Troll a bad thing?

[wolvon fury]

Well, i was reading the VN-Broad today, (god forbid hehe)

Reading Viking broads, and it seems Trolls are the worst race for Berserkers,

Am not sure what to do,

Should i re-make Wolvon to a norse berserker? as they seem to be best choice,

Wolvons Starting stats were:

Str-100
Con-80
Dex-50
Qui-35

From reading the lower the Quiness the harder you will hit, and get them massive crits.

Also, Troll are huge targets, and with low Qui and Dex, i won't evade and parry very well.

Wolvons only level 12 atm, Should i re-roll him or carry on,

STR will raise every level for a zerker, DEX every 2 and CONS every 3. QUI will never, ever raise. QUI is the only stat that determines how much you evade. With 35 QUI you just won't evade very much.

The only time trolls seem the best choice for a zerker is in the first 10 levels or so. But at later levels that 35 QUI with Evade III is bad news, and your STR will probably be capped anyway. Better to lose some of that offensive ability for better defense. Norse is probably the best choice overall, although high cons of Dwarves is always nice

Evades 50/50 dex quick as answered by the designers on the herald, but ye troll zerkers arnt the best choice at all.

But play the char you like the look rather then something thats just the best because the stats say so

 

[old.Atrox]

and your STR will probably be capped anyway

Higher base str means higher cap str..

anyway I agree Trolls are not that great race for a zerker, I would go for either norse or dwarf

it still hardcaps at 300.

i'm a norse hunter, but with self buff and shammie buff i regularly pass over 300 dex...

 

[old.Finster]

hardcap at 300 no longer exists since 1.50.

me, Norse SB sporting 303 str while buffed by Pridez or similar buffer.

and i was thinking as well that evade is based off Dx/Qui (ratio unknown) if you have better info post the link please.

In this grab bag.

Q: Which stats affect parry, evade, and block?

A: Parry = dex, evade = dex and quick equally, block = dex.

str over 300 doesnt add to weaponskill though ;/
