Ok, let's see what I can do... Weapons Water would probably be the best no-drop element. Blazing and Terra Bloodzerker Swords are still the top options for their respective elements. MADM Arsenal gives the same damage boost as Bloodzerker blades, but without the hp cost. Alternatively, Haunted Dragonlord's Might deals slightly reduced damage to recover sp based on your number of hits, so great with Werewolf's 4-hit Beast Form. Horo-Show sword gives you Harm damage, in case you run into low-resist monsters. Thundersplitter toggles to autohit, in case you run into a monster with high MRM. Your strongest light nuke would be Paladin's Overwhelming Light, so you'd want something to synergize with that. Mystic Retro Golden Axe (heals sp each time you use a spell-type skill) or Lion's Roar (+37.5% damage with spell-type skills against undead) would fill that niche. Once Blarney rolls around, you might also want to check out Alchemical Unity, which inflicts Blind based on damage dealt, making it highly overpowered with weapon-based nukes. Infinita Staff is the best sp-regen weapon we have, as it recovers sp based on damage dealt. Armors As you already have werewolf transformation no-drop, you don't really need a second earth armor. Hexbound Solar Core is a straight-up upgrade on Bloodzerker. It pays more hp (in form of a fire burn) for higher damage on attack, and has a skill that does 1.5x damage of a standard skill. Quenching Bloodzerker gives high damage at low cost. Wind is probably the most under-represented element for warriors right now, and I can't offer you anything better than your own Haunted Dragonlord. Knightmare Plate is a step above Hand of Tera'Suul. You can lock it to ice damage for a free damage boost (after scrambling monster resists with PCO) or pay sp to add celerity on top of that. H-Series Tempest Armor is probably the best warrior armor we have. Its toggle locks you to energy damage with celerity, it has a weapon-based skill (that can be paired with celerity), and an Initiative Boost that gives +50% damage during first round if you get the drop on the monster. Best used with Lucretia's Ambush potion for maximum initiative. Paladin has been revamped into an endgame class with 20+ skills. It has a vast array of nukes, stat and effect toggles, healing, ressurection, light booster guest, and more. Best against undead, but fairly good against light monsters as well. Angel of Souls' skill pays hp, which makes it much more spammable than the other options. Shields Cerberus Ward compresses fire/darkness. Your Accordion Shield gives +20 Control Potence. Paired with Pridelord guest and Spotter Drake pet, that's +50 potency to Love Potion's stun. Pies has Cha drive. Chieftain's Ironthorn has been revamped into a Str drive shield. Don't forget to upgrade yours to lvl 150 tier. Umazen Aspis has amazing synergy with Queen's Corgi guest. Alternatively, Mindbreaker Shield has a 1/turn qc skill that inflicts DefLoss and Blind. Against Undead, you'd want to use the shield from Paladin Armaments skill (as it uses Paladin's light res for all elements). Against light monsters, Mana Crystal Defender (gives Barrier whenever you use a spell-type skill). If you have the tokens, TropoShield is an amazing utility option. It has low resistances, but pays sp and defences to inflict a powerful EleVuln (fire, earth, energy only) each time you attack. It's the closest thing we have to the old CIT. Spells Keep Dunamis, Purple Rain, Pridelord. Mosquito, mentioned above, is great at restoring hp, and doubles as a healing guest. The healing is /WindRes, so you can effectively use it against monster of any element. Essence of Carnage is a booster guest. It gives less of a boost than Dunamis, but it comes with harm Backlash, which might be more useful when fighting high-damage mobs or ones with punishing damage caps. Invincible Heart makes you effectively invulnerable for a turn. Great for weathering a monster nuke or using an elecomped armor skill against monster of an opposite element. There's a lot of options for your remaining two slots, so I'll just list them out and let you choose for yourself: - Bun-Banneret guest (returns some time in March) toggles to give you a powerful DefBoost. With a Bun-Banneret pet, you should be blocking over a half of monster's attacks, in case you want to try a more defensive gameplay. - Mogdin guest (returns in... a while) is the second most powerful stun guest we have. - Prototype Hunter Drone is a 1.5x damage Harm guest, in case you need more Harm damage. - Chromatic Channeling is a very unique sort of Imbue that gives you Str, Melee lock, random element lock, and inflicts a Poison that heals you. Kind of a mishmash of stuff, and it costs a turn, but rather nice if you want to mix some nuke with healing. - Santarctic Crusher can be handy against monster with punishing damage caps. - If you have tokens to spare, Imbue spells are of great help against monsters with Form Shift immunity. Pets Keep Dunamis and Underwyrmling. Angra Linnorm is a pet version of EoC. Again, not as strong a boost as Dunamis, but it comes Backlash. Lepre-Chan (returns in March) is a f2p light booster pet. Spotter Drake gives +12 Status Potence. Mosquito is great for sp recovery and doubles as a healing pet. Bun-Banneret gives you blocking. Woolzard (currently in the Void) is the only pet that inflicts Sleep. Miscs Keep Essence Orb, Blood Contract, SFP. Resistance miscs have kinda left the meta a while ago. Most battles pass too quickly for them to make a difference, and the sheer amount of slots they take up keeps you from using a lot of more interesting miscs. Prime Chaos Orb (in your storage) has a qc skill that scrambles monster resists. Use it a few times until the monster is vulnerable to its own element, and your elecomped armor nukes make short work of the monster. Love Potion gives you a stackable qc stun. With Accordion shield, Pridelord guest, and Spotter Drake pet, you get a whooping +50 bonus to save, which should enable you to stun any monster that doesn't have Freedom. With Purple Rain and Essence Orb, you can keep it stunned for the entire battle. Helm of Frostval Past gives a free qc accuracy boost 1/battle. Optico gives +10 Status Potence. Queen's Crown gives you the strongest stun guest in the game. Hope the information is useful, and don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions!
