Enchanter atribute point allocation

[tefog]

Starting a chanter, which race and where should i put my attribute points in? Please give me some input.

I would suggest going erudite because their starting intel is so high. Then just pump every single point into stamina. Int is a stat you can raise easily but stamina isn't.

Could be wrong though, but that sounds about right. Someone else might be better suited for this question.

+3 str
+7 wis
the rest in agi

lol at str/wis/agi. I dont know the correct choice for an ench, but I know relevant stats are cha/int/sta

I would go human all points in sta. yes im serious, PVP means you need HP and + for when charm breaks.

Erudite from a pure stat standpoint is the best. Gives you the highest amount of Int + Cha (197 total) without any additions. High Elves get the second best Int + Cha (192). Stam is generally useful, but its a little more complicated for an Enc then other int casters.

Int casters get pretty terrible Sta returns, +25 sta at creation will give you ~50 more hp at level 60. If you were to give yourself +25 cha at creation, then once you hit ~200int (easy) that means if you also want to have a servicable cha for charming thats 25 fewer points you need to gear yourself with (maxing Cha or Int independently is easy, but maxing both is not as easy).

I can't specifically remember why, I just know I once read something that made me think "huh, if I ever make a enchanter I should go Dark Elf". Can't remember if it was because of an exclusive quest or something, however.

Edit:

I'm bored at work so I'll be back with some information. basically trying to figure out which stat (cha or int) can be maxed using the fewest number items.

Dark Elves can hide, which is kinda useful for an enchanter. Also, I think they can do the Stein of Moggok quest a little earlier than other enchanters; level 8 instead of 12 when enchanters get illusion: dark elf. (I play a dark elf enchanter).

These are the notes I took while prowling the p99 wiki. I'm not going to pretty up the list, just a list of items and how much int/cha they get. From looking at it, its possible to get +int in more slots then it is to get +cha. But there are some slots where you can get a massive amount of +cha (dual crude steins for +30 total cha).

Thanks Zinyen, hide is very useful if you don't have a goblin ghadazi ring (the one with instant click invis to animals) because you can use it to manually break charm without having to use a spell gem for invis (hide to break charm, mez, and then do whatever).

If/when i go to make an enchanter, I'll go Dark Elf with +25 cha, +5 sta. The decision to go DE is more based on me just not wanting to play an Erudite then anything else. I like to optimize, but I'm not 100% min-max. If I were going for the absolutely most optimal setup, I'd go +25cha/+5int Erudite (same hp as a 25cha/5sta Delf) to allow me to make the fewest item swaps possible to go from Charming mode to Grouping mode.

This is just me personally.
Edit: In a side note, I don't think anyone would ever truly regret going full sta.

Okay well I just played around with the numbers.

Depending on how you mix your armor, going +25 cha you can get the following stats for a DE or Erudite. Add 5 to the int totals if you decide to put the last 5 points in there.

DE: 203int/198cha
Erudite: 211int/208cha

At 60 you'll have a +21int buff and +50cha buff you can cast on yourself giving
DE: 224int/248cha
Eru: 235int/258cha(capped to 255).

This gives you room to play with your equipment to get some more +hp/+sta in slots since you don't need all of that extra int. You can super easily take out 7cha from your ringer and 5int from your other finger to get yourself +10ac +110hp (way more benefit then you'd get out of +25 sta at creation as a int caster) and then up the cha elsewhere by taking away int.

that looks pretty good
