or on that note why not rd plus speed drug, ok thats expenssive really fast but if you stall daily you can cover the drugs for a days worth of grinding, though noise really helps too

***Money*** U_U. I don't have money. I can't stall all nights so i can't buy speed drugs... so lets decide between noise and speed for "cast + run + cast + run + cast" or Healing Cycle, Holy Sword, Recovery Division and Bless Spell for "cast + cast + cast + Lure more mobs = Tank tank tank!"...

I don't know if when i get at caves 50+ or 70+ (Ksro) Speed will be useful

ya but many lvls before and after caves you don't always have a very clustered and nice separated spawn like you do in caves, but hey both are good fun

Lock/Bard is good if you have a pet to pick drops ... otherwise you´ll have to walk back and get itens ... it´ll slow down a lot grinding.

Yep, you're probably right! =)

This guide was made for 80 cap and has not been updated since, hehe. Maybe I need to change the title. :/

PvP part: "99% chances they use this, in this case..." "90% chances they use that, in that case...". I guess the point there is, if they are actually smart ,and don't do what you expect them to do, you're dead.

Rogue shotting you from afar, and not being cocky like you expect, and you're dead. PvP isn't about underestimating everyone. I'd rather overestimate people, think about the smartest strategies they can use on me, and then be sure about how to kill them. For instance find yourself a way to kill a rogue who will most likely snipe you, at least it will work not only against weak players, but also against smart ones. Same for all the estimations you've done on other classes. Besides, you grouped all chinese into a category, when a pure Int chinese is much different from a pure Str.

Anyways, you've put a lot of work into this guide and I find it pretty good overall, the only thing I don't agree with is how you underestimate everyone at PvP.

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=62280&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=30
The whole PvP section was copied and pasted from Da_Realest's posts, which is why I gave him credit for the content.

While I understand your concern that one shouldn't underestimate other people, I haven't felt the need to change the section because, well, I've played the build and most points on that list are valid. Not to start a back-n-forth PvP strategy conversation, but my last character was a Bard/Warlock and Rogues were no difficult task. If they sniped me from afar without Xbow buff, the damage wouldn't be high enough (granted, I had very good gear) and if they used the buff, they'd be extremely vulnerable to my attacks. And I haven't even mentioned Reflect (!), but I digress...

I've yet to hear people come back and complain that the strategy listed in the guide was ineffective and they need me to add more strategies for PvPing a certain build. People will figure out strategies on their own and create their own play style throughout the game. I didn't include that section to list possible ways a Rogue or a Wizard can kill a Warlock, but rather to list some guidelines which can give Warlocks a better understanding of what to expect when PvPing certain builds or classes, not absolute strategies that will guarantee a victorious outcome. If I started strategizing from another build's viewpoint, I'd never finish because there are so many strategies out there. I much prefer writing these things over writing something like, "A Rogue will crit you anyway so don't even bother attacking" (you get the point). Giving the reader confidence before they are faced with the situation will encourage that they think of other possible techniques to help them survive against builds of higher damage.

As a closing note, I'd like to point out that this guide was made almost 2 years ago. Play styles and techniques were much more simpler back then when Euros were the new kids in town. Glad you liked the guide, and although I do understand where you're coming from, I reiterate that the section is intended for ways a Warlock can attack other builds and build confidence in possible future Warlocks. =)

You should make one! =D I'm currently working on the Bard/Warlock one on and off so it's taking a while but I only have a few more sections to go so I might post it soon, but I'm not sure I'll be able to finish an updated Warlock/Cleric one any time soon. I think I will post the PSD file this time, but it's going to be around 100mb by the time I finish. x_x

Edit: Whoops, I just checked the file and it's already 104mb. XD

For cap 100, if you go 0-gap, 1m is the "least" amount needed to be somewhat FF. Imho you could cut back on:

+ Some skills in the cleric side ( such as over/glut healing ), and some healing skills dont need to be maxed ( such as recovery / group recovery )
+ AOE debuffs (AOE weaken, AOE impotent, but dont drop AOE division ) + AOE dots ( i personally go for 3 single-target DOTs and 2 AOE DOTs ).
+ AOE trap
+ Disguise skills and shadow/dusk amour

--> But its best to cut back a bit only, cause lock/cleric need lots of speicalised skills to work on specialised situations.

I no longer play on my Euro characters but the build essentially remains the same. A few strategies have changed since the firewall/icewall update but other than that, the rest mostly remains the same. I'll see if I can make a super mini guide in the near future just to use as a reference for 100 cap. :)
