New char starting skills

[Cerveza]

I'm going to be making this char:

120 Throwing
120 Swords
120 Bushido
100 Tactics
100 Anatomy
90 Healing
70 Chivalry

I'd welcome inputs for training order, techniques.

I'm thinking of starting with 50 Tactics and 50 Throwing, then buying up the other skills to 40 and training them in New Haven.

Throwing - I hear those slimes take you to 120?
Swords - Friend tames a wolf(?) spider, you hit it with poison weapon?
Bushido - Couple days casting
Tactics - Worked up with Throwing and Swords, should be 100.
Anatomy - Easy with healing
Healing - Dual account trapped box script.
Chivalry - Macro'd.

I am also starting a new toon with similar skills. whats your plan for his base stats?

[Cerveza]

Base will be around 100 str, 115 Dex, remainder in mana.

Suit will add in hpi, mi and stamina.

im one for training the magic skills first and then letting the stats even out from the weapons training.  in this case, slimes will take throwing anat and bushido to 120 each if you wished to take the skills that high.  tactics will stop at 85 on slimes if you eat a 120 and a little lower if you do not eat a scroll.

after doing chiv, i would move to slimes and go up until u cap your tactics gains or 120 bushido from lightning striking them.  then move to a golem or tents..etc.

last thing i would do is healing.  the question would be would gains be slower with anat alread up there.  if so, healing first then chiv etc.

I suppose its easy to change stats so training magic would imply keeping int high to start and then letting it drop as dex increases with the fighting skills?

Why only 70 Chiv?

Why only 70 Chiv?

I normally only go to 65 for 100% Sacred Journey, but I hate missing Enemy of One thirty times in a row. I'd like to have more but I don't see where I could steal points.

10 points on a skill ring maybe.

could also toss on the shield that has chiv on it when needed

When I make a toon with a combat skill I make two at a time, and I use this script:

http://www.scriptuo.com/index.php?topic=4080.0  

The script is still a work in progress, but it works and will train two toons to max in:
heal
anat
Tactics
parry
any weapon skill.

Use a stat script and you can balance your stats as you go.
Enable the chivalry spells and it will get you close to where you want it by the time you are done with your other skills.

Paul - I'll be giving this a try in the near future to train swords etc  - thanks for pointing it out.

While gearing up my gargoyle and using breastplate of the berserker - the strength required to wear it is 95. So what does my total strength have to be so when i get cursed or weakened with no resist so i can still wear my armor?

[Cerveza]

Lowers the Strength, Dexterity and Intelligence of the target by a percentage (Magery / 10 +1) (11% at 100 Magery)

100 Magery = 11% so 107 - 12 (11.7) = 95
120 Magery = 13% so 110 - 15 (14.2) = 95

If your PvM'ing, remember there's critters out there with 120+ Magery.

*And I thought you were a "numbers guy"...

[gimlet]

heheheheh - ya got me there!

Does even a little resist help?
 

[Cerveza]

Yes, changes the whole dynamic.
