ok with this release we are given new fighting styles.
1: shield and sword
2: 2h weapon
3: duel

So if you make a new character which way will you choose?

I started a new one named Draco and he will follow the way of the 2h weapon chose. Which means my AC and ad will be high with the weapon and would focus on bringing up the BC. Also I'm.considering not putting sp on cs for no matter what I will only get 2 attacks. But then again getting CB for the xul'viir I may need it. So CB for me is up in the air. I make this topic as a way for use to discuss the different fighting style builds.

Because the current game mechanics are based on a fixed amount of AP and base damage giving fast and light weapons an unreal DPS (damage per second) score, weapon and shield are the strongest by far. But because I am loving how the evil side is developing (RP wise), my next character will be 2h and go for all the evil, powerful (quest)items and will use heavy armor, some type of Dark Knight / evil version of a Paladin.

Draco is going to be semi netural I'm going 2h weapon but light armor with some heavy. And I think sword and shield style will b well suited for a defense build while duel is for offensive in my mind.

Duel Wield, Dagger Pro, Light Armor Pro

Lots of damage with low Ap cost, and tons of BC bonus from the Armor Pro.

((I recommend getting a Pro in armor before any of the others, the boost to BC can be the difference between life and death))

What do you mean by pro pyrizzle? I didn't see anything like that in the skill list.

Not sure whether I want to dual wield or go sword and board. Honestly wearing a shield seems to pay off more in my opinion... Someone prove me wrong before I decide to level these skills up D:

If your build needs more BC be sure to take a Skill in the Armor Pro, it really helps to boost your BC. =)
Happy hunting Nether! Good to see you around again!

A lot of people have been switching to 2 handed weapons.

I think my next build will use them, but right now i am loving my Rogue build.
