Stats for a "pure" thief

Post by Kaltek »

Hi I'm new to the server and decided to start out with a "pure" thief. I was wondering whether to go with 100 str/100 dex/25 int, 100 str/25 dex/100 int, or somewhere in between? My template will be:
100snoop
100steal
100hiding
100stealth
100magery
100resist
100wrestling

You wouldn't want all that dex.

In my opinion meditation is infinitely more valuable to a thief than resist. It's easy to stay alive long enough to escape even if two people are dumping on you.

edit: some tracking is always useful too.

Thanks for the info. I was going to go for 100 int but then I read about higher dex making stealth harder to be detected.

Dex only modifies your skill if you are less than GM. Assuming GM skills, you only need dex on someone you plan use for melee fighting. Go for th 100 int and I also think Med>Resist for this temp too.
