Hey I just felt like rejoining Vindictus after I quit for about a month or so and I feel like making an Evie character (I was always a mage type xD). I was just wondering what are some skills that are good to max if I want to go scythe (if staff is more magic based then I guess I'll go staff since I like using magic xD). Also, what would be the best armor for Evie for both her scythe and staff build (staff only if staff is more magic centered) and yes I'm kinda concerned about the aesthetic? Lastly, I remember having a few problems with money before I took a break from Vindictus so any advice on making money would be appreciated. I know I'm asking a lot of questions but thanks for the advice in advance. :)

<_< this should be in the Vindictus Questions section. Also you can look in the guides section. There are a few that may be of interest to you.

Staff is more magic based - just run to the guide section and look for Heretic's post on Magician's. lol. If you can't understand his, the translation of the RP talk is riiight underneath his (by me~). There's also videos going up about the dungeons :) requests for those are taken too.
Uhm~ About the Staff, Magic Arrow r9 will be your friend forever. Along with Magic Mastery and Eagle Talon - then the passives (take Firebolt to rE for sure though!). It really depends if you like big bursts of damage or not though. Money wise, I'd suggest not to worry too much about money. Try not to buy armor you need and spam dungeons for as much crafting items as you need. Especially the early levels! You can skip the Spider armor if you don't have enough money (just make sure to make it later because of the title) and go straight to the Sweetie Bear Set. Also, you'll get money by spamming the Blood Prince once you hit level 31~

Get Int Mastery and Magic Mastery to RA as soon as you can, and hopefully by level 24 so you can easily make your decision on whether you want to be Scythe or Staff. An easy-ish way to make money though is to spam Prepare for Counterattack, and do as many of the bonus missions as you can.
And use Cloth if you choose to be an offensive Evy, but using Heavy Armor(as much as you possibly can) is pretty good for support Evies since they'll be there as meatshields and healhoars.

Still use Cloth if you're going Support, because Heavy Armor is a waste of AP for now. I know you get more defense, but that's about all you get from it. The INT and Agility on Cloth/Light Armor will help with Stamina and for when you have to solo~ And you'll want to save INT Mastery for after you get a few offensive spells, I know it sounds awesome (the higher INT) but the more spells you have to spam, offensively, the better.

Its better to generalize your skills before actually choosing a definite path though. I regret dumped 200 AP into MA since I eventually went for Scythe, but raising skills such as the Masteries(Magic, Int, Agi) will keep your options wide open until you definitely choose.

True, Shirayuki is right. If you're not sure about what type you're going then get the general ones first. If you are positive about going Staff though, then go for the ones I suggested. xD
Zoop zoop~ Heretic corrected me on MSN. You do get higher AGI too, but it isn't worth it for the Support Evies. Maybe light armor will be if you go Scythe (eventually). But then again, a veteran said that cloth armor gets STR added to it more later on too~
