Blade stats

Pyrenk · 01-09-2003, 06:58 PM

I need advice on how to distribute stats for the Blade. I got very luvky on a roll with a previous character, and got 13-18-18-18-16-15 (I changed them to make the three 18's). What is the best way to distribute for a solo blade?

Weapons-Short sword/Scimitar, if it helps.

I took my Bard through BG and ended up with these stats.

Str 19
Dex 19
Con 16
Int 15
Wis 15
Chr 19

Copied the character file to make two versions. One became a Blade. He has no known weaknesses. He is a monster in melee. His other incarnation was a Skald. Skald soloed the game.

19 natural strength fixed the THAC0 problem. Also added a nice bit of damage. 19 dexterity made him fearsome with bows or crossbows, as wll as boosting his pick pockets a good bit. He gets lore bonuses having 15 in both int and wis. With his high natural charisma, he needs no assistance from items. Although he can shoplift the Blade of Roses and get nice bonuses when he is forced to shop from people he can't apply a five finger discount. To learn spells, he gulps a potion to boost his int. There is no need to get higher then 14 or 15 on int, as a Bard can only cast spells at maximum of the sixth level. 18 int is a total waste of time.
