Dexing

Are dexers viable in pvp anymore? Anyone mind giving me a run down of the popular dexer templates?? :D :D Say for someone who hasn't played in a couple years.

Just follow these simple steps in any template arrangement you wish.
1. Dismount
2. Bleed
3. Remount (while they're bleeding)
4. Disarm
5. AI(s) while you use the rest of your template also (All Kill, Pixies, etc...)

While I tend to play and favor a mage for PvP the answer to your question is yes, very much so. As for templates someone else can probably give you a much better answer than me.

With the 300 points needed for mana reduction there are a few viable templates. Archer/fencer, bok/DS dexxers and........ well thats all I ever see.

FYI, you don't NEED the -10 mana reduction to make viable templates.

Basically if you cant stun and/or dismount on a dexxer, its crap.

1) What is wrong with the 5 mana bump at 200 of the required points? No way anyone can make me believe that the other 5 mana lost is a game-changer for any template.

2) Correct me if I am wrong but wanst the whole JOAT counting as 2/3 of the required points an un-intended side effect so never really valid in the first place?
I mean if the 10 mana bump was so epically crucial that people are now saying whole templates are destroyed could it really have been designed on purpose needing only 100 other real skill points to make it work? Thats plain silly. Every warrior template(the templates that it was originally designed for btw)has at least 100 of the required points.

So I take it bushido and ninjitsu are good dexing templates, how about chivalry, poisoning, and what about a weapon skill, which skills are good now? Last I played every dexer was an archer, is this still the case?

My favorite dexxer of all time was my 4/6 macer. It is now dead, along with my necro dexxer. They nerfed the variety of temps right out of the game.

Yea.. necro dexers are definitely dead now.

Tried playing my necro archer on Chessy last night for the first time in about 6 months and that didn't go so well.

Time to put that char back on top of a dread mare I guess....
