Character creation question

[Harmacist]

I have not seen devblogs or reports, so I'll make the question here, hoping wiser fans may aid me:

In CRPGs I always try to make a melee warrior-wizard. Considering that you can dual spec, I was thinking to be a "two-handed shock mage" thing. Would spreading the points so much make me too weak, compared to other "pure" builds?

The idea is to use offensive magic to enhance my melee skills, like adding lightning damage to attacks, auras, etc.

Thoughts?

i actually have no idea what class types you can make in this game i really should have checked before i bought it >_< i guess il just wait now and see, i do like a necromancer / melee type of mix. So hopefully it has some interesting class types to work towards.

There are no classes, and necro doesn't seem like an option: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgDYerwiQ6s

Str-int chars always fail no matter how is the game design. You want to hit them hard or shock them in close combat or range You have 10 sec in real time with paused setting and within the realism you cant use a lightning bolt and greatsword properly. You think this is going well or was actually, does not meaning of that you spend all potential of the "min and max". Some exceptions are on easy or normal difficulty, soloing all the game. But how does a book worm want to smash all the thinks like an on steroid fitness bull.

I remember seeing a skill that amplifies specific melee attacks with magic(in this case the attack "Thrust") during a preview. Between those kinds of skills and the vigor tree I think you'll be able to make the chaaracter you want.

During character creation it asks you to pick 2 skill sets, so this should not be a problem. If you simply want to use enhancements/buffs then you would probably just spend most of your level ups on the melee side and be fine.

You can pick the same skill set twice during character creation to specialize in just one are if you want also.

Very well. Brute 2-handed warrior incoming!
