How to Create the Best Swordsman Build in Ragnarok Origin

Since you have completed the tutorial and learned some basic skills as an adventurer you should be at level 10 and ready to choose your class. This is a big decision and your choice really depends on your personal play style and if you prefer to play solo or with friends (or both!)

Swordsman Stat Build

If you have chosen to be the tank-like Swordsman as you first job you are likely to be focussing mainly on Team play but can definitely survive solos too. The Swordsman likes to be at the front of the battle, being a good tank for their team. They are powerful in combat and are your team’s protector, taking head-on damage.

Picking the right stats to spend points on is important. Some stats are not useful to a class who prefers to be at the frontline like the Swordsman. INT is mainly for magic-focussed heroes, and although VIT may be useful for the max. HP boost, it is not what we would recommend spending the majority of the points on. Instead, a Swordsman should be spreading their Attribute Points on DEX, STR, and AGI.

This stat spread will help you build a strong Swordsman (base level 10) who progresses into a Knight as a second job (base level 40), and then a Lord Knight as their third and ultimate job (base level 70).

All Ragnarok Origin available stats

As you play and level up you will accrue Attribute Points which you spend on raising your stats. It is not recommended that you spend your points on every stat on the board, however, but instead focus on strengthening stats specific to your class. The available stats are:

• STR – to increase melee weapon damage and max. inventory weight
• AGI – to increase attack speed and FLEE (the ability to dodge some attacks)
• VIT – to increase max. HP, defense, and HP regeneration
• INT – to increase magic attack, max SP, and SP regeneration
• DEX – to increase damage of ranged weapons, casting speed and hit chance
• LUK – to increase critical rate and critical defense

How to level up in Ragnarok Origin

Get more Attribute Points to spend on stats by leveling up as much as possible. You can level up quickly by doing any and all of the following:

• Quests: do any of your Daily Quests that reward you with EXP, take part in Story Quests, Side Quests and Adventure Quests as they award EXP even when you are fatigued.
• AFK Grinding: grind until your Combat Time has run out to earn EXP. This could be done before doing some of the questing as your character will be fatigued after hours of grinding but still available to do some side quests.
