So came back after being away since 2001 and made a new account and character on Atlantic. Seems like everything revolves around Sampire builds so made one of those. I tried to follow this video guide
I had been skilling up using his spots. I was off for 3 days so thought I made some good progress. Swords, Tactics, Necro, Bushido, and Parry are all over 90. I had been progressing my skills in New Haven and after farming the earth eles in the southern cave for a few hours decided it was time to move on. I tried a few of the spots he recommends but got wrecked. Figured it was just cause I hadnt played in a while and was a little rusty. I went to Shame instead since thats where I spent a lot of time when I used to play. I ran to the second level and got absolutely wrecked. Didnt die but came close several times. I went back up to the first level and got destroyed as well. I could kill things 1 at a time but the problem was pulling something solo. I tried vendor searching for an elemental slayer sword but the cheapest was 1mil and I have like 25k. Im using what ever random drops I have gotten since I cant afford anything else. If Sampire is a bad starter build then what should I try? I thought about a tamer but all the new pet training stuff is kinda confusing. Should I just make a Mage/Bard or a pure Mage instead. Those dont need gear just regs or an instrument right?
