New player help

[Piccolo(UO:R)]

Hi guys.
Just wondering if i could get a bit of help ingame. Like i said in older posts ive got an old account i re-activated and i need a bit of help learning the new aspects of the game.
Firstly skills and stats. so far i have 98 magery witha cap of 110
105 eval in with a cap of 110
110 med
98 wrestle
75 resist
and for some reason 70 spirit speak...
This wasnt my main character but i cant remember what happened to him. Also my stats are something like 100 int, 88 str, and 44 dex. Do mages need dex anymore for pvp? Im pretty confused..any help would be good.
Also being part of an active guild would be good. I like rping and also a bit of pvp and hunting

I can only speak for pvp and spawning templates

Pvp Mages

Tactics Mage

Adds wep special moves to mage damage IE. Bleed, para, mortal. Only down side is u can be disarmed n hit 100% of time by dexxers and suit is a little harder to build to fit HCI

120 Mage
120 EI
120 Resist
120 Wep Skill
100 Scribe
90 Tactics Or (70 but u can only do one wep special)
50 Medi Or (70)

Wrestle Mage

More defensive than tactics mage but cannot be dis armed. Also lets u use the shield slot when building suits

120 Mage
120 EI
120 Resist
120 Wrestle
100 Scribe
120 Medi
20 Focus
(There are a lot of variants of this dropping medi n focus for Chivalry or Ninja for animal form. Or swapping wrestle for 100 anat to free up more skill points)

Necro Mage

Probably the best PvM template that can also PvP but 90% of the good necro ability's can be negated instantly with apples in pvp also requires u to use a SC -20 MW (Spell chann -20 mage skill mage wep) so u need + 20 magery on ur jewlry

120 Mage
120 Medi
120 Ei
120 Resist
120 Spirit Speak
105 Necro

PvP Archer

120 Acrhery
120 Tactics
120 Anat
120 Resist
90 Heal (Enhanced bandages give +10 to healing skill when used)
90 Medi
60 Chiv




Spawning Templates (all use 100 Necro for Vamp form)

When building the suit you need to over cap fire resistance by 25 to compensate for vamp form

Sampire

Heals only with life leech, confidince and chiv very good pvm due to parry, evasion and a damage bonus from bushido to whirlwind

120 Wep Skill (Swords or maces have good whirlwind weps)
120 Tactics
120 Bushido
100 Resist
110 Parry
100 Necro
60 Chivalry

Theres alot of variants on this changing resist for anatomy but mana drain will get u killed at spawns the extra damage from anat isnt worth it

Vampform Dexxer


120 Wep Skill (Swords or maces have good whirlwind weps)
120 Tactics
110 Anat
120 Resist
100 Necro
90 Heal
60Chiv

This is just my opinion n templates i use / have used and found to be effective there are more viable templates out there bit this is a bit of a long post already
