Character Stats

Maxium · #1 07-27-2010, 04:28 AM

I was age 13-19 when I played this game, so I wasn't very aware of stats back then, hence have no memory.

What exactly do the base stats give? I'm wanting to remake my warrior that I had a long time ago, but I'm also playin some caster classes too.

Warrior - Stam and Str obviously, but should I dump all my stats into stam? Is there like a 2 hp per 1 stam ratio type thing or is stam just for holding my breath until Kunark or?

Casters - Int obviously, what does it give like 7 mana per int point?

Thx

P.S. Is AC and resists still garbage?

Varies per class.

Necro you go stam first, then int.

Enchanter - charisma, then int (or stam).

Some will argue for stam first on any character. I don't know.

Max sta rest into dex for warrior if im not mistaken.

If my memory is not tinted, base hp for a Kunark (lvl 60) warrior was 1800 hp + sta x 6.

I would put as much points as possible in stamina.

Will do, thanks for the input

My favorite classes right now are the mage and necro, and I thought about tryin an enchanter.

I was a warrior for 7 years with no alts back in the day, Dark Elf - stopped after we killed Quarm. But I was like 20 years old and didn't have a clue about "stats" in an mmo. I'd like to redo him, but melee seem so darn gear dependent.

For tanks it's STA first, but really STA is worthless for INT casters. Put your points into INT first and load up on +HP gear. You'll end up with at least 100HP/Mana more than a caster who goes all STA. My erudite necro with max INT and HP gear has 125+hp more than a DE guildie necro who went all STA in the same-tier gear.

What about AC for warriors?

It still garbage? Like, would you rather have 10 ac or 7 stam?

You'll want both [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Complete Heal will restore 5,000 HP if I'm not mistaken, so you'll want as much HP as you can possibly get and more AC to help it go further.

*Edit: on the low-end, building a char, you don't really get the option - so go for AC gear to help mitigate before you'll be grouping with clerics who can CHeal you.

Well, I mean - Take the Crafted Legs for instance. 14 ac and 1 str

Or, I can get the feathered leggings, 4 ac, 7 sta

I was once told that 1 AC is basically equal to 10hp at level 50. I don't know if that's exactly how it works on P99 yet but I've followed the rule regardless since I heard it and it seems to have worked out. I haven't really worried about it too much since I started getting Indicolite pieces.

So supposedly,
10 AC = 100hp
7 Stamina = 42hp

But someone out there has probably already parsed some fights and has some exact info for us.
