Okay, I was curious since I realised that the person who posted the previous poll kinda missed out on a few.

Personally, I'm an LA veno. I only really use fox form for the debuffing and amping skills. And for running away from physical mobs. b:surrender

What build are you? Reikara posted 12 possible ones on the previous poll, but I'm only allowed a max of 10 :P so a bit of squishing is in order!

This is not a 'best build' battle or anything, just wondering how most of us are going. Obviously I'm on a PVP server, so I see a few more heavy venos than one would possibly see on a PVE one.

We'll see eh.

Thanks for your votes! :)

    I'm a pure arcane build, but only because I haven't needed the extra vit yet.

    I reserve the right to restat to a build with more vit if I run into a situation that requires it!

    I completely agree. I'm considering restatting to vit/arcane when I start doing TT runs. Really have to look into the requirements though. Maybe I'll look for some guides. :)

    I'm pretty sure if you do things right, you won't need it ever.

    I kinda throw some points around... I don't remember where... not even sure where I am right now...

    I think mostly str and 1 or 2 vit every few levels maybe? I just know that I pour points into mag. Between healing my Adalwolf and spamming scarab on everything in sight, my mana bar goes down pretty quickly.

    Yeah, been keeping up on refines, went tt80 gold (except for the sleeves), and been putting all citrines in my gear. I'm at a little over 3,800 hp atm unbuffed, just a hair under 5k with a barb buff. I'm not interested in PvP, and I've yet to do a RB run, so far it's been pretty good. I only die when I do something stupid.

    Citrines? You already have plenty of mag def from Arcane / Pure Mag, and phys def is multiplied on by using fox form.

    So your benefits of using Citrine would include?:

    *No fox form bonus def
    *More expensive HP/MP replenishment
    *Less HP % yield on Leech
    *Almost 2x the cost of Garnets
    *"HP is All" idiots will welcome you readily
    *Higher "hit for" numbers to brag about

    Theres nothing wrong with citrined armor, it offers a larger pool of survival. Just throw some garnets in a 4 socket cape & hat, and wear pdef accesories, and you should have a well rounded defense with decent refines.

    I can guarentee with 5-6k hp w/o barb buff, your charm will tick alot less with a partied cleric if youre tanking bosses who aoe, IE FB99 bosses such as Mountain's Finger/Torturess Venerator wholl near one shot you/instantly set off your charm with such low hp.

    advice to fledgling archers:
    Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    Vit/Mag Arcane, I'll have my 100 base vit by 80 and then I'm filling mag till at least 90, and I'll take a look at my HP pool then and decide.

    I have never regretted my decision to stat a good deal of vit (changed from a "light" less-than-50-vit build), not once ^^

    Full magic arcane build. Got 3.8k unbuffed. I use a mix of garnet/citrine shards. Still rolling with multiple 1* items. Errr, forgot to add, lvl 85.

    Equipping 2 might rings with decent fox form skills still dish out quite a bit of damage. (not nearly as much as my caster spells of course)
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    Voted for both LA caster and battlefox since i use my veno in both ways. Depending on the situation.

    That would be me b:victory

    I made a Veno and went with the Vit-Mag build. Having that extra hp has saved me plenty of times already when I draw aggro from my pet for whatever reason. Usually when my pet gets tag-teamed, I heal it, and the one it's not attacking comes after me.

    The build works good for me as I don't PvP with my Veno. I made an Archer for that.

    I did fine w/o a charm and with low HP.
