So... I was pwning up a Rikktor spawn and my wife walks by and was watching me, proceed to get through the spawn and down Rikky without dying and she said 'I want to do that'.... thus started her making a sampire.
But.... unlike my woodland armor, which she considers ugly, she wanted her armor to be 'pretty'..... and she decided on plate armor.
I thought that I would document my trials and tribulations down this path....
Since she wanted plate and was going to be a macer (I let her choose her weapon skill), I felt the best piece to start with was the Insane Tinker Legs, together with Mace and Shield glasses, we start with resist of:
42/25/17/25/12
Being a Sampire, I am looking for resist of 70/95/70/85/75 (she's an elf). If poison doesn't reach 85, that will be fine, but I'd like it to be 85 plus...
Physical I won't put much though into because needing only 28 resist spread over 4 pieces... that's 7 per piece.... at this point, I am planning on each piece being Valorite, so that is a base 9 in Physical, which would put me at 78.
Why Valorite? I know that I am going to be imbuing Fire on each piece. In order for Fire to hit 95, I have to average 17.5 fire per piece. I am tempted to use like a DC hammer and see if I just happen to get lucky... then again, I kind of consider that a waste, since I use DC hammers for making elemental weapons.
With Valorite having resist of 4/0/3/3/3, it seems a prefect fit for the premise. Of the metals, it has the highest total resist between cold/poison/energy.
more....as I figure it out
