thaile....with my END/STR build i can solo in LS2...also at lvl 15 i could tank Smart Phinos/Solo...Crit rates like i said are fine without pumpin SPR

....an yes some monsters cast/have magic attacks *obviously you have'nt been playin long or jus not payin attention* but still its not all that neccesary...but lets see you try soloin in LS2 with a SPR build you wont last long....let alone kill anything...meh but to each his own i suppose
Divinity give 40-50ish SP per skill rank so point about the STR per lvl is moot...so is the point about the clerics weapon all i can say is wait till higher lvls when you with the SPR build are killing incredibly slow...
*crit rate without bein able to tank/dmg what you are fightin is pointless*
