Help with a PvE/RP-PvP template

Ambrosius Custard · 30th June 2008, 08:32 AM

I'm trying to build a samurai template that'll be decent in both PvE and RP-PvP (aka no magical weapons, armor or jewelry allowed) but I'm having a hard time fitting in everything I'd like. So far I've been thinking with going with something like:

120 Swords
120 Bushido (currently scrolled to 115)
120 Parry (currently scrolled to 115)
100 Tactics
100 Anat (will probably take it to 110 whilst parry/bush are 115 and it's currently scrolled to 120 from ages ago)
100 Heal
60 Chivalry

85 Str (quite low but potions should bring it up)
120 Dex (along with a dex pot will mean max heal time)
50 int

But I can't help but feel the lack of mana regen in RP-PvP will be a bit annoying. As a human you get something like 0.58 mana regen in leather armor at 0 med/focus and 100 focus grants something like 0.7, but I'm still not sure. I've considered dropping chiv for med but that'd make things a fair amount worse in PvE and I'd no longer have access to remove curse, which would be very annoying with no resists in both PvE and PvP. I've also contemplated dropping heal and anat and taking med and resist instead. I've been away from the game for some time so I'm not sure how the newer skills work but I'd definitely like to have a crack at using bushido. Any tips regarding a template would be great. Cheers!

It would get annoying without focus or med. If you focus on either the PvP aspect or the PvM aspect, you could make it better for one or the other. For example, if you drop chivalry and a few points of healing, you could add 60-70 points of meditation, use leather armors, and you'll never miss chivalry in RP-PvP. Otherwise you'll have to pick your special moves very carefully.

For PvM, it depends on where you are. Some groups allow for mana leeching weapons against the non-people, in which case, use them. Otherwise you'll have to be very conservative in casting EoO or divine fury.
