Been gone a long time and trying out my old bard that I abandoned years ago and some of the newer stuff like spellweaving, need some suggestions and have a couple stupid questions. Probably more caster than bard now that I think about it.
Trying out a couple builds to see what works, currently have:
Music 88
Provo 83
Disco 72
Peace 81
Spellweaving 65
Med 80
Focus 80 (Will drop once other skills are higher)
I'm somewhat poor so 120's are out of the question for now. Most are scrolled to 110. I wanted to try SW for the no reagents angle. I have a nice 70's 100% LRC suit on my mage/necro but wanted to see if I could manage without falling back on magery but the lack of a heal and cure is making it difficult, didn't realize the SW heal was on such a massive cooldown. I was going to keep magery for the summons too but I like the SW bugs/imps better so far, they work well on discorded stuff.
So first question: Is this doable? Been playing around with it at the ilshnar titan/cyclops area and it seems to work well, at least until a paragon titan spawns and I have to run away screaming. Haven't tried much against heavier casting mobs yet.
The suit I'm wearing now is:
Physical61
Fire 64
Cold 71
Poison 55
Energy 75
FC 3
FCR 6
SDI 52
LMC 49
MR 8
-First stupid question: Does SDI affect SW? I can't seem to find an answer to that.
-From what I gather SW is capped at 4/6. Where can I pick up the last FC? I have one each from ring. bracelet and book but don't know where else to get the last point. As I said I'm 'po so no 10m artifacts for me.
-Need something for healing curing beyond potions, was thinking of chiv at say 40ish for the heal and cure (and recall)? Not sure if the heal amount is skill or fame based. Also how much does the cure hurt at max fame? Or just stick to potions?
-Was thinking of dropping peace entirely as it doesn't seem to work well with provocation and 100 points for a "Oh crap" button seems a bit much, also a peace just means that much longer before I can prov/disc again. Resist maybe? Or any other suggestions
-Is SW gimped without a focus? Maybe it gets better at 100 skill but trying to find anyone to make one at 60ish got too frustrating to bother.
-Any other suggestions?
