    The point of capping vit is to not have the same nerfed mag as an LA does :P

    And how do you have only 85 base vit, if you leveled 87 levels, times 2 vit per level, that should be well over 100.

    Lol, nah, I just said that was the point of capping VIT :p otherwise you WILL be gimped like LA and you might as well just roll an LA at that point IMO.

    One rather interesting modification I have entertained is a character that is arcane + dex dump, rather than arcane + vit dump. I don't think I'll spend that much to reset to it though, but it holds some... interesting possibilities. Anyway, does anyone remember the link to that stat calculator thingy or is it on ecatomb?

    its got a seperate link, its not accosiated with ecatomb, a large amount of vit will not affect your magic in a single way, what made you think it would?

    No, I mean the more points you stat into VIT means less points you can stat into MAG. It's very simple. :P

    And I found it. In case it hasn't been linked in this thread before:

    In rebirth, is the tele to 1k streams still a problem and is there a possible way around it?

    You upgrade them at the zoologist (587 620) in archosaur. You have to buy a tame book from her for 200,000 coins (under 'pet items'), and then talk to her again with your pet out and choose 'learn pet skills'. A tame book upgrades one skill by one level.
    Pet skills have required levels, just like people skills. Most skills can be upgraded at pet levels 20, 40, 60 and 80.

    Which shards should i use as Arcane Veno? Phys/Magic or HP shards?

    It depends on whether or not you've invested in any VIT points or not, and your own playstyle.

    If you're pure arcane, it's arguable that the pdef from shards won't help you as much as HP from shards will.

    If you've already got VIT invested in stats, I think pdef (at least mostly) are the way to go.

    A lot of people mix shards. For instance. all my armor pieces have pdef shards in them, and my ornaments and hat have HP shards. I have 50 base VIT.

    A lot of people swear by pdef shards if you PvP a lot but I don't know much about that as I don't tend to PvP extensively, and it would seem to me the caliber of shards needed would exceed the bounds of levels under 90.

    Level 6 shards are kind of expensive at your level. :3

    Usually average shards are the way to go if you're on a budget, those are only a grade lower and cost ~50k each instead of ~200k each.

    Yea, lv 6 shards cost a lot. But my gear is lv 6 & the question is: can u put lv 5 shards in lv 6 gear etc?

    Sure can ^_^ The only limitation is that you can't put a shard into armor that is lower than its grade, i.e. you cannot put a L6 shard into L5 armor. But you *can* put L5 shards into L6,7,8... armor. : )

    I see some critical errors in the first half which should be fixed.
    1. Makes more money than any other class

    Venos have more expenses than Wiz's, and make about the same. Venos tend to level their pets as opposed to taking all the easy xp, which is why they tend to have more. They also learn to save by saving for the Herc and Nix.
    5. Only class currently that can pull/lure

    We have more luring options at our disposal, but we're no longer necessary as a lurer with genies. In many instances, a barb makes a better puller /lurer without a genie. Clerics and Archers appear to have luring skills as well.
    Almighty damage, HP, and Pdef

    Scorpions out damage, bears and other pets out Hp.
    As for a puller, Kowlin rocks, running faster than mounts, to get those monsters lured. If hes too expensive, Eldergoth Marksmen ftw :O.

    Kowlin is not faster than a spurred mount, and Eldergoth Marksman / Sharpshooter is better in many ways.
    Go for Petite sawflies, Kowlin again, Scorpions and other pets using flesh ream for its bugged PVP damage

    bugged?
