Spear Build

[Reignhardt]

Im thinking of doing a spear build also using:

• Combat Mastery
  - Defensive Tactic, Setup and maybe Stance Training
  
• Athletics
  - Leg Sweep, Elusiveness, Adrenaline Rush, and Inner Reserves
  
• Pyromancy
  - For just a non-ammo range ability if I think I should.

Do you think this is a good way to apply my attribute points?

Str  28
Agl  28
Per  15
Vit  28
Wis  15

EDIT:
Well it appears you can only get to somewhere around level 12ish. So I will have to adjust what skills i get.

That is an awful lot of attribute points. 18 + 18 + 5 + 18 + 5 = 64 by my count. Do you plan on leveling your character all the way to level 30? Why? By level 15, you'll walk all over everyone.

Oh. Sorry I am new and saw there was a level 30 cap.
Well, not to sure what do do for my build then as I have no idea how many points I will get.

Usually, I plan my builds around level 10-12 at the moment, since that's about when you'll run out of content.

You can certainly keep playing beyond that point, but it gets repetitive.

Why use pyromancy? Just get a crossbow, don't waste skill points. Spells scale with magic power, and you won't get any, so it will quicly become obsolete. Not to mention that it will cost you a lot.

Is that -45% accuracy still worth it? That sounds like, without spending any skill points, that I will be missing just under half my shots.

I guess somehow that -45 is not calculated quite the way it looks on paper... I will give the crossbow a try.

Crossbows are a must earlygame. Sure, sometimes you will miss all your shots, but mos of the time you can severely damage or outright kill people before they reach you. Also you dont have to invest any skill points in ranged to use them efficiently, unlike bows.

Thank you. Will try one for sure.
