So I've been playing mabi for about 6.75 months now and I am now a Grandmaster warrior and a master knight with all the melee skills capped up in the combat tab (no investment in any arhcery skills yet) and now a skilled fighter

capped mining / production mastery for stats

I haven't invested on any of the hidden skills yet (Berserk, Counter punch , Doppleganger)

Heres my stats (dex is 169) was wearing heavy armor while i took the SS

This is when Im level 75 and active talent is fighter

I am now working on capping everything on the fighter talent and my questions are:

-Should I bother capping tumble and respite ?
-What should I do after I am done with fighter ? , which talent should I work on?
-When I get the Master striker title, do i get my strength back because I've had around 500-600 strength when i finished up warrior and my active talent was lance until I rebirthed into Fighter
-I have a champion knuckle fully upgraded with artisan 44 will + 5hp + speedy enchant , do i go for a red or blue stone upgrade?

If someone could make a guideline for me on what to do and work on and tell me which weapons to have/to work on whichever talent you tell me to rebirth after im done with fighter , I'll be obliged

Thanks in advance

[FONT="Arial"]I only got r1 tumble for the dex. If you have the ap for it, then sure.

My suggestion is to work on life skills after you're done with fighter (carpentry for str)
Berserk is easy str, so I would definitely do that.
You should always red up weapons unless it is a staff/wand. Sometimes cylinders are blue upped, but it depends on the play style.
Hybrid talent titles don't add or remove stats as far as I'm concerned. I'm pretty sure it's just aesthetics.

Do not touch them unless you're getting them for stats. Tumble doesn't have much of a practical use and Respite is completely useless.

-What should I do after I am done with fighter ? , which talent should I work on?

Depends on what you're aiming for.

-When I get the Master striker title, do i get my strength back because I've had around 500-600 strength when i finished up warrior and my active talent was lance until I rebirthed into Fighter

No. Hybrids don't give stats at all. Fighter doesn't give Strength either.

-I have a champion knuckle fully upgraded with artisan 44 will + 5hp + speedy enchant , do i go for a red or blue stone upgrade?

As Bunny said, always red unless its a wand/staff.

Tumble? Yes.
Respite? No.

All weapons should receive R-Type special upgrades. The only exceptions are magic weapons (until we can easily breach ~600 magic attack without) and the hurricane cylinder.

I would even say just don't rank fighter for now, and focus on most of the other STR skills.

It's better to be consistently strong in fewer skillsets rather than having more mediocrity throughout.

Ninja if you want the more power or raw damage output in your classes, puppets if you want the more MA style or soloing contents as well as some dex. In the end, you're gonna rank both anyway.

Note that chain mastery still does give you strength, that's the only reason I have that at rank 1.

Luck is very undervalued because crit can be obtained ridiculously easily.

As for dex, I agree, but if you're going to be a full melee-oriented player, the smarter choice would be to just get a Sight slapped on to your armor for easy 80 balance.. By the time you go into more classes though, dex becomes more important. Not a concern for this guy at the moment.

Luck is fucking useless. As said, crit is way too easy to get. The bonuses it applies to Lucky Gather (not Finish, which is solely based on chance and isn't affected by Luck) and Passive Evasion are pretty negligible.
