lolz, i should say 50%-acc rings only affect basic acc (equipment + natural acc). They don't have effect on acc after using 200% acc skill,i.e if your basic acc is 600, after using the skill it will be 1800, then equip 2 50%-acc rings it will be 2400 (not 3600). This point make the way of using 2 50%-acc rings is a money-consuming way and so that not the best way to increase acc of werebeast.

Now, take a look at this example. Good acc-adding accessories (7x-8x) will have OP increasing about 100-160 acc (usually with 3 OPs look like: + 50 acc, +65 acc, + 5 DEX....etc). Assume that all 4 accessories (amulet, necklace, 2 rings) have OP of adding 120 acc., with weapon like you said before: +12 DEX, filled with 60 - 80 acc-adding stone (we'll use 60). Let total DEX be 60 (= about 480 acc).

- OK, with two 50% acc-adding rings (mean you don't use two 120 acc-adding rings) we'll have: 2*(480 + 60+ 2*120)=1560. If we use the skill, acc will be 1560*3 = 4680.

- With one 50% acc-adding rings, we'll have 1.5*(480+60+3*120)=1350. Use the skill then it will be 1380*3=4050. This is quite enough to pvp agaist acher.

- If we don't use 50% acc-adding rings, we'll have 480+ 60 +4*120=1020. Use the skill then it will be 1020*3=3060. Isn't it ok!?

With very good rings you will have about 150 acc each ring or even more, while each 50% acc-adding ring cost about 15-20mil Gold, which can buy about 50 - 70 Golden HP/MP charms for months of trainning (yeah, i'm sure the price will reduce later in game but now we can craft 10% - 30%acc-adding for necklace 8x-9x and maybe with some better OPs also).

Actually, this only neccessary in pvp. Since i like walking around or trainning, my first priority is rings adding %crit and physical dmg, necklaces and amulets adding HP, def, -% dmg taken...

Tee heee, sry, i forgot here is human mage topic!

Now back to mage: If you're going to use heavy-geared mages, you won't be able to use equipments having OP -% delay time or something like this. This is an important Op for magical races. So you should consider about it.:d

i presume wat icewater meant by lam vang ring to be ling yun ring aka +50% acc ring.

no actually having 2 X 50% acc ring is better than anything else in terms of accuracy. At L90 dusk palace rings, there are alternatives like +30%accuracy+2%crit rings.

i dont know where u got your calculations from.

u say u cast the accuracy buff before u equip the rings. how abt u equip the rings first then u cast the buff?

if base acc is 600, u use 2 X 50% acc rings...accuracy becomes 1200, then u use 200% accuracy buff u get 3600 accuracy. i have tried this method so many times with ling yun rings and have always came up with the same result.

do u own ling yuns? have u tried equippng them yourself to check the statistics?

by the way ling yuns cost more than 15-20m gold on my server. they are worth 60-80+ million on the malaysian chinese server now.

3k or so accuracy is not enough to pk a high dex based archer with half decent gear.

what i am trying to say here that Ling yun is the most expensive and the best way for the rich people out there to increase their Accuracy be it a wuxia or a werebeast lol.

and yes accuracy is only needed for pvp lol..u dont need it for lvlling purposes or anything else other than pvp which i mentioned many times before.

My In-Game Screenies!!!

higher lvl you get more mp needed for spells , you'd be stupid not to work on int , higher int the faster your mana regeneration. wasting on str and dex for heavy armor is a way to mess up your mage build

It's not a waste ^^! i think if you play mage by yourself, you can become another "stupid" one

@kemis: i'm playing in PW-VN, not in chinese version:d

the int will be the same as the build for light armor.
u just have the option to wear gear either providing def or mdef, depending to ur needs.

its better to use sp pots then to use a stat just to increase ur max mana and mana regen.


jeez, i think i wrote something like that a dozen times already ...

well, i think some people wont be able to play a char like that, thats true.
bet that build wont be something ur gonna play, so whatever. *shrugs*

oh, and u should really discuss the lam van/ling yun/dex ring stuff in another thread.
shame on you all

yeah, each build has its advantages and its disadvantages ^^

but thats what makes it interesting, as i hate classes with no cons.

Heavy armor mage...lol
BAD for pvp, bad for pve.
Little manna for pve.
Little m defense against other spell casters.
Oh I guess you can own warriors...if your mana doesn't end before you take all their health.
This is mage guys...Think more perspective. You only see numbers.

Magician: Alf

nice ^^
too bad i cant find a chart bout how much defense reduces gives what damage reduction

come on, if ur stat build is perfect, u can wear the robe and heavt armor too^^ u also can wear both by mixing them, a nice heavy armor mage's magic atk not much lower than a int type ^^

@Raalf lol.. no char is imba of course, if there is all people will go for that char lol..

@xiaoloui lol there is a saying "no one's perfect" XD and also wearing both at the same time is impossible lol... how would u like to wear two kinds of underwear at the same time XD hehe just an example :p

@Beck yup... no con XD but i think 3k hp is ok.. u do have enough def/mdef so its ok... just use amu or pots... also u don't need to wear the same heavy armor as ur current level... if u do ur damage will suck big time XD

im just showing this to u guys so ul have an idea of what's in store for a heavy armor type fashi... so far as im playing its so fun ^^ one of the best things with this build is that u can use fiery storm all u want coz of ur def ^^...
