A Change of Tactics Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page

For a while I've been contemplating becoming a Demonlord. In fact when I first joined I originally wanted to be said class, when I first joined it was my aim. Now I was wondering peoples opinions. As they stand these are my stats:

STRENGTH 38 COST: 10207
AGILITY 30 COST: 2374
TOUGHNESS 30 COST: 2374
APPEARANCE 30 COST: 2374
CHARISMA 30 COST: 2374
REPUTATION 30 COST: 2374
PERCEPTION 34 COST: 4923
INTELLIGENCE 33 COST: 4102
KNOWLEDGE 33 COST: 4102

Would it be better for me to start from scratch and make an absorber designed to become demonlord, and give this account t osomeone who woants to play Gangster. Or whether it'd be better to gather my gear and simply build around being able to become one?

Now the reason I want to be an absorber with Dmeonlord is simple.

Stat reduction: 15% overall then on legendary it's even higher. And considering a legendary crossbow has -3% critical chance then it's easily possible, with an absorber, to give it positive critical.

Also the aspect of the dmeonlord that makes it tantalising is the fact it's easiness is an Aura, so it is possible to wield whatever you want, and still use a decent ranged weapon. Thus allowing elvish if I need a high agility + critical set up.

Anyway, as I was saying, what are people's views?

compare your stats to myself
a lvl 65 Act 2 Beastmaster Demonlord

STRENGTH 45
AGILITY 39
TOUGHNESS 38
APPEARANCE 37
CHARISMA 34
REPUTATION 34
PERCEPTION 41
INTELLIGENCE 42
KNOWLEDGE 42

the issue if any with Demonlord is finding heavy enough armour
while still getting decent bonuses to statistics etc from the armour
25/40/25 defence minimums for rank 5 tat restricts certain item choices

you will need high Intelligence + Knowledge and Strength (and level)
this can be achieved using jewelry (sets) but is a slow process
to find the needed pieces on quest or by merging

Elvish armour is itself a problem - negative defence mod
making it a task to find the right suffix + base item

however absorber act 2 arcana adds to %crit & Luck (i tihnk)

What I meant by this igor was that it'd let me use Elvish and have full Aura, letting mye use a elgendary heavy xbow of reaction, if Iever get one, with positive critical Tongue

By level 65 I reckon i could have similar stats

have you considered Hunter?
you could meet tattoo reqs WHILE wearing elvish / Light
and easily make a legendary hvy xbow of reaction have positive %

just a thought

im not arguing either way - just giving my view on demonlord
and yes - showing you that your stats arent disproportionate to mine in build

Nah I don't liek the Hunter. ultimately I ant to use the full opower of the Demonlord... however what i mean is, with the aura it's easier to use massive stat stuff, with legendary heavy xbow of reaction.... even if it nullifeis the other stats. Also my racial 5% added on will make it incredubly useful lol... I could use level 100 items at 85 Big Grin

Thing is Ilove playing a tank, hence my Gangster tattoo set. My aim was to go to Collector once I get my field vest of master.

but the aura thing was so that I oculd use good Evlish stuff for expos... when I need the stats
