    First things first:

    I am a new member of this forum and I want to say "hi"winking sorry in advance for my occasional language slips, I'm not native English speaker.

    After we got acquainted, I would like to ask you for advice.


    I'm currently running a character that aims to reach SL 120.

    My current stats are: (SL 115)

    V 35
    A 23
    E 30
    S 20
    D 16
    R 12
    I 50
    F 12


    The char is mainly spell-based, I tend to use lightning washing pole/enchanted claymore for melee combat (planning to get moonlight greatsword too). Target armour is something light, currently running in +5 crimson set with Crown of Dusk. The main rings are: Bellowing Dragoncrest Ring + Dark Wood Grain Ring. Basically, the idea in both pve and pvp is to be wiggly, do LOTS of spell damage, and decent melee damage.

    Now, I have no idea how I should distribute the remaining 5 levels.

    My ideas are:

    1) Endurance – more stamina equals more rolling.
    2) Intelligence – bigger damage with spells, but is it worth to get >50 Intelligence? I have heard that after this point the damage gain is rather small.
    3) Dexterity – I have heard it affects the speed of casting spells.

    What are your opinions? How would you add those 5 levels?


    Thanks in advance for your help!

    - I think you have enough stamina as it is.

    - No, going above 50 Int is absolutely not recommended--total waste of levels.

    - Getting your Dex from 16 to 21 won't make any difference in casting. You really need to be around 40 Dex to see any difference at all.

    If I were you, I would either dump those points into Vit, or get myself one more attunmnent slot.

    (By the way, friendly tip: you created this thread in the wrong section. This should be in the PvP sub-forum.)

    Welcome to the forums, btw!

    @tip

    My bad, if any admin is able to re-paste my topic in the right section, please do it. Will be more careful next time winking

    @advice

    Thanks, had no idea how much the dexterity affects (or it that case, does not affect :p) spell casting.

    Yeah, it's a tiny difference and takes a lot of levels. In PvP, a tiny difference can be huge, but not at that high a cost. So I'd only recommend it for true Dex/ Int hybrids.

    Definitely either endurance or vitality. At 50 there isn't much of a reason to continue increasing intelligence and I don't think dex is nearly as important as the other two, vitality in particular, especially if you're planning on pvping.

    Yeah I just read the previous posts. I totally agree as well
