    Due to the low HP modifier i suggest you stop pumping vitality and put some HP shards into your equip, get as much strength as necessary for newest gear and dump the rest into magic.

    If you want more durability you might want to consider light armor (str, dex for newest gear, rest put into magic).

    i disagree and find vit very valuable to my build, I love being able to last multiple hits and not dying after 2-3 strikes. The hp mod is 13 hp per vit which is -not- that bad. Stack it with refines, and HP shards and you could have alot of HP (Seeing my friend only has ~ 1.7khp with no vit @ 70 and I have almost 4k :P) It doesnt inhibit your damage at all, and could be useful in pvp. continue your build it works :)

    PROTIP: you mispelled your name

    Pure mag (vit) can take like 1-extra hit in pve. Pure mag (no vit) kills so quick the mobs don't even get a chance to hit. In pvp it makes no difference. Robes just die quick in pvp.

    If you want true survivability then go LA with vit. Mix and match the +phys and citrine shards.

    I thought LA don't have enough spare points for vit.b:question

    Lol it doesn't... I know of a veno that has managed by allocating points to Vit that otherwise would've gone to Mag, while personally i strongly disagree with such an aproach, the truth is she does seem to be happy and succesful with her build... both pure mage and full vit are sound suggestions, so is LA although it can be somewhat more difficult to manage for new players. My advice is not to worry too much and pick whatever you think you'll be more comfortable with, as long as you're stating at least 6 Mag/1 Str every two levels you'll do just fine.

    Ah, thanks alot for you're help ;) Ill just keep going like i already did ;) I nuke the mobs at my own lvl pretty quick, compared to other classes, but when i duel, i feel my self kinda weak ^^
    But what pet should i use at lvl 14? im using a Lynrux or something at the moment, and i think it works good ;) but what do you think ?

    Stick with your lynxus until lvl17-18 and you can get the crystaline magmite, that pet will be your main tank unless you decide to buy a herc. It will then fall back to being a backup tank. Try and have 2 p.def tanks and at least 1 m.def tank, since at higher lvls most mobs are m.att. Golem will be your best tank until hercules. As for the shards, you really dont need them until you hit the late 40's 50's, since you'll be lvling so fast, they would be a waste of coin imo. I only started sharding my equip. at lvl 60 and i'm mag build. b:chuckle
