I wanted to get some input that others may have for any Sword (or Mace) and Shield warriors.
I have a few really epic heavily modded shields for melee fighters that I've been dying to put to use. Recently, I have dusted off my old "Paladin" character (who is also my Governor character for ATL Trinsic). So far, I haven't quite had the success I've wanted to with it. I changed skills around once or twice but only so-so results.
Current skills are the following:
105 Swordsmanship (120 with ring)
120 Tactics
120 Parrying
120 Chivalry
100 Necromancy
090 Resist Spells
065 Anatomy
At one point, I had 70 Healing and 95 Anatomy (with a +15 Anat ring to get to 110 total) instead of the Necromancy and 65 Anatomy.
Current set up is to leach back life in Vamp form (essentially a sampire without bushido). I have a full set of Cameos and elemental Radiant Scimitars for Whirlwind and elemental Broadswords for Armor Ignore. I have 212 Stam suit, all Bone/Studded for 55 LMC.
I am not married to Necromancy or Chivalry. Generally open to changing almost anything (except for adding Bushido and negating the shield), so figured I would post up to get some input to see if anyone had any other suggestions or comments on "Sword & Shield" templates that worked for them.
Tell me what you've got!
