Highlander thrust mincer

[Northstarr]

will it be gimped or not?
i was thinking to put 10 into qui dex and cha, that would make 70str 70con 60dex 60qui 60cha.
if i made a brit mincer id boost cha str and con, so that would leave me with the same final stats
am i right or is a brit still a better choice even if the stats are the same?

i belive thrust is pure dex bases(not sure tho ) so saraccen would be a good choice for that

highlander is good for slash, cause slash is Str

 

[old.Sepiritz]

Thrust is dex and str equal parts.. Slash is all str.
So for thrust, count which race would give the most total str+dex/2 total..

 

[katt!]

not gimped.

thrust = str/dex, the sum of str+dex is the same between saracen and highlander but you will have more hp as highlander.

 

[old.Kantz]

Thrust highlander is not a gimp.

For thrust I would recommend: + 10 dex/con/cha
And for slash: + 10 str/con/cha

Getting hits is vital since many nukes/hits/shoots you while your mezzing.

If you want to be a bit special and interesting, do this:
+ 10 str/dex/con
Auto train instruments to lv.36 and go 44i, 50t, 1s
You'll be a nasty mele-machine with speedsong and dragonfang

(Admitted: I’m to lazy to try myself, but could be fun to try )

remember highlanders wear skirts ... i sort of regret not making mine a briton

 

[old.LandShark]

highlander thrust = best possible group minstrel
highlander slash = best soloer in these days of see hidden and being jumped by shadowblades every )!£*(%ing time you turn around FFS STUPID 8-PT UNCOUNTERABLE RA ARGH
*ahem*

Still.
As has been said, your dex+str average will be the same with a highlander as a saracen. Saracen theoretically evades/blocks more, but since you almost certainly won't have 50thrust for the uber post-evade style, and in any case only get evade2, go for highlander... the extra hp is worth it.
