Not sure if I am posting this in the right place or not but seemed like it fits so here I am =p. I have started making these characters and 2 out of three are almost complete except for 1 or two skills, but I wanted to know peoples thoughts on if these are anywhere near effective on this server (im under a month here so newb =p). also any advice on skills or tweaks I am very appreciative of all help!

I personally have never made a faction thief, so I can't give you advice on that. But have you thought of making a Heal/Stun Mage? Your last skill on that last Template could be Healing and you have a very versatile char that can bandage on the run without getting caught. 100 magery 100 resist 100 med 100 eval 100 wrestling 100 anat 100 healing Good for solo pvp or group really.
If you plan on group pvp I would put inscribe on your stun mage. In a group you never really use healing that much unless your tucking tail and running. As for a faction thief your template works, but the 20 tracking will be 95% useless. I myself prefer to go stun/mage with stealing for a thief, so your extremely useful in groups still. Your other option (which can be a blast) is to create a disarm/mage thief instead. You don't get those stuns but it can be a blast to go around and disarm dexers and jack their vanq weps. All up to you.
I heard Inscribe wasn't very useful once they take your reflect off. maybe ill just make my my stun mage my faction thief... I didn't want to use the name for a thief but I am bored lol! What were your thoughts on my hybrid? see many in factions?
Inscribe will still save your butt a few times regardless and they have to take longer getting off your reflect. On top of that you can arch protect yourself while having reflect up. So I'd say inscribe is still useful if used properly. As far as hybrids I do see a lot in factions. They are primarily used more in smaller combat though and end up mainly using their magery to kill people in group pvp. Its not often I see a hybrid doing a killing blow with a weapon. But hybrids are very viable none the less, especially in a 1v1 scenario.
Aye that does sound helpful. what faction do you run with? I am putting the finishing touches on my Hybrid (resists are being painfully slow) and I turned my stun mage into a faction thief XP I am finishing him up now as well. shouldn't be to much longer before I am in the fray. Just need to find a guild =p.
