Overview Flyff Fly For Fun OverviewFlyff is a lighthearted MMORPG with simple and cute animations. The game's name comes from the ability to take to the air starting at Level 20 with the help of a broom or skateboard. While flight is mainly a form of faster transportation, there are floating islands to explore and monsters to fight in the skies. Flyff has a job class advancement system, where new players start as classless Vagrants and make job advancements at key milestone levels. While Fly for Fun enjoyed a fair degree of global success following its 2005 release, it has since started to show its age.
Progression is mainly grind-reliant with quests few and far between. Classes Flyff Fly For Fun ClassesPlayers start out as classless Vagrants and make their first class advance at Level 15, their second at 60, and third at 130. Assist – oddly named, Assists use either melee knuckle weapons to deal AoE damage or magic sticks to cast spells and buffs. Billposter – equiped with a melee knuckle weapon and a shield, Billposters are the most self-sufficient class in Flyff.
Force Master – the Billboster's third job, Force Masters have a wider range of party abilities and deal greater damage. Ringmaster – the primary buffer class in Flyff. They use a variety of spells and abilities to enhance themselves and their allies. Seraph – the Ringmaster's third job, Seraphs have access to even greater healing and assist skills.
I could not add acrobats of their advanced classes because Gpotato is too stupid to make an updated fansite kit. Even though acrobats came out YEARS ago. I think we can all agree and Gpotato.
They can even make their targets temporarily immortal. Acrobat – equipped with bows or yoyos, Acrobats attack from a distance. They rely on speed and accuracy to finish their foes before they approach. Jester – the yoyo specialization of the Acrobat.
Jesters have a wide range of skills and can even use their penya (money) to increase damage or dodge attacks. Harlequin – the Jester's third job, Harlequins use stealth and quick combos to deal lethal damage to their targets from behind. Ranger – the bow specialization of the Acrobat. Rangers deal heavy damage from afar and can silence opponents. Crackshooter – the Ranger's third job, Crackshooters have much longer range and can equip crossbows. Magician – the primary offensive spell caster class.
Full Review Flyff Fly For Fun ReviewBy Jayne MossFly For Fun, or Flyff for short, is one of a handful of MMORPGs that led me into appreciating the genre almost a decade ago. The game originally launched in South Korea back in 2004 by Gala Labs and made its way to the US on December 25, 2005. The game has been an incredible success for Gala Lab Corp, as the game is available in 13 countries and in 10 different languages. The game was originally published by gPotato in the US but is now available through Webzen as Flyff Gold. Since its release, Flyff has gone through many major updates. The fact that Flyff has survived for almost 9 years when so many other games have launched and shut down clearly shows that the game remains popular. The graphics are not the most impressive, but the art style is lighthearted and cartoon-like.
Low-leveled monsters border on looking like adorable stuffed animals and animated mushrooms, with higher level enemies looking more imposing. Those who have played or should feel right at home with the game's cutesy graphics.Starting UpAfter logging into Flyff for the first time, players are prompted to create their character. Those who are expecting to spend hours in the character creation stage, however, may be sorely disappointed. There are only a handful of hair and face options, and though hair color appears as an option, I was unable to change it.
And that’s about it. This is where Flyff begins to show its age. On the brighter side, each character has a four digit bank code, giving players an extra level of security for their account. Flyff isn’t the only game to do this, either.
Plenty of publishers are adding this extra layer of security to keep players' accounts safe.Once in the world, a helpful penguin pops up and begins the tutorial. Players have the option of simply hiding this pop up, but it only takes a few minutes to learn the controls and start toward the first quest. Movement can either be done through the WASD keys or by clicking the ground with the mouse, but I found clicking to be too unreliable, and often I would run into trees or fences while trying to walk around. ClassesThe only requirement to advance to the first job class is to complete another simple fetch quest for a trainer. Players can’t change classes without making a new character, so choose carefully. Do you want to be in the thick of things as a Mercenary, or will you want to be able to heal others as an Assist?
Yes, the support class is actually named, “Assist.” Come on, Gala Labs, be a little more creative than that! Make sure to plan accordingly, as the class chosen at Level 15 will impact the choices available at Level 60 and 130.At Level 60, these classes branch into two paths.
Acrobats get Jester and Ranger, Magicians get Psykeeper and Elementor, Assists get Billposter and Ringmaster, and Mercenary gets Blade and Knight. These classes advance again at Level 130, becoming a Harlequinn, Crackshooter, Mentalist, Arcanist, Force Master, Seraph, Slayer, and Templar, respectively. This is a total of 8 endgame classes, which isn’t a bad amount of variety for a game released in 2005. GameplayAfter choosing a class, the game opens up more.
Players are able to traverse the world of Madrigal, which is a huge space that holds several different continents to fly between. And though there are plenty of places to see, the same grinding found early in the game is present throughout the entire game.While there are quests in Flyff, there is little variety. More often than not, the quests are just a veiled reason to grind a particular monster. Unlike newer MMORPGs, which rely more on story to push players through all of the content, Flyff has players focus on grinding. There has also been nearly a decade of content updates since launch to help keep the game fresh, and even now there are still weekly maintenance updates. Like and several other MMORPGs, players in Fly For Fun can rebirth after reaching Level 120 to become a master.
Upon becoming a master, players are returned to Level 60 with additional stats and can work their way back towards the Level 150 level cap. The experience rate is fairly quick early on but slows down significantly towards mid-late game. Flying through the SkiesFlying becomes available at Level 20, and for many it will be too little, too late. Those who can endure playing through the early game may find the game’s flying aspect rewarding. Flying allows players to travel much faster around the world, and avoid many of the enemies that will attack on the way back to towns.
There are even some enemies that can be fought in the air, though players are unable to use any abilities while flying, making it important to choose fights carefully.Flying is the feature that made Flyff stand out as an MMORPG when it was released. Most games were only just beginning to feature mounts, and none gave the player the ability of controlled flight whatsoever.

Today, flying mounts are a staple of many MMORPGs, but Flyff was one of the first games to do it. Social FunctionsAn interesting feature seen in Flyff is the game’s salary system. Guild leaders can set up a daily salary that will be awarded to guild members, adjusted for rank. It really brings a group together to work for a common goal when they’re directly benefiting from the guild’s accomplishments.
There is also a guild warehouse, where members can deposit and withdraw items and Flyff’s currency, penya. The penya deposited into the warehouse is used to pay member salaries and anyone can contribute to this pool of money.Flyff, like other MMORPGs, has a Guild vs.
Guild PvP system. Guilds can declare war on each other, allowing their members to openly PvP with each other on a grander level anywhere in the game world. To go along with this feature is, of course, the option to declare a peace, and to give up, resulting in a loss for the quitting guild.
Once a week, there are Guild Sieges, longer, drawn out PvP between 3 to 8 guilds at a time. The top three guilds from the siege are awarded Red Chips, a currency used to buy powerful Level 120 items.A different system of being social is the Couple system. Players can propose to one another, and once accepted, they are considered married. This unlocks a set of three new abilities, available at different couple levels, that increases attack and defense power, experience gained, and drop rates.
Final Verdict – GoodWhile Flyff does bring quite a few features to the table that aren’t found in the dime a dozen MMO market today, it doesn’t feel like it’s quite enough. It lacks the polish of many newer games, with some skills bugging out and some NPCs having typos in their names. I wasn’t even able to play in full 1080p, which has become a resolution standard.
The highest Flyff reaches is 1680x1050, resulting in unattractive black bars on the sides of the screen. While I definitely enjoyed Flyff in my early days of playing MMORPGs, and it certainly helped paved the way for free-to-play Korean games in the United States, it doesn’t hold up well compared to other, more recent games. I give the game 3 stars. It’s worse than many, but still better than most of the cheap MMOs flooding the market.

Fly for Fun Cheapest Classes Guide by ace#1 Strength AoE BPMale and Female in Level 71 NPC Billposter Armor. (Taken From Flyff Wiki)So here is your build:STR:XXXSTA:120INT:15DEX:15Put 120 on stamina first, then continue to strength.NEVER put anything on intelligence or dexterity.If you’re gonna make a Str AoE BP.Then those two stats are not factors.Here are the skills you need to max in order:Max Heap UpMax Beef UpMax BurstcrackMax Prevention Level 18Stonehand Lv. These are your skills to max in order from level 15-60.Heap Up (Substitute for low Stamina)HasteAccuracyResurrection Optional: Put At Level 1Beef UpCannonballStonehand level 19Information:This build focuses on getting crits and attacking fast.Cookie Cutter is a build no one can deny.(All 1v1 BP information was taken from. Thank You!)#3 AoE KnightMale and Female in Level 71 NPC Knight Armor. (Taken From Flyff Wiki)So here it is, the AoE Knight.The AoE knight is a cheap character to fund.You can make do with NPC equips and possibly a +3 green axe.Which is affordable for any level 60+ with a little merchanting.STR:XXXSTM:120DEX:15INT:15You will be going on this build just like the AoE BP build.Except this character is cheaper because the knight gets more hp per stamina pointthan the Billposter does. So it won’t require some of the more expensive equips at higher levels.At the skills I want to quote Gemedet from his (Thanks for the info!)Skill progression:At Lv15, you have just finished your job change and have received 40 skill points from it. At this point, you have 68 skill points so make Protection Lv5.Points Left: 58At Lv20, you will have 68 skill points so make Empower Weapon Lv4 (or 9 at highest).Points Left: 60 (50 with Lv9 EW)At Lv25, you will have 75 skill points so max Blazing Sword.Points Left: 35 (25 with Lv9 EW).
Protection: 5Pan Barrier: 10Sneaker: 19Empower Weapon: MaxSmite Axe: MaxAxe Mastery: MaxBlazing Sword: 0Sword Mastery: 0Charge: 0Earth Divider: 0Pain Dealer: 4 (or Max if you plan on CWing)Power Stump: MaxGuard: MaxRage: MaxAt Lv70, you will have 58 skill points so max Pain Reflection.Points Left: 28 (10 for those with max PD)At Lv75, you will have 53 skill points so max Power Swing.Points Left: 23 (5 for those with max PD)Now you can spend your points on whatever you want. The other skills won’t really help that much in normal leveling, but they can be fun in the arena and possibly useful during giant hunting.Information:The knight is usually called the “Meat Shield” of Flyff because of their high “hp per stamina” rate.This is also a very good use for AoEing as AoEing requires large portions of hp.So with the AoE build this is a meat shield that fights back.#4 HnR ElementorMale and Female in Level 71 NPC Elementor Armor. (Taken From Flyff Wiki)So for this section I’m gonna be using some quotes from.Because I just can’t explain it any better than she did in her guide.(Thanks patangua!)Your Build Choices:Typical HnR: 40-60 STA, xxx INTThis build gives a bit of HP to survive the odd hit from those pesky monsters that just refuse to slow. Of course, you can’t tank too many still, but it should provide you with a cushion while still providing excellent damage.
Hybrid: 80-100 STA, xxx INTThis build is a good all round build. With it, you don’t really have to worry too much if monsters aren’t slowing (I don’t even bother slowing the spawn until I’ve finished collecting with this build) and can even level by tanking if you fancy a change from HnR from time to time.
