ias also ^^


yeah sounds hella nice, but are my calculations correct? 400 ED adds 500 to my kick dmg....so i halfed that and estimated the difference.
ED works that same as +%X dmg I'm thinking?
what about lash wish? might aura sounds gravy.

Ziechiek has the best advice on kickers, but what I can tell you so far is the advice on weapons in this thread is stupid.

There are a few setups you will need. and you will need enough dex for max block with ss.

um'd Dweb + Ber'd SS (for those chars who skimp on psn res)

um'd fleshripper + ber'd ss (for those chars who have higher defense and probably higher psn res where dweb wont hurt that much)

um'd wizspike + sanc shield (stacked res vs casters, nothing else to say. sm good for bm as well)

2x claws and enough points in claw block for 60+ block (good for casters if u dont prefer wiz + sanc) this build is best vs necs and hdins where u dont need dr from ss or res from wiz/sanc. can be used against other casters also
first claw should be some kind of fools with 2os, skills like +2 sin/+venom/+traps (if ur a hybrid)/+shadow master/+claw block. socket this with Um Um
2nd claw should be a claw that has either 2 sin/3 shadow and +3 venom with 2os. Socket this with 2x psn facets

fleshripper blows compared to tucs tbh. you need the AR bonus and the skills already are better than anything fleshripper offers.
umm, what is sanc? lol.
dweb sounds good i suppose if you're going w/ venom.

openwounds and venom are a kickers bread and butter. Flesh offers 75% ow, 50% ds, -50% target def (25% after penalty) and a few other bonuses... its used mainly for the openwounds, and it eats bartucs for that reason.

well no point if you can't hit them rofl.
also, i never regretted doing max block on my nec, because it ruled in PVMelee battles like nothing else.
i think i had a hack to show how much block i have b/c i don't remember how I figured it out XD
anyone know how much you have to have to figure out max block?
it says it works different for different charcters, yet it doesn't let you choose the character class. fail plz

you will have good ar with the build i have. Also... what good is hitting a person if it dont do damage. Openwounds u only need to hit once for it to do anything.

as for max block... all u do is hold ur mouse over the defense in ur char screen, and it will say how much u have... nice to know u hack though.

interesting to say the least. do you think I should invest in fade? I have 13 points left i could put in fade which would put it to base level of 13.
