Starting Enchanter need help please :)

[Omnimorph]

I tested it last night, at 46, 8sta gave me a whopping 19hp.

A good enchanter will have different pieces of gear to make up for inadequacies in their stats. I currently have a completely int based gear set (mostly for tradeskilling if i'm being honest) as well as a cha based gear set for charming. When exping i usually use a mix of both. I also have a set of hp gear (BS neck, 55hp rings etc) for raids as getting beat on isn't fun.

Also... for the person who said to put the points in strength (lol btw) i have a set of gear just for strength too [You must be logged in to view images.

If you're like me and have various gear sets for whatever you're doing, starting points are of less importance [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Exactly. The need for multiple sets of gear will slowly beome less important as more content in released but in classic this is the only way to do it for an enchanter regardless of your starting stats.

Also regarding str, don't forget that sapphire jewelty gives int+str. The platinum necklace gives +7, the earrings give +2 or +4 depending on which you choose. Also there are numerous places where you can get weight reduction bags.

It beats being able to change up gear for special situations than to gimp your character for the 90% of the time that you aren't encumbered. Berserker buff + Earth elemental illusion is what I use if I'm really encumbered.

And finally. If you are killing mobs for loot, you know you can avoid the fine steel and instead use all your bag slots for the items that stack. Pages, words, runes and gems. You can make way more money with partial stacks of these items then a hand full of fine steel or bronze and you don't get encumbered in the process. This goes for all int-casters.

So, 25 extra sta at character creation will give roughly 60hp at that level.

Leet!

In my experience, whenever I see posts like this, my most immediate thought is the person ran out of things to say and/or are trying to get the last word in, and/or "look cool."

But 25 extra int or cha points gives even less than that. You can cap you int/char in your 40s or even level one if its going to be a twink like the OP said. Still cant cap stamina with any gear combination to put you at the soft stat cap currently.

See the above statement.

Guineapig brings out a very valid question however and it would be nice to get a Dev to confirm it
