leveling stats

Postby nalawin » Wed Mar 14, 2012 8:26 am

none of the guides seem to talk about stats or anything for leveling purposes, so this is what i have seen work for me so far as i am leveling, hope this helps other who are new and currently leveling.

Luck: as long as i have a 0% glancing blow chance it has worked out well

intelligence: mostly ignored while leveling, keeping as high as possible without sacrificing other stats.

Wisdom: Keeping this number positive so it says increases instead of decreases

Perception: 20% seems to be a good figure, below is great, but anything above 30% really hinders your damage.

I was running a decrease of like 15% in wisdom and a 40% perception number for a while cause i was so focused on high luck and intel, but once i used the above numbers, thanks to some help from guildies, it has helped a ton while leveling.

Sounds good, I like to run ~50% luck though. An increasing of 10-20% in wisdom might be nice, but I wouldn't know, I haven't leveled a summoner recently.

Also, pump all points into luck :3

of course if you can get your luck or wisdom higher do so, but i found that while leveling gear has a lot of 1 stat and almost nothing in the others, so you can get 1 stat high but the others suffered. The above seems to be the base line, at least for me, to make it easy to kill mobs up to 1 level ahead, and 2 level ahead doable.

Also the further i have leveled (currently 37) the gear seems to get more diverse stats, so it is a little easier to balance.

You want to use potions for luck, and grab gear with high wisdom/stam/prec, those 2 are more important. with luck potions (dirty cheap the ones alchem make or if you can afford cash shop version) you can keep all stats high. the alchem luck potions will work with ur 4 hour intel/stam buff with out geting rid of the other

Enough luck for 0% glancing blow (putting yourself at around 15-17% crit?) just isn't enough imo, it makes killing far too slow. Your damage is essentially cut into however much the difference between regular hits and critical hits are. Which is a lot. With the increased crit rubies for DoTs and Vamp/Dark Renewal, you'd be at (or close to) 100% crit.

But that's just me, you'd probably have more experience.

Daily Elixirs for extra int help, I never bothered with Alchemical Potions till I started doing end-game instances/PvP, but if you have money to burn, why not?

Is the 'put all your stats points into Luck' and try to balance rest with gear advice outdated, or still valid?

Well i had a previous set of gear that was for some reason insanely stacked with luck. I had like a 80% crit chance.

It worked phenominally for leveling. The recruit boxes rewarded for quest put an end to the fun however, now my stats are balanced. I still do fine but i started to put all my level gained stats into luck. It seems most gear is becomming Int/Perc with some wis..ive asked about this in another thread that failed to garner and response but im thinking Luck for a majority of my stats then some in wis (possible with wis from runes)

Ive come across another situations thats kind of altering my decisions...was there an XP even this weekend?....i need to be level 19 doing level 14 and 15 quests and one shotting everything...which makes it hard for me to actually see whats working.


In a game like this where making a mistake can cost real money....i wish there was more upt to date guides and people who helped with builds and such. Im nervous im going to make a mistake and have to buy a damn cash shop potion.
