There is no point to use spirit theft? Looks like i can restore much more sp with only sp draught.

With infinite pots, Spirit and Mana Theft are obsolete.

Thats not rly fair. Im using 40% block build and pf sg is easy. Also in theory mage has endless spam if its regen higher than mana price.

So, I just logged in and wanted to play some HV after about a month and I just found out that my skills reset! I'm still level 91, but was this a known thing? Here is a screencap.  Edit: So, a different thread suggests that this is actually intentional due to the new changes. That given, this is a great chance to ask, where should I put all my stats? I previously had a large portion of my stats in strength, endurance, and dexterity. I prefer to dual-wield swords and use heavy armor, if that helps.

It's okay Alexeon, happened to everyone. i wish he could've had a popup explaining this as soon as you start the game.
Basically the creators(s) changed a lot of stuff, including the way equipment is shared and leveled. Basically, they didn't like how new players could get gear far beyond what they could naturally obtain by using shops on the forum. So now, any new gear you find will have static stats and won't scale with your level. If you see some insanely powerful gear in the equipment shop, don't be a dummy like me and buy it - you probably can't use it because your level isn't high enough.
The tradeoff is that it seems weapon armor and equipment stats have been slightly increased. The intention is that players start relying more on stuff they obtain by playing the "right" way instead of twinking.

Thanks, yeah, I found that out just now. I edited my original post.
So, since I have this opportunity, any suggestions on how I should divvy up my stats?

I would just try to make them what they were before the reset. I was light armor + 2H, so my strength and dex with highest, then endurance and agility. Wisdom was a little lower, and intelligence is about 60 points under all of them.

I rely on Cure a lot during battles. Does it run off of INT or should I focus my remaining stats on WIS?

Looks like cure now depends only on supportive prof. Btw, you ll get it much faster now.

willow may be thought as the complementery of oak, if you really want. but still, any prefix is possible in any kind of staffs afaik QUOTE(hitokiri84 @ May 18 2015, 00:08)  With infinite pots, Spirit and Mana Theft are obsolete.
i don't think so. potions have quite a hgher cooldown if compared to theft processes. unless you equip both greater/heroic or whatever it is, theft procs are still useful. less than before, but still...

'better HP potions' ability cost has been raised. so, you can either buy 3 APs or lower the tier of one ability of your choice (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

It's not really that OP since mages have high action speed. Sometimes you can perform several actions without the regen ticking a single time.

I maxed out the better hp potions ability before the new patch so is that pretty much the reason why I have -3 ability points? This post has been edited by PersonaFan08: May 18 2015, 01:33

So, after testing stuff out, the new potions are pretty weak, aren't they? I had to use too many of them when it really shouldn't have been so difficult.
