Hero skill point discussion

[Bedroc the Hero]

Im still a bit undecided about my skillpoints. Im a lvl 45 hero and have these stats ( without mods ):

33 blunt
42 shield
23 parry
30 CS ( I think, might be a lil less )

Respec is FAAR into the future. My main concern is to be a nice group hero for PvE but itll be very nice to do some dmg in rvr as well.

Plan for when respec hits us and Im tired of Cursed Forrest and Darkness Falls and have all the uber items to drop blunt and put all those points in CS for some RvR damage.

But till then Ill do a lot of PvE. My question is

Is it really useful to raise shield above 42? do you gain much protection to take it to say 48?

How bout parry? is 33 nice to aim for? or is it worthwhile to go higher?

I dont think ill spec more in CS unless shield/parry are fine as they are.

What are your thoughts bearing my priorities in mind?

Hmm, go for this,

39 Blunt,
26 Parry,
43 CS,
42 Shield.

Thats what i have, except that i but the points in blades instead of blunt.

You will get 3 points leftover

Elo Bedroc my final spec on xelda is as follows

44 CS
39 blades
42 shield
24 parry
may be wrong but this is same as wuren also.

on reroll i gonna go 50 spear take it off the blades (10) and up parry to urm 38, but i'll have time to check how my current setup works in rvr till then.
u are on the right track so enjoy. fins fins and more fins

 

[Eleasias]

Leave shield at 42, up blunt to 39 and rest to CS (MUST be 40+), if you have any leftovers put them into parry, that's the best way (everyone who didnt spec LW / CS with their hero is regretting it [maybe not publicly but I'm sure they would wanna do some damage aswell]) :O. That's what Mati said, just in other words ^^

Oh and btw

Celtic Spear > everything

 

[Novamir]

Do what matinex said, except, leave blunt at 35 or so, so that you can get the level 44 spear style which really rocks

 

[Bedroc the Hero]

Thank you very much!

IM glad that you answered me. Glad that Im on the right track! 3 very respectable heros with similar sugestions. Thanks again!

Has anyone tried full shield / full parry / rest in blunt or blade?

could be a mean defence machine ( suck at rvr I know but very good for CF and darkness falls? )

 

[Novamir]

Dont go pure defence =/

i have exactly the same in 1h/shield as a defensie hero. the difference is my parry is at 35, and theirs is at 45-50.

 

[Tyka]

.. and then he makes a LW hero

but anyway when did ppl came up wiht Teh spec?

6 blade, 39 parry, 42 shield 50 CS/LW???

 

[Event]

The parry bug is supposedly sorted in 1.62 so I am tempted to take my luri pierce shieldo to 50 shield 50 parry rest pierce to test its effectiveness - I am assuming it will roxxor in pve but hell knows what it will be like in rvr but u never know...

 

[Ravenbourne]

Well for some reason i parry far more than i block and i have 42 + 13 shield and 39 (i think) + 10 parry, not really sure whats going on there i do know it used to annoy me when i was s/s.

 

[old.Mitsu]

Could be because parry is checked before block? (Not sure)
