PvM macer Question

Post by Koden »

Putting a Grinder together

Mace GM
Tac GM
Resist GM
Parry GM

After that it gets sticky
I'm thinking

Heal 90
Anat 90
Magic 25
Track 20
Hiding 75

My thoughts were that the parry would make up for the not GM anat & heal. But I did the math with a pen in my hand so I could only count to 7 :) I could drop Hid to 60 & trak to 15 & GM anat/heal or ??? I'm open to thoughts

GM heal and anatomy. Then you should be good with a 70 / 30 (hiding / magery).

That's exactly how I would handle the situation too.

Why 70/30? I'd go the reverse, and have 70 magery and 30 hiding. I think 70.1 Magery is enough to never fail a level 4 spell like Recall, and I'm not sure there's any situation in which I'm content with a 70% chance of hiding but wouldn't be content with a 30% chance of hiding. 70.1 Magery also allows for around 75-80% success with level 5 spells like Magic Reflection.

Macing 100
Tactics 100
Anatomy 100
Healing 100
Magic Resist 100
Parry 100
Magery 70
Tracking 30

That should get you through any situation you might encounter PvM. If you're worried about Hiding, don't waste 30 points. Get yourself a bunch of invis items as they're better due to the fact you can hide in an aggro crowd if need be.

Thanks all, I am thinking about something close to what Brymstone is showing. My Resist is still low *high 50s, as is my heal. I have not turned Magic up & Hide down yet. That said with GM gear and some pots I was killing Elfs so I think I'm on the track I wanted. As to PvP I won't be hunting a fight with this toon, but when it comes, with a lot of 25 & 35 dex PKers out there I was thinking 1) run/recall/hide 2) if I can't do 1, cast curse, smack away and hope they don't have to many red pots.
