I know everyone says wait til 8x but I went spear/dual blade on my 55 BM and she was good never died but not my style and everyone is saying stretch in your attribute points without certain combos I made this character Dual Blades/Axes and so at higher lvls i get good direct damage in 1v1 but i can also tank with axes with AoEs i have 28 points or so left I use points as I need them so I don't recklessly spend them and be like dang gotta spend money to get rid of them I haven't put a single point into vit yet and I dominate all I know I can't go long with adding no vit but every like 2 levels i get and extra 3-5 attribute points left so when push comes to shove I can put what is left in vit have hi crit rate,evasion, and damage I am no tank but I own anyone equal my level and so basically I am PvE which is fun it is my playing style and I will PvP at higher levels but right no I can wear HA and LA I don't need any changes and at higher lvls I will put evasion stones in besides with high evasion with jewelry and stones and good armor I won't get touched and crit like hell so basically I know what I am gonna do but I need some help so any thing to help is much appreciated b:laugh

    If you need help, maybe you should describe your problem?

    (I probably can not help you, beyond giving you that suggestion, since I know nothing about blademasters. But except for your explicitly saying that you need help, you did not sound like you wanted help?)

    umm I didn't understand what you need help with. two quick notes:

    evasion stones are useless for PvE. Evasion doesn't do **** at all, mobs will hit u with 50% evasion way more times than you think they would.

    how can you tank if u have never put a point into vit?

    Ok, your initial post is extremely confusing and hard to read as there's no punctuation anywhere in it. For future reference, please format your posts to make them easier to read.

    That having been said, if I read your question correctly, my answer would be no, what you are doing is not good at all. By choosing to go dual path, you will not be using any of your SP effectively. You are going to find it difficult, if not impossible, to max out your primary skills for your given level, which essentially means that you aren't really going to be good at either weapon. As a result, the time it takes you to kill a mob will increase as will the damage that you are going to take from that mob. This will result in it taking you more time to gain exp and as a result gain levels than it would someone who chose to specialize on a single weapon path.

    As for you not adding any points into Vit, what are you trying to be.....a tough looking paper bag? Your vit should be approx. equal to your level up until you hit around level 60 or 70 (there's some debate about where this max cutoff should be).

    In short, the best advice I could give you considering how far into the game you are would be to delete your character and re-roll. I'm not trying to be rude or be a smart-a$$, just giving you an honest and experienced opinion.

    Play how you want to play, I think I know what build you are doing as I've done this before too.

    I've played primarily a Blade BM but have branched out into Axe and pole. I am nearly maxed in Blade skills and Axe is in the medium and where pole is all lvl one. Its pretty cool, others will dissagree but this really shouldnt matter to you, depending on how good you are with the build you are making.

    Basically your making a pure damage dealer BM, which does high phys damage at the cost of being kinda squishy, but who knows you may be able to out damage and kill ppl faster. I've done this build and i seem to have found it to be quite useful in doing pretty good high phys damage than normal.

    With that build base vit. base mag and rest into Str and Dex. you will become highly resistant to all Barbs and other BM's but you'll be killed by Clerics/Veno/Wiz/Archers pretty easily if they get first hit before you can stun them due to your low vit.
