Expanding beyond Prerolled Stats and Using Practice
Posted: Thu Nov 25, 2021 10:06 am
Want to try different things. Stat something a little better etc when I can't PLAY.
I listen to chats/narrates and read the wiki ALOT. I haven't mastered searching the forums but I try. I also use the writtenrealms calculators and the prac trainer.
Few questions.
I already know that 18 19 19 hunters and 19 18 19 warriors are considered great stats compared to the past. So lets say I want the same physical stats but go for better mentals.
I also know you can't go 19 19 19 without being clanned. What clans allow that?
Where can I read about what clans get what?
I also don't want to waste practices. That's the basic background.
First Questions: Mentals
If not a channeler what GOOD are they category.
How much do they really affect practices?
How much better is 13 13 vs 12 12? How about 18 17 at the extreme end?
I have been reading the wiki homelands and looks like statting from Illian gives the best chance for prerolled physicals with better mentals.
I statted one 18 15 14 19 19 char. What will he/she do better than an 18 12 12 19 19?
What do they allow in game category.
Do higher mentals affect fade fear? How much matters?
What other advantages would they offer in PvP?
Wise use of practice category.
What is NEEDED for a sucessful backstab?
Say I don't want to sneak. Just hide in a room and if someone walks in type of stab. Some say hide and backstab will do the trick, others including written realms say I need to have the weapon practiced also? Which is right?
Are short blades the only bs weapon or do spears also bs?
Similar question regarding charge.
you have to have lance/spear weapon?
What is needed beside charge? Weapon?
Can I charge a hidden player?
Can I start a successful bs or charge timer before someone enters the room?
Can I start a successful bs or charge on someone in the room who flees and then comes back?
Projectiles.
In a melee fight, can I target someone I am NOT fighting?
How much is needed just for ravens?
Search.
How much Search is needed for normal PK doors? I read 50+ but are there others that get used a lot that may need a little more?
Swim.
I like to explore. What % of swim is needed to go everywhere?
Can Trolls pick up canoes and follow?
Thanks in Advance.
