On beta I was full AGI w/ dropped intox.

Chox · 11-13-2007, 01:53 AM

With the changes to intox (works of ranged and can be cast while moving) Think I might keep it.

unless you plan on giving up intox theres no point in going AGI if your not getting the last ability.. stam would be way better..

Still going to take wis over sta

What about dropping Perfectionist?? It only works on 1 Combat Art. Plus with all the STR gear in RoK, it might be easier to sacrifice the STR line alittle rather than INT which we will still be seeing a bonus from the AA tree. Has anyone tried that to see if there is any difference or think there would be? I am not saying I would actually do it, just wondering if anyone has tried it.

Personally I am thinking this for raiding:

STR:6,4,4,8,2
AGI: 4,4,4,8
INT: 7,4,4,8,2

optional from above

STR: 4,4,4,8
AGI: 6,4,4,8,2
INT: 7,4,4,8,2

Unless they fix Concealment, and this for group and solo grinding.

STR: 6,4,4,8,2
STA: 4,4,4,8
INT: 7,4,4,8,2

u dropped Perfectionist ? lawL sorry about that haha.

okay, now what you loose :

The enhanced dmg for Main/Second Nuke, reduce Casttimers. Remember that "Killing Blade" reduce the recast too + 3 piece Setbonus. No Endabilitie is it worth to drop Perfectionist.

My built will be : STR/INT (+last abilitie) and (depends of the Endcontent) WIS "or" STA

WIS : Better aggromanagment + Stealth Bonus (when it works with Concealment completly) and remember Hate Xfer isnt upgraded + incr. Stealth/Surv. Abilitie !

STA: AE unstealthed Attack + AE Hurrican Proc, Health Point Bonus (Poison Trigger works better with AE Attacks, remember Frontload + and the two stealth AoEs).

Thats my opinion about the "Archievement System".

Yeah forgot about Killing as well. But no I didn't try and I aint intending to just wondering if anyone had tried it. But yeah perfect point you would be loosing alot.

I like AGI for the +% to ranged crit. Got a good bow and thats a pretty decent upgrade for damage if you add bow shots into your rotation. For WIS, only if they make it work with conceal will I use it. Aggro isnt really an issue with a good tank and watching your burn. Mostly a good tank. It is definitely going to be more of an issue than before, but Ill try without it and see if it really warrants extra AA. I think STA is still good but if raiding doesnt have alot of multi-mob encounters its useless. Why I will use it for group/solo stuff.

Really I think its all up in the air. Doubt well have a clear advantage with one until quite a while after release.

"now" isnt that a Issue (Aggromanagment) but how it will be on lvl 80 ??? with Fatal Followup we could get aggro problems. But we will see, it depends on the endcontent which abilitie is good to use. so far...

On one hand, the AGI line is nice for the Ranged crits and CA casting speed increase (i've toyed w/ it before and it definitely "feels" much quicker)

Ultimately though, most CAs cast fast save for the AoEs, so It's not that big of a deal for me.

Wis on the other hand makes more sense for me. Being able to speed up my stealths (and maybe dropping Getaway since our standard cloak would be faster than the 2 secs or whatever it is now) may make the most sense - especially depending upon how the damage boost works.

Stinkfinger · 11-16-2007, 12:10 PM

I got a question for the people thinking of taking Wis.

you going to want to run the concealment chain with Fatal followup.

so you hit concealment, ((assuming this is changed/fixed)) so your next CA will be 8 percent more.

it cant be any of your big hitters cause your not in stealth yet? right?

even if it was your big hitter say execute 30,000k thats 32400, with the 8 percent.

do you really thing that 8 percent is even going to be noticeable?
