Seriously though, nice going, I haven't had a character near that level
PvP would be a nightmare...

... That sounds like a dangerous combo.

Which build do you prefer: 1, 2, or 3
Code: Select all
Lvl AP HP AC% AD BC% DR CHS CM ECC
2. 41 3/12 118 216 21-25 91 3 40 3.0 23%
3. 41 4/14 96 201 20-31 137 3 6 - -
4. 41 3/12 115 254 26-37 76 2
I am really trying to not focus on BC with my #4 build, but it is so hard to not equip gear that helps more with BC than AC. But I just can't seem to shutoff the voices that say "what about the BC?".
I find it really interesting that my #4 build has a higher AC @ level 41 than build 1 does @ level 126.

I do not see a build 1 listed here.
Build 3 would be my favorite (Closest to my playing style), even though my newest build is a high AD + AC player (i get that nagging voice in my head too).

Another update for my "base game" build, which just hit level 120. 3 more level ups, and he'll have passed up my first game, and he's already more powerful, at the cost of a very low defensive build.
Base stats:
HP: 150, AC: 300%, AD: 70
HP: 167
Move cost: 3 AP
Attack cost: 2 AP
AC: 432%
AD: 77-83
BC: -19%
Active conditions: Shadow Regeneration
Equipped: Valugha's shimmering hat, Silk robe of Valugha, Jewel of Fallhaven, Quickstrike dagger, Crude wooden buckler, Ring of lesser Shadow x2, Gloves of life force, Coward's boots
Skills: Increased Fortitude, Regeneration, Corpse Eater, Weapon Accuracy, Hard Hit, Cleave, Combat Speed (2), More Criticals, Evasion (3), Magic Finder (2), Quick Learner (16)
I'm considering splitting off to complete the choice-based quests after hitting Quick Learner level 20, but I might also grind out a few empty skill points to use later on, for any 2-handed weapon skills that might come up in later updates.

Just hit level 125 with my "base" build, which means its surpassed my original build, and is now the build represented in my signature. I switched to a critical hit build to kill the bigger monsters (brutes and Arulirs) faster.
Equipped: Valugha's shimmering hat, Villain's leather armour, Jewel of Fallhaven, Dagger of the Shadow priests, Crude wooden buckler, Ring of lesser Shadow x2, Troublemaker's gloves, Coward's boots

I've been thinking about making a build focusing on Blackwater gear. Use "pure blood" skill to limit "Blackwater misery". Ideas? Comments?

i had a similar idea & even went as far as bringing it up in a past meeting...
considering that Oskar favors reward with risk,
we might be able to talk him into something even more favorable...
[for the "risk taker"]
