Ragnarok Online

what is the better class. money, time patience not a issue, just tell me as much as you can to see weather alchemists or smiths are the best

- Josh

It depends on what you like to do.  Alchemist is probably more powerful, but they are only more powerful with a Smith supporting them.

Alchemist can turn into bio-chemist who has the most unbalanced skill for PVP.  Alchemist also gets humunculus and can make lots of other pets for a limited time like plants and marine spheres.

Smith has all those really cool battle skills that make them kick ass like adrenaline rush.  However, the disadvantage of thier battle skills when comparing these classes is they work effectively well on an Alchemist.  Also Smiths have Hammerfall which is the most annoying skill ever for non-vit based classes.  Also as Whitesmith they get one that affects a whole map for even more annoyingness.

For PVP i would say alchemist just because a vani in pvp is deadly.  Even at level 80 they can bolt people for thousands. I'm biased BTw since I have a vani and think they are actually over powered.

If you have patience and farm lots of immortal hearts ,fabrics,etc... Biochemist>Whitesmith and vit characters

Well actually your plating in a unofficial server so it's normal to knock a smith if challenged by an alchie

IF you have tried playing it on  an Official server you could try to use the so called hybrid build to see the results..

well, alchemists are harder to level in my opinion. they need a lot of money and items for their skills. smiths have more support skills, they are faster, they can make and sell weapons, and they are also good in WoE

Depends on the situation.

MVP - biochem(unless the patch where they change the MVPs vit to 30 is already in your server.)

Soloing - Depends on the situation, a master smith can easily go agi and solo while a biochem can have a homunculus.

Party play/woe, both are just good.

1 on 1, it's a different story. If both chars reach end game stats and equips, level 99, gr, etc., then a battle master smiths have an advantage against an abomb biochem. Simply because of the fact that even if the biochem can wear an orc hero to be immune to stun, the master smith can simply wear a GR valk armor and just stand in the abomb while he Cart Termi the biochem. Though I'm not too sure if it's a one sided battle if both characters have a good user as well  as well as level 99 chars and end game equips since I don't know how the homunculus might be able to affect the outcome of the battle.

I like the alchemist which earns money easily, but the smith also is not bad,hehe
