Back OT:-


SPR for a Fighter is actually pretty decent if you're willing to sacrifice either STR or END. Some of the really good tankers (pre-cap) were END/SPR hybrids.


An Axer going 25 SPR/rest STR is actually more dangerous than a full STR Fighter in PvP despite full STR doing statistically more damage more consistently. When it's human x human, not knowing when the next strike is going to crit and potentially underestimating/overestimating the crit rate/your healing capability, the occasional crit will more likely kill your target than the expected blow of anticipated damage.


A Power Hit ---> Weapon Swap ---> Accurate Strike chain that crits will bring most people low.


Higher chance to crit is also very good for the Fighter's trump skill Devastate, where you have a good chance to crit on multiple targets making higher % chance more valuable than a few additional points of damage.


Tankers going End/Spr lessen slightly the hammering they take from magic damage and get a slightly enhanced Mana pool.

I did that a lot when I first started playing Fiesta.

Wrong forum.

And no.

A pure build always defeats a hybrid build.

However, one group of individuals will swear wholeheartedly that the 5% critical is worth more, despite hard calculations done by numerous people. I recall in the early days these calculations were both based on theoretical damage and accumulated experimental data.

Both proved that, for instance, at level 79, 94 STR > 69 STR/25 SPR.

The same applies for INT.

If you still doubt, ask yourself this:

Why else were all the first Legends of Isya pure builds?

ROFL, funny one.

ROFL, funny one.

I have Excel spreadsheets, player testimonies, and conducted experiments.

You, on the other hand, only have your opinion and your donated cleric account.

Furthermore, interesting to note how Seva, Fireriot, Patchouli, StarLeona, and various other damage-dealing individuals were all pure builds.

But I suppose your opinion with no factual basis outweighs mine. After all, you hold a great and almighty level 78 cleric. I cannot compete.

[MikeyG]

Uhm i wasnt bragging about having a 78 cleric was i ? Its not
much anyways capped players and lvl 7x players arnt a dime a dozen these days. And i forsure couldnt compete with your many high lvls.
Im talking about experiance where i out damage pure int mages.
and can easily beat most pure builds in pvp. And maybe your
spreadsheets and experiments on a freaking game are correct about
other people, but not myself. Because i have compared with a pure int
mage at lvl 50 and 30. Both times i out dmged and would beat him in pvp
because of crits.
