Billposters
Introduction
Once you reach level 60 as an Assist, you will be able to job change into a Billposter.
Their main weapons are Knuckles & Shileds, or Sticks to buff & heal themselves/others.
Billposters are powerful melee fighters who can also be tanky. The main stat point for a 1 versus 1 Billposter is Strength (STR), but they also benefit from Dexterity (DEX), and sometimes a bit of Stamina (STA). There are many play styles and builds for this job, but this guide is for 1v1 players.
The Pros of a 1 versus 1 Billposter:
• High Damage
• Tanky
• Self-sufficient
Billposters are able to buff themselves (Assist buffs) in order to increase their damage and endurance. They don't depend on Ringmasters, but of course if you can get a FS to aid you, it will be much better.
• Ability to stun chain
You can pretty much chain stun monsters/players with the help of a skill called "Stone Hand".
• Usefull buffs/skills
• Good in PvP
• Awesome Giant Hunter
• Self-sufficient

The Cons of an 1 versus 1 Billposter:
• Slow leveling compared to an AoE Billposter
• Not as good in PvP compared to Asalraalaikum Billposters
• Stonehand Bug
There's currently a bug that sometimes causes monsters to attack faster when they come out of the Stun effect. This can be a problem when you Giant Hunt. A quick way to fix this is to run away for a while when they get out of the Stun effect. After a few seconds of running away (or in big circles), just attack the monster again.

Or you can use the Talin/Sayram Set.
Rody/Rodey Set
1/4: No effect
1/4: No effect
Any shield that has good awakenings.
Weapons
Levels 1-44
Level 45
Fist of Revenge
It's a bonus, but totally not required. Use it if you can or afford.
Level 60
Yakadain Knuckle
Levels 75-120 Non-Master
Once you reach level 75, you NEED a Ultimate Lusaka's Fist. This weapon is more powerful than a level 105 green Knuckle. If you can't afford a Lusaka Knuckle, just buy a green weapon, depending on your level.
Attack: 493 ~ 494
Attack Speed: Fast
Added bonus: Critical Chance +10%, Attack Speed +6%, Increased Critical Damage +63%, Additional Damage to Monsters [Wind]+3%, Hit +10%
Required Job: Assist
Required Level: 75
These 4 are actually gradually better than the Lusaka Knuckle, but only slightly.
They are gradually better, but only slightly. Therefore, I don't recommend buying all of them, but only ONE and keeping it until you can afford an Ancient Knuckle.
Recommended build:
Keep in mind: DO NOT add any INT as it doesn't benefit 1v1 Billposters in any way!
Without any buffs or equipment:
FINAL
STR: XXX
STA: 30
DEX: 43
INT: 15
You will need a lot of Strength, as Strength brings your attack power up. Add as many points as you can.

Stamina is needed to survive critical hits from monsters. With maxxed Heap Up, your Stamina points should be at 70.
Dexterity increases your accuracy, attack speed and critical chance. With maxxed Cannon Ball, you should have at least 63 DEX, which results in a speed break.
DO NOT ADD ANY INTELLIGENCE POINTS.
DO NOT ADD ANY INTELLIGENCE POINTS.
Skills - which ones do you need to max?
When you create a character, you won't receive infinite SP (skill points), you receive SP upon leveling up and job changing. Level 1 characters start out with 0 SP. There are lots of skills available but never enough SP, so you cannot max all skills, at least not until you level up to a very high level. Therefore, be careful in which skills you put points in. Add points only in skills that will unlock the skills that you need (specified in the guide). Most of them have requirements, a level requirement and a previous skill requirement. (e.g. Skill Y requires 4 points in skill X
and it also requires you to be level 20 to unlock it). SP gain depends
on your level, the higher the level, the more SP you get upon leveling
up.
Maximum skill level
First Job: level 20.
Second Job: level 10.
Third Job: level 5.
Vagrant Skill Tree
Don't spend any points in the Vagrant skills. Save the points for your Assist skills.

Haste

- Increases the Attack Speed of a target by +25% when maxxed.

Asalraalaikum
Lv. 80

This skill is what makes Billposters so strong in PvP.
High level players who PvP will max this skill and build around it.
Their gear is focused on MP and STR awakenings as this skill gets stronger with more MP and STR. It can K.O. most of the players and normal monsters in 1 hit with the right equipment.
Special Knuckle Mastery - Master Skill
Special Knuckle Mastery - Master Skill
- Boosts the attack power of your knuckle. The higher your mastery level, the more effective it is.
Awakenings
You will have to aim for ICD/STR/CRIT/DEX awakenings. Since you're 1v1 you're going to rely on critical hits. Therefore, ICD and STR are the best awakenings for you.
ICD = Increased Critical Damage. (also referred to as ADOCH)
Helmet: STR/DEX (Preferred STR)
Suit: ICD/CRITICAL CHANCE (Preferred ICD)
Gaunts: CRIT/ATTACK SPEED (Preferred CRIT)
Boots: ICD
Weapon: ICD/STR/CRITICAL CHANCE/DEX (Preferred ICD)
Shield: ICD/CRITICAL CHANCE (Do you lack Critical Chance? If yes, get some critical chance.)
Pet: ICD/STR/CRITICAL CHANCE/DEX (Preferred ICD)
Fashion: ICD/STR/CRITICAL CHANCE/DEX (Preferred ICD)
Suit: ICD/CRITICAL CHANCE (Preferred ICD)
Gaunts: CRIT/ATTACK SPEED (Preferred CRIT)
Boots: ICD
Weapon: ICD/STR/CRITICAL CHANCE/DEX (Preferred ICD)
Shield: ICD/CRITICAL CHANCE (Do you lack Critical Chance? If yes, get some critical chance.)
Pet: ICD/STR/CRITICAL CHANCE/DEX (Preferred ICD)
Fashion: ICD/STR/CRITICAL CHANCE/DEX (Preferred ICD)
As you can see, you need a lot of ICD, but keep in mind that Critical Chance awakenings are also needed. ICD increases your critical hit attack, but if you don't have a lot of Critical Chance then it's pointless. Try to balance the awakenings out.
Gear
This highly depends on your budget!
Levels 1-59
This highly depends on your budget!
Levels 1-59
Best option: High budget
Vagrant gear with good awakenings or you can use an awesome awakened level 30 green set. Depending on your awakenings, you could keep these sets until level 105.

Any Knuckle/Stick that you can wear, depending on your level. If you're still completing Reonan's quests, at level 40-ish there will be a quest that will reward you with a level 40 Knuckle & Stick upgraded to +6. I will not mention Sticks because you can use any Stick, they don't really matter.

Levels 75-120 Non-Master
Once you reach level 75, you NEED a Ultimate Lusaka's Fist. This weapon is more powerful than a level 105 green Knuckle. If you can't afford a Lusaka Knuckle, just buy a green weapon, depending on your level.
Ultimate Lusaka's Fist
Attack Speed: Fast
Added bonus: Critical Chance +10%, Attack Speed +6%, Increased Critical Damage +63%, Additional Damage to Monsters [Wind]+3%, Hit +10%
Required Job: Assist
Required Level: 75
Green Weapon's (Not recommended)
These are all obtainable through normal Giants.
Level 75: Historic Knuckle
Level 90: Angel Knuckle
Level 105: Legendary Golden Gloves
Level 120: Bloody Knuckle (This one is actually good but you're already high level at this point)
Bloody weapons drop from Red Meteonyker, a powerful boss.
You can also buy any of the following:
These are all obatinable through game Bosses, therefore more powerful and expensive.
Level 80: Ultimate Knuckle of Madness
Level 95: Ultimate Fist of Tides
Level 110: Ultimate Godhand
Level 120: Ultimate Vampire Knuckle
These are all obtainable through normal Giants.
Level 75: Historic Knuckle

These are all obatinable through game Bosses, therefore more powerful and expensive.
Level 80: Ultimate Knuckle of Madness
Level 95: Ultimate Fist of Tides
Level 110: Ultimate Godhand
Level 120: Ultimate Vampire Knuckle
These 4 are actually gradually better than the Lusaka Knuckle, but only slightly.
Therefore, I don't recommend buying all of them, but only ONE and keeping it until you can afford the Master/Hero Weapons.
Levels 60-120 Master
They are gradually better, but only slightly. Therefore, I don't recommend buying all of them, but only ONE and keeping it until you can afford an Ancient Knuckle.
In the end it's not worth buying each one of them. You will also have to upgrade them every time you purchase a new one, that's why I'm suggesting sticking only with one.
- Completing Reonan's quests would be a wise choice if you don't have penya.
- It's a bonus having a Ringmaster around. You can multi log, so get your Assist (Assist->BP) to level 34, then get your second character to level 15 (Assist->RM) and you will be able to plvl yourself.
- Always have a leecher while leveling.
- Join an Advanced Party while leveling.
My recommendation:
Level 75: Buy a Ultimate Lusaka's Knuckle -> keep it until you reach level 75 Master.
(Optional) Level 75 Master: Buy a Ultimate Lusaka's Crystal Knuckle -> keep it until you reach level 120 Master.
Level 120 Master: Buy a Ultimate Ancient Knuckle
(Optional) Level 75 Master: Buy a Ultimate Lusaka's Crystal Knuckle -> keep it until you reach level 120 Master.
Level 120 Master: Buy a Ultimate Ancient Knuckle
Jewerly
Any jewerly that gives you STR, ICD, Increased Attack, Attack Damge etc.
You may even use Arek's (DEX) for example if you have a wrong build or negative DEX awakenings.
This ONLY if you lack Attack Speed, Hit Rate or Critical Chance.

Cards
For PvM you will need Fire and Electric Cards. Try to balance them out, see what you're lacking.
Suit
Lightning Cards or Volcano Cards. This depends on what you're trying to do, deal damage or tank.
Volcano Cards give HP %
Lightning Cards give Increased Attack %.
Volcano Cards give HP %
