Provo Bard, Need wrestle?

[Hoots]

In between running from Deacon in dugeons i have been trying to decide what i want my cash farmer to be.

Purely PvM,

Right now i have..
100 Anat
100 Heal
100 Music
75 provo
72 magery
65 tacts
93 fence
90 hiding

I had fence/tact for the early game to get cash for reags. I want to drop them and add Med for a 7x of

Anat, Heal, Music, Provo, Magery, Med, Hiding. Between hiding /anat healing i think this would be a good template for pvm (along with alot of running...)

SO... no resist, no wrestle... Can this template be good for a provo bard? I really like healing and hiding for my play style but i can understand why there may be better skills.

THoughts? Comments? opinions?

THis char will be used to buy housing and reags for PvP's Alchem/Posion... etc,

i dont see why this wouldnt work, with two methods of healing, 3 if you have pots. and hiding.
as long as they dont corner you, you should be quite tricky to kill.
plus just run around with magic reflect on!!!

So no wrestling or EI doesnt kill this char? If something is hitting on me i guess im not doing a good job with this guy to begin with?

[venox]

yea, obviously this char isnt for pvp. but you should be able to survive pk easy enough. if he doesnt surprise you when your down!
but the same applies to every1 with that.
plus at gm magery you will probable be stomping around with daemons.

my t-hunter is pretty much the same as your temp except he has cart/LP instead of heal/anat. and i get around alright.

I have a provo t-hunter that does not have wrestling or eval int and it works out fine. Just gotta be careful, because even ratmen can hurt when they hit you every single time.

[venox]

true that.
silver do you have hiding or eval on your t-hunter?
i have hiding which i find useful because i can be more carless and leave my hunter out in the wild if i go afk for a bit. but id imagine eval would be good also, for those times when a bit of magic blast is all that is needed to finish of that creature.

music, provo, cart, lockpick, magery, med, resist

This is why i love healing/anat.

I got trapped by two mummies and a skel last night and having 0 armour on it wasnt looking good. Even with slipping a couple of times i had 2 bandages save me when i failed to provoke the mummies on each other twice. <-- that sounds weak but mummies are tougher than i remember... i always thought they were week like zombies?

I look at it this way... if you get trapped by hi end monsters you are dead no matter what skillset you have.. Healing/anat should keep me alive for getting caught by a low end mob..

Ofcouse when i get magery up having a daemon would help aswell,...
