Iksar Warrior - Starting stats

Rhaj · #1 09-17-2011, 07:13 PM

Here in a little while I will be starting up my Iksar warrior. I had one on live back in 2001 or so but I want everyones input now on where I should throw my 25 points in.

Previously I put them into STA, but I have heard arguments for putting it into DEX.

What is the consensus?

I read that STA is the hardest thing to increase via items, and being that your job is to get hit as much as possible, I would say stick with STA and worry about DEX when you get proccing weapons. If you can afford those, you can afford some DEX items.

Stamina for sure. Also not an iksar.

I'll always remember a warrior saying to me....

"I wish I had put all my points into charisma since that is the main stat for DI proc"

but then again that was a raiding warrior post pop....

I guess the whole play what you want doesn't apply the iksar warrior combo [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Play what -class- you want ; )

But stamina, regardless. Even for an ogre.

I thought AC bonus actually made Iksars a decent race for Warriors?

The only "Bad" thing is Iksars cant carry most of Plate Armors.

Well they can't wear crafted.. they cant wear indocolite.. and they can't wear cobalt. Obviously if you can hold out till later in veilous, they'll catch up in a hurry.. but not until then.

Yeah, Iksar warriors are great in Velious+. Serious gear issues in Kunark, but you can scrape by.
