Creation Point Discussion

[Flash]

Dex is an easy one to raise through equipment though. And you can always hit up a Shaman for a Dex buff.

no it won't. it'll have maybe 100 more hp. and when raid targets are quadding for 800 (lookin at you OoA) if you are getting attacked you're already dead, doesn't matter how many hp you have as a druid.

It's not to tank with. Believe it or not HP helps in lots of raids for anyone - more than anything else you can get with those starting points, anyway, regardless of class.

Better to be alive doing 60 dps than dead after doing 62.

FINAL RULING PLS:

I rolled an Ogre war on red and put everything in Dex... do I need to reroll w/ sta?

Your post is all well and good for any player who intends to HEAVILY twink their character and for any player who intends to do a fair amount of raiding (or more) at high levels.

But for the average "noob" who comes to the server, putting points in stamina is more likely to get them frustrated with their character as they die to a moss snake than it is to help them in the long run.

All this discussion is well and good about Sta and Dex. But I have played every class on here, several times on some lol, and unless you are hell bent on raiding end game the best stat is Strength for most classes.

Because if you solo or group not being able to wear all your Plate gear as a Melee type or being able as a Necro to carry crap weapons for your pet, and not being able to loot even crap gear to sell for copper sucks totally

Looting is the only way you can make plat in this game and not being able to carry 3 Bear hides and a few Fine Steel weapons around for a bit until you find a vender blows. Imagine going to City of Mist with all the great gear there as a Enchanter with 75 Strength and looting for hours on end to buy new spells with the loot. Good luck with that happing with putiing all your stats in Sta and Int.

There is not too much good Strength geat for Casters in this game. And unless you choose a Large race for Melee classes most suck at base strength also.

I always put some stats in Sta also but most in strength and some in wis and int for casters. Being emcumbered just totaly sucks. And the average person on here is never going to be able to afford 4 100% Weight Reduction bags. Ain't happining.

Depends on what you want to do. Dex will noticeably increase the amount of procs you get with weapons, allowing you to tank (PVE, maybe PVP depending on the proc) more effectively. As an ogre, you already have a very high starting STA, so it is easy to cap out with gear and buffs, while DEX is much more difficult to max with buffs. Now, if you plan on being unbuffed during PVP, the additional STA may help you more than one or two extra procs (if you even have a proccing weapon).

Basically:
DEX if you want to tank (PVE warrior role), and use proc weapons.
STA if you plan on being unbuffed for much of your time playing (PVP?) or you do not plan on raid tanking (PVE).

This is actually really sound advice. Looking back, I should have spent my points differently.

[Daldaen]

Glad I spent all mine into Wis on my druid. Dirty half-elves.

[Autotune]

Erudite necro, i put all my points into wisdom. I am the #1 necro on the server.


Starting stats mean jack, l2p.
