New Paladin convert from Warrior

How does 1620 work?

[Menos]

Been a paladin for years and years, and I still can't make the damn thing work. I know you pray some sort of multi-line prayer at certain drop spots in town, then cast 1620 at a corpse to send them back to that spot. Easier to just learn spirit guide.

Find a temple and recite a 4 line prayer to your deity. If you search through the forum you can find some more help on it. It may be a pain in the ass to set up if you don't know what you're doing but it's a great spell.

Go around and use the sense verb to find a spot attuned to a deity.

Recite around 5 lines of how you want to anchor to the spot with the name of the deity. The link above has examples.

With an lk'ed dead person in your group cast 1620 at them and the body goes to the set location. Then you can amunet to a cleric to go get them.

Good spell and worth using. Sometimes I'll send a corpse to town so that someone that couldn't get to the hunting area can then take over. I dislike the fogging sickness/randomness of 130 though.

There are two things that suck about the spell and it's not the spell itself.
One: Some areas have an 'anti-magic' area around them (Varunar and Bonespear being prime examples) that prevent the spell from working, so you have to drag them out of the area of influence.
Two: Their group (dead person) must be open, otherwise the spell won't work. Which sucks if you're trying to rescue an afker that got dc'd or whatever and their group is closed.
I ALWAYS keep an LK flask on my character at all times because of this spell. You'd be surprised how many people have not been paladin transported.

Anything, could a pally master gimme a hand on skill placement? should I be 1x spells or 1.5x what?

I believe most come in under 1x, actually.

[Jeril]

1x in spells is what most paladins do until they reach their spell goals, often enough its 1635 or 1640 then 120, 130, or 140 in the minor spirit, most I think only get 120 until post cap.

[Androidpk]

I don't see myself going above 1635/103 until cap.

[Gamdillo]

any other tweaks I can make? I'm still insta shift for points due to the convertion.

Get rid of that extra rank of Harness Power... 10 MTP's for 1 mana isn't worth it.

[Gamdillo]

soo keep everything at level pretty much?

[mgoddess]

Harness Power is really the only one that should stay at level... everything else looks good, at least to this paladin-player's eyes. :)

[MrMortimur]

All looks fine, next time you level you'll want to skip training in a spell...as you've currently doubled in spells one time...which is expensive. Just keep in mind future thresholds for skills so you remember to stop training in them.

[Androidpk]

1x PT training makes me sad.
