Ok, I made a char that I intended and am doing spawns with. He is a 4/6 chiv/mage w/spellweaving as of last night. (took gm spwv back off the stone for the heck of it, and actually liked it)

Now, someone was telling me that the 4fc only works on chiv if your magery is like below 70.

So if anyone can answer this it would be appreciated, because if its the case, I can restructure his suit a bit more and be more effective.

While I may very well be wrong on this:

4/6 is Chiv only... I heard once it is actually 4/8... To my knowledge you can only achieve this with the Vesper Chaos Replica Shield...

All other spells are subject to the 2/6 limit...

Please prove me wrong if someone can, I have not been able to test this in a practical manner and I would be very pleased if Spellweaving worked under these rules...

It's 4/6 chiv 2/6 mage no matter what skill level

thats what I thought, but a guy in my guild was saying that since I had 115 magery, my chiv would only be at 2/6, and I needed to take it down to 70 so the 4/6 to be effective. It is hard to tell cause either way its fast. I dont plan on taking off the 4/6 because it just so happens to complete my suit.

the highest fc you can be is 6(orny, 1/3 ring, helm, staff/swds/book, shield

fcr is 14 (orny, 1/3ring, helm, staff/swd/book/inquis, shield

completely useless, but if you wanted you could be 6/14

I think thats it for the fc/fcr items.

what Damin said

Thats what I thought. I think he was severly mis-informed. Or else why would people make 4/6 chiv/mages. People prob just think they are gimp, thats ok with me. I made mine for spawns. Funny thing happened tonite, this very questionable practicing guild came and raided our tortoise spawn, and I killed 3 of em with pixies. After they kept swearing up and down at me for having spellweaving on that char. it did me just fine tonite. BUUUUUUUUUUUUUT not before everyone in my guilds vent at the time's ping jumped into the 5000s and we couldnt move to save any of our lives. Seems to happen EVERYTIME this guild shows up too....... Call spellweaving a trammy skill or not, it works.

Try sometime death strike, then sic some imps/pixies on someone. Nasty combo.

Oh yes... The pixie spam... woot... Natures Fury is great for getting the gankers who hide in a house and shoot arrows at ya....

its SUPPOSED to work that way, but it doesnt. Feel free to hop on this bluebie crutch before it gets fixed.

Oh I'm hoppin on it while I can. It is the most effective spawning char I have made yet. Gimp, but effective. Sucks when we get raided tho, cant do crap to kill someone, but spawn-wise, its great. The only one I have seen work better is the necro/bard. They can damn near solo a spawn with no problems.

I have a chiv/mage myself that I like to us in spawns sometimes in PvP. How in the world did to manage to get Spellweave as another skill with it?

My temp is currently:

120 Chiv
120 Mage
120 Medi
120 Eval
120 Resist
120 Wrestle

What did you drop to add SW or what is your current temp??

the exact same just took out wrestle and put in spwv. the wrestle is on a stone just incase it doesnt work out in the long run. didnt find myself needing to disarm or stun punch any spawn, so i found using spellweaving in place of wrestle worked better for me

Sounds like a good option to me.
