Hi everyone,
I am new to Sacred 2 and this forum and could use some advice from more experienced players. I have invested quite some time now in reading guides and looking up builds for my shopper-seraphim build but as there is no respecing I would realy apreciate some input.
The idea of this build is a dual wielding Seraphim with bargain and some Rev Tech.
Skills
1 Tactics Lore 2
2 Armor Lore 3
3 Dual wield 5
4 Enhanced Perception 8
5 Bargaining 12
6 Exalted Warrior Focus 18
7Revered Technology Focus 25
8 Toughness 35
9 Revered Technology Lore 50
10 Constitution 65
CA (Mod)
Pelting Strikes[/s2wiki] (Successio, Focus, Precision)
Flaring Nova (Expand, Stun, Laggard) [I am still undecided if to go for expand or impulse, what do you think?]
Battle Stance (Premonition, Drill, Retaliation)
Dashing Alacrity (Sprout, Delay, Impatience)
Assailing Somersault (only for fun and traveling)
Soul Hammer (Aim, Battering, Coup de Grace)
Divine Protection (Capacity, Boost, Improved Mirror)
Archangels Wrath (Salvo, Lock, Vulnerable)
Stats: (as realy nicely explaned by soldat's)
Stamina 1 point/level (1-50)
Stamina/Vitality 1 point/level (50-...)
My thoughts about the Skills:
Tactics lore, Armor Lore and Dual wield are as I understand it not up for diskusion for a dw-build (maybe not in that order but still).
Enhanced Perception is in this case my prereq for bargain, so the next 2 are sadly necessary.
Exalted Warrior Focus for -reg and combined with Tactics Lore for mod points
The last 4 are the ones that make my head hurt:). Rev Tech Lore/Focus I chose because Divine Protection sounds too good and to work properly with Dashing alacrity it has to be moded. The other reason is that I think without Flaring Nova this build lacks utility (stun) and Area of Effect-dmg and some ranged CA like archangels wrath would also be nice.
For survivability I chose Toughness and Constitution.
Problems and Questions:
One of the Problems of this build are in my view of a devensive nature. With the Rev tech Lore/Focus and PE/Bargain I have no Skills to spare for Concentration (therefore no need for warding energy lore) , so no second buff and also no combat reflexes. Theoreticaly later on I can keep divine protection nearly constantly on (console version), but is this enough to keep me alive? And is it even posible or practical to ceep devine protection (in a combo with dashing alacrity) up especialy in long boss fights?
So a lot of compromisses have to be made and I am not quite sure if I did the right think, so if you have any suggestions or see an error in my reasoning or tried something like this and didnt like it pls tel me. The Problem is that I will probably have not the time to play a lot of different Chars to high level besides my work, so input from you would be realy wellcome.
Ok thats it for now and thanks in advance and pardon my spelling (thats not even in my mothertoung (not english as you probably noticed:)) my strong side).
