My new character

Post by Thelema »

Hello! I am new to this server. I have planned to do a character with the following skills:

Anatomy GM
Alchemy GM
Fencing GM
Tactics GM
Healing GM
Poisoning GM
Hiding GM

I would really appreciate constructive help with my character. =)
What stats should I have? What skills should I change?
It is supposed to be a poisoner.

Hello and welcome to the shard. You have found one of the best shard out there..

Just a few suggestions. I would make a mule and put poisioning and alchemy or what ever else you might want. I would also add Magery for recalls/heals and such. I personnally would not have a char without a little magery unless you plan on never leaving town.

Here is what I have, pretty cookie cutter but works well for me.

Anatomy GM (bonus to healing and damage)
Magery GM (recalls/heals/cures/)
Fencing GM (kriss/shield or warfork/shield or short spear or spear)
Tactics GM (Damage bonus)
Healing GM (long timer but you can rez and cure at higher levels)
Resist GM (a must if you plan on leaving town)(if your never going to leave town pick something else)
Hiding GM (I really like gm hiding but you can switch for Parry if you like)

I go 100 str/90 dex/ 35 mage. 35 magery for 2 gheals and I just drink a pot for more dex...

Welcome hope this helps

Put Alchemy on a mule, there is no alchemy bonus here.

Drop Alchemy for Resist. Optional (but I would do it), drop Hiding for Magery.

Swords is generally preferred over fencing on most templates.

Ok, but how do I provide the poisons for my character? Should I make a new char with alchemy?
And should I get completely rid of hiding to get magery gm?

Sounds to me more like the guy is wanting to make a poison dexxer. Telling him to go with standard hally/mage may not be the way he wanted to go.

I believe fencing is the only way to go for poisoning on the field, and I think he should just look into dropping alchemy/hiding for magery/resist.

Anatomy GM
Resist GM
Fencing GM
Tactics GM
Healing GM
Poisoning GM
Magery GM


I actually applaud the guy for wanting to be something different.

Almost makes me want to make a Graveyard Warrior:


Archery
Macefighting
Tactics
Anatomy
Healing
Resist
Magery (to debuff and disrupt)

100 Dex/Str
25 Int

Run in with quarter staff... whack, whack, disarm, arm heavy, thwok

Ty cutpurse, that is exactly what I wanted.

Now that I try to run 2 accounts at the same time, it gives me the message: "There is some problem communicating with origin..." When trying to create the 2nd account. Did I do something wrong?

all the "warriors" are virtually the same though. Double left click, stick as close as possible.

As opposed to mages?


Hit F1.
Hit F2.
Hit F3.
Hit F2.
Repeat as needed.

The game has been around over 12 years. The combat isn't a new concept by any means. Some people enjoy playing warriors.

How about drop poison and alchemy and buy my poisoned weapons at my vendor just south of Trinsic Main gate.
