I just started playing after a long absent and was wondering and was experimenting and was wondering what skills i should keep bringing up and or drop..

skills:
fencing 120
anatomy 99.6 (not sure if i should drop to 80 or not)
healing 97.3 (same thought as anatomy)
tactics 86.1
Stealth 85.0
hiding 63.0
poisoning 58.7 (going to gm)
Ninjitsu (gm or legendary)


i heard stealth improves some ninjistu skills dmgs that why i ended up have stealth in hiding in the mix..

thanks and any tips would be helpfuls

You need at least 90 tactics. Your probably going to get better responses from more people in the warrior forum. I would up the hiding some but it depends on what your trying to do. I don't really play a ninja but poisoning is hot right now.

Anatomy & healing need to be 90 each (total), as to not have bandage slips. Might as well just take anatomy to 100 with equipment, simply because Anatomy gives a skill/2% bonus to base weapon damage (before DI), and an additional +5% on top of it if you're GM or better.

Granted, Healing, Anatomy, Stealth and Ninjitsu don't have to deal with the real/equipped issues that the weapon skill and Tactics do (though Ninja forms require you to keep that minimum skill on you to maintain form)

I just hit gm anatomy today and being that last time i played was 8th age im using a blade with 10 anatomy on it and healing is close to 100. I think once i can get together the funds im going to start searching for some armor with stealth and hiding bonuses so i can bring them down some as well.

Here is what My skills are at now atm any advice on changes or what not would be most helpful thxs again..

120 fencing
100 anatomy
97.4 healing
88.4 tactics
85 stealth
67.3 poison
63.1 hiding
54.3 ninjitsu

I been focusing on working poison up and get the pain out of the way hehe. Once again any helpful advice would be most helpful thxs again

Scrolls of Transcendence - lots and lots of scrolls of transcendence. IF you've not encountered these, they drop from champ spawns (0.6 to 1.0 value in Fel, 0.1 to 0.5 value all other facets, at the Fel 105 scroll drop rate), as well as the SA boss Navrey (3.0 skill points!) and in Felucca Treasure Map chests (varies by chest level - not present in all chests). They act as instant skill gain (get your GGS first, before using them)

Buy them for the two hard skills with no equipment bonuses possible and hold onto them, until the total skill you have on them for poison and hiding are what you have left to GM, then use them. For example, using 10.0 worth of Poison skill SoTs will raise you from 90 to 100.
