[ask] light veno

Light's for crits (and pdef at the expense of mdef), not highest damage. Pure mag (1 str, 9 mag per 2 levels) gives highest damage in human form.

I'm lvl 45, and I have around 25 vit, the rest into (min) str and everything into mag

vit is just so I don't really get 1-hit by bosses...

I would recommend imbuing HP shards, rather than Pdef shards - really, you don't really need Pdef- if you aggro'd a mob, you should be able to run away from it pretty easily/ run towards your pet and have the pet poke it.

Unless they're ranged, and if they're ranged, I find they're usually magic, so...I would use +vit instead of +Pdef.

Light armor means that your pet heals are reduced below where they would be for an arcane armor veno, but you have great pdef in fox form, and your fox skills work very nicely with light armor.

Personally, I would not bother with light armor if I were not playing in fox form. (In fox form you might also think about wearing might rings and perhaps even sharding your weapon with garnets).

In my opinion, though, if you are not going to be using fox form, you should be wearing arcane armor and looking for gear (and some shards) that add to your physical defense. You might even do that if you use fox form a lot.

Fox form will also boost your physical defense nicely if you just need the defenses occasionally (like when you lure and when you fight archer monsters -- and remember that archer monsters do half damage to you when you are really close to them).

I am a big fan of light armor in 2lvls 2str 2dex 5mag 1vit shard armor for evasion and weapon for PD. make armor and stuff with magic bonus and your weapon is close to arcane but u are the most flexable and independant toon in the game have fun!b:pleased

PS if it says miss miss miss you are doing it right, and if they miss u take no damage.

My main character is a lv 69 (no jokes please) pure LA veno (caster form only, no added vit), and she is doing great. Crits a go-go, I lose pet aggro quite rarely now (it was because my ice gorilla (glacial walker) uses icicle... I then added bash to his arsenal and it works wonders), my heals are okay and I do not need any sharding. I tend to never rush and chain monsters on a regular rythm.
For me tactics are the key to winning.

That said, since monsters at lv 5x, 6x and beyond tend to use magic, I equipped her with arcane gears (yes, robes).

That said, I very recently created a pure magic veno, but she is at lv 20, so I cannot compare yet.

LA is good for cheap defense up till lvl 90. after then I would restat to arcane with garnets or heavy/arcane build. (this is my last lvl in light armor.)

xD I see my avatar isn't lvl 89 yet. x.x

Light armored venoes are great with being versatile in both fox form and human form. Sharding with Garnets will make their P.DEF skyrocket and having P.DEF in gears, its like they are USING heavy armor while they are using light armor. Endgame, their P.DEF will skyrocket as sage too in fox form b:cute

Rather LA venoes than HA venoes, but IMO I would of prefer pure VIT because VIT have superior survivability. I'd say, go with it if you feel to use this build, don't take stupid criticism from fail forums, they say one thing, but in the real game, its a whole different story. Although I quit my melee LA veno knowing that venoes are ridiculously easy to play. My daughter have it so easy even against physical mobs/ bosses ... Though she can't solo bosses but she can definitely TANK nicely in arcane robes (it takes stack of P.DEF and VIT in gears)
