Xen · 02-12-2003, 02:20 PM

Well i made my party wich is:
Protagonist-Fighter/Mage
Arwen-Ranger/Cleric
Bilbo-Fighter/Thief
Gandalf-Sorcerer
Legolas-Archer

So i pu this profisencies for each character:
Me-***Warhammer(For Crom Fayer),**(FoA)
Arwen-***Sling,**Club(Gnasher comes to mind)
Bilbo(Long Sword,Bastard Sword)
Gandalf
Legolas-****Long Bow,***Short Bow

I was thinking:-should i put my(Protagonist) weapon profisenicies in Katana(For Schanuudoku(sp) and Warhammer/Crom) or should i leave as it is

Any options would be appriciatted...

Thanx in advance

Cheers

Well, you *could* go for cheese and have sanchuudako//CF, but since that *IS* cheesey...
FOA+5 is always nice but yer already using it-Runehammer?

Either Scimtar or Short Sword proficiency.

ApR is the king on the battlefield, and a Fighter/Mage will be able to hit a next to permanent 10 ApR with Improved haste (forget about GWW and get Critical Strike instead). That is, IF you use at least one weapon that increases your ApR. Either Belm (scimtar) or Kundane (short sword) will do, though Belm is probably the best choice if you can spare it.

Edit: I noticed that you thought about having three stars in War Hammers for your Fighter/Mage. Does that mean that your protoganist is a pure fighter dualled to a mage? In that case, if you dual at lvl 13, you can disregard the above comment since you'll be able to hit 10 ApR with Improved Haste anyway.

Told ya! [img]tongue.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]Bah! I still think a pure Fighter with GM and GWW trumps Imp Haste + CS in most situations

But him being only part Fighter left me little choice [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Minute Meteors and:
MoD + 2 vs Undead
FOA + 5 vs Mages
Crom Fayer vs Golems

Etc.

Blade of Roses and the Lilacor, but the lilacor does tend to get on ure nerves. Once it said 'it would be better if you just left me here, i might see a bit more action' (or something like that) and because it was annoying me so much i did ha ha, i bet he's laughing on the other side of his hilt now

Um...Lilarcor is a TWO HANDED SWORD...can only be held in both hands making dual-weilding impossible....

Ok then you cheating bastard

, so you wont need either Belm or Kundane. For pure powergaming, Hammers and Katanas is the way to go then. ***** in Katanas for Sanchuudoku and the rest in Hammers for Crom Faeyr will make you the meanest monster butcher that ever lived if you top it all of with Imp Haste and Critical strike.
