes on the fact that a variety of jobs are needed to
    complete the quest. The many skills each character has,
    such as Haste, Heal, Darksight, and Teleport are needed
    in order to pass some of the stages. This PQ has a new
    attribute that the first one does not, boxes. Boxes are
    opened by using a melee attack, opening the box either
    drops a pass, or spawns monsters. After defeating the boss
    on the 9th stage, there is a bonus stage in which characters
    open boxes. The boxes will drop lots of coins, potions and
    sometimes, a random equipment (earrings, and capes).
    After this stage, which lasts for 1 minute, the prize is given.
    Prizes consist of potions, ores, and equipment.
    The level limit for this PQ is 35-50, I recomend you LPQ at lvl40.

    -What you do in LPQ [WYD3]

    First you must join a party of 6, then you need to cc************
    to whichever channel the leader tells you to go to. then once you
    have entered you will be in stage 1.

    -Stage One

    Move up and down the area, killing the black ratz. They've got a
    little more HP than usual. Each kill will net you one coupon.
    Give them to your leader, then have him talk to the red balloons
    NPC to open the portal to the next stage. Have 2 or 3 of your
    party members go through the portal. The rest, wait a moment.

    -Stage Two

    The 2 or 3 members who went through should go down to the second box. When
    they hit it, all the members you sent into Stage Two will be moved to the
    Tower's Trap. Basically it's just a mini-stage to do, but since you've got
    3 or 4 other party members waiting to come through, you can do Stage Two and
    Tower's Trap simultaneously. Once the 2 or 3 have been taken to the Trap, the
    other members should go through the portal and beat Stage Two as usual. Both
    groups need to hit all the blue boxes they come across; each one will drop a
    coupon. You may need a Mage in the trap to teleport over to a difficult-to-
    reach box. When both groups are done, give all 15 tickets to the leader and
    have him talk to the orange balloons. Everyone go through the portal.

    -Stage Three

    Most of the boxes in this stage will spawn Bloctopus, which each drop a
    coupon when killed. Your party should split up. Half can go down and smash
    the boxes as they go. The bloctopus will fall down to the bottom area, where
    you can easily mob attack them. The other half should go up and kill all the
    bloctopus up there. Give all your coupons to the leader, who gives them to
    the yellow balloons. Go through the portal.

    -Stage Four

    When you reach this stage, everyone should drop down to the bottom. Then
    work your way up. When you reach a portal (the bottom and top portals don't
    do anything), mark that you went in by dropping 10 mesos or an item near the
    portal. Then go in. Inside it's completely dark and there are 1 or more
    monsters inside. The monsters are black so you can't see them, but every once
    in awhile they will open their eyes. You can only hit them when their eyes
    are open. Once you're done, leave through one of the portals in your room.
    Then if there are any more unmarked portals, do one of those rooms, otherwise
    go up to the balloons and wait for the rest of your party. Drop your coupons.
    The leader should click the lime-green balloons to open the portal. Everybody
    through.

    -Stage Five

    The thief should turn on Dark Sight and go down through the golems. There are
    several portals. He/she needs to go through each one and collect the passes
    in each room. Some contain more golems.. make sure you remain darksighted; the
    golems do 8k+ damage per hit. The rest of the party, go up. Again, mark the
    portals you go into. Two members should go through each portal. In every room,
    climb up and jump off the side of the rope onto the chests on the side of the
    room. The mage with teleport needs to take the top portal. Have him/her
    teleport (or Haste jump) up into the portal. In their room, they need to
    teleport directly down into their stage. Once everyone's done, they should
    drop their passes to their leader, and go through the portal.

    -Stage Six

    At this point, someone in your party will probably announce the order to
    the noob's.. this is it: 133 221 333 123 111. Hit UP while standing on the
    numbered barrels in that order. At the top is a portal; use it.

    -Stage Seven

    Once in the next room, go down to the bottom. Someone in your
    party will be picked to kill ratz. Every time they kill a black ratz, a
    Rombard miniboss will spawn in the bottom area. A cleric should have no problem
    keeping you healed. After it takes a bit of damage it'll summon block golems..
    just kill them all and after every Rombard kill, tell the guy who's up killing
    ratz to kill another one. Another Rombard will spawn. Be careful! Multiple
    rombards can spawn if the ratz-hunter kills more than 1 at a time, making it
    difficult to beat this stage. After all the coupons are collected, give them to
    your leader and go through the portal.

    -Stage Eight

    Like the Kerning PQ, but with nine boxes. This can get tedious
    and the #1 and #2 are coveted, although they're usually reliquished to the
    party newbie if they're too slow. This is an example of the order, if you don't
    remember: 12345 12346 12347 12348 12349 12356 12357 12358 12359 12367 12368 etc
    until you get the right combination. It can get confusing after 1 and 2 start
    moving, but you shouldn't have much trouble.

    -You're 1st Real Boss

    That king slime was a Mini Boss for a reason, it can be soloed
    at a low lvl... Alishar on the other hand would require a
    high lvl to solo it like a lvl 47+ BUUUUUT you are a Fighter
    so you are most likely the strongest there =] so if you
    'MUST' be a Hero then solo it at lvl 42+ =]] Once ali is
    Dead you get to either go to Bonus stage or rush =]

    Bonus stage = less chance of getting back in, but get
    some GREEEEEEEEEAT items =]

    Rushing = High chance of getting back in.

    Level 30: HP -25, MP -26; Basic attack +200%, 90% chance to stun
    enemy

    ==================================================================

    [Coma: Axe]
    Max level: 30

    Same as sword.

    Level 1: HP -15, MP -12; Basic attack +84%, 32% chance to stun
    enemy
    Level 15: HP -20, MP -19; Basic attack +140%, 60% chance to stun
    enemy
    Level 30: HP -25, MP -26; Basic attack +200%, 90% chance to stun
    enemy

    ==================================================================

    [Armour Crash]
    Max level: 20

    This move can cancel out the enemy's physical defence up skill in
    a certain rate. Although this is good to have, I recommend maxing
    this out later.

    Level 1: MP -35; 24% chance to nullify enemy's physical defence
    up
    Level 10: MP -17; 60% chance to nullify enemy's physical defence
    up
    Level 20: MP -7; 100% chance to nullify enemy's physical defence
    up

    ==================================================================

    [Shout]
    Max level: 30

    Another reason why you want to be a Crusader. Shout attacks all
    enemies within 200% attack range, which means, now you can KS or
    STOP GETTING KS by other classes.

    Level 1: MP -8; Basic attack +11%, range +110%, 52% stun for 5
    seconds
    Level 15: MP -12; Basic attack +22%, range +150%, 80% stun for 7
    seconds
    Level 30: MP -16; Basic attack +30%, range +200%, 95% stun for 10
    seconds
