caster temp, 100dex/100int, superb toa bonuses.

[staj]

i really found no 'easy' way to fix a caster template cata-rdy wo dumping the belt cause of its 0uv (got only 14%matter on fatty and will live with that me finks 8< )​

farmed stuffs till i got something that properly fitted in for slashas bainshee temp ;p​

Name: rog​

Level: 51 Quality: 100​

AF: Bonus:​

Effect 1: 10 Slash Resist​

Effect 2: 10 Dexterity​

Effect 3: 10 Power Percentage Bonus​

Effect 4: 3 All Magic Skill Bonus​

Effect 5: 7 Intelligence Cap Increase​

​

i know its not spectacular but did the trick for me, problem is hib 'market' isnt too extensive so u prolly have to farm stuff and 'gamble' with the wonderful rog system ;d (unless u can get ur hands in some ultrarare item like talos cloth sleeves etc)​

nice ring, talos sleeves have to low ui

 

[staj]

I dont really understand the thing with resist pierce tbh.. lets say you got 10% on your items... Then somebody use CS.. Are you saying CS will not stack then? and you will still have 10%?

you'r capped at 10%, no matter what.

Stat on my template atm

All discussion aside, having 15% or 25% matter, or having 5% pierce or 10% pierce is not gonna win the fight, its just numbers. Winning the fight is about how you play and how your enemy react. A noob like me will need to try to max all my stuff as much as possible and believe I can do well with it, while someone like Staj would do well in most gear. So the months of planning, farming and tweaking is really just a waste of time, get a desent template going and you're gtg

i think its the other way around..

the items is what makes you good... xD

I mean sheph has 6 wormskin wraps, he is the best warden.. so I draw that conclusion.

Very nice template

completely agree tbh. i always play my chars before they're finished, or even lvl 50..yeah i die more than someone with a spot on template, but i find as long as i get my stats as high as poss, and for casters concentrate on cast spd, cast spd, and more fricken cast spd, i do very well and it forces me to learn the tricks of the char...after all avoiding being hit in the first place is much better than another 10% resist or so, and ofc once template finally sorted il have best of both worlds. but some occasions occur no matter how rare..where everything in a template can make a big difference..whether it be that you take 10 less dmg from a lifetapping sorc enabling you to walk away (VERY slowly on 1 HP) or having jacinas give you a free cast on a penultimate DD to finish someone off before you go OOP.

at the end of the day, its best to play your char in a load of RoGs getting a feel for your play style..then make a custom template JUST for you.

 

[liloe]

I'm the other 5% spell piercing so no need to put that in =)) and I always see someone with CS/crown, too, so np there =)

 

[vintervargen]

puh, just get max dmg/pierce/acuity, scrap the dex. saves you lotsa power ~~

 

[eSo]

thank you for the tips and critisism.
i still want to point out that imo templates are quite personal. it's all about what you like and how do you play. i prefer casting speed over damage. i built the template on that. but nevertheless, gonna use that template until i find a better one

 

[Mithryn]

Very nice template

Mithryn, back in business on hib yet?

Hehe, nah .. you all know GOA closed my accounts while I was in Australia for no perticular reason, so I dont see me coming back anytime soon, it kinda pissed me off bigtime. I did however close the very last account, and instead open up the main account with bard/eld/menta on, so atleast I can come on now and then and maintain our houses and stuff, and chat some. But for now the sight of my undead warlock interest me more than the ever so boring celts

But who knows, I dont think WOW will keep my attention for as long as Daoc did (or maybe still do), and since there is no other alternative around, I might come back with some Vampiir fun in Catacombs.

 

[LordjOX]

Catacombs looks well fun at the moment though, no new ToA, just new stuff that helps new player and gives content to existing ones, of course new challenges with the new classes.

Atleast people can't complain that WoW gfx models are superior to catacomb ones!

 

[Lexxus]

OK this is a template for a bainshee but the skill bonuses can easily be changed

[Knolan]

i would say tartaros aint a MCL charge but rather a RP charge since it gives back 50% power and its usable in combat.

not really on topic but thought i'd just mention it.

good point

 

[Knolan]

good point

well some people say it aint that big a difference, but whether you can use it in combat or not is a big difference for me

VoS is wrong about a lot of things, still looking for a better ToA site though,
any1 have any suggestions?
