Ragnarok Online - How to Use Bowling Bash Skill effectively (Newbie Guide)

NOTE: FEEL FREE TO USE FASTER SPEED ON THE VIDEO. ALSO USE THE SUBTITLES/CC BUTTON AS WHAT I TYPED IN-GAME IS SOMEWHAT HARD TO READ.
This is for classic Ragnarok Online.
Bowling Bash is a Knight skill, counterpart of the weaker (but easier to use) Brandish Spear
This is a very good skill, probably the most immense damage output out of a Knight, SP-efficient, fast-casting, AOE spell if used right, but the drawback is the so-called "grid lines", parts of the map that should be avoided when throwing Bowling Bash.
Shoutout to the guys who revived classic Ragnarok Online in BalikRO

Ang hirap mag bowling bash pag di naka greymap di ko makita yung gutter line

[@cancancanuto797]

pre sa WOE din ba meron din ung sinasabi mong grid lines? nga pla Chaos server here :)

[@roldyplaysph]

walang knockback, that's for sure
pero pagkakaalam ko pag iwas sa grid line, nag dodoble yung bawas, correct me if im wrong

[@MrLangam]

You demonstrated it wrong. The part when you moved a couple of cells, the damage were still the same (AKA only hit once). There are still more to learn about grid lines and what you demonstrated is incomplete and ineffective..

[@roldyplaysph]

For a newbie, this is at least a start. Incomplete, yes. Ineffective? For a short period of time on the most basic of steps, this is kind of effective already, and the likes-to-dislikes bar on the video would prove it.
You can share your thoughts or make your own video though if you have any other more efficient ways of using the skill. Thanks!

[@bruskydu]

Kailangan po ba both coordinates ay hindi divisible by 40?? Or kahit 1 lang dun sa dalawa?? Thanks

[@roldyplaysph]

Kailangan both.

[@martyhawk2020]

Wow thanks sa video

[@TengoYT]

hi. 1 question. avoid 40's pattern in x and y? or just one of them?

[@roldyplaysph]

X and Y, Sir. Both of them. Cheers!

[@TengoYT]

@@roldyplaysph Thank you! I also discovered that the x axis affects 5 cells up and the "y" 5 to the right

[@shichi2321]

ty so much.

[@TheMerryjaneocol]

Sir, bakit sa WoE may times na "skill has failed" pag naBB ako?

[@roldyplaysph]

Maraming kaso. Baka lag ka. Or wala ka ng weapon dahil stripped/basag na. Or naka aspersio ka. Or dahil mataas agi ng kalaban, or dahil mabilis tumakbo ka-cast ka pa lang wala na sa area kalaban mo, or may status. Di ko na rin maalala matagal na kong di nag ra-Ragna.

[@RavinFox]

Whats this song is this? Is it from DJ max or something?

[@roldyplaysph]

RavinFox O2Jam! =D

[@xSobhan]

[@roldyplaysph]

Just Dance (O2Jam)

[@jmcaazura]

thanks

[@mcmac2202]

Sir, ano po stat and skill build niyo? :) Paturo naman po

[@roldyplaysph]

SVD Knight WOE build, generic Job 2-2 RO classic server setup.
Pause mo sa 5:55 nandyan stats ko. Pagtimpla nyan ay Str na ang dulo ay 0 para walang aksaya sa points, total Vit na close to 100 para no curse and other status, Dex na 40-50 para sa casting at pag-"kagat" ng status pike, the rest Agi para at least kung emergency/last minute Emp break may konting bilis ka humataw gamit Muramasa (at no curse kasi naka ~100 Vit ka).

[@stevanussamudra5533]

and whats your stats? thankyou

[@roldyplaysph]

This Knight is a Str-Vit-Dex Knight (WoE-ready), generic Job 2-2 RO classic server setup.
Pause at 5:55 to see my stats. Str ones digit should end at 0 to not waste points, total Vit should be close to 100 to avoid being cursed and other statuses, Dex around 40-50 for added casting speed, and to have more success applying statuses using your status pike, the rest can be placed to Agi for you to at least have a passable ASPD should you use a Muramasa for last-minute/emergency Emperium break.
