Lost

[eeky]

I quit this character years ago because I messed him up so now I need to fix him.
I want to pick my own boxes all the way to cap and I dislike getting hit.. I'd like to do GoS but I don't see that really happening. Anyways I have no idea what to do at this point and would appreciate any suggestions.
THanks

The island is actually Hell.

[NocturnalRob]

It went on about 3 seasons too long.

I never watched one episode but watched the last one for the hell of it and was glad I didn't watch any of the other eps.

[DaCapn]

I thought the island was more like purgatory?

Pipe dream... rogues get redux, thus they get hit. Locksmith rogues dedicate about 1/3 to 1/4 of their overall available TPs to lockpicking, making that even worse. The two options are to go full blown stealth, or go full blown open attack build. Picking your own boxes all the way to cap... requires 3x pick/disarm at some point... and you failed to list a race for your rogue.

[Asha]

I'm betting Delf, looking at the stats.

When you say that all I can think is a new porn category.

Half elf. Picking is a must otherwise I'd just go ahead and be a ranger. What are the pro's and cons of open vs stealth build 60+?

Shadow Mastery smastery 4
Surge of Strength surge 5

even with 3x in hiding I keep falling out of stealth when I fire my bow, a lot. Also not many one shot kills going for the eyes which at this point even if the critter is 3 lvls over me I'd think.

[Asha]

Stealth build you would get hit less since you'd be hidden and can vanish. You're going to get hit a lot in open build. Both builds I'd get into plate if I were you.
Also stick with ranged weaps too. Cheaper for picking and the perception is handy both ways.

[eeky]

Hard decision. I guess with stealth I wouldn't need spells all the time which is a huge plus but even 3x hiding now I'm always falling out of stealth when I fire my bow. What changes do you think I should make and what should I aim for?

[DaCapn]

For a good 10 more levels you can 2x picking skills + lores and still pick over your head. I'd have trouble with a stronghold box here and there in the late 60's that way. That's about the time when 3x picking/disarm is needed to be assured that you can pick your own boxes.
