Things like this on this site have been a GREAT resource for the more casual player like myself. I LOVE the game, but really don't have the time to make new characters over and over figuring out what works. I need to make a character and stick with it. Not only do I need to, I like to as well, because I get attached to my characters. Guess that goes back to my D&D days. Anyways, thanks for this, because TG has been a tough class for me to get used to.. My 1st attemp on my own was a total mess. This will be my 2nd, and hopefully it turns out playable. If so, it's all thanks to this community.
Anyway, Before I start the character, I just want to give you pros a quick preview and ask a couple questions about poinnt and rune allocations. And just to see if this will be a sound build in general. I'm on the PS3 version mind you.
For stat points, I'm going to do a 50/50 split between stamina and vitality.
For skills, my main choices are
Devout Guardian Focus
Source Warden Lore
Concentration
Tactics Lore
Sword
Combat Dicipline
Armor Lore
for the 7th I'm figuring combat reflexes
the other 2...not sure....doesn't really matter. I suppose it could be anything. That doesn;t matter. What I'd like to know in this skill tree, how should I be spreading out points, and in which should I put none? And is anything glaringly wrong with these choices?
For Combat Arts, these will be my most used
I'm making CA permanent and will use energy shroud
Spears obviously
Both Fire and Ice just because I like variety
Grid
Untouchable
and one of the melee CAs. Which one should I use for that? Dedicated Blow or Combat Extention? Which attacks quicker and does the best damage over the long run?
Also, how many runes should I read of each CA?
Edit- Also, I like using the Arch laser arm CA because it just looks kool. To have that at it's most usefull without it's lore skill, should I read all the runes I can or just the one?
Thanks for any help.
