OK, here's the deal:
I've already started building my Pdaggermancer.
I have already decided on many things such as equipment I'll be using and if I am going for max block or max vita(after a recommendation of one of the forum's members, who said that max block is better for melee mancers, I decided to go for max block.). So far so good.
But I still have few questions that I really need u guys to try and help me with... in my previous thread nobody except one member posted, so I didn't get my needed information...
So I'd really appreciate it if u guys could read this and try to advise me. Here goes:
1) Stat issues:
Str- As much as I need for my equipment.
Now dex and vit- I know I need to invest as much as possible into dex in order to have a high block. How much do I need to invest if I want to use homo? and how do I know when to stop investing points into dex? Also, how many points should be invested into vit? I mean, even with max block, nobody can survive with 20 points in vit, right? so..... Don't know about that...
Enr- nothing I guess?
2) All equipment is already set(Shako, Homo, Blackbog, Treachery, trang gloves,trang belt or arach or string, gores or sandstorm) except for amu and rings. So- Should I go for angelic trio? Or maybe a +3 pnb sk or a crafted +2 with some other mods, and some other rings? if so, which rings? and please feel free to make comments on the quipment list above, if something needs to be replaced... But I'm not that rich so... be gentle ^ ^. most of the things I wrote in the list are things I already have in my possession(No marrow as u can see^ ^...)... That's it. hope someone could help me out here... I think I'll save some stat points in the mean time.

THANK YOU ALL!!!:thumbsup:

Total Blocking = [(Blocking * (Dexterity - 15)) / (Character Level * 2)]

Blocking is % chance to block on your shield.

Blocking is capped at 75%.

You can see your current block % by hitting 'A'. In the character screen under defence, if you mouse over it it will say your % chance to be hit by <inster monster name here> is xx%, chance to block is xx%.

Basically you need 2 dex per level once you have max block.

Max block dex needed:

Dex = 15 + 150 * CharLevel / ShieldBlock%

But HOW DO I KNOW when I have max block??To check your block, go to your stats screen, hover your mouse over "defense", and your blocking should be displayed. If it says 75% blocking, then you have max block.

So basically u r saying that I need to pump up dex with every additional stat point I get until I have 75% block, and then +2 points in dex per lvl and the other 3 can go to vit?

And plzzzzz guys answer my equipment questions too it's very important and I'd hate to start another thread about the same subject...

Angelic combo will give you more AR. Even with the boost from PDagger you might want a bit extra, so you can't go wrong with those two.

Pretty much. Every time you level, check the blocking %. Once blocking is at 75%, there's no need for additional dex. If you can already hold your gear (enough strength), the the rest of your points can go into Vitality for more life.
