Voln Fu Wizard

[Sile]

Viable, or will thier Fu be too weak.

I'm working on a young halfling mage right now and thinking it may fun to switch over before my 30 days is up.

[Revial]

I'm going to say it's viable but not a very wise decision. Just go warmage path and use a shield unless you throw.

[Sile]

Yeah been there, bought the tshirt.

Just looking for something I haven't tried out.

[Anebriated]

Id say it would be viable and done right would probably be very lethal. fu with 1 second RTs is just sexy.

[Revial]

Yeah been there, bought the tshirt.

Just looking for something I haven't tried out.

I'm not sayin' roll up as a warmage, I'm saying to go a similar route as you would a warmage. Shield and Brawling instead of THW and Edged.

[Sile]

I'm not sayin' roll up as a warmage, I'm saying to go a similar route as you would a warmage. Shield and Brawling instead of THW and Edged.

Oh yeah that makes sense.

Basically path would be

1x shield
1x brawl
2x percept
2x spell
1x physical
1.5x lore (thinking earth for stone skin)
1x Harness power

so 31/51

Will fill in aux skills with extra points

[Revial]

Hm, maybe it's just me but I'd go 1x in Perception. Unless it directly affects your Voln Fu. If so, then I'll STFU.

[Anebriated]

I would definitely get a little bit of air lore to drop 1 sec off your rt. kick is 4 second base and 2 sec with haste.

[Sile]

Don't mage haste start at -3 rt?

Tonis starts at -2 rt though, I know that.

[Sile]

Also, just came to mind....

Stone Fist would be a great setup if my mb is too low. Well on corporel undead.

[Drew]

I've heard it rules early on but near cap it can tail off. You can always fixskill out of it if you make it that far and that's true.

That works, I'm never going to hit cap on Sile, or at least not for a long time, So I doubt cap would be an issue on my mage.

[Anebriated]

Theres minimal undead near cap anyway

Ok just got the first punch. Don't have my agi high for mb bonus, but here is a clip of it in action.

Average 5-6 kicks to kill a zombie, not bad considering it takes me about 4-5 casts with bolts at my current lvl.

[IorakeWarhammer]

should use tremor instead of e-wave. one less mana and you can get multiple knockdowns. would that be viable? also.. you could kick it like 2-3 times then use a firebolt to mix it up. might reduce hunting time

[Rallorick]

could this build be adjusted to do a ranged/voln fu option? I was thinking about giving that an idea... I mean shield costs pretty similar to ranged weapons, so I guess it would work, but I wonder if it would be under powered to hunt at level.
