  Jus' puttin' that out there. Just made mine earlier, and I gotta say, he's better then I expected.
  
  I dunno if y'all ever seen that show Angel, y'know the spin-off of Buffy, well I got a haircut for my Kai and he looks exactly like Doyle. Guess I just got a kick outta that.
  
  So yeah, Kai is awesome, and if you haven't tried him out yet I strongly suggest it. Not as OP as expected either.
  
  He's really fucking sexy.

  I feel like he really sucks early on. Maybe its because I spam his normal attacks too often. I haven't gotten past Lv12 though so I shouldn't really judge him yet.
  
  Have to reinstall before I can play anymore though :cry:

  Also if anyone's curious, it's around 78k AP to max out Kai. Lann is at about 105k and Fiona is at 108k.
  
  It is worth noting that includes all the useless skills, and it includes both Sword/Spear and Sword/Hammer skills for the other two.

  iirc Lann was less than that. Though I'm too lazy to log on my Lann and check :(

  This. It was really fun for the first 10 levels or so because I was able to practice by myself, now it's getting a little repetitive, but I'm definitely going to keep going with it. Also the stamina, is horrible...I didn't need to max out my stamina skills on my other characters until around level 50 or so. With Kai I'm maxing them as soon as I reach the level required. I feel like most of the time I'm just trying to get stamina back, and considering I'm always attacking the boss in a circle, I'm constantly moving while attacking so that just eats it away even faster.
  
  But that's really the only complaint for me. I'm sure it will get better as I get up in the higher levels, and I'm curious to see how he does in the raids. I'm expecting to see some whenever I run them today.

  Fun fact, Rank A Battle Respiration is probably 1st or 2nd in my skill priority for any Kai.
  
  Why? At this point, the stamina regeneration between Shortbow shots starts to be greater than the stamina cost of a Shortbow shot. What this means is that your stamina bar essentially stays locked in at whatever number you were at if you're just spamming your Shortbow (0 Attack Speed though). At Rank 6, I'd guess you'd actually GAIN stamina while shooting your shortbow.
  
  So Battle Respiration, rank it to A instantly. Save about 600 AP for it when you hit Lv. 26, as it seriously makes dungeons so much faster and easier.
  
  Only other skill that can compete with it's utility on Kai is Standing Endurance Rank 9, which is a staple for any character.

  Thats Vindictus in general.
  
  
  Repetitive, annoying dungeoning for 50 levels.

  Is there a Kai Guide...?

  It's been a grand total of 33 hours since Kai was released. There hasn't been enough time for any person who plays NA Vindi to get enough experience with the character to write a guide. It's literally impossible to write a good one right now anyways, since even hardcore grinding for the whole 33 hours is probably only enough to get you to Lv. 50 or so.
  
  Maybe a Korean one exists, but maybe not.
  
  You only have like 4 different inputs at first anyways (Normal shooting, Huntsman Barrage, Twister Kick, dodge), so it really isn't hard to pick him up, figure things out, and then play. Kai gets things added to his skillset pretty slowly (Lv. 28, still missing 2 core skills).
