Nospells.

Greetings Aranockians.

Seems ive neglected to post anything here for way to long.

Ive ben around aranock for the past 2 years i think. On off alot. MoA is a game that i just cant seem to slip away from (That meant in a very positive way ofcourse).

Whenever the bigger games like WoW, Diablo, SWTOR etc becomes a tad boring i allways tend to find my way back to this wonderfull timeconsuming game.

I like to think its becaus of the wonderfull content but when it comes Down to it i think i just like to play around with numbers and the builds really really lets one play with numbers.

Anyways here i am and my toons in game ranges from

Pawn - Hera
Wyrmsbane - Arch Temp
Nospell - Seyan
Slacks - Merc

More may follow as i tend to get crazy ideas.

Welcome!!

Do you really have spells or are you just playing with my mind?

Welcome (back).

Well when i made my temp i wanted to try out not using spells at all..

It lasted for a while doing town quests but frankly.. Its imposible. You need to be a late srg major to do U1 without spells otherwise the Ratling king will just eat you..

It's not "impossible" just, the game is designed to be balanced around a templar using his own spells. Early game, they lack. Late game, they're at a slightly gimped status.

If you go with absolutely no spells from yourself or others, you're just going to be slightly weaker. You'll pent lower levels, do quests at later levels, and the game might feel really sluggish for you.

Possible, just not recommended

Posible in the terms of slowy torturing yourself to stop playing the game.

Also i selected an axe on the champ and it seems like it has a slightly lower defensive value than the Th skills?!

Based on a trusted source whom I knew that has combat code for Aranock, Axe does NOTHING worse than Two-hand. Combat wise, Axe is far superior - it does more damage and vic crits are sick. We could find no evidence that axe had less parry value than two hand. I still, however, have yet to check h2h vs th/axe in terms of that. I keep forgetting to spend some time and figure that one out.

The added stats on FoH seem like they would add parry but I don't know the facts. Would be an interesting study.
