Im assuming then that bladesa re pretty much pointless PvP?

Whats the max LVL cap? is it 100?

[mic]

well blade are bad at pvp is due to the lack of hp/def and evade
max lvl goes over 100, dont know how much though

[Luri]

Theres a chart somewhere on some website and it listed exp needed for the different levels, it went up to 150.

[Focusix]

as i know there are items for lvl 120... but try to get lvl 100 xD

[UnderDog]

I forgot the early dexterity speed break points, but the ones later on are: 100, 130, and 200 (information provided by Metroidman).

This means that at those 3 points, your attack speed will increase.

Strafe: No, I don't give away free penya. But if you message GaRyZ in-game, he can help you out.

Norrath: If you're planning to giant hunt a lot later on, Sneaker is a good plus. However, it's not absolutely required.

PvP
PvP damage for melee characters is really simple. It's simply your attack rate minus the opponent's defense rate as long as you're within 4 levels of your opponent. Hence, the main stats for a good PvP character is Stamina (HP and defense) and Strength (attack rate). Dexterity isn't very helpful seeing that people rarely dodge, parry in PvP (assuming once again that your opponent is within 4 levels).

By about how much is it increased? 1.5times your pre-dex breakpoint speed?

Lv. 20 gives 50 dmg and 25 accurancy



Lv. 20 gives 50 dmg and 25 def



But these attributes on those skills isn't implemented yet.

Hmm this is interesting. 25 DEF bonus, more reason to go for axe kiddos.

[PenSpinner]

I'm lost...

[Strafe]

Ok, I must confirm this. The additional defense from Smite Axe works! Im pretty sure Blazing Sword would also increase accuracy now (I haven't tried since I'm an axe-user).

[Focusix]

yes, i can confirm you that blazing increase you accurancy, i miss more without blazing sword, i mean remarkably more.

[Gideon]

When you activate Berserk, does it remove self-buffs like Sword Mastery or Blazing Sword?

[Luri]

Nope, just that you can't use skills in that duration of Berserk.

In that case,
*spends 1mil on vitals to get blazing sword to lvl 18*

[Strafe]

*maxes Smite Axe for an extra 25 DEF*

By the way, I have a question about Blade's dual wielding. Since it is possible to use an axe and a sword in each hand, will this also mean that you can use both Sword and Axe masteries and both Blazing and Smite?

I'm asking if you can get the +25 DEF and +10 accuracy if you wield an axe and a sword instead of sword+sword and axe+axe.

[Luri]

You use the mastery according to your weapon on your right hand.

So it's impossible to have both mastery on when you wield sword-axe or the other way round.
