some people may overlook this, but upgrading your weapons can be a HUGE help. a lot of people just save thier money to buy better equips, and if they get a 100 prof weapon, they just sell it. upgrading your weapon wisely can make a big improvment, and i know from experience. i recently had nerys upgrade my bsword, which improved it's min. and max. attack by 20 each! this made my attacks much more powerful, and can kill bosses quicker. it still costs the same to repair, although it is a better weapon. however, be careful and decisive on your upgrades, as most of the good ones have some downsides too (it lost 5 max dur, and the already lame critical), and can cost a lot of money and profiency. but dont bother on getting cheaper upgrades without a downside. but each equip can oly be upgraded so many times, and different upgrades each time.most of you probably already knew all this already, but for those of you living inn the stone age, there will be a dual-wield patch in g4, so two bswords may be better than a claymore. you might want to get some prof up on them now, i am. a good place to look up tons of mab stuff, including future patches and a complete upgrading list, go to http://wiki.mabinogiworld.com/index.php?title=Wiki_Home
