    Recently tried a melee tamer, super fun especially for the events every year.


    **meant for running events, not farming solo to make money.

    100str 100dex 25int
    Macing
    Tactics
    Anat
    Heal
    Taming
    Lore
    Vet

    burns through bandages but they're cheap and regs can be a pain to buy in bulk sometimes. Of course you can't gate yourself and whatnot, but wow what a fun char! :)


    Next one i'm making is similar, but meant for a lucky charms / warhorse
    100/100/25 or 90/100/35 pending on if i'm shaving a few skills down to put in some magery.
    Weapon
    Tact
    Anatomy
    Music
    provo
    vet
    lore

    Little bit more versatile, but lacking as much firepower.



    What are some of your favorite uncommon build to use?! Might help some newer players find new builds to make!

    I’ve been playing around with Lucky Charms type builds too. You have no way of healing yourself and getting hit happens. I’ve considered no Lore which basically means just no cure/Rez.

    Would it listen to you though? Was never 100% sure of that

    Yeah I got whacked by mobs quite often with my recent character. Might have to suck it up and make a

    Ugh.....

    @Keza you brought this build to my attention a while back. I never used a pack of them but my naturalist fencer tamer used one! We all had a blast letting a frenzied tank big stuff while we ran around fighting. That build is responsible for many tamer dexxer builds. So for what you did to rep it.... THANK YOU!!!!

    I even tried macing this time around, and for pvm, it’s awesome! Those crushing blows lay down the damage and tired enemies are way easier to handle!

    Funny you mention this, I literally just bought a charms solely for this purpose, and am training as we speak. It is an adjustment char, so I will likely be done in a day or two.

    Mine drops Anatomy for Discordance and goes 80 lore / 20 Magery for some cure and heal spells as well as better rates on telekinesis scrolls. Keep in mind you can't cure pet poison without 60 Lore and can't Res pets without 80. This will be an AMIB char. I plan to see how it works and adjust if needed. Charms will be taking the hits of I can play it right.

    It's reeeeeeeeeally interesting getting used to it. I had to re-do my thoughts on when to do stuff and in what order. But that's the beauty of things!!!! Putting youself in some weird situations and not knowing the best route at first. That's part of the fun!

    GL on that lucky charms man, i'll probably have to hobo it on a faction horse :)

    Excuse my ignorance - lucky charms build? I gather that's some sort of pet (a type of horse?), but I'm not sure what lol.

    It was a horse you can tame in the St Patty's day event. It has war horse type stats, so it makes a decent tank in a pinch.

    They don’t do any more damage, if so not substantial, but they DO have 500or so hit points, making them an amazing tank!

    If you think about it, we play with hybrids most of the time... All types of dexxer bards, bard mages and mage tamers. There is at least one hybrid that I want to “invent“ soon.
    I believe it's super hardcore but has to stay secret yet (what a tease)...

    Another rare hybrid I liked playing was the following one: a recall battleminer.

    He was like
    100 mining
    100 macing
    100 tactics
    100 parry
    100 healing
    100 anatomy
    50.1 magery
    49.9 med

    The idea is to cycle through all natural golem spawns and smelt the dropping ore.

    The income was mediocre (~30-40k per hour), but it was fun. Plus you meet alot other miners in caves for chatting (or PKing) purposes.

    This is my latest thought on the subject:

    100 Weapon
    50 Tactics
    90 Healing
    100 Anat
    100 Music
    100 Provo
    80 Vet
    80 Lore

    Here is what I run:
    http://www.uorenaissance.com/player/2484490

    Damage output is nice!

    A few trouble spots: with no resist, I get pwn’ed by casters. I’m not supposed to get hit, but oftentimes, the mobs don’t want to do what I want them to!
    Also, there are times my bandaids can’t keep up with the damage mid-level mobs put out, especially when there are multiple mobs! That said, I still die more often than my Lucky!

    I have wondered what the build would look like if I used maces instead (for stamina drain) and picked up resist. But after All the time I spent GM’ing LJ... do I really want to do that?!?!

    I tried a lucky charm build with provo, didint worked.. so i am now running with:

    100 swords
    100 anatomy
    100 tactics
    100 healing
    100 veterinary

    Now my doubt
    Animal lore, 80 or 100?(i want a vet machine, i puted 100dex to make vet as faster as possible, so i will probably gm lore too)
    The others 100 points? i have now 50 of magery(i will maybe put it to 60) then 40 of something?(hiding? resist? gm magery? 80 of poisoning?)
