DCZ Int priest build

[r1ckyb0by]

After running around in DCZ for a while, I was really surprised at the lack of talented INT priests so I was going to take a break from archer and remember my roots.

Build would be as follows:
This is Ares btw

DD25 FP helm
Goblin Chitin Pauldron
Goblin Chitin Pads
FP8 Boots (HP)
FP8 Gaunts (HP)

Dread+7
Holy Animor +7

Dual WE+0
EP+0
Skele Belt +0
Dual ROL's +0

HP 2492
MP 3801
AP 218
Def 1015
Str95
HP 109
Dex 60
MP 50
Int 160

Resistances
Flame 112
Glacier 112
Lightning 152
Magic 65
Curse 145
Poison 145

Weap Defense
DD 45
Club 10
Axe 20
Spear 30

Thought about getting arrow defense pads and an iron set, but not sure how much that would help. These stats are WITHOUT any buffs. Don't want to spend too much as this is not my primary character.

Suggestions?

hmmm interesting armor combination but anyway that looks great. Thats better than some people's main lol. You will be fine, just curious though, buff/heal? duff/heal?

[Destiny]

GR > LR...might be worth considering roms+1 / +2 or a lycaon hammer instead of holy animor

I've tried the armor combo in PK before, except with FP9 gaunts and boots and a Chitin Goblin helm for XP purposes. It pretty much rocked. Used it in RLB until I could afford my Chitin 8 set and even then kept the Goblins on me for when I needed mage resists. It does away with the need for a Lycaon Hammer so you can use the HA for it's Defense and Magic Poison Curse resistance purposes. That's why the chitin goblins were so expensive at one time and still are if you know how to use the build, but the build is mainly for DCZ now. It gives a lot more defense than the FP build as well. I worked up a FP8 build for comparison on KOK (see below).

I would be sharing some of the more expensive items with my rouge, such as the ROL's and Skele Belt. The WE's and EP would be OLDS.

DUFF / HEAL for PK. Use scrolls or go home.

As far as the Glacier VS. Light resistance. IMO LR>GR for the simple fact that you can cure yourself out of being slowed, with stun all you can do is spin around and pot.


The alternative build would be:

DD25 FP Helm
FP8 Pauld, Pads, Boots, Gaunts
Dread 7
Lycaon Hammer +6 (price is comparable to +7 HA)
Dual WE+0
EP+0
Dual ROL+0

HP 2485
MP 3646
STR 101
INT 158
HP 105

AP 183
DEF 969

Resistances:

FR 124
GR 124
LR 164
MR 29
CR 109
PR 109

Weap Defense
DD 45
Club 10
AX 20
Spear 30
