Infiltrator help and suggestions

[LordjOX]

What spec is decent for low-RR infiltrators ?

I read something like 44 DW, 34 CS, 38 envenom, 38 stealth and rest thrust/slash on vnboards, but no idea if this is the most preferable spec for noobies

(50 composite envenom/stealth from RR2)

Also, what are typical must-have artifacts and items? Typically with useful /use and/or /use2 functionality

Back when I played it used to be pretty artifact heavy with SoM/Battler on the back etc, but now I see templates skew much more towards the dragon stuff and ML10 cloak etc?

I have ML10 bp+pants so will try incorporating those into the template, just need tips for some useful toys and template advice

Also, was thinking about a template where I'm free to swap and mix the mainhand. Back in the day the abs debuff poc weapon used to be quite good and many had a MP celerity proc mainhand/offhand. Is this even viable or does everything go toward weapons that can proc twice?

Cheers!

The spec above is fine and should work very well.

The usual artifacts ... Battler in 2hd slot ... Shades of Mist ... are a must imo...

Medal of Honor - this gives you a 350 abs and also against magic damage

The astral belt is extremely good against casters for the use ability.

The arcane strength is very good for the resist bonus.

I'd also suggest you get the small dragon shield because that gives infinite amount of 200 abs for 10 mins each time you use it and is on a 2 min timer and you dont need to equip it for 2 mins to use it. Just switch... use... then re-equip ur weapon.

With the template below I made the template with DW instead of Crit but I have the venom parts for swapping now and put in Crit instead so please just change the Venom + with Crit and its fine.

Cheers, some of those items would be very hard or impossible to get though. Especially astral belt and medal of honor I guess. Atleast I can use it as a baseline

I plan on using the ML10 kit so yeah atleast ML10 bp and the cloak, not sure about SoM vs ML10 cloak though

Cheers!

What weapon do people use in mainhand?

Thrust is alot harder to do templates for.

Slash is by far easy to make.

IMO its down to ur own preference of playstyle as I prefer to play Slash.

Saracen is a better choice for Thrust
Briton is a better choice for Slash

Although at higher RR i dont think it really matters nowadays with all the toys every player gets.

Hi,

Sorry to butt in on this thread but I am returning after a very long lay off and thinking of dusting off my Inf.

I stopped with TOA and am only ML1. I have my SOM and a few bits which were considered good in there time.

Could someone fill me in on what Ml skills i should aim for and anything else I should be looking for from the subsequent expnsions.

I see lots of templates mentioning Ml10 BP + pants, are they tough to get hold of ?

Bascially, tell me all I need to know to make me competitive after 6 years :-0 ... please

Well I am on a mission atm to create a Thrust Infil Template that I can live with, but mission has failed like 1000000 times sofar, but I never give up

ML10 stuff are somewhere between very and just plain hard to get a hold off, regarding MLs - Master Level credit can be bought from BPs and are tradeable, so getting to ML10 is not a problem anymore, and I would deffonately still for for DoTmine and Mezz poison.

Some templates are "easy" enough to get a hold off, but MHI templates are usually "hard" to assemble

may have changed but thrust infils are probably the better of the two its just a little more difficult to template them etc, but once you've done so thrust infils used to tear through most stuff!

especially cuz of the 1.5 spec points


I'd say u stick to slash at low rr tho and if you are confident enough with making a template for thrust go for it!

i was pierce on ns to rr6L6 and since going blades im stuck @ 6L6

possibly cuz of the 0 population but hey!

also if u do go slash get the same weapons as aruddry listed same ones i use too,
