So here I am, dead again, and could sure use some kindly advice from some of you warriors that know a lot more than I do - and I'm thinkin that's probably most of you.
Anyway, here's my situation - as briefly as I can:
I've just trained my old Lumberjack/Fletcher in the art of Bushido - just 'cause he hasn't got to play in such a long time (he's been sort of sleeping for the best part of the last 9 yrs or so). Oh btw, before he "retired" he found a tree that would give him 600 logs on a regular basis. Back then, that was pretty kewl...
Anyway, here's where I've got him now:
Swords 120
Bushide 120
Parrying 120
Healing 115
Anatomy 115
Tactics 107
Chivalry 23
His Str/Dex/Int are: 124/124/33
He wears a full 70's suit.
His ring is Str +7, Dex +7, HCI 13%, DI 30%
His bracelet is Dex +6, Int +6, EnhPot 20%
He also carrys a Totem HPR 2, LMC 10
I know, right now you're probably saying "So what's the problem" - so here it is:
I'm trying to get the last 3 dots to his Honor by killing Balrons in Fan Dancer Lvl 3, and it's not going well at all. As it stands now, it's Balrons 5 me 1 - and that's the problem.
Please keep in mind as you're mentally preparing to rip me a new one --- I'm an old bard/mage player and this char is my first "dexer" as it were. It's not like I've come here lookin for freebie advice before I go in - I've been in and things just aren't going as I would like. 1 Balron 5 deaths, I'm not pleased.
He's tried a Soul Seeker against my better judgement ( since I read one post where the guy said he kicked their but with it) ... Didn't do the job.
I've tried my 500k twink ( HML 57, HD 44, DCI 6%, FC1, DI 55%) thinking that should kick his silver butt, but he kicked mine again.
So, give me a hand here. I'm using the famous combo I've read about - Confidence/Lightning Strike ( which served me well till I "advanced" to Balrons), but the end result of all of this is: YOU ARE DEAD...
I have access to several SoulStones and other players on the account that have a variety of high skills... (just thought I'd thro that in).
Give me some veteran hints pls.....
