What is best for PvE?

And what is the stats i need to put on every lvl for both of them?

Didn`t find any answer for that when i searched the forum.

Thanks

    I'm possitive that arcane is better for PvE since you already have your pet to take the tanking role.

    Definitely arcane.

    Best attack power for yourself and best healing power on your pets.

    Enough str to just equip your weapons and robes(i think they have a small str req?)

    Rest into magic.


    skills are the same as any other caster fox

    minimum strg for weapon and robe armor
    is 0.5 strg per level

    this means that at each even level number add 1 strg

    Arcane- pve.
    Light- Mage form pvp.
    Heavy- Fox/mage form pvp.

    Arcane for pve for the higher mag attack to nuke and also heal power.
    As for points,
    Pure mage build :
    1 str 4 mag one level
    5 mag nxt level
    so its actually 9 mag 1 str per 2 levels.

    Vit build:
    1 str 1 vit 3 mag one level
    1 vit 4 mag nxt level
    note that this is just roughly a estimate, its changeable depending on how much u want to cap ur vit at. just make sure to have enough mag and str for ur gears and wep.

    if you want to make sure u have the least requirements, u can count it this way:
    str = ur current lvl + 8 divide by 2
    for eg, str needed at lvl 80 would be 80 + 8 / 2 = 44

    mag = ur current lvl x 3
    for eg, lvl 80 veno would have 80 x 3 = 240 mag at the very least

    dex = 5 or 3 since ur going arcane

    vit = 5 or 3 for pure mage build
    for vit build, like i say it all depends on u :O

    blah dont listen to these guys, youll be a water balloon.

    first off, start with 1 str every odd level till you have 49 str.

    Id suggest heavily getting vitality, and mixing defense and hp gems into your armor.
    You can still have high mag, and still maintain 100+ vit, no one will party you if you have no HP for bosses in rebirth/TT to handle AOEs, unless youre light armor and can take a hit.

    Pure mag is asking for easy death.

    Now from the opposite party ;)

    You can go for LA

    You will deal less damages the Pure, but more survivability

    You just need to look for equipement that gives you Magic bonuses

    The lack of brute force is compensate by more crits .


    Just a question now .. do you keep upping magic after 300 ? (Even though pets will have great deal to keep aggro)
    I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

    Rules= Know your enemy (players and NPCs) gives you more chances to survive.

    I kept upping it for MP's sake for healing pets in TT. Makes life easier on a charm and or pots :P.
