Blademaster MP woes and stats

Alright, my question is two-fold.

First, is it normal that I keep running out of MP? I swear, it's not even funny, I can fight maybe 3 monsters before I run out of Health and MP, and I have to meditate for a couple minutes. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Second, and somewhat related to my first question. I'm a spear blademaster. Up until now, every level, I put 1 point into Vit, 2 into Str and 2 into Dex. However, now that I'm in the 20+ range, I see the requirements on armor and weapons and see that my Str is way too low, and my Dex way higher than what seems to be needed. I had to put 5 points in Str twice before I could use my poleblade from FB19 quest. Furthermore, I barely have 1k health at level 22. Any modifications I should do to my stat allocation?

Thanks in advance for the help!

    I'm an axe BM..but I can do at least 4 MAYBE 5 mobs before I deplete all my mana. Drink the mana potions that you drop. I go through more mana potions than I do health pots. I only do 3-4 skills per mob though.

    Perhaps alternate your stats:
    even levels: 1 Vit 2 str 2 dex
    odd levels: 3 str 2 dex
    It takes a big man to cry, but a bigger man to laugh at him.

    My 2 cents:

    Yes it is normal for your MP to burn out quick, but that is only if you excessively use your skills.MP potions or charms are the answer.

    You also have a few options to refill your health. Either buy hp potions or hp charms(if you can afford it). If you really want to save money, get the apothecary crafting skill and make some Life Powder(You get 5 per craft. You need 15 nectars and 10 golden herbs). For ten minutes you will be regenerating health like your on crack(Actually, your health deteriorates when your on crack...lol...)

    I believe your HP is normal. About your stats, you will want to look at the requirements for your weapons ahead of time(Like looking at a level 25 weapon at lvl 20) so you don't fall short on requirements.

    EDIT: Oh i forgot to add that once you get to lvl 29 and finish the cultivation missions, you can get a self healing skill.

    SPEARS: Another amazing Blademaster sub-class. Due to powerful distance skills, and a variety of linear AoEs, spears are very valuable in war, and powerful for pk. Due to the AGI required for spears, you will have more HP than a pker/wargoing axer, but you will have to line up your targets so that you can use your linear AoE properly. When in the right hands, a spear Blademaster is a truly formidable force - a presence that people on a field of battle are unlikely to miss.

    The build for a pk Spear-user is simply enough STR and AGI to wear heavy armour and your spear, and for the remainder to be used in CON.

    For war... you MIGHT want to put AGI up to a blader's level. I don't personally recommend it, but if you can't get LingYun rings then you might need to.



    I. SPEAR WARRIOR

    ---All-around Build---

    every odd level: +3 str/+1 agi/+1 con
    every even level: +2 str/+1 agi/+2 con
    *every 10th level after 20 (level 30, 40, 50, etc.): +2 str/+2 agi/+1 con

    so for example, you should look like this:

    level 1: str - 5, agi - 5, con - 5
    level 2: str - 7, agi - 6, con - 7
    level 3: str - 10, agi - 7, con - 8
    level 4: str - 12, agi - 8, con - 10
    level 5: str - 15, agi - 9, con - 11
    level 6: str - 17, agi - 10, con - 13
    level 7: str - 20, agi - 11, con - 14
    level 8: str - 22, agi - 12, con - 16
    level 9: str - 25, agi - 13, con - 17
    level 10: str - 27, agi - 15, con - 18
    ...
    level 20: str - 52, agi - 26, con - 32
    level 30: str - 77, agi - 37, con - 46

    ---Long Blade/Mace Build---

    every odd level: +3 str/+1 agi/+1 con
    every even level: +2 str/+1 agi/+2 con

    so for example, you should look like this:

    level 1: str - 5, agi - 5, con - 5
    level 2: str - 7, agi - 6, con - 7
    level 3: str - 10, agi - 7, con - 8
    level 4: str - 12, agi - 8, con - 10
    level 5: str - 15, agi - 9, con - 11
    level 6: str - 17, agi - 10, con - 13
    level 7: str - 20, agi - 11, con - 14
    level 8: str - 22, agi - 12, con - 16
    level 9: str - 25, agi - 13, con - 17
    level 10: str - 27, agi - 14, con - 19
    ...
    level 20: str - 52, agi - 24, con - 34
    level 30: str - 77, agi - 34, con - 49


    And for your mp and hp its REALLY normal, its friggin running away when you solo, try to party with a mage (they have healing spell mwahahaa) or healer :P or archer or someone else, its faster and less damaging on you. Also I recommend you to buy a stack of mp pots before going on hunting, also on your road pick up as much as possible golden herbs, nectar and salvia roots and ageratum to manifacture at apothecary, especially do LIFE POWDER, they are really amazing drugs :P I could go on fighting for ten mins non-stop per life-powder. Oh yeah you'll get diamond sutra at lvl 30 and your hp not worry just lots of mp pots xD. I spam so much my skills that I need to press f2 which is my mp pots quick slots every 30 secs xD
    I had to choose between the War or the Shame, I chose the shame and I got the war
