Good skald RS´s

[n00b 79]

Any suggestions on good RA´s for a skald ?

Standard tank ones:
First Aid 2
Ignore Pain
Purge
note: I have none of these, therefore I am a gimp.

If you're a 2h user I'd recommend the following:
Augmented Strength 3
Mastery of Arms 2+

Even if you're not 2h take the following:
Augmented Dexterity 2
Mastery of Pain 2+
Master of Parrying (if you do a lot of PvE cos I really don't parry that much in RvR with the group bug thing)
MYSTIC CRYSTAL LORE - TAKE IT!!!
Augmented Acuity 1+ (more charisma the better)
Mastery of the Arcane if you want to have some uber overly powerful chants, but you'd need to spend a LOT of RA points for it.
Tireless 1
Toughness/Augmented Con - you *need* those extra hit points.

I had mastery of arms on my skald but respecd since it doesnt seem to work,I would not recommend that ra ;o

for the rest of the ra's I would start with
aug acuity2+serenity
avoidance of magic 2
mystic crystal lore
IP and purge is nice but cost alot ra pts do you plan on rvr alot, if u do I would definetly go for those.
aug con 1 and toughness 1 for more hp.

Purge
FA2
IP
MCL
Toughness
Avoidance of Magic
Longwind (!)



Mastery of Arms = useless
Tireless = useless (Skald is a groupchar ... get a shamy!)
Aug. Acuity = doesn't do much
Mastery of the Arcane = useless

Mastery of pain is a good thing imo, get it as high as you can get it, otherwise stick to Hellskors list

 

[Kerram Darktyde]

mastery of arcane does NOTHING it is a bug that it is on our list as we do not have any buffs... only chants/songs so the RA does nothing

I know coz I have it on my skald

Longwind with the first point you get at 20
Purge
FA2
IP
AoM 3
Aug dex 2
MoPain 2
Toughness
Aug acuity
Empty the Mind

that's at ~RR7

 

[mavericky]

My shammy only have the lowest lvl res, but i have never noticed getting more that 55rp's for ressing. sometimes less, but never more. Maybe Granite gets more due to being a higher RR himself, not sure

Follow Enki's list but stop AOM at 2 then take Empty the Mind.

I currently have the following ra's:

Aug Dex 2
Mast of Pain 2
Aug Con 1
Toughness 1
Avoidance of magic 2
First Aid 2
Ignore Pain
Purge
MCL (tho I wouldn't recommend this cuz of the change of DD's pow consumption)
Long Wind 1
Aug Acuity 2

Guess this is it atm...
