Provocation! Anyone into it?

[temu]

Check out my new provo character:

Archery 120.0
Discordance 120.0
Musicianship 120.0
Provocation 120.0
Magery 115.0
Tactics 100.0
Chivalry 60.0

So, where do provo characters really shine? Champ spawns are eh, ok I suppose, but it seems like things die too quickly for it to make a whole lot of difference. I was thinking doom. Do the dark fathers pull you in if provo'd mobs hit them? Some hunting suggestions would be great!

Im not sure why you have magery? you should do 60 neco and 60 ss or 100 anatomy

you can go into wraith form and leech mana with armor ignore

I'm with the no magery group. Unless you were going to use EVs and drain all your mana.

 

[cholupa]

why do you have both magery and chivalry?

 

[temu]

Magery was just for invising, gates, heals, cures.. but I might ditch it for something else like necro I suppose

 

[cholupa]

maybe try 120 chiv and carry invis pots?

I don't think anything about this template will do well at all at anything. Making a 4/6 chiv template with the stamina to be effective on an archer will be expensive too.

My suggestion would be drop archery, drop tactics, drop chiv and do this:
120 Magery
120 Mystic
120 Focus
120 Music
120 Provoke
120 Discord

Use a -mage weapon magical shortbows configured to what you're fighting and figure out the swing speed-stamina to hit max swing. Magery gear will be cheaper and you'll have a great amount of mana to use bard spellsongs while your RC tanks what you're fighting. Swap provoke out for spellweaving and you have a nice boss fighting template.

I leech plenty of mana with it on my weapon...

Thanks! It's been really fun to experiment with different templates.

You don't need to alter your template that much. I too would advise switching magery out though. I'd probably take chiv to 100, tactics to 120, and add 60 anatomy for damage. Just remember you don't have to have elite gear or a perfect template to have fun.
