Confused Cleric

[Rockslyde]

So Here's my situation. I've gone through the threads, and am massively confused. I know the old GS3 system by heart, as a rogue. Looking at the new system, I'm so confused. I'm doing alright so far just beating stuff up, but my spells are ineffectual.

Age: 0 Expr: 41883 Level: 6
Normal (Bonus) ... Enhanced (Bonus)
Strength (STR): 65 (22) ... 65 (22)
Constitution (CON): 71 (20) ... 71 (20)
Dexterity (DEX): 91 (15) ... 91 (15)
Agility (AGI): 86 (13) ... 86 (13)
Discipline (DIS): 65 (7) ... 65 (7)
Aura (AUR): 83 (11) ... 83 (11)
Logic (LOG): 65 (2) ... 65 (2)
Intuition (INT): 51 (0) ... 51 (0)
Wisdom (WIS): 36 (-7) ... 36 (-7)
Influence (INF): 75 (17) ... 75 (17)
Mana: 20 Silver: 0

those stat numbers are based off a stat maximizer program i found on the web maximized for level 100. (I got to 99 with my rogue, so i want to at least get to 100 with this toon)

at level 6), your current skill bonuses and ranks (including all modifiers) are:

Giantman cleric. Am i even close to being on the right training path? I'm fine with melee hunting right now, but want to be able to rez and rescure later on.

and when did clerics become pures?

[BriarFox]

You're doing fine, but what's killing you is that you've set your stats for max growth, which means that they're REALLY low right now.

For your first 30 days, set you stats for max STR, train in THW, use a claid, and smash things. Get to as high a level as you can, then switch to the build you want to keep and fix your stats for the growth you want. It'll make things a lot easier on you.

Oh yeah my 30 days is up tommorow, i meant to mention that

I think you'll have an easier time of it if you reroll. You can make level six in about six hours of playing. If you don't want to, though, just tough it out, use mass spells and Strength, and do your best. You'll have to underhunt for a good long while.

[Rockslyde]

Sounds good, i just haven't had a chance to play much, for my 30 days that's why i'm only level 6. I'm going to sleep on the reroll thought for now. As long as i'm at least headed in the right direction, i'm fine with a bit of a challenge. Makes life fun. I've been hunting the hell outta lesser shades, though i think i may try to move onto the grave yard. I went to look at Tsoran's map shoppe, and that seems to be taken down. Thank you very much for the advice, I'll let you know what happens.:medieval: :foshizzle:

[BriarFox]

You should be able to hunt rats until 10, if you have to.

[Rockslyde]

I'll never hunt rats again. I've made about 80k just from hunting lesser shades, and i don't mind hunting them at all.

halfway to lvl 19, primarly set on raising. Thoughts?

[Herachio]

Did you ever say what kind of cleric you wanted to be, not that you can't of course change it later on these days but in the short term what is it your planning to do. Swing, or cast?

[Kitsun]

If you intend on capping out and have limited time to play, I would definately not set stats for maximization at level 100. You can do bounties from the AG and earn plenty for a fixstat by the time you want one. There's no reason to suffer for perfection.

[username]

If you're planning to raise, be sure to get 24 Spiritual mana control ranks, I stopped there, but if you plan on using smite you may want to research it and keep training in it. Also, what armor are you planning on using, 8 ranks for doubles works fine for me but I'm also a shield/brawling pure-ish cleric.

[Rockslyde]

I was thinking of just sticking to doubles, no brawling just hoping to rescue if needed. haven't figured out the swing or cast. i'm still slightly used to clerics from back in the day.
