[Template] Salvaging an unfinished Siege character.

[Nereus]

Visited Siege recently for the first time in at least several hundred years.
Have an unfinished character with some gm level skills and random others.
No idea what the plan was, is, or should be going forward...

​

100.0 Anatomy​

_61.0 Discordance​

100.0 Hiding​

_67.8 Magery​

100.0 Musicianship​

_36.1 Ninjitsu​

_55.1 Peacemaking​

100.0 Stealth​

100.0 Tactics​

So basically a Bard Ninja in progress.
What from above is currently useful on Siege?
Appreciate any thoughts on what might be salvageable.

it all depends on what you're looking to do. PvP? PvM? The way it is now it's pretty useless

Decide if you want a stealthy ninja, or a bard. if you want a BArd, stone/turn down the fighting skills and add provoke, med, eval. if you want a fighter Drop/stone the bard/Magery and add a weapon skill and any complimentary things, but what you essentially have there is what I like to call a soulstone character, which doesn't work on siege with one Character slot. you need to drop about half of those off and build from there, As Max said, depending on what you want to do.

In case you don´t know what Victim means by "stone".
You can put the skills you don´t want to use for now on soulstones. That way you can save the skills for future templates.
Soulstone tokens can be bought by players or in the ingame EA store. If you do buy from players, make sure you buy the tokens and not the shiny stones with asian looking markings on them because those are already claimed and since the soulstones are account bound you can´t use them.

Thanks all for the ideas. Wish there was a Test Center for Siege ruleset.

Will be just the one character. Guess looking for mainly PvM, though PvP probably unavoidable.
If group play is anything here would like to be able to add to that. So maybe leaning towards Bardish template. Not set on anything yet.

If Stealth is more viable here than on main shards, i.e. not revealed by everything, maybe could make a go with a Ninja style dexxer.
Fencing/Macing have options with Ninjitsu and Stealth. Is Swords the dominant PvP weapon type here also?

For some reason I was under the impression that soulstones were not a thing on Siege.
If they are useable, then I assume most full-time residents would have an extensive skill library saved up[?].
Interested to hear how players manage the single character slot restriction.

Here is my Library. There a people with a lot more than that. They have all skills at several different levels to accomodate mutiple template variations.

Nereus, Max Blackoak has posted lots of PvM templates on Siege discord if you want to have a look at them to help you decide what you want to do with your character. The info to join the discord is in a sticky at the top of this page. Welcome back to Siege.
