# 1 Jadeon PVE PVP & Hybrid Build w/ Tome Guide by IIPrinceII

Heres a brief guide & skill chart for the different Jadeon builds:



Jadeon PVE Build:
Build is pretty similar to the ones u will see around forums.. this PVE build is based around Refined Vigor which comes in Tier 2.. which will greatly reduce ur cost of sp pots.. fully maxed n tome.. u wont use a single sp pot.. guaranteed.. unless u invigorate with lots of sp heavy skills n aoe..but notheless reduces sp pots greatly..

The tradeoff of maxing Refined Vigor is Frenzied Edge.. which is undoubtedly an excellent PVP bleed skill..but for PVE single attack skills r pretty much useles.. Refined Vigor will save u a bunch of gold and will allow u to grind aoe full time if u decide to without burning gold.

Jaden PVP Build: *EDITED* Different than shown in pic
Pretty much the difference is.. the points that went into Refined Vigor go into Frenzied Edge and Nature's Mystery.. Frenzied is really an excellent PVP bleed skill and Nature's Mystery is really a great slowing array skill for any jadeon looking to pvp..

My final build went maxing Nature's Mystery and 5/9 points to frenzied edge.. Many people asking y nature's mystery and the reasong being is it is an excellent slow skill maxed.. eventhough it doesnt have a tome.. it is an array skill that will constantly automatically cast for u every 5 seconds and greatly slow down ur enemy.. and it has no casting timer allowing u to focus on the rest of ur skills.. also wat slow does in pvp for a jadeon is allow u to maintain distance to work in ur spells.. endgame... even if u have the best of gear..as a jadeon.. u dont want to be up in the face of any lupin or vim.. as they can take u down in a matter of seconds.. u may think u can 1 shot them with Magnificent Spirit.. whilch holds true for lupins.. but u need to remember (they could do the same too lol) and that the cast time on MS is 60 seconds (tomed).. so in war that is not fast enough for numerous enemies.. and as for vims.. only spell jadeons can rely on to take them down is obscura.. which still might not b enough..so ur best bet is trying and slowing them down.. allowing u to maintain ur distance for ur ranged attack and creating urself some buff time

Some may ask y not Crescent Moonblade.. well honestly.. the paralazye effect on that skill is pretty weak end game and more times than none will not stick on any high lvl players.. showing "Defend" and making u feel very cold, lonely, and empty inside...

Tradeoff of getting Frenzied Edge n Nature's Mystery.. is once again the loss of Refined Vigor.. making u spend alot more money.. which as a Jadeon and having already low defense and burning hp pots doesnt seem fun..

Jadeon Hybrid Build:
This build is pretty much...... wat it says lol.. a mix between PVE and PVP.. u get Frenzied Edge.. but 1 point for Refined Vigor..which still along with tomes is not that bad..and not great.. but thats the tradeoff in this build..

My Recommendation (wat ever that is worth to u lol):
This is pretty much wat i followed..
Go PVE Build till 150.. cuz Refined Vigor will save u aloooot of money and will alow u to aoe grind without burning too much gold.. and actually still bring u out on top..
But once u get to 150 switch to PVP build if ur a little more heavier in the pocket and found a consistent way to bring in money.. which u should have by now..
Honestly the PVP Build is the better of the builds.. but it is more expensive..soo... it is all up to u

Jadeon Tome Build:
Same as u will find on forum..and honestly is best way
Follow Blade because it will get u Ancestral Virtue which will make Nameless Way another credible defense skill for jadeon...which along with Air Shield, Faithful Defender, and Ice Aptitude should keep u constantly up with a strong defense buff ..
Some may say they want to b "AOE" Jadeons..so they go for Mystic.. which honestly is a big mistake bcuz wat they dont realize is in Blade is the best AOE tome... once again Ancestral Virtue!!!
The extra hp bonus to Embodiment of Truth is ridiculous.. and honestly.. the best aoe skill for Jadeons is not even in Tier 5..but in the Virtue Tome page.. Obscura!!!!!!
Yes.. max this skill.. Buff with Embodiment of Truth and Helping Hand before u cast Obscura.. and get very confused at wat just happened to everything on the screen................ :P

Anyways.. Hope this helps u guys out. Questions.. criticisms.. flames.. discussions.. love letters welcome.. just make sure the love letters r clean n not too explicit for the kids.. (explicit love letters just pm me please)..hope to c u around in game

hmmm.. a little confused.. u asked y max out Ice Barrier? but then u said u only put 1 on it for reset? r u talking about Ice Aptitude? which resets Air Shield, Faithful Defender, n Refined Vigor? Well anyways, Ice Aptitude is not ur best def buff...but still a great one with tome.. any def buff is crucial in a jadeon build.. my def buff rotation usually goes something like this:
Air Shield > Faithful Defender > (Refined Vigor) (recover the lost sp) > Ice Aptitude (resets all of the previous skills) > AS > FD > (RV) > Nameless Way.. and repeat u should always have a def buff on u!!!
and about Ice Barrier.. well yeah.. i can see y u might think u can play with the points on this...maxing this out and getting all that defense might seem useless.. but u have to remember skills add AP... so if a vim does Nameless Technique followed by Mohun Juma on u.. dont expect to survive too long without this...which not only adds ridiculous DEF and HP Regen.. but also gives immunity to Bleed..which in my book is worth it alone
hope that answers ur question??

Wow, awesome build.

Kind of messed up because I maxed out both Refined Vigor and Frenzied Edge. I'm going to reset probably when I hit like 140 or something like that.

Question:

Nature's Mystery is it really worth putting a point into that? Can't I just put it in Refined Vigor?


Thanks a lot for the build!!!

EDIT: nvm think I figured out, you had an extra point left, but can't put into Refined Vigor because it needs atleast 3 Ancient Ice. I think...

I have a question about charge ?
Why should we level it ? Do we need it for something ? Tier 2 exceeds 24 anyway.
Is it only for the jumping quests or is there something else (chanse of removing slow effect)?

I really don't like the skill ... it helps for moving around ... but pretty much that is it!

Nature's Mystery isnt the greatest of skills.. but it depends wat ur trying to do.. PVE or PVP.. personally im not a big fan of the hybrid.. which gets u frenzied and refined vigor.. but ur pretty much "jack of all trades, ace of none".. i like acing.. so.. up to u..
If pvp.. i would go natures mystery instead of crescent moonblade.. the only other viable option really.. only because ive seen crescent not stick too many times.. making it rather useless.. Nature's mystery is an array..which means u wont have to cast anything.. it will constantly keep casting it for u... slowing the targets around.. aoe.. which is not anything special..but im sure uve noticed... people talk alot in game.. but i always find them running away in the battle field.. >.> this should help with that..and it will b a nice support for ur team too

Ur saying tier 2 exceeds 24...so im assuming ur interested in PVE build..and honestly... yeah o.0... u have a valid point.. charge is pretty useless PVE..its just when i started game.. i wasnt really big into spending 20 bucks for a skyblade.. so i quested usually.. but even then.. but honestly.. wat else would u want to add those 3 points too? frenzied edge? single attack wont really help PVE..and bleed doesnt stick on bosses.. ur left with Rage of Tireseus or Nature's Mystery.. which once again.. PVE r rather useless..

The build says PVE but it is still a rather viable option as a 150 build to go war and pvp on occassion.. therefore charge.. only reason i dont like it as a 150 build is because lack of frenzied edge..which to me is an amazing pvp bleed skill.. the only reason i love it as a 150 build is because of refined vigor on the other hand..which will help save u lots of money

Ok, wait so does Nature Mystery work with people on mount? Or its mainly targeting Modos.

Also what your take on Deep Freeze? You maxed it so I assume its useful.

Maybe you should do a PVP guide, you seem to have quite the experience.

yes...sorry.. but natures myster DOES in fact work on mounts.. just finally finalized build and it does slow all targets... including those on mounts with 88% chance and slows them down by 56% which is really credible.. a really helpful pvp spell... and also honestly.. i just really dont find crescent moonblade that helpful especially when ur 105 esper also will have paralyze..and if paralyze is wat ur looking for.. Rage of Tireseus is a viable option.. although it does have a 90 sec cooldown .. but on the plus side is an aoe paralyze.. and with tome is pretty strong.. but honestly.. im not looking for a paralyze skill cuz my bro Likwid is a vim.. and they have a far stronger aoe paralyze...its about team work!!

Deep Freeze.. yeah its a must.. maxed n tomed.. u will decrease guaranteed.. not chance.. roughly 600 defense from surrounding mobs in 30+ yards..which is pretty nice

and no.. im not pvp'er really.. i'd honestly probably get my *** kicked.. lol.. 142 n still a noob lol

Ok. I don't think you understood me. I am a level 74(75 almost). I play this game for the first time.
My question is this. Why should we level charge ? What is the benefit end-game ?

And do we even need a Skyblade at all ?
The SkyDweller's Treasure quest is bugged as far as i am reading the forums.
Is there any other need high end-game for the skyblade ? Cuz i really don't see the point ... you jump ... and fly and jump and fly and jump ...and that is pretty much it. I can do that on a mount or on foot even.

And i am sure by just saying Tier 2 and Tier 4 that there is a far better place to place 3 points than Tier 2.
