I'm Trying to build a DD..obviously..key word trying. I don't think I'm being very successful and I have no clue what I'm doing wrong...so I'm turning to the forums for help! Also I wish to be a fist BM because I hear so many high levels complaining about not going fist so..how does having your weapon of choice being fist effect your stats?

My Stats: Vit: 29, Str: 60, Dex: 46, Maq: 5

OK so where should I be attributing my stats too...?

b:surrender Thanks b:pleased

    ok first of all. you dont really use fists till lvl 30 when u can get Sting of thorns. and u use those till 50 or 60 depending on if u get lotus malevolence or not. once u hit 60 you should see ur damage increase significantly. if u cant get a sting of thorns then fists wont be effective till lvl 60.

    so in short... ur not doing anything wrong
    Killing level 80's with a lvl 60 is a lot more fun than killing level 90's with a level 100.

    if you wished to stay with fist then stay with 5 str 4 dex 1 vit every 2 level.
    but if you wished to change in future to axe, as axe BM have many aoe skills, then go for 3 str 2 dex per level.

    OK..well then tell me...if you were in a group, what kinda of damage do you want a DD to do? I mean...as in hitting on mob hard..which would be useful on a boss..or give lighter attacks but doing AOE kinda stuff?

    And they all suggest pretty much 3 str, 2 dex build to maximize damage.

    (Your level - 1 ) x 3 = Strength you should have
    (Your level - 1 ) x 2 = Dex you should have

    You added 24 points to vitality which means you won't be able to use weapons your own level (might have to wait till level 65 to use level 60 axes if you have added enough to strength to use axes at level 60). You can make up some of that with + strength and + dex adds from gear.

    You showed us stats for level 24. If you went 3/2 build then stats should have been
    5 vitality, 5 magic, 74 strength, 51 dex.


    But you won't be an exceptional DDer until you start adding -int to your equipment.

    Both. Switch between your weapons when the time is right. AOEs are more effective with groups of mobs, fists are more effective with single targets, search buttons are more effective with common questions (thought I'd sneak that in there ;)
