    Hello everybody,

    I'm new to this shard. I used to play for many years on a POL server focusing on PvP.

    I want to try to make it also here and I would like some suggests from you, according to my preferences.

    1)Versatile, Solo character
    2)Dofficult but Funny
    3)Kick A**es

    What template would you suggest to me?

    Thank you in advance for your assistance!

    Pick up archery, it is difficult and funny, run around solo and kick asses.

    I read that is possible to have hibryd classes like archery and magery together. Is it possible? Does it worth?

    Thanks

    Yes, it works. You can be effective with a hybrid mage/weapon template. Or, you can specialize your mage with stun-punch (anatomy/wrestling provide this), inscription or poisoning, for example.

    No, you can't cast while holding any weapons.

    So it's gonna be a balance between casting and hitting with the bow. What's the most balanced template of the hibrid mage-archer?

    Well, you get 7 GM skills at most, so a typical hybrid would be Magery/Meditation/Evaluating Intelligence/Resist Magic/Archery/Tactics/Anatomy. You could alter that by dropping Meditation for Healing so you can use bandages instead but that's a touchy trade-off. Really hard to say what's perfectly balanced as I imagine both of them can be played well if you work at it.

    Archer/Mages have their utility and ability. If you prefer to keep your distance, then this is certainly a great template. I would wonder what type of armor you plan to equip, but I'd go with light armor and keep meditation over taking healing. That is just a personal preference. If you go with any metal armor at all, then go with healing for that extra healing power.
