Ah, the wonders of apoc, lapis shield of the ages is my temporary solution. I know it wont work while i'm moving but otherwise it should protect me decently. Some people say tht the advantage of being a LAW is high mana. in many cases this is true. In this particular situation however... the advantage is extreme killing speed. A level 45 warrior with 300 strength does a minimum of 135 dmg per swing. With a civerb's cudgel we multiply that by three, thus getting 405 dmg per swing. Keep in mind that a Hell Blood Knight has only 800 HP. That means only 2 hits per BK! Wait what about the critical hit? 45% of the time you will do double damage 810. That is a one hit BK. So wait, why does it matter that I will have low AC again? It won't. With ~3 hits per 2 BKs even without haste it is nearly impossible to get mobbed. So maybe, just maybe, I dont even need those gold rings of perfection. Maybe I can use gold titains rings instead 2 of them should boost my strength to 300. As you can see I am still slightly undecided about my equipment. Has anyone besides me tried/though of trying this? Is there anything I missed or a comment or two?
I came across this idea because some say that a civerb's cudgel can only be properly used by a rogue. In my own humble opinion the only one truely capable of wielding the powerful weapon effectivly is the warrior. The mele damage of the rogue is just too pitiful for my liking. Or is it just that a warrior in mail just looks so darn
cool? The world will never know.
And as for the HOS being esy to find I will have to disagree with you. I have spent a ridiculous amount of time searching for it and still have yet to find one. All it takes is perseverence(most likely mispelled).
