Im a bit low on gold, but i put together the spellweaving dexxer on the crunk lol, managed to get a cheap spellweaving III and the reaper does insane damage on its own with a level 6 focus. I think once i get the template ironed out 100% and some gold liquidated so i can put more into the gear itll be super super good. Im VERY happy with the idea here.
Two things i noticed, and they are big things.
Firstly, the reaper takes 5 control slots, forcing you to be on foot. I am considering moving to gargoyle to counter this. A definate plus to this especially on atlantic is that gargoyle gear is super cheap.
Secondly, casting the reaper for some odd reason removes your weapon unless its channeling. :/ Simple re-arm fixes, but still, super annoying and forces you to lose your position to cast the tree if the fight goes on enough to where the previous tree dies or times out.
Heres the temp I am considering (I have all the skills, training is all done, its a mater of just figuring out right ones and soulstoning)
120 Swords (or throwing if garg but the reaper is stationary so might as well toe to toe monsters and not kite around reaper)
120 Tactics
120 Spellweaving (mastery here)
120 Parrying
120 Chivalry
120 ???
Options for ???
Maybe Bushido, but would be forced into a 2 hander due to parry mechanics
Maybe Anatomy, Since I would rely on a leech effect of some kind seems the little base extra damage is poor choice
Maybe Necromancy, and take up vamp form for leech (would cut life leech/stamina leech from the weapon, allowing for fc1 or something)
Suggestions welcome!
So yeah, stat wise:
125 STR
125 DEX
10 INT
LOTS of mana and stam stat increases in the gear. Although Im not sure what max SSI on a broadsword/longsword would be in terms of minimizing dex, i need to look it up somehow, but whatever would be subtracted would go into int, Im sure 211 dex is overkill with a 1 hander lol. Total Stat noob here.
Total Suit Mods would look like:
70/70/70/70/70
DCI/HCI 45 with divine fury modification
100 Damage Increase
4/6 Casting
40 LMC if going med 55LMC if going studded/bone
SSI to max swing speed (whatever that ends up being with a 1 hander)
As much mana/stam as i can cram in
Any thoughts on any of what I said? Always room to improve, thats why UO rocks.
