Explanation:
Storm Spike is favored more than Strafe because of its mobbing ability. Storm Spike defeats multiple enemies quickly, giving you more space to move around without getting bumped into monsters. Start by maxing Bow Mastery and Physical Training to increase your base damage followed by capping Storm Spike at Level 15. After that, get Double Jump to speed up travel further and increase the supportive skill duration for Bow Booster and Soul Arrow. Next, max Final Attack and Wind Walk for secondary additional damage.

Some training ground have multiple platforms, and Arrow Rain skill excels in dealing with this situation.

LV1: 11 MP, 66% Damage. Lasts 110 sec.
LV10: 20 MP, 120% Damage. Lasts 200 sec.

Skill Build: Everything maxed except Somersault Kick.
1. Add 1 SP into Somersault Kick.
2. Max Dash, Lightning and Quick Motion.
3. Max Shadow Heart and HP Boost.
4. Dump remaining SP into Somersault Kick.

Explanation:
Somersault Kick will be your primary attacking skill as a 1st Job Thunder Breaker. Add 1 SP (Skill Point) to unlock the skill. Max Dash (speed up travelling between towns and hunting grounds) followed by Lightning (spirit to aid you in battle) and Quick Motion (increases your accuracy to hit monsters above your level with more success). Shadow Heart and HP Boost can be maxed later on since most monsters at this stage are manageable with 1-2 hit KO. HP Boost raises your Max Health Points so you will have less risk of dying in 1 hit when inflicted with powerful damage by high level monsters especially boss. Shadow Heart increases your Critical Rate so you can deal extra damage but this works best with skills that hit monsters multiple times instead of 1. The reason Lightning is maxed instead of Somersault Kick is because of 3 reasons. First, there is a skill known as Spark (3rd Job Skill) which enhances the spirit to attack more enemies. Secondly, most monsters in 1st Job can be killed in a maximum of 2 hits from Somersault Kick. Third, Lightning is kinda handy during 2nd Job since it will help you kill the remaining monsters should they have a few HP (Health) left after you execute your 2nd Job Offensive skill.

Thunder Breaker 2nd Job Skill Build Guide

Knuckle Mastery (Passive)
Permanently increases knuckle mastery and accuracy.
LV1: 12% Mastery, +6 Accuracy
LV20: 50% Mastery, +120 Accuracy

Knuckle Booster (Supportive)
[REQUIRE] LV5 Knuckle Mastery.
Temporarily reduce regular and skill attack delay.
LV1: 30 MP, Lasts 10 sec.
LV20: 11 MP, Lasts 200 sec.

Corkscrew Blow (Active)
Attack 6 enemies 1 time by charging forward with a punch while knock-backing them.
LV1: 11 MP, 286% Damage.
LV10: 20 MP, 340% Damage.

Energy Charge (Passive)

You also have a chance to activate a Stance (Resist enemy’s knockback) that allows you to use energy-type skills. Energy charges twice as fast when attacking bosses.
LV1: +15 Accuracy, +1 W.Attack, +15 Defense, +12 Speed. 10% Stance. Lasts 22 sec.
LV20: +300 Accuracy, +30 W.Attack, +300 Defense, +50 Speed. Lasts 60 sec. Lasts 60 sec.

Energy Blast (Active)
[REQUIRE] LV1 Energy Charge.
Attack 6 enemies 2 times with a very close range burst attack.
This skill can only be activated when energy is fully charged.
LV1: 343% Damage.
LV20: 400% Damage.

Dark Clarity (Supportive)

LV1: 15 MP, +1 W.Attack, +84 Accuracy. Lasts 66 sec.

LV1: +3 STR, +3 DEX.
LV10: +30 STR, +30 DEX.

Tornado Uppercut (Active)
Attack 6 enemies 1 time with a powerful moving tornado.
LV1: 18 MP, 318% Damage.
LV20: 24 MP, 375% Damage.

Skill Build: Everything maxed except Corkscrew Blow and Energy Blast.
1. Add 1 SP into Tornado Uppercut, Energy Charge and Energy Blast.
2. Max Knuckle Mastery, Dark Clarity and Physical Training.
3. Add 12 SP into Knuckle Booster.
4. Max Tornado Uppercut, Energy Charge and Knuckle Booster.
5. Dump remaining SP into Energy Blast.
6. No SP added into Corkscrew Blow.

Explanation:
Tornado Uppercut is maxed instead of Corkscrew Blow is because it has lower attack delay and it can hit monsters who are located far away from you. With that convenience, it allows a more efficient training especially monsters located on different platform levels. Therefore, add 1 SP into Tornado Uppercut as it will be Thunder Breaker 2nd Job primary skill for leveling. Also add 1 SP into Energy Charge (to take advantage of the passive effects during transformation) and Energy Blast (deals high damage against monsters with lots of health). Max your damage boosting skills (Knuckle Mastery, Dark Clarity, Physical Training) and add 12 SP into Knuckle Booster to speed up your attacks. Without early Knuckle Booster, most Thunder Breaker attack feels sluggish and usually getting bump into agitated monsters if you couldn’t kill them in the first attack. Finally, max Tornado Uppercut to boost its damage and Knuckle Booster to reduce the hassle to recast it so often. Dump the remaining skill points into Energy Blast. Even if the Energy Blast isn’t max, it still does pretty awesome damage for a 2 hit kill monster whereas Tornado Uppercut would probably take twice the time compared to Energy Blast at max level.

LV1: 60 MP, Lasts 180 sec. Cooldown 200 sec.

Skill Build: Everything maxed except Landlubber Blast.
1. Add 1 SP into Shark Wave, Buccaneer Blast and Landlubber Blast.
2. Max Buccaneer Blast, Opportunistic Fighter, Precision Strikes and Shark Wave.
3. Max Spark, Speed Infusion, Octopunch and Roll of the Dice.

Explanation:
Thunder Breaker 3rd Job Primary Attacking Skill will be Buccaneer Blast. However, this skill requires recharge. Therefore, add 1 SP into Shark Wave and Landlubber Blast to help with the recharging. Both of these skills have their pros and cons. Use Shark Wave when enemies are far away from you whereas Landlubber to dish out massive damage at close range. Most of the time, I would use Landlubber Blast on higher level monsters (takes 2 to 3 hits to kill) in a tightly pack area. Landlubber attacking range is 2 times shorter compared to Shark Wave and it could not affect enemies who are on a platform separated even if they are on the same level/height as you.

MapleStory Dawn Warrior (Soul Master) is a Cygnus Knight Warrior Class who specializes in both 1 handed and 2 handed swords. They are still able to wield other warrior weapons such as Polearm, Spear, Axe, Blunt Weapons but will deal unstable damage due to lack of Weapon Mastery in those fields. Primary Stat is STR (Strength), therefore, channel all of your AP (Ability Points) into STR using the Auto AP Distribution. DEX (Dexterity) isn’t required for accuracy since if you are same or higher level than the monster, you will be able to hit it them frequently with success. They reach 1st job at level 10, 2nd job at level 30 and 3rd job at level 70. [NOTE] MapleSEA refer this class as Soul Master whereas GMS (Global MapleStory) refers this as Dawn Warrior.

Dawn Warrior 1st Job Skill Build: Everything maxed but except Power Strike.
1. Add 1 SP into Power Strike, Slash Blast and Soul.
2. Max Slash Blast, Soul, Iron Body and HP Boost.
3. Dump remaining SP into Power Strike.

Explanation:
Add 1 SP (Skill Point) into Power Strike to unlock Slash Blast. Slash Blast will be your primary attacking skill as a 1st Job Dawn Warrior. Use it against mobs of monsters populated in tight corner or platform to maximize the leveling effectiveness. Power Strike will not be required to be maxed since it will be replaced with a better offensive skill in 2nd job advancement. After maxing Slash Blast, continue with maxing Soul to help you in 1 hit kill weaker enemies or dealing extra damage to higher level monsters. Iron Body and HP Boost does not help much in training at this job but would be helpful when you reach higher levels. HP Boost decreases the risk of dying easily when dealing with boss powerful attacks whereas Iron Body save some HP (Health Points) when you bump into monsters.

Dawn Warrior 2nd Job Skill Build: Everything maxed except Brandish and Soul Blade.
1. Add 1 SP into Soul Blade, Soul Rush and Rage.
2. Max Sword Mastery, Physical Training and Rage.
3. Max Soul Rush, Sword Booster and Final Attack.
4. Max Power Reflection.
5. No SP added into Brandish.

Explanation:
Soul Blade is much more flexible compared to Brandish since it can hit multiple enemies located on different platform close and far away from you. Therefore, add 1 SP into Soul Blade instead of Brandish. You could add 1 SP into Brandish to try it out but you will need to remove 1 SP from another supportive skill (e.g. Sword Booster). Max Sword Mastery to raise your minimum damage so you will hit a more stable damage. This is followed by Physical Training which will raise your STR and DEX. With some dexterity, you will be able to have some accuracy to accurately hit monsters above your level and finally max Rage to temporarily boost your min and max damage while training. This guide does not max any offensive skills since it will soon to be replaced with 3rd job advancement skills. Most monsters below level 60 can be 1 hit KO using Level 1 Soul Blade with all 3 damage boosting skills (Rage, Sword Mastery and Physical Training) maxed. Since we have offensive skills covered in 3rd job, it would be wise to channel those unused SP (Skill Points) into 2nd job supportive skills.

Dawn Warrior 3rd Job Skill Build: Everything maxed.
1. Add 1 SP into Intrepid Slash.
2. Max Radiant Charge and Combo Attack.
3. Add 10 SP into Self Recovery.
4. Save remaining SP until you reach level 90 and max Soul Driver.
5. Max Self Recovery.
6. Save remaining SP until you reach level 100 and max Advanced Combo.
7. Max Intrepid Slash, Coma, Panic and Magic Crash.

Explanation:
Intrepid Slash will be your primary attacking skill for 3rd job until you unlock Soul Driver at level 90. Soul Driver is a much efficient skill in eliminating multiple mobs and best with 1 hit KO. Currently, you will only need to add 1 SP into Intrepid Slash first to use for leveling. Max out Radiant Charge and Combo Attack. Add 10 SP into Self Recovery and save remaining SP for Soul Driver. Self Recovery is very helpful especially when it comes to replenishing your MP after you use Soul Rush for travelling wide large maps.
After reaching level 90, max Soul Driver followed by Self Recovery and save SP again for Advanced Combo Attack which will be unlocked at level 100. Max Advanced Combo Attack and the rest of the skills in your preference. I don’t use Panic or Coma much during training, mostly spamming Soul Driver against bosses and mobs.
