Jester

From Flyff Wiki

A male Bow Jester with Cruiser set

When you reach level 60 as an Acrobat, you will be able to become a Jester.

Jesters, who have less defense power than attack power, is a derived from an acrobat who uses a yo-yo as a main weapon.

Jesters possess a large range of attacks. Unlike the court jester of medieval times, these Jesters are masters of trickery and are literally bloodthirsty fighters. They use yo-yos along with dark magic to drain blood in order to replenish their own health, inject poison into foes, launch coins to dent enemy armor, and impair their victims by attacking vital organs. They receive four times as much Critical Hit Rate from the Dexterity stat than any other class. Jester abilities include Enchant Poison and Vital Stab to attack an enemy's vital parts.

There are also Bow Jesters who use bows. Although they are unable to use any Jester skills, they take advantage of the Jester's high critical hit rate per dex to obtain as much as 100% critical. Bow Jesters used to be intensely disliked by other classes because they were often seen as cheating, but the removal of knockbacks from PvP and the growing popularity of HoP Yoyo-jesters has mostly resolved this conflict. Many jesters are seen using hyper/cruiser sets due to the fact that the full set increases the power of their critical hits by 40%.

[edit] Skills

All Jester skills require a Yoyo. Equipping a weapon that is not a yoyo will cancel any active self-buffs.
