Finally settled on a build for awhile

[Crash187]

I like a variety of ways to hunt and after seeing all the advice on builds I went with this option. I'll pick lores up to 1x soon. He's a member of voln so I'm mainly hunting undead. I can use UAC, bolt, or just 502 (dual open hand channel) everything to death. It keeps the monotony down which is what kills me as a player.

Looking pretty good.

Interesting let me know how your DS does. with dual open hands.

[Crash187]

So far it's about 10-20 less than when holding a runestaff in defensive. Keep in mind I have my ranger keep mobility and colors on him but other than that it's all self spelled.

Open hands
A zombie tries to bite you!
AS: +202 vs DS: +278 with AvD: +34 + d100 roll: +82 = +40
A clean miss.

Runestaff in hand
A zombie tries to bite you!
AS: +202 vs DS: +296 with AvD: +34 + d100 roll: +16 = -44
A clean miss.

Try adding one rank of TWC, pretty sure you will see a very slight (+5?) bonus to your DS. Plus it will allow you, open handed, to parry attacks.

Also, not sure going with 0 points in CMAN is the best way to use UAC. Though, if you're primarily hunting with bolts, it probably doesn't matter much.

[Crash187]

I'll mostly be bolting and using 502 in the future, right now I've not had any issues with my UAF being too low by not having CM.
