How to Spec a Hero?

[censi]

Hi chaps, out of complete bordem I am building a Hero...

Was gonna go 46 blades 46 shield and 40 parry.....

Does this sux??

My thoughts were I dont wanna be semi specced in 2 weapons... If I was gonna specc in Shield and blades there is not too much point in spending points on the other Weaps like LW or CS..

The other thing I considered was just going 50 LW and 50 parry (rest on shields)

 

[Eleasias]

42 shield, 50 CS, ~35 blades, rest parry

 

[Matinex]

why 35 blades? lvl 39 blade style is uber, use it all the time, pve or rvr.

 

[censi]

Matinex, can I ask what your specc is... if you dont wanna post it pls pm it to me in game/

 

[Matinex]

39 Blades, 42 shield, 20 parry, 43 CS, With RR and items its
48 Blades, 49 shield, 23 parry, 55 CS, depending on what items i use.

 

[Matinex]

Btw LW is not so good in rvr since majority of your enemies are using chain armor (clerics/minstrels/almost all middies), go for CS.

Spec 1handed blunt/shield for berserkers/armsmen/pallys.

 

[old.Arya]

6 Blades ( Taunting blade is enough for RvR in my opinion, yes damage may be a bit low,.. anyways )
42 shield ( for slam)
37 Parry
50 CS

That blade attack looks very good Matinex yes:
39 Skill, Spectrum Blade: Medium fatigue cost, use after successful Fire Blade, medium bonus damage, heavy attack speed reduction, small bonus to hit, medium bonus to defense

Just wonder one thing, Going for about the same specc as Mat there, just LW instead of CS (maybe change to CS if respec comes this millenium). But what do you really use in RvR then? I never make up my mind what I shall use. LW hammer (crush) seems to do very nice dam at least, but the slam attack with shield is also very nice.

I though of this way: You see enemie run to him and do slam attack with shield, switch to CS/LW and finish him with that. IS that the best way?

 

[Matinex]

Yes

 

[Matinex]

At least thats what i do most of the time. you might want to hit with a "regular" hit one time first (no style) to remove the bt, then slam..

 

[Kobold]

okidoky

whtas bt?

 

[Matinex]

bladeturn.

 

[Kobold]

gah, ofcourse lol

/me just wake up from bed

 

[dazam]

[inuyasha]

not to much blade ,)

Think this will be the best spec, or about

Shield: This IS 42, for smash a long duration stun attack with no startup position.
CS/LW: To 50, this is whats doing you damage in RvR. Heard CS is better, but LW have better attacks for soloing and hunting, and looks alot better. CS DO more damage to most people in rvr, and is considered the best.
Blade: not much over 30 tops. No need for it in rvr
Parry: for the rest of the points.
