General Overview
Introduction
Felkin focuses on raw power basically. So out of Fuwa, Dagos, and Felkin, Felkin users have more attack power than the rest. Most of Felkin's affinity skills focus on short duration buffs that deal with your attack, defense, evasion, etc along with some other nice skills. If you can max all these skills out and use them correctly on the battlefield, you can be a unstoppable monster depending on your skill build also.
Felkin are strong against Dagos users and weak against Fuwa users so depending on the server, this can be good or bad.
Felkin PvP Build - Final
Introduction
You should only use this build after you have maxed your Faction affinity skills. This build is pretty strict on the skills and tomes and you really can't do much modifications. It is a build you'd want to use at 150 really.
What does this build focus on?
1. Wide variety of skills to use
2. Power
3. Critstrike rate
Why is Seductive Brush not maxed?
Because you're not going to see a HUGE difference in damage. Tell me, what is your damage with a extra 8% from seductive brush added on? Is it a extra 50k damage? How about 30k? 10k? Thats what I thought. Nothing huge, only idiots think its huge.
Lunar Wind?????
This is to make your frozen memories silence effect stronger. If you love Mountain Song, get rid of Daydream and Lunar Wind and put it towards Unyielding faith. Unyielding Faith will be 2/3 so take out 1 point from vigilance to make it 3/3. If you want brink of insanity, look for another build or rewrite the tome yourself.
Conclusion
Not going to say much else like in the other builds. You should know what Esper skills you need and so on. Don't blame the build if you can't PvP, only blame yourself for lacking the knowledge and skill on how you should fight your opponent.

Felkin Mystery Build
Introduction
Like the name says, its a mystery build. I'm not going to tell you how to use it nor give any other details. Thats why its called a mystery. Will it prove to be anything great in PvE and PvP? That is a mystery.
*This is another one of those builds that require you to jaki first then use it. Otherwise, you cannot get your Faction Affinity Skills.

Felkin Faction Skill Analysis
Which skills should I max first?
1. Positive Reinforcement II
2. Mountain Song II
3. Meditation II
4. Determination II
5. Acid Rain II
Determination II
When maxed, it will add 50% to resistances and cooldown will drop to 3 minutes. The duration will stay at 30 seconds. The real question is if the accuracy added is skill accuracy or regular accuracy. I'm going to assume its regular accuracy for now.
Its a good skill, but not needed immediately. Really, it depends on your gear. All this skill does is reinforce those resistances even more so the chances of you getting hit with some kind of status effect is low.
Mountain Song II
When maxed, it will give 30% bonus damage along with the target losing 20% max health. It will give you a 50% chance to fasten the target for 4 seconds. Every 3 ranks of Mountain Song will increase the Fastening rate chance by 10% and increase the duration by 1 second.
A great skill to have. It should be your first thing to max, but I decided that PRII is something you want to max first.
Meditation II
This when maxed will give you 5 skill accuracy. If you're not PvPing at all, this is one of the last skills you should max.
Acid Rain II
This when maxed will add 20% attack, reduce the target's defense by 600 and I am assuming skill accuracy by 10. The duration of 8 seconds stays the same.
Its good skill to use on anything, but only when you are playing actively. If you see differently, then max this first thing.
Positive Reinforcement II
This when maxed will give you a duration of 15 seconds to perform a critstrike on the target and give you 28 seconds duration of paralyze immunity. The cooldown is also 3 minutes.
Unless there is some raja or Balo's ancient soul on, you will always critstrike your opponent with this. So it can be saved for your strongest foe in war. In PvE, it has its uses. Skill is good in both PvE and PvP and the cooldown really needs to be decreased asap so max it first.
Felkin Lupin Hybrid Build
Introduction
This is a hybrid build that tries to combine the best of PvP and PvE skills so you are good in both areas.
When should this build be used?
This build can only be used when you have maxed your Felkin Faction affinity skills. This is because you will notice that skills like Mountain Song and Acid Rain isn't in this build. Majority do not know, but once your faction affinity skill is at 9, when you use a jaki, you can still use the skill. If its not maxed, it will be darkened out until you get the initial skill at 9.
So essentially, this build can only be used when you have maxed your faction felkin skills and you have to use a Jaki.
What does this build focus on?
1. Critstrike - This build has all those passive skills maxed
Why Shadow of Hope? And why is it not maxed? And why does the build not have the tome?
1. In case you want to AoE grind or PvP AoE. A fully buffed Felkin Lupin with Positive Reinforcement 2 dropping down on your opponents in fort to clear them when defending is always amusing. Remember, not everyone is l33t. On the contrary, most are not like people on ZX.
2. Its not maxed because the damage difference between 1 <=> 4 is so small, you won't even notice.
3. Its not in the tome because there were other things that were important. If you want it in your tome, re-arrange the tome to your liking so it has Askandi Breeze 3/3.
Why don't you have Wishful Thinking Tome?!
Not a big deal to me. If its a big deal to you, get it. Explain my reasoning? I'm not a Pot ****** who likes to use Ancient Potter like no other like all the other Lupins. If I get the extreme blessing, that is just more HP I have to pot back. If you want to impress your friends or just live longer in general, get it.
Why didn't you get the Vigilance tome?
Not a big difference in the amount you gain back. What, 20 extra points is it? Or is that total? Well, I don't feel like doing the math at the moment, but if you really must have it, get it. Felkin Lupins have very high resistances due to Determination II. In this build, its pretty hard to reallocate points so good luck.
If this is a Hybrid build, why isn't Lovesickness maxed?
Ran out of points. Full of Love vs Lovesickness, you decide.
No Love's Glance?!?!?
Useful skill, but I don't see myself using it. This is due to my playstyle. If you cannot live without Love's Glance, Give Jeden Shadow 3/9 and don't get Cold Disposition at all. Else you can get rid of Fantasy and add what you can to Cold Disposition. There you go.
Without Regret?
Depends on your playstyle.
Tome Modifications
If you don't care about the extra 2% critstrike rate from Wordly Affairs, get rid of that whole line and add those points elsewhere. I don't see why you would, but whatever. You don't get much leeway in this build like the others.
Charms Needed
Inexpressable Sorrow
Lost Love (For grinding)
Numbness
Misleading Illusion
Sounds of Nature
Prudence
Dreamland
Fruition
Emotional Severance (No idea why you would want it, but it is EoA charm so have fun with the bullions and coins)
Skills on Esper
Lovesickness (Not that important)
Scent of Darkness (Not really important)
Seductive Brush (Not as important)
Forgotten Dream (Important)
Frozen Memories (Important!)
Thicken Blood (Important!)
Blessing of Spring (Important PvP skill only)
Love's Glance (For Love's Glance lovers)
Cold Disposition (For CD lovers)
Up to you what skills you want on your esper, but these are the ones you want.
Best Esper?
Golden Gourd. Try to get the skill at lvl 3. Its good because of the skill itself. I don't think I have to explain myself.
Pet Type
Flowen with heal ability.
Conclusion
Can't tell you how to PvP so if you fail, don't blame the build. Blame yourself for not knowing how to PvP. How you distribute these points as you are leveling is up to you, not me. I don't provide a guide on how you should spend your points, I just post the final build at 150. Lastly, this build is only good at 150, though I'm sure you can jaki when you are 140+ and have your faction felkin affinity skills maxed.

Lupin Felkin PvP Build
Introduction
This build will focus on PvP elements only. This build also focuses on your Faction Felkin Affinity skills so you can max them out. Read the section called "Skill Picture Fixes."
Why Shadow of Hope? And why is it not maxed? And why does the build not have the tome?
1. In case you want to AoE grind or PvP AoE. A fully buffed Felkin Lupin with Positive Reinforcement 2 dropping down on your opponents in fort to clear them when defending is always amusing. Remember, not everyone is l33t. On the contrary, most are not like people on ZX.
2. Its not maxed because the damage difference between 1 <=> 4 is so small, you won't even notice.
3. Its not in the tome because there were other things that were important. If you want it in your tome, re-arrange the tome to your liking so it has Askandi Breeze 3/3.
Why Ripple and not max out the whole line leading up to Brink of Insanity?
I figured giving Unyielding Faith was good enough. Anyways, Ripple is needed for the extra hits you can take with that. Brink of Insanity is nice, but the only skill you have that is effected by that is Mountain Song so unless you plan on making Mountain Song your primary skill, there is no need for it. If the tome affected affinity skills, different story. To further strengthen my case on why you don't need it, with Brink of Insanity at 3/3, the stun duration from mountain song would last 7.36 seconds instead of 4.4 seconds (9/9). For the heavy pvper, that means everything, but to me, that little time increase isn't worth it.
You will have to modify the tome if you want Brink of Insanity. Remember people, not everyone has super high stun resistance so get that out of your head.
Why don't you have Wishful Thinking Tome?!
Not a big deal to me. If its a big deal to you, get it. Explain my reasoning? I'm not a Pot ****** who likes to use Ancient Potter like no other like all the other Lupins. If I get the extreme blessing, that is just more HP I have to pot back. If you want to impress your friends or just live longer in general, get it.
Why didn't you max Pessimism tome?
Ran out of points. Don't see myself using Mountain Song a lot either.
Why didn't you get the Vigilance tome?
Not a big difference in the amount you gain back. What, 20 extra points is it? Or is that total? Well, I don't feel like doing the math at the moment, but if you really must have it, get it. Felkin Lupins have very high resistances due to Determination II.
No Love's Glance?!?!?
Useful skill, but I don't see myself using it. This is due to my playstyle. You'll have to do some modifications to squeeze this one in if you want it.
Skill Picture Fixes
1. Scent of Darkness should be 1/9
2. Seductive Brush should be 9/9
3. Cold Disposition should be 5/6
Tome Modifications
If you don't care about the extra 2% critstrike rate from Wordly Affairs, get rid of that whole line and add those points elsewhere. I don't see why you would, but whatever. You don't get much leeway in this build like the others.
Charms Needed
Inexpressable Sorrow
Lost Love (For grinding)
Numbness
Misleading Illusion
Unyielding Faith (If you plan on using mountain song a lot)
Brink of Insanity (EoA charm) (Only if you redo the tome and you must have BoI)
Sounds of Nature
Prudence (Not really needed, but I keep it here anyways)
Dreamland
Fruition
Skills on Esper
Lovesickness (Not that important)
Scent of Darkness (Not really important)
Seductive Brush (Not as important)
Forgotten Dream (Important)
Frozen Memories (Important!)
Thicken Blood (Important!)
Mountain Song (Important only for MS users)
Brink of Insanity (Only if you must have the tome and you have the bullions and coins to get it)
Up to you what skills you want on your esper, but these are the ones you want.
Best Esper?
Golden Gourd. Try to get the skill at lvl 3. Its good because of the skill itself. I don't think I have to explain myself. 135 esper would be sinister orb.
Pet Type
Flowen with heal ability.
Conclusion
Can't tell you how to PvP so if you fail, don't blame the build. Blame yourself for not knowing how to PvP. How you distribute these points as you are leveling is up to you, not me. I don't provide a guide on how you should spend your points, I just post the final build at 150.
