Archery Template Suggestions

[DreadLord Lestat]

I have an old bard/archer that I am looking to update and I am not sure how I want to go on this.

Archery - 111.9 ate 120 scroll
Tactics - 110
Chivalry - 100
Music - 110 ate 120 scroll
Discord 102.3 ate 120 scroll
Peace 110 ate 120 scroll
Focus 75.8

I am open to just about any suggestions other than bushido.

 

[Lord GOD(GOD)]

I'd drop Peace and Focus.

I'd pick up Heal and Anat, Necro and SS (most likely), or some combination of those and/or Resist.

120 the Bard skills for their Mastery.

 

[Merlin]

Similar to above, I'd replace Peace and Focus with Healing and Anatomy. Bring Music and Disco up to Legendary for the bonuses.

 

[Zalan]

I presently have:

120 Archery
120 Tac
120 Ana
120 Chivalry
120 Heal
100 SS
20 Necro

120 Arch
120 Tac
120 Ana
120 SW
120 Chivalry
100 Ss
20 Necro

 

[CorwinXX]

I presently have:

Is SW for DA?
What SW spells do you use often?

 

[Zalan]

I used spellweaving primarily for utility. Gift of Renewal for Heal. Attunement when working spawns. Natures Fury is good for clearing low level spawn, and distracting Greater Dragons while getting shots off. Gift of Life is good in situational uses. Ethereal Voyage is good for sneaking past mobs, and getting back to your body if you die. Dryads Allure is good depending on the Humanoids in the area. I would like to say WoD, but the bows normally fast enough so I never use it. Summon Fey also works as quick distraction for monsters to. If your Focus is high enough you can summon 5 at once.

When I say distraction its for something else the mobs can attack instead of me.

Possible stupid question, what do you use the necromancy for? I'm assuming you have +necro on gear to get to a certain number. Are you actually getting it to 99 for VE?

 

[Max Blackoak]

to cast and maintain wraithform (gives mana leech)

 

[Chaim]

ahh.

So what are the preferred weapon mods now? been away almost 2 years.

 

[Max Blackoak]

should still be the same

 

[Merlin]

You don't need necromancy on your actual template to get into wraith form.

If you get one of the +necro books, some jewelery and that talisman... you can make a macro to throw those on, have some regs on you, cast wraith form, and then switch back to your main suit.

You would be better served having SS on your suit so you can leach back more mana once in wraith form.
