Striders are evasion based warriors who specialize in either crossbows or dual daggers/dual swords.

They are the P. Atk (melee or ranged) focused 1st job change option for Asurans.

Strengths[]

Good Damage Dealers.
High Atk.Spd.
High Eva.

Weaknesses[]

Lacks an effective healing spell.
Lower defense than Holy Warrior or Fighter.
Skills can generate aggro unintentionally.

Pets[]

A good recommendation of pets a Strider could use is a Wolf, a Skeleton, or a Harpy.

Wolf Evasion Unity (very helpful) and a Belt Ability for 10% Agility and Evasion.
Skeleton Attack Speed Unity (Not that great, but still useful) and a Belt Ability for 10% Agility and Attack Speed.
Harpy Enhanced Attack Speed Unity (Absolutely helpful) and a Belt Ability for 12% Dexterity and Attack Speed.

If you can afford the Harpy, it is the best for a Strider to use. If you can afford both the Wolf and the Skeleton, you are better off using the Wolf for its Unity, while the Skeleton is on your Belt.

Weapons[]

Those who wish to become Assassins should use:

Dual Daggers or Swords with a Str/Agi (for more evasion) or Str/Vit (to lessen your squishy) setup

Those who wish to become Shadow Hunters should use:

Crossbows with a Dex/Vit setup

Armor[]

It is recommended that armor has a Agi+Vit build to increase survivability.

Str+Agi or Attack Speed build for attack oriented build (melee)

Dex+Agi build for attack oriented build (ranged)

Striders should either wear Hunter armor or Warrior armor, depending on the second class they want to go to.
