A Thane template - Please advice me

[PaqMan]

After I recieved information that the nice items I included in my, now rejected, template was near impossible to get I tried to redo the template.

I just threw in as lot as I could, havent used THAT much ToA items. I don't know if the combination of gems per piece is 'optimal' or not.

I have issues with the template and I would like some advice on how to improve it.

- Parry and shield is to low
- No pie (Im a thane, I wanna zap stuff)
- A wee bit to low qui..
- Pretty unbalanced resists with 1 over 30 and some little low..
- No +Stormcalling in template (Don't know if its needed though)

I included the chestpiece(Guard of Valor) for looks, Sun belt for the energy debuf I think it was(And the nice looking weapons).

And the fact that I need to make 1 hammer that's 'equal' to sun belt's hammer stats if I happen to die during night..

If anyone have any suggestions or ideas, or see anything I missed, please tell me

personally i'd go for pie over quickness, it will make a noticable difference to both damage ourput and powerpool.

Thanks. I have thought about it..

However, I'm a troll.. With my 35 qui I hit pretty hard but I hit like once a week. I had a discussion earlier about pbt on for example wardens.. I would like to hit fast enough to atleast get in a smack between the ptb pulse..

I don't know the calculations of how fast I 'need' to hit to get down to below 'pbt speed', else everything with pbt will have(and had once) a devastating effect on my damage output.

Perhaps I should come up with a balance between qui/pie...

it's all a tradeoff really, as a troll you really should aim to be offensive in every way as your defences will be lower with the lower dex. Depends really on how much you want to cast. I spend a lot of time in RvR standing back and casting so i'm always looking to max out pie, although I am also a dwarf which means I have reasonably good defences, although i hit like a girl with a wet fish at the best of times.

I have found myself be the hitting type.. mostly using the dd zap's and seldom use the actual 'casted' spells..

Think I make myself 2 parts of the items that I put qui in and put on pie on the other.. Can test it then, only need to farm cash for it first
