A little birdie told me you were the d2 guru and you might be able to help me with a lil project I've started.
I got spoiled with DAoC and SWG because it was easy to find a website that had a character builder on it where you could play with templates. Anytime I search for one for D2 all I get are downloads that want to access my save file and that's not what I'm looking for. I got pointed to one that lets you invest in skills to see their effect and its a nice job but I want one that covers all aspects, stats and skills. So I decided to make my own.
I'm working on the stats part right now (now being put on hold til after exams next week), this is the information I've gathered so far:
Starting Attributes for classes (for example Amazon)
Strength: 20
Dexterity: 25
Vitality: 20
Energy: 15
Hit Points: 50
Stamina: 84
Mana: 15
For Each Character Level
Life +2
Stamina +1
Mana +1.5
Attribute Point Effect
1 Vitality point gives 3 Life
1 Vitality point gives 1 Stamina
1 Energy point gives 1.5 Mana
With this information I can have a user select a class and store starting points and values for increases in variables. The only thing is that Str and dex are not covered. I have only basic knowledge of their affect on a couple of classes; Assassins 1 str and 1 dex increases damage by 1. Amazons 1 dex increases AR and damage (is it that dex increases AR and that in turn increases damage?)
Was wondering if you could clarify this for me or point me to sites or forums that would hold the answer for me.
