Opinion: Best PvM?

[Hiroki Yamamoto]

Morning Everyone,

I've just returned to UO after being a WOW addict for 4 years and I wanted to get some opinions on the Best PvM Skill Set. WOW has a great Armory tool for viewing what other players are setting their skill and armor sets to and I wish UO had the same tool.

From my forum reading it appears the preference is Mage/Tamer. So what do you all think is best for pure PvM/Dungeon killing? Please 'brag' about your exact Skill build...I want to know!

Thanks for any input.

I never learned how to properly play a tamer or mage I suppose, because I always end up dying more on one of those templates than I do on a melee.

Until last year I was a swordsman, but I decided to switch to fencing for faster hits. My main template is a chiv/fencer

110 fencing
110 tactics
110 parry
100 healing
100 anatomy
100 chivalry
the remainder of points dumped into focus.

With my suit I'm at 150 dex, 125 str, and 70 in all resists except poison. Thats only 65/68 (depending if I remember to put my snake skin boots on). I tend to do better on hand to hand than any sort of ranged combat.
