Agree. At least at rr5-6 when you get some extra +skill under your belt.Eeben said:from all the spec i tryet on my mincer i found the 50ins 39sla 18stealth spec the best
My mincer is now 5L1 and 50Instruments/33Steatlth/30Slash and probably going to respec to 50ins, 39slash etc soon.

supose you autotrained Ballard
same spec as me, I got to say, it is the spec I enjoy the most for soloing.
so why do we minstrels acutlly need stealth?
we get observed on miles range by other stealthers.
it is like running around blindfolded when in stealth.
you never know what pops you.
I'd say, our stealth, is a waste, without running from grps and then stealth.

each realm has about 3 steathers each.... there are about 11 class's in each realm, and there are 2realms you have a chance of fighting... so therefore 3/11 chance you'll be uncovered, excluding ml's... thats just below a 30% chance that everything you encounter will be stealthed...

Im 50 inst 39 slash 18 stlth. its not really any use to go any higher stealth.. because all other stealthers see you from miles away with their mos 3++ no matter what lvl of stealth you have. and 18+11+ra is normally enough to hide from grps (if they dont run trough you).

tbh speccs on minstrel doesnt really count
cause all of them are shit
STEALTH ? HUH LET ME laugh even grp chars can find u easy .
slash ? HAHAHAHA even with 101 str template , aug str 4 . mop 4 slash 50+19i was hittin for shit dmg .
instruments ? HAHAHA old times i was 50 instru wp4mom4aug acuit 3 . + AT
and i was hittin for NICE DMG. now days.. omg . u hit for shit
so it doesnt matter to be 50 instru. as u get only bonus damage
best stun is on lvl 40 . speed5 is on lvl 43 . ablative is just a SMALL add.
what the diff between 70 and 40 .sooo best specc ?
mmm i guess old time classic but u need to be rr10 ;p
50instru
30+20 st
31+20 slash
if u go for grps . mmmm
44 thrust
50 instru for imba side snare .
to help tanks kill the target and not kite .
if u not autotrained . then go for mm
39 slash
43 instru
28 st if i remember correct .
with last one u have decent st so grps dont see u
typical dds . stun etc and backslash love
my last try is
50 slash (no reason for this but who cares)
43 instru ( no reason for more. dds for interrupt and speed 5)
purge 3 ( no det , no charge still enemy line. u need to purge really often)
em 2 ( mostly on inc. so u can charge and interrupt as much w/o dying)
am 2 ( counter effect of twf . as well as givin some time clerics to shear)
sos 1 ( who doesnt love sos for the inc )
moc 1 ( moc demezz in front of enemies. w/o affectin dds or stun )
aom 3 ( not dying fast while u are in enemy line )
lw2 ( dds, styles , sprint . u always out of endu it helps a lot )
mof2 (u need this as some abilities like stun is lvl 40 one )

I tried this, nicer melee and the slight benefit of 'safefall' you get from the 20
stealth can make a difference when you have about 35% hps left and there
are a couple of friendly trolls /stuck to you on the top of a bridgetower.
The spiral staircases in old crauchon were fun when I was 50 30 33 (iirc)
specced in OF. That was fun, dragging 4-5 mid tanks off the staircase near
the top, sometimes I died too but not before half their group wiped by hitting
the overpowered floor.

My minstrel was 50 inst, 29 slash, 32 stealth iirc. It was duo specced
44 thrust 44 inst 23 stealth iirc
decent for everything cept running with pets, ironically iv been petting the most recently :X
cant help but take the hard route, its like some weird form of tourettes
thrust isnt bad though and GS owns for interrupting

Mathematically it is flawed and effectively it is total bullshit:
Runnng stealthed, your chances of being uncovered by a stealther are 90% and rise the closer you get to a bridge or the higher your stealth is specced (since visibles won't see you).
Running visible at speed ur chances of being engaged by a stealther is below 10% because they can't line up PA and solo archers won't attack (if you have a decent RR).
