I think this discussion was brought up before, but never answered. I had always heard 4 for fulls, 8 for doubles. That may have changed?

[Scott]

It's 15 for doubles to work off the spell hinderence.... right?

[Bobmuhthol]

100s - 0% hinderance
400s - 0% hinderance
700s - 2% hinderance, 6 ranks

You need 8 ranks to be trained for double anyway.

1x HP? yuck. Your gonna have some harsh mana problems unless your a COL member (in which case, your gonna havta deal with finding outside spell help for DS boosts).

As for hunting areas, try the morphs.

[Shalla]

You're a shield and weapon user edaarin?

Is the info you provided before or after re-allocation?

What is your casting strength?

His DS sucked with a runestaff. 1x HP is fine for now, it's like 180 mana or something. I'm just playing the character for shits and giggles, it's my brother's really, and that's how he redid the training after I played around with it.

Casting strength is like 283? I was trying FI in the Skull Temple, but that sucked because I wound up expending around 480 mana to go from belled to fried. He does okay in Illoke using DC, but gets ruined by the stone fists.

I think this discussion was brought up before, but never answered. I had always heard 4 for fulls, 8 for doubles. That may have changed? I have 8 armor ranks and still have a 2% spell hinderance wearing glaes studded doubles. I still haven't figured out how many ranks would remove the hinderance or if it'll always be there.

[Syberus]

It will always be there. I'm a Sword/Shield user as well.. Lets see CS is just a shade under 450 at 91. As far as hunting.. at 54 you can do the glacier in Illistim, or stronghold maybe.. perhaps just the mastiffs until you get a bit older. You can still do seekers.. but they're a bit rare and you may find yourself getting hit by the cold before you get fried. Teras has a bunch of options for you as well.
Training wise.. aside from the Singling HP ( I would suggest 1.5x or higher if you can fit it) it looks pretty good. Lots of lores.. which is all fine and dandy I guess, though I don't see much use for them currently, I guess we'll find out how much necro lore is needed with AD coming out next.

[GSLeloo]

At 54 I hunt either the Glacier and the morphs or slush, or I hunt the forest and trolls, vipers, and boars. Both in Illistim.

[AnticorRifling]

Hunt the forest, it's older than the glaicer and easier. Just use ewave on the boars to keep them from charging and if you stay light you shouldn't have to worry about the snake spit.

[AnticorRifling]

8 ranks for spell hinderance in doubles
15 ranks for man. hinderance in doubles

8 should be all you need.
