Opinions/advice

trent1408yahoo

Hi I'm a fairly new player (about 4 months-5 total I think), and my main is a BM. I'm hoping for opinions on my current state, and any advice for improving him. Links below are first axe link 2nd fist link then I will list skills below . Ty for any help, just want to get a good main going so I can start some alts/play with wife lvl 90 cleric. Oh and any advice as to what cleric/BM should do for coin/fun/lvling would be nice, if possible what lvl we can start soloing things. FWI wondering if current equip can last me to 90 to save for higher lvl equip and fastest way to lvl to 90. Thank you. *Note these char stats include Bell buff and weapon mastery bonuses but usually would have cleric buffs all lvl 10 at minimum although almost always barb buff/blood paint

i and the rest of the bm comunity (saku dosent count because apperently he's nice or something) refuse to answer any questions that are already painfully clear in the stickies or and build posts outside the FAQ

good day learn to read and die in a fire

Lol I have read through tons of forum information on BM/game, just happened to not remember the FAQ saying to post in "That" thread so will post there. (Although you do not need to be so rude I understand most people that post for advice/help don't read through forums first, but sometimes someone like me who has dug through these forums for 20+hours devouring information simply forgets information gathered that at that time wasn't useful. Just a suggestion.)

Ahhh, Saku is nice!

K, here is what I'd do. Swap out your current belt of Pirate King's Seal for the magic defense. Time to upgrade the fists, too. Either go for TT80 green Budha's Fists or save up for FCC gold Gorenox Vanities. Grab a Misty ring and an Attendance ring. And you should be fine. Ofc you can try for DQ bracers or go for TT90 gold, Lunar Cape... the works but thats all very expensive. It's the gear you want but something to work up to.

Skills look fine. Maybe a few more on magic marrow would be nice. As for pole and sword skills, I would recommend having MSS level 4 or 5 to buy yourself time if you get low on hp and need a quick rescue, then work on masteries, then level MSS and GS. Have GS leveled to +10 by the time you can afford demon (I assume) GS.

My wife is a cleric also so I duo a bit with them, too. The most important thing is how your genie is setup. ToP, AD, and Cloud eruption, as well as Earthflame are all awesome skills to have. If I have paint usually the best thing for the cleric to do is bb for the damage reduction since its the one hit (or two quick hits) that kill me. If I'm not worried about being 2 shot and I have paint then having the cleric use seals will act as a bonus heal. Position the cleric behind you so the boss would have to run through you if random aggroing. Depending on the aoe I may like the cleric close so I can AD in some cases. Earthquake is another good skill to have on your genie for emergently interupting a boss skill. And be nice, buy your cleric rez scrolls and GAs b:bye

Max marrows.


Current gears should last till level 90 for the most part, get 2 misty rings when possible, save up pages for level 3 attendance ring, use the level 77 and 79 mold plate and legs until level 90.

And don't touch fists until you get demon spark and some -int gears, skill spam with axes will be better.

SeaStorm - Heavens Tear

Shadowless Kick will also interrupt channeling on bosses (ie FB69). you just have to learn the boss's timing that free's up your genie for AD, Cloud Eruption etc.

In addition to the marrows which are already suggested, would also suggest maxing your diamond sutra.

I ran my BM on mold gear/TT boots/TTwrists (as I wanted the TT90 gold - int ones) till 90.

Personally I have all three 79 skills, suggest Smack first, and work on the other two as you can.

I think I have a few other skills max'd out that are used in various weapon aoe combos but those are personal preference as I see some bm's hate and some are fine with them.

MSS is nice not only for when u get low on HP but when you might have more shall we say "squishies" in squad that the AOE from bosses take a nice chunk of HP off them.

Another BM and I tend to like to combo our skills to best advantage for both squad and damage. Due to that we also use Glacial Spike (pole 2 spark). Then again we're both 4 path.

Ignore Josh and ppl like him, they think they are "Tough Guys" only because they hide thenselves behind their monitor screens, on their mama's basements.

Congrats on providing a **** reply that doesn't contribute to anything.

grats on not readling the 1/2 page reply that was given in the thread made for these things, question is it more helpfull to give a dirty hobo hippie a buck? or to kick it into a shower drag it to rehab and kick it into employment?

Seriously though who you be? Are you somone i butthurt before? Possibly so hard you cant post from anything but a 7x alt? (checks core connect, damit its down....fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff)
