a few questions on ds 3.0

[darnapkin]

might have some spoilers...


i'm going to do a 4 man team,

2 are going to be bishops

the last 2, i'm not too sure, my first question is the lord with the mace and the magic blade dagger (forgot the name) the mostly deadliest in close combat, are those the 2 best weapons?

if thats the case, my 4th would need to be a gaddgeteer, then made into a thief i guess.

each bishop would only use 2 schools of magic,.. or i may just use the lord for all my div spells.

soo, how does this sound?

thanks

a quote from nightwing

I'd probably change one of the bishops to a priest and then about level 12 change him to a fighter or lord. That way he can build mace and flail for some of the uber weapons in the game.


what about one

gaddgeteer/thief
bishop
ranger ( heard there are some great bows in game)
priest/ then to a fighter or lord

i'd be lacking some spell power, how good is the Ranger in 3.0? never played one

thanks so much

That would be a great 4 man team. The only reason you need the gadg. is to make the holy avenger and to use some new gadgets. A Sam. would work well in place of the gadg. and you would have 4 players who could cast knock so pick lock whoul not be an issue. But a lord or fighter with high enough divinity using mace and flail and dagger for the holy Avenger is the most powerful combo in the game if you ask me. Some of the swords in the game are pretty cool. There is a bow in the upper monestary you find that really helps until you come back and get the demon sting bow. The new stats on demon sting make a Ranger incredibly powerful with some of the new ammo. You no longer want to use the tripple shot crossbow.

What is the Holy Avenger?? and what do I need for it, I don't want to sell off any bits!

[Nightwing]

It all starts with the rusty blade you find in the monestary when you fight the 4 rogues at the top of the ramp. You need a gadgeteer to make the first 3 parts and then you need a high divinity skill to make the last two parts. It gets more powerfull as you mix it but it is cursed until you complete the whole blade. In the hands of a thief it can be an awesome cursed dagger. I can give you the mixing formula if you like.

I think I sold that rusty blade oops.
Yes could I have the mixing formual, now I'll have to visit every shop and try and find it again!!!

Wow, I'm defently going to find where I sold that Rusty blade...I know that magic polish must be useful for something.

Thanks

You probably sold it to the trinnie at the monestary or the Ratkin. I sold it once and tried to go back and get it but I couldn't find it.

Once I finsh the all fairy inta-kill squad I'm going to do a two person team with a rogue and fighter. I'll have the rogue use the cursed possesed anchient blade. That is a devistating blade. I'll have to get Madrass to mix it for me or just do 10 levels of gadgeteer then switch to thief.
