One class combining with another class, can either be very weak or they can make an unstoppable team.
The design is simple, to kill most members of the opposite fraction or to grind the best they can without anyone having to die. So here we go:
Pagan/Mage + Guardian/Defender
Guardians build is specifically designed to duo with a pagan. As the guardian gathers all the mobs, stuns them, then taunts so they stay on him, the pagan attacks with his powerful aoe (area of effect) magic.
The thing to remember is to WAIT till the guardian uses his skill Taunt, because if you attack before, the monsters might come back at you.
This is mostly the fastest way to gain high level, duo of Pagan and Guardian. Also it's good for farming lapis, armours, weapons etc.
Pagans have some powerful aoe attacks, which makes that a good grinding partner, because they can kill more monsters at once.
Guardians are good at taking a lot of damage, they can survive a lot of attacks with a good build.
PvP (Player vs Player) on the other hand is not friendly to Pagans. Because of their full INT build, they can maybe survive dealing one aoe attack, before a fighter or warrior kills them with one hit. We call them "squishy" :P Experimentng with builds or lapising your gear with pure REC, might help you survive a few attacks, but thats all up to you.
This is the second best duo you can find in this game.
Warrior has a strong attack and can evade a lot of hits, dealing a tremendous damage to monsters when grinding. Also, with the help of an Oracle, warrior can gather mobs exactly like the guardian and killing them with his powerful aoe attacks.
Oracle is his "Life saver". With his healing powers, Oracle keeps the warrior alive for a long time and so making the grinding more efficient. With each level Oracles can heal more and with that making them more desirable in every party combination.
As for PvP, Warriors are true killers. Mostly, because they can kill Oracles and Pagans very fast, that way leaving the Defenders and Fighters defensless and an easy target(speaking from the opposite fraction, since Fighters equal to Warriors etc, so it can be the other way around too^^).
In most grinding parties or pvp, you can see Guardians, Warriors, Oracles and Pagans working together. It makes the leveling slower when there are more people, but you can clear ares faster, so it really makes up for it.
These two classes are actually meant as solo classes.
You cant see a lot of Hunters or Assassins in grinding parties, because of their lack of Aoe Skills. They usually grind solo, killing one monster after another, and thus making them really hard to level. Making one of these classes is a true challenge.
As for pvp, Hunters and Assassins are really appreciated and great battle companions. Hunters with their wide ranged attack, can kill an opponent with one shot from a large distance. Assassins are famous for their stunning skills, making the opponent unable to move and attack, so making them an easy target for others to finish off. Also, assassins have the ability to make them invisible and go to the opponent to spy on them. It lasts short, but every information is a good information. ^^
This shouldnt affect how YOU will play the game. Various party combinations have been made with great results, you just have to experiment a little bit and find out which party combination works best for you.
Enjoy playing Shaiya. ^^
