Title: Grinding Weapon Types
Post by: Psybek on February 05, 2007, 04:48:57 PM
So, for the past 2 Days I have been trying to grind my Weapon Types so they will not be so far behind.

Is it just me or do these train EXTREMELY Slow???  I can kill 8-10 White mobs without Seeing a Point.

And what is the Deal with Monk weapons being so gimped.  I prefer Unarmed Combat but dont understand why my level 12 monk can Crit unarmed for 650+ and with a weapon I rarely see Damage over 250?

I made the mistake of going until around 22-23 to work on my other skills to bring them up in skill...  it is taking F O R E V E R.

I would highly recommend keeping all your skills high or at max.  I have already ran into 1 mob type that was immune to Blunt and Piercing attacks, (didnt have a slasher on me at the time) so keeping up your skills will probably end up being important.

ONe thing to also keep in mind is that after a point you will run out of Weapon Specialization points fo ryour level.  At 14th level most of my skill are about the same but i found out the hard way after I finally got a few new weapons that the points go poof fast.  If I am not carefull when I ding I'll burn points in the last weapon I used rather than the lowest I need to work on.

Havent tried to use the "minus" key yet to unlearn some skills as of yet though I have locked the various hand to hand weapons (utak & claws, hand wraps etc) at various times as to not increase them when I want to raise Martial sword.
