[Raven]

thats pretty nice, the items are nice and easy to get too, though i really think you should swap the harpy cloak for SoM (though it can be hard to get the arti and 3/3 scroll)

 

[eggy]

It's ok, but can I ask...why?

 

[eggy]

When you get malice out, you're gonna insta-lose a lot of hp, as it has both 15 con and 40 hits on it...kinda bad for a melee-scout imo.

Shades cloak is a must-have really, harpy cloak is crud.

You might want to regiggle some SC - having 3 stealth on your S+S means you cant stealth properly with bow out, and ofc leeching the zerg is the only way to get rps

 

[Raven]

maybe swap malice axe for traiters dagger, the proc will be great, as a scout your damage output is sucky in melee anyway so the lifetap proc/cloud thingy would really help +ofc shade mode for snipping

 

[Jaem-]

Why? Cause I want to hear other peoples opinions on it so far, as I'm not up on all the latest ToA items etc.

Well if I were stealthed I'd have shield out to block inc CD if someone PA or someone TS'ing and shooting me...

SoM I doubt I'll get tho, don't have the time, cash to spend on such a luxary ;<

Tho I admit I have to sort out the con bit out, thanks for pointing it out.

Hmm didn't check that one out, thanks

I mean why are you focussing on the one thing your class falls down in? Why not concentrate on boosting the one good thing the class has going for it.

I don't know why people think it's so hard to get som, I see it up and uncamped almost every day at one time or another.

 

[Jaem-]

Perhaps easy for some, but hard for alot also...

I can't get a group to go do it, its always down, and even if I did camp it I'm back to square one with no group, unless your offering to help with people, I don't see how I can camp something for xx amount of hrs when I don't have the time RL.

I don't mean to sound bitchy, but I've tried to get it for awhile on pry with no luck, doubt I'll get far on a server I know less people. :/

I'm focusing on melee as like you said its weaker, so I boost it ;P

 

[Bishibosh]

well here's my balanced template, which lacks a little in resists in order to balance out the strength/slash side of things and the bow

problems include the loss of health when changing to bow and the critically low resists in some cases, but overall Im happy with it.

Still subject to change when i figure out exactly how much quick i can afford to lose ;}

[Bishibosh]

in fact the health loss caused by switching between melee and bow is immense in this template, therefore I re-jiggled the stats and went for a crafted shield instead, with no health related bonuses.

GratTz on making a scout!!1

I dunno why no1 has the Winged Helmet in his template.

Okay... its util is "only" 50... (+10AF).... but heck, if theres 1 thing i hate about Scouts, then it is i have no speed when needed.....
That helmet gives us the speed-shout other archers have... gets u to the spots where the action is.
The 2nd ability which reduces style-damage is pretty nice too btw.

I NEVER ever would give up on that.

I used to have it in it, but with all the fun that comes with leveling sharkskin gloves, ring of dances and the hillarious 10%-per-hour oglidarsh... i thought... na.

 

[Borand]

Well it's an ok template I guess if you are really determined to play a melee scout..though personally I think it's a bad idea. Even if you were to go 50 slash you would still lose in most cases when you get jumped by an assasin unless you have Purge/IP up. Block rate also goes down drastically against dual wielders which most of the SBs/NS's you meet will be, and the str/con debuff poison they use on you is going to hurt even more so since you're slash. Won't preach to you anymore though since you probably have already played and enjoyed your melee-orientated spec

Regarding the template itself, just a few things to say. You have increased your hp cap by 120 but only have added 232..you should try and get this up to 320 espescially since you're planning on melee'ing your opponents mainly. SoM would help loads espescially the defensive proc on it, though if you can't get that then Traitor's is a good alternative as it also provides you with shade form which is great for when you do want to use your bow in sniping situations. You also have con and hp on your weapon which is a prob as eggy already said since you lose a bit of your hp when you switch to your bow. On your shield you only got 3 gems and a 5.5 overcharge, I'm no expert on sc'ing but I think that increases the chance for the item to blow up quite considerably. If you haven't already done so then get capped buffs and see how much extra qui you need to get to the 250 hardcap - you may not need to come close to +72 qui (I didn't do this and ended up with 267 qui wasting valuable imbue points) . Also if you're definitely going to use Malice then you may as well get Mariasha's Sharkskin Gloves as well and xp them together for the extra archery bonuses (Sharks are classed as animal mobs so Malice would gain exp from them).

Making a melee scout is a huge mistake.

A scout need to disable enemies to get into good firing positions, not to
take them down in straight melee. Slam, zephyr, snare, procs, shield trip
and speed is your friend, not 1200 ws on a s&s class wearing studded.

Btw that ws will probaly drop below 1000 after a debuff.

u NEED SoM
u should think about how 2 put sharkskin gloves in ur template
go slash if u want kill melee
uve 2 shit on shield
ull get ganked muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, belive me, i get rr1-4 easy down in melee. rr5 sometimes (im still proud to beated Urizen in a melee fight)
rr6-rr11+ imposible.

and tbh u should be rr5+ 2 skill in melee.

 

[Matmardigan]

rr6-11+ sb imposible even. First of all varg & co will get happy, this lousy sb's getin a ejaculation if they beat u just with pa.

Thanks for the info, tho I don't mean melee scout as I ONLY melee mobs and players down, more to fall back upon when interupts are present, its one thing I've noticed scouts suck on, getting interupted so no slam-bow, so far I'm pleased with it.

I have noticed the low ws, around 1310 I think atm, tho dmg is nice on the other hand, still wondering if I should go thrust as on a calc it says 1427ws for thrust.

Think I'll have to get SoM cloak for sure tho <cwys>

Been messing around with another temp with it in, so far I've managed to get the GoV, SoM and the Winged Helm in and any 1hd sword.

Didn't know that scout there was you Borand, doing ok on albie?
