Can a Great PvP Mage survive with Low ....

Othello · 24th October 2007, 10:27 AM

As we all know, with the new changes it has becomes hard for mages to fit all they want into a great PvP template without giving up one thing or another ....

My question is, can a Great PvP mage survive with low (say 50 or 60) Meditation IF the character has maxed out MR, and maxed out LMC??? This may be a silly question to some of you old time PvP vets but I am just trying to be creative and thinking of ways to fit all I want into my templates.

Does it make being human (Jack of all trades) a must?? I love being an elf with the extra mana pool.
Anyways, thanks for any input.

If all your items with that med skill are medable then sure....

depends what spells you like to use... and mana, but probably yes.

Definatly, I have never been in a pvp battle where I had the time or need to use meditation during the fight and I use the following template.

120 Magery
120 Eval
120 Necro
120 SS
100 Resist
100 parry
40 meditate

I dont have max mana regen either and only have about 20 lmc... In my experience nearly all battles are won by the more experienced pvper, I started with this template and lost alot to chars with lower skills but more experience, Just practice alot and get used to your keys and make good macros, and keep your int high..140 + GL

If you can get around 8-10 MR, you should be fine.

Absolutely!~ I would get more like 15mr on the suit personally. Although your template with parry seems like you will need more due to the 80 dex you will be toating. I tried this and it didn't work out as well as I would have liked. Necro spells HOG mana.

To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.
