A.) Introduction

• This is an easy to read cheat-sheet that you can compare to your current set-up.
• This will forever be a work in progress as long as I'm playing RO:M Eternal Love!
• Will be updated over the course of new updates.
• Read the guide as-is and check the FAQs at the bottom when something isn't too clear for you.
• You have a question not in the FAQs? Just ask and I'll add it in for everyone else to see!

B.) Stats

• These are the stats that I'm currently running with. It may be different from your character because you might need other stats.
• After doing some tests, higher LUK trumps higher STR in terms of damage dealt. It may be different for other characters so be sure to test it on your character first!
• PVE - If you're wearing Saint's Cape or Shinewhole's Robe, you can add more VIT if you haven't reached the cap of 300k HP yet.
  • 114 STR
  • 159 DEX
  • 113 LUK
• PVP - Why do we need to aim for 320 Total STR and 170 Total Dex? Because of the Begetter Skill Gene Destroy. It strips away 50-80 of all stats except VIT depending on how good their rune is. We need this to keep Avalanche's 240 str requirement activated and in order for Arm Cannon to still have instant cast.
  • 320 Total STR (without 3rd party buffs)
  • 159 VIT
  • 170 Total DEX (without 3rd party buffs)

G.) Aesir Monument

• Aesir Monument Simulator - http://www.romcodex.com/runes/
• How should you read this list? Just prioritize the nodes from the top and you'll be slowly filling your aesir page out.

H.) Rune Box

• Advanced Runes - Skill Runes
  • Rapid Armor Rune - 2nd option unlocked. Gives movement speed and makes you immune to a plethora of traps and environmental hazards.
  • Energy Cannon Rune - The lowest possible charge time is the best for PVP. It is better to be able to use 1 or 2 stacks every now and then compared to charging up 6 stacks with a chance of it being blocked by skills such as Auto Guard, Kyrie or Light Shield. Be sure to keep a 5 or 6 charge one for PVE. For structured PVP, high charge stack might be better since rebuffs are much less common and targets might have less block.
  • Ballistic Modification Rune - As much Arm Cannon Damage that you can get since it boosts your Photon Cannon Damage.
  • Magnetic Field Rune - 3rd option priority. Allows you to move under Magnetic Field. Very helpful for Controlling groups and blocking passageways. 2nd option unlocked allows to you reveal invisible enemies.
  • Machine Re-start Star Rune - 3rd option unlocked. Allows you to fully regenerate your HP and SP without removing Buffs.
  • Iron Fist Rune - Increases Knuckle Boost & Pioneer Damage.
  • Mech Pulse Star Rune - 3rd option optional. It increases The Pioneer's strength, staying power, and overall combat efficiency.
  • Shadow Barrier Rune - Increases Neutral Barrier's duration and effectiveness.
  • Soul Shout Rune - Increases strength. Best filler rune since you can't go wrong with more stats.

  • Armor Breaking ATK
  • Destruction ATK

J.) FAQs

• Q: What stats do the Pioneer Borrow?
  • A: Most stats from your stat page and most buffs and consumables. It does not borrow converter status, and skill effects from weapon, aesir, and runes.
    • 1 = STR, INT, AGI, DEX, VIT, LUK
    • 0.8 = ATK (But can be increased by Mech Pulse Rune by 0.81-1.0)
    • 1 = ATK%, DEF, DEF%, MDEF, MDEF%, MAXHP, MAXHP%
    • 1 = HIT, FLEE, CRIT, CRITRES, CRITDMG%, CRITDEF, REFINE ATK
    • 1 = MOVESPEED%, DMG REDUC, MDMG REDUC
    • 1 = IGNORE DEF, IGNORE MDEF, DMG REFLECT, MDMG REFLECT
    • 1 = PDI, MDI, MELEE DMG REDUC, RANGED DMG REDUC
    • 1 = PEN, MPEN, REFINE DMG REDUC, REFINE MDMG REDUC
    • 1 = AUTOATK DMG RESIST, SKILL DMG RESIST
    • 1 = WIND, EARTH, WATER, FIRE, NEUTRAL, HOLY, SHADOW, GHOST, POISON DAMAGE INC%
    • 1 = DEMIHUMAN DMG INC%, DEMIHUMAN DMG REDUC%
    • 1 = MEDIUM DMG INC%, MEDIUM DMG REDUC%
• Q: Mastering vs Vagabond?
  • A: Short answer is, Mastering will yield you more damage increase overall compared to Vagabond. On the other hand, Vagabond opens up more PVP-oriented build possibilities since STR has more uses in PVP because it increases stun chance and duration. Personally, I don't own any of these two cards since the damage increase for its price is simply too steep and I prefer using defensive cards like Jakk.
• Q: What refine level should I settle for my Weapon or Accessories?
  • A: At least 6 so you'll be able to activate the 4th enchant bonus and the first two tiers of Anvil Refine. 5/ 10/ 15 refine will also give you a 0.9% hidden Refine Bonus multiplier for a total of 2.1% max per piece of equipment. See Damage Formula in Additional Material.
• Q: How much Ignore DEF do I need in PVP?
  • A: As much as you can. Def% increases the Ignore DEF requirement and by default, Assumptio gives 50% and Synth Armors give around an average of 10% so 160% is a good number to aim for.
• Q: How do I get to more Ignore DEF?
  • A: It’s quite easy for Mechanics.
    • 3% - Aesir
    • 12% - Minor Adv Runes
    • 10% - Skills
    • 20% - Praying Cards
    • 25% - Rosa Chain (37% at 12, 51% at 15)
    • 15% - Ancient Cape
    • 4% - 8 Wolf Grandma Slippers
    • 3% - Spirit Tree 1 & 2
  • That’s a total of 92%. You can get the rest from Morale Enchants or God Weapon.
• Q: What 4th Enchant should I get for my Equipment?
  • A: It depends on your current setup or how you want to build your character. It’s all about personal preference and how you want to play the game. Do you want to free up your off-hand or garment slot? Get Morale Enchants. Do you want more staying power? Get Tenacity. Do you hate getting CC’d? Get more Stun Resist. Do you want to push for more Damage? Get Sharp Blade.
