What is the easiest class to level to 150?

bg/shield with high damage mercs for me

 

if u say leveling use zentai and use npc equipment it death stance. it completely worng
when i m lvl up to lvl 150.

u get free teleport ticket after all and if not ask someone to give u tp to the close city. ask someone high lvl 150+ 2h to get free Mercenaries.
gear:

kuro tusurbami + 1k aspd find slot one drop from monster on small factory ( use 2hnd merc to help get it) ( use cheap xtal Hp+300 or Mp+200) help u on ampr and u can plus/refine it on zaldo to get more damage

armor fortuti vestibus from tapir bos + 3k hp ask somefriend or guild mate to help get it ( remodel to heavy type so i cant die on 1 hit) ( if lucky get slot put hp or mp xtal)
and if hard to you buy some vita pluse give 1500 hp on npc hora diomeda and magidad for mp + 300 or u can go hunt it all lvl 120. pt not solo

jawel tiara slot give boost on mp ( cheaper price) put hp or mp xtal

ring use beast fang talisman more mp cheaper price on CB and slot give u more mp pool

all those gear and item can give u over 3k hp pool at minimum and over 1k mp pool to use zentai ( put on short cut not combo) for counter and just do auto hit for ampr. after 1 - 2 time fight bos or mini bos. i think good player already know and can calculate bos skill. after red zone out and when skill hit from bos. so u can use zentai perfectly and be smart on fighting bos if that bos skill give more then 1 hit you must avoid it and dont counter it

pull all first stat on dex to give more hit.

that the cheaper way to go use katana build. if you dont want go to mainstrem lvl up build.
and yeah some theard in here give u guide to lvl up fast without NC.
ps: that all what i do when lvl up use katana and my story quest still not clear and the last quest i do on grass dragon yelb.

 

IMHO I would go with knux/shield, as a breaker-tank.

Knux has easy access to 100% flinch, 100% tumble and 75+%stun. Rotating through these is key to disable enemies in any party. Drills weapon (for 100% crit accuracy) is also farmed from a lower level miniboss too. Shield is awesome for 100% stun, then later guardian (110) and pdef (125).

And tanks are always in demand, so you can easily cruise/party your way to 150 after you have pdef.

You'll never cap faster going solo (even with mercs), so stick to bossing in player parties. You also won't be strong as everyone else (with 150 skills) so makes more sense to start as a tank!

 

after new event bos demand tank up. and for me i think batter ohs+shield. just from my experience run on trio queen potum. knuck + shield tanker bad on late game. ohs can get more agro skill from knight skill tree .
and knuc tank cant hold agro from 3 finale spamer.

 

Actually I have a OHS+shield tank myself and i am starting to prefer knux. Sonic wave is really good because you can start your guardian combo safely, with a tumble from range. The number of times i used [trigger->guardian->warcry] combo at the start of trio queen potum into an immediate death was actually quite a lot! Just horrific combination of stun+tumble+sleep, all the time absorbing every single hit before being kicked out of the arena lol~

 

but from my experience when i m pt with knuck tank they always lose the agro cuz spam skill. like mage spam skill when the use finale swift on p. ava or even on trio queen potum. well if u want use sonic wave u can put it use stargem.

kunck tank just good on maze run or some bos with no fall zone

 

Lol have you seen the price of sonic wave star gems on cb? No newbie rushing for 1st char to level 150 could afford to buy 10 of them (nor I for that matter)...
Anyways, you have raised a fair point that knux tanks have less aggro skill options compared to other weapons, though typically guardian+interrupts+occasional provoke is usually more than enough for me when i tank. Anyone who takes aggro over me, I would say its their own fault for not being a bit more careful in their own aggro management. Again, only my own opinion...
Ultimately, both ohs & knux tanks have different pros vs cons. Its all just a matter of personal battling style.

 

Makes sense. If pt can steal aggro from tank inside guardian, then, tank is the one to blame(sounds impossible unless tank use low/nonrefined shield) . If pt stay outside guardian and steal aggro or dont know how to manage aggro, i prefer let them die.

 

Rn I'm doing minibosses as a tank, works really well. But it gets kinda hectic with 4 lapins after you lol, but it's a lot faster and easier than normal bossing.
