Ummm...Just hit 46...Tried stealthing through FB19 Human, and the boss ____'d me hard...I had Cleric/Barb/Bm/fully sin buffed + a life powder, and Bloodpaint on.
Pure dex build, with gear as shown:

    If he got a lucky shot and crit you that may have been it, but yea, i'm kinda suprised with all the above, buffs, a cleric/barb etc that you didn't pwn the boss. On a side note, I had one BH left from 39 before BHunter started gving me 51's. At 61 I stealthed to Calcid and solo'd him with barb buffs only. Was rather proud of myself lol.

    Dude, tone down the yellow please....b:surrender

    I highly doubt you can "pwn" the fb/bh 19 boss at your lvl with that gear, even with buffs.
    Bosses tend to "crit" ya quite often, making any charms tick or nearly tick.
    If you ran around uncharmed, only a double hit would kill you , and that's what probably happened.

    Even a life powder = 50hp/sec and BP (2% of your dmg) + a pot can't prevent you from dying when you get critted after a normal hit.

    p.s. doesn't mean you're fail, but sins are NOT tanks, although they often think they are.

    Half of what helps Assassins tank, when they do, is double spark. It gives us back some HP as well as nearly doubling our damage, essentially doubling our healing from BP.

    Also, note that you have only 13.5 HP/sec with Life Powder because in combat, your regeneration is cut to 1/4 its normal. And note that even on my Blademaster, at level 44 I had some trouble with the boss, and that is with HA as well as phys defense buffs.

    You don't want to worry until your 6x levels where if you can't handle at least 2 mobs in your BH51 on your own (while of course spamming pots and double spark if necessary), that is when you want to worry about being fail. At those levels and higher, Assassins really start to come into their own because they are so powerful in their own way. You can kill physical mobs without them being able to touch you, you can slow down any physical attack mobs on their attack speed, you can keep any mob from moving indefinitely, and if you time your Subsea with a Blademaster's Heaven's Flame, you will find mobs go down in just a few seconds.

    So, for now, don't worry about being able to solo bosses and dungeons. Just worry about being able to survive in your BH's and against mobs while doing your quests. So long as you can do that, you are doing fine.

    You may want to look in the Auction house for some better boots, helmet and bracers. Something with hp/vit and dex. Don't spend a lot on it though, as levelling can be easy, and you'll outlevel it quickly.
    1 vit = 13hp, i think.
    This is my signature. It is my sin in stealth mode.

    Excuse me for trying to bring some color into the forums, because all I see is white text -.-
    And no, the boss was not 2shotting me, lol. Every time I tried it I always got it down to 2/3's or less, and then it crited on me.

    I understand that Sins are NOT tanks, I just thought that a lvl 46 would totally be able to solo a measly FB19 boss, but apparently not...I'll wait a few more levels.

    About you dieing in FB19, that is embarrassing, I mean seriously? FB19 is easily tankable or kitable at level 30+. Use your tactic.

    About you tanking and not the barb, that sucked harder. Let the barb tank.

    You using blank gear and exp necklace (ROFL LOL)? Also LOL rank equipment and sharding BLANKS?? Are you nuts? Sorry, but your gear is just awful. Learn how to gear properly.

    Yes, you have failed.... Being honest, but everyone has bad days once.
    I, II and III spark is the most cheesiest skill in PWI and it should be removed or massively nerfed.

    Yulk knows, too, since he's the leading forum expert on failing.

    He was doing it all over the Archer forums earlier today.

    You do realize that the chances of getting gears with that much Vit and Dex altogether is highly unlikely, and that for a person who doesn't stay at a single level for days on end, money can be somewhat hard to come by.

    I'm half surprised though that with how long you keep each set of gears, you don't refine and shard them. Hell, I don't even stay at lower levels that long, I still have some shards in them at least, and legendary weapons after 40 I usually refine to at least +2.

    Lol at this, a bunch of noob players follow forums b:laugh If I did not lag so much I rather play PW and ignore the failrums right now >.> You haven't see how I play have you? A lot of people say I play very well for barb / veno / bm (sometimes cleric and wiz as support xD) and actually trust me in squad... As an archer (or any other DD), not so much ROFL.

    I keep my gear, especially if it is HA. If it have VIT + reduce P.DMG taken adds I will definitely keep them, very useful for all HA chars, or if I have extra good equips, I either keep that or give to a friend. As for average gear,

    You have that ability though. You can wait around for gears that are good because you aren't going to move through the levels that quickly. Other players who do level quickly do not have that option.

    I have seen how you play, actually. I've seen you take eighty times as long to kill a mob as is necessary in that helpful youtube video you've posted in the past. Not like it matters much, anyway: a good veno is there to iron scarab/amp/purge, not kill.

    A good barb/BM on the other hand?

    They'd be higher level than I am by this point.

    bloodpaint, sparking, rib strike and interval attacks at your level regardless of gear with pots should be plenty sufficient in taking on the fb19 bosses...




    I have a lvl 34 sin who i keep at that level for farming who can solo all 3 of the fb19 bosses.....not bragging just saying.

    Don't buy legendary armor and rings like Yulk said. Its pretty much useless at this level. You can get easily from 40 to 60 in two weeks only doing BH runs. buy legendary dagger only. I used dissector till 56 to use cloudthorn. than I used it until 69 legendary daggers which i will use until hook and thorn. Use jones' blessing which is free. Its really pointless to buy these gear in early level. Anyway ★Armor of Barbarian Shaman is not that good. 3 stars is way enough until rank armor. Barbaric Warrior's ring is also pointless according to its cost.

    Youre focusing too much on HP shards, change them to Garnet Shards and youll see a big difference agaisnt monsters. Im usually soloing FB19- BH59 alone or with a cleric, my health doesnt drop below 25% unless its a magic boss. Like the metal and water boss in BH59
