Anything I need to know?

Last time I played a giant was waaaaaaay ago about two gens after they were released.

So I'm far behind.

Point me into a nice guide or something about them?

Yes sir.

Anything else along the way that'll help achieving those skills?

Why risk increasing your dex and CP?
rF anything else for utility.

Invest in some -CP gear too. Makes windmill a breeze the earlier you do it.

People's logic "You can always do windmill later and just use CP gear and still have zombies as bosses"
My logic "You can do it right away with CP gear and have racoons as bosses"

Yeah Rank 1 WM is like ASAP. I have a friend who is a giant, is like total 300 and has 100-250 damage something like that. He doesn't even have requirements for Untamed Crocodile which are like on ALL of his equips either. They add 29 damage or something.

That's rare to find, Giant -CP at least in Ruairi.

You're gonna have a ton of AP but resist the temptation to spend them.
After r1 windmill, and you start doing refine, simultaneously begin stomp.

Not really.

Also a huge waste of money, especially as a giant.

You know...

Giant Windmill is easy to train. And then, it'll be even easier to train with G13's classes.

On a side note, Stomp/Throw Attack have CP required kills too. Especially Throw Attack, where r3 and beyond, you need to kill nothing but Boss monsters.

Yeah unless your willing to spend ALOT of money enchanting it it isn't worth it.

Easy to train? No.
Easier than human/elves? Yes.

Its still an hassle. My giant had rF everything else and went straight for r1 windmill with two very basic CP reduction gear and I still got really pissed at how slow it was.

I'd rather not spend my entire weekend spinning around.

Why make the process longer later if its shorter now? I mean, when people procrastinate, the task is still going to take just as long later, but this isn't the case.

Giant WM is easy to train. If you are that lazy, just let it sit there to gain some AP, and wait for G13. Then, become a warrior job or whatever, and then play Giant. If I remember correctly, I can get a rank a hour or something after r5.

The major difference nowadays is that Giant probably should work on Carpentry.

Its easy up to r5.
Its annoying after that. Took me an entire day to get like two ranks in after that and I'd rather not sit around for 8 hours spinning.

Giant wm is very easy. Got in in about 2 weeks casually. I quit wm on my human it was so annoying. Maybe try human first and see it and then do giant. I would think throw attack would be more annoying. Another idea, do it with a friend who just wants to hang out. My brother and I worked on ours together. We'd just turn it to anyone in the party and herd monsters into groups for easy kills.
Could always just wait for classes and a double rainbow. It'll probably zoom :D
