Hello everyone, Does anyone have exp running a template including weapon skills but without or non gm tactics perhaps 50 skill level? I am considering a LJ template with: 100 Magery 90 Med 90 Resist 90 Eval 100 Sword 100 Anat 100 LJ 30 (50-55 with accurate weapon) Tactics I am curious as to opinions on the viability of this. Any input is appreciated, thanks.
You will do less damage than with 50 LJ 100 Tactics Consider: 0 Tactics: 50% Damage 50 Tactics: 100% Damage 100 Tactics: 150% Damage So you loose 1/3 of your damage by only going with 50 Tactics. Also you forgot Healing at all, how to keep your health up? Better drop Meditation. If it's about PvP, you wont need meditation, better go 7xGM e.g. 100 Magery 100 Resist 100 Eval 100 Sword 100 Anat 100 Tac 100 Healing A PvE Template could look like this: 100 LJ 100 Sword 100 Anat 100 Tac 100 Healing 100 Music 100 Provo You are talking about skill points - but also consider your stats. Without very high dex you do very much less damage in melee Without very high int (which for a mage usually is 100) you can only cast much less spells and it also has effect on your mana regeneration rate.
Thanks for the info. I will take it into consideration. I will be testing a lower tactics skill just to see what happens and adjust from there. You mention dropping Med and I have one question about that. Does Med skill or lack thereof effect mana regen rate when not using the active meditation skill (but still wearing full medable armor)?
Thanks for the replies. One final question regarding which is a larger modifier tactics or anatomy. In a template with swords (not concerned with concussion blow) but without healing would it be better to have higher tactics or anatomy as a damage modifier?
