Couple of questions.

1. Do Warcries go off of total inf(0-100) or by inf bonus? And what's a good bonus to aim for?

2. I swing a katana, but should I try to raise my dex to get the added weighting from dexterity? Does that really make a difference?

3. I will probably not play this guy to cap, since I've never capped anything. But, should I place his stats to maximize around like 60 or so, and then fixstat if needed, or set for max growth?

I always say to plan your stats more for cap even if you don't reach it any time soon if ever. There are better things to be spending your bps/silvers on then a fixstat. And knowing better you'd likely regret it later if you put yourself in a position to where you'd want to buy one. Another thing to consider is that even if you don't cap you will still probably want the extra TD that you'd have from better stats, they do make a noticeable difference. If you need more STR you can always tank INT all the way down and shave some off of INF. INF is great for warcries but as an Erithian you get a good bonus there, so, if your INF is 80-90 instead of 100 at cap you won't really be hurting yourself.

Training looks good. What society are you in, GoS? And why the FA?

Dex is always nice for the phantom weighting and the lower RTs. I wouldn't sacrifice other stats too heavily to max it early though. I'd prolly drop those prime stats down a bit as they grow so darn fast.

I always have the opposite suggestion than to aim for cap for most people.

The game is about having fun, optimize your character to where you'll have the most fun, if you've played the game for 15 years or whatever and you've yet to cap a character, don't set yourself up for it now. Infact Jeril you even said it yourself, having 80-90 at cap instead of 100 won't really hurt you, same goes for every stat, so optimize for some reasonable like 60, and then some of your stats won't be 100 at cap, but that's okay.

This is what I have at the moment..

IT 90
AG 100
IF 96
wi 91

Tell me if I'm wrong, but I don't think a shitty aura stat would hurt me since I'm in GoS.
with basic spells, no scrolls or anything I only get warded in camps about once every 70-100 critters. Which is just me getting overwelmed, and missing a caster enter the room.

At lvl 14 my AS as is with updated stats

You swing a narrow-bladed pale blue katana at a velnalin!
AS: +217 vs DS: +10 with AvD: +39 + 20 + d80 roll: +76 = +342
... and hit for 164 points of damage!
Hard slash to the velnalin's side!
Left arm no longer available for use.
The velnalin groans loudly as he slumps to the ground and cradles his wounded left foreleg.
The velnalin lets out a final agonized sigh and dies.


I tried to get a read on my DS in just FGB, But I evaded every attack in defensive for 10 minutes and gave up.

the FA is just to eat herbs quicker.. I'm actually stopping at 10 ranks I believe and starting to get up to 1x on survival, or I'll save up and try to .5 ambushing or something like that.

Any additional input is appreciated.

[Jeril]

The terrible aura might not be hurting you now but you'll feel it as you level up and the creatures CS gets higher. Might not be so bad depending on how high you get though. I'd suggest asking people at various levels to see what kind of CS they face from grim.

[Gelston]

What society did you join? If CoL you'll definitely want higher aura.

THATS WHAT I GET FOR READING THE FIRST POST IN DEPTH AND SKIMMING THROUGH HIS LAST.

ok, lowered INT and INF a bit, raised my AUR up about 20.. Don't have anything too bad.. We'll see how it goes.. I can always spell tank in camps.. BUT I think I'm just gonna master and then work on bounties for Oh, 60-70 levels or so.. With a camp tossed in here or there..
