  First level 5 Black Knight on server

As far as I could tell I am the first Level 5 Black Knight on this server

I acheived this at level 77

Black Knight
LEVEL 5 : helmet defence min 35, armour defence min 70, pants defence min 35

Heart of Darkness
LEVEL 5: 5000 PoP, 1 soulstone
Traits: All weapons hit rating+75

Power of Faith
LEVEL 5: 5000 PoP, 1 soulstone
Traits: chance for critical strike +30 %

Double strike
LEVEL 5: 22500 PoP, 2 soulstones
Traits : LUCK +6, additional 1 attacks with every weapon. HP +10 %

Apprentice of the Dark Side
LEVEL 5: 22500 PoP, 2 soulstones
Traits : experience +24 % (aura*)

Took me a lot of patience and stones but I've finally done it where I have setups to attack and expo properly.

Congratulations on getting level 5. But from the looks of THAT setup, it's strictly for defense Can you show us your attacking kit?

If that's it, then no offense, but it doesn't look like you can hit much o_0

Whoa, okay now for your expo setup i can see you hitting stuff. But is it possible to hit stuff with 106 agility? (plus tattoo bonus makes about 131 right?)

Still, nice job, now i just gotta make sure i ain't on the recieving end of that damned mace anytime soon XD

Thanks everyone

Nemaszis: I attack mainly gunners and don't really need as much agility for them, I just need rep to get through. Sometimes I don't use the good ring of misdemeanor+1 and use another titanium ring to get extra strength and toughness for the ones who have deadlier hits and higher defence. I also have a few other weapons I swap out depending on the target. If I attack a ranged user it can be trickier trying to get enough rep and agility, I have to be careful with them and am working on upgrading another armour piece that will help with that. a lot of people have been using high charisma defences too which typically mean I need more damage and strength so again agility no so much a factor. Several of my pieces can still be upgraded too so at least I know that I still have room to improve things here and there.

Perfect Corset (+1)
- defence increased by 1 for every 4 char levels

I don`t really want to think about merging something else right now but if I want extra hits with speed armour I`ll be trying to make a p+1 corset for the needed defence.

You might have some problems with that since perfect corset of speed (+1) looks like that(bonus defence depending on level and easiness not included):

Perfect Corset of Speed (+1)


Armour (Only for females)
Defence: 28
Effects: REPUTATION +10, APPEARANCE +19, additional 2 attacks with every weapon, chance for critical hit with guns -66 %
Requirements: LEVEL: 90, STRENGTH: 76, APPEARANCE: 44, CHARISMA: 46

it will be heavy like hell if you're going to merge something like that with prefix which adds defence(scaled or strengthened perhaps?)


EDIT@down: lol, my reading with comprehesion sucks at this hour, sorry xD

Posted by Hespera on 12-06-2009 at00:14:

 

That's one reason why I said I don't want to think about merging right now lol. I can try for legendary and/or I can try for prefix. It's not a priority right now. It would be nice to have some extra hits but I will be sacrificing agility for them.

I have absorber easiness and level easiness which will help. Maybe in another few level I start working on collecting the pieces. Right now I will just upgrade what I already have since I've been neglecting a few items.

Well done - that is some impressive work & patience.

I have a male BK on france & one of poland accounts, both on lvl3 tattoo, and the hardest thing I find with the tattoo is not just getting the defence, but also getting appearence high enough to equip better jewelry.

So a question to you & other BK's on the forum - do you think that it is "easier" (I use the term very loosely!) to make a better BK as a female or male?

And what vampire race do you think is the best for BK's?

Any thoughts.

In my opinion as I am one probably the best race would surely be Beastmaster with the use of SoB but I'm sure some people might say otherwise

As for gender hmm... well I suppose female could be a better advantage seeing as also things tend to be cheaper if they are for females only but I suppose the really good items for BK are unisex like the vest and the helmet but on the appearance front so far I'm a level 4 BK and at the moment I don't seem to have a problem with app but maybe thats just me and the fact that I'm not as high up as Hesp or some others but to me I'd say male/female Beastmaster

Posted by Hespera on 12-07-2009 at08:01:

 

I don't really know if I could say one gender is easier then the other. I use my skirt in defence and in attack but that because it has better defence then my shorts and reputation from the suffix. I seem to do ok for expo and don't wear any female only gear for them. I think males have it easier to get reputation which is handy in attack. Probably overall they are about the same.

As for a better race...hmmm. I'm pretty happy as an absorber BK. The easiness made it possible to wear my vest and I like the arcana. Beastmaster 's extra hit would be nice but I can live without it.
