Ok, Hi.  My name is Sojirosai and welcome to my Ragnarok Online (RO) Rogue FAQ!

ONLINE FAQ AND READ THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF RO.
Please if you see any mistakes in this FAQ, or have something that i can add,

If you have anything better than this than the game will probably run faster
Once you have downloaded the game from the Ragnarok Website
(www.enweb.ragnarok.co.kr)
AND registered (Registration opens again sometime in February) Then you start
the game
and the first thing that appears is the Patch Server. It will take a few minutes
to
download some of the patches but it will be well worth it once you've played the
game.
After it has downloaded then read the Ragnarok Notice, so that you now what's
going on at
the moment, and click "Start Game". The first thing you'll see is the
disclaimer.
You can read it if you like but it's just like all of the other "I AGREE"
disclaimers
you've probably seen. Once clicking AGREE it will pop up the character screen,
where
it all begins. Just click on one of the big empty boxes and hit CREATE. It will
then
bring you to the "Creation Center" where you can choose your characters Hair
style,
Hair color, and their Beginning Stats.
The beginning stats is the one of the most important things you'll use to decide
what
job you want to be. For this FAQ we will, of course, be using thief as the job
to start
with.
(from here goto the THIEF BUILDS section of this FAQ and deside which type of
thief
you want to be, then come back here)
Once you have done all that, you will appear in front of a castle. Go inside and
the
guard will ask you if you want to go ahead and start playing, or go inside and
learn
more about the game. I suggest you go inside. Talk to the people behind the
counters
to see what you need to do. Eventualy you'll get to a spot where you take a
personality
test. TRY TO ANSWER EVERY QUESTION HOW YOU THINK A THIEF WOULD ANSWER. Your
results
should be them telling you that they suggest you be a thief. Go along with what
they say
and  you should leave the castle with about 200z and some stuff to help you
along the
trail to becomeing a thief. You should appear in Morroc, the thief town. If not,
then just
fight the mosters around the area untill you have about 1000z so you can buy a
warp to
Morroc. Then just fight Drops, ChonChons, and Pickys untill you reach Job Level
9. Once
you have become Job Lv. 9 then you are ready to become a thief.

IV. BECOMING A THIEF
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Once you have become Job Lv. 9 and in Morroc, goto the North-east Exit of the
town and
continue North-east untill you are in front of the Pyrimids. You might see a
couple people
sitting out side of the entrance. When you are completely healed go inside, and
go to the
very center of the Maze. You'll see a portal going downstairs into the thief
guild. Go into
all of the doors until you find a room with two people behind a counter. This is
where you
Register to become a thief. But that isn't it, Oh no... You still have to take a
small quest
to see if you have what it takes to be a thief.
The Thief guild will tell you to goto the farm and "steal" mushrooms. To do
this, you will
leave the pyrymids and outside, towards the center of the map, will see a guy
named
"Bogus Man". Talk to him and he will warp you to the farm where your supposed to
steal the
mushrooms. You are to get 25 "POINTS". The point work out to:
Net Mushrooms: 3 Points
and
Gooey Mushrooms: 1 Point
Once you have collected them then goto the south of the map and you'll find the
exit.
from there on go back into the Pyrimids, into the center of the maze, and into
the
Thief guild. There you will talk to the same person you talked to for
registration and
you will finally become A THIEF!!

You you really want to have awesome vitality and hp regeneration, then I suggest

Comments: Max this to Lv. 10 before everything else. This attack when working
hits the
enemy very vast and requires no SP. The greatr thing about this attack is that
it stunns

_______________________________________________________________________________
Steal:
Pre-requisites: None
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 20 SP
Comments: When you get this item, don't be afraid to play around with it a
little.
You can get some pretty rare things, and don't worry, monsters don't get angery
and
attack when you use steal.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Hide:
Pre-requisites: None
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: 10 to Hide, SP drained while hiding - less is drained in higher Hide
Lvls
Comment from Weggy's Faq: This can be used for 2 reasons: Escape from a mob of
angry
aggressives.  This is great for a Thief since AGI does NOT do well against
many enemies at once.  It also has a nasty secondary use - if a under-leveled
character is trying to kill steal from you, hide.  All of a sudden, they're
the tank for the enemy they have no business in hitting.  Do it, come back,
and laugh at them.  Serves the jerks right!!
My comment: i love that idea
______________________________________________________________________________
Detoxify:
Pre-requisites: Level 3 Envenom
Active or Passive?: Active
SP Use: (don't know yet)
Comment: pretty useless when you can just carry around a few green herbs...

Lvl 2- Lowers the Def of an enemy by 7 and Dodge rate by 12% SP-6
Lvl 3- Lowers the Def of an enemy by 9 and Dodge rate by 14% SP-7
Lvl 4- Lowers the Def of an enemy by 11 and Dodge rate by 16% Sp-8
Lvl 5- Lowers the Def of an enemy by 13 and Dodge rate by 18% Sp-9
Comments: This could be a pretty good skill if your fighting enemies with high
dodge. It also uses low SP, so you can use it multiple times without having to
sit and energize.

Enfeeble
Lvl 1- Lowers the Atk of an enemy by 5 and Dex by 3 SP-5
Lvl 2- Lowers the Atk of an enemy by 7 and Dex by 5 SP-6

Lvl 4- Lowers the Atk of an enemy by 11 and Dex by 9 SP-8
Lvl 5- Lowers the Atk of an enemy by 13 and Dex by 11 SP-9
Comments: Also could be of some use. This could help you with not getting hit
as hard as you could be. Use this with Halt to downsize your enemies.
______________________________________________________________________________
Drain

Lvl 2- Lowers the Int of an enemy by 7 and SP by 30 SP-6

use this when PvP comes out, when fighting mages, and other magic people.

for a short pperiod of time, and you also have a chance to get a rare drop.
