sampire suit mods question

[madatu]

Well guys i was thinking of making my new sampire a gargoyle but i cant seem to find a weapon that has decent specials so looks like i will be becoming human soon. But now i have another question. There are so many different builds, some people like spirit speak, some like anatomy. i heard that the spirit speak helps with healing. i think anatomy adds some damage increase.  What way do you guys run. I was talking to oracle here and he uses anatomy and likes it. What mods do you use on your suits. lmc 8, stamina increase, mana increase, lrc for casting curse weapon. whats your fancy ?

I have a similar gargoyle build, not sure you would call it a sampire, but I use to solo coon and rikki with no problem.  I may not be able to recall what exact skills, but it something like

90 anat
90 tactics
120 swords
120 throwing
90 healing
99 necro
ss ? not sure
resists think so

What i do is use the gargoyle swords wep, it has whirlwind as a special.  use that to get the champ up the switch to slayer throwing wep.  Use vamp embrace to get the life leach back.  I never die against rikki or the spawn.  max damage inc with slayer wep.  I use the throwing wep that has AI's as specials and AI rikki to death.

A sampire build is very personnel.  you need to try different build and see what you like and what style u want to play.  I have try a few and I have been using this type.  I have solo lot of stuffs and also Dies.   Skills is not only the importance, but the weapons and tactics on fighting.  The more I hits and the more monster  I have around me , the more I heal.    So  SSI, HML, HSL MI, STR, HLD, DEX, STAM, LMC (40%)  DI ( 100%).     Depending on the champ, I swap resist for anatomy.  Enjoy and have fun trying.  Stratics  have a few post about sampire builds.

120 Sword
120 Tactics
120 Resist
120 Bushido
100 Necro
80 Chivalry
60 Parrying

Definitely agree with what has already been said here.  You'll find that depending on what champs/peerless/bosses you want to go after, you may need to alter your build slightly.  Just have the alternate skills soulstoned, and you're good to go. 

The build I run with 90% of the time was designed simply to be able to chain AI's constantly.

120 Weapon
120 Bushido
120 Tactics
120 Anatomy
100 Necro
95 Chiv (15 from ring)
60 Parry

Suit is pretty straight forward:

70/70/70/70/75 in form.  150 HP - 183 Stam - 120 Mana
40 LMC
30+ Stam Inc
30+ Mana Inc
25 HP Inc
50 EP
100 DI
45 HCI
45 DCI
5 SSI

Guys thanks for all your good advice and discussing what you guys are running on your sampires.

Ill have to look to give you exact numbers, but off the top of my head I would say my gear has mr2, stam inc, mana inc, lmc, and HPI.  Not on every piece, i have to imbue some resists i believe.  My stratagy is to max out as many mods as i can, like stam inc, hpi and definately lmc. 

[madatu]

is mr 2 enough of mana regen, is stamina inc better than stamina regen same applies to hpi? i know the whole thing is leeches. i have like mr4 or 6 on my other sampire and i dont run out of mana. just asking.

I personally have never put MR or SR on any of my sampire suits.  Lots of stamina and mana increase is what I generally load on there as much as possible. 

All of your weapons will probably have mana and stamina leech on them, so in my opinion, MR and SR on your suit are wasted mods.
