Allo Mates Hello everyone, first off I'd like to say that this Guide is based on the data that Stephen Hawking and I have compiled together for the past years (obviously not). This thread was made to guide or be a reference to all other future NightWalkers that might have trouble with their SP allocation and training spot decisions. At the moment this guide doesn't contain all that much information but I will sure to add in more information as I play my own character. Please note that this build is optional and there may be some errors so you are free to correct me by posting below. -Manny(Ratatosk) *Please remember to read my "Reasons for this build" paragraphs"* Table of Contents 1.

At least this'll help me on the Skills. I think the training spots will be the same except being a few levels ahead of sins. Lol@ToS:DoTNW name.

I see.. Hey what would you suggest. It can be based on your opinion cause I'm still thinking anyway :P. Between a lowdex NW with 50 base and the claw I mentioned.. Or a low dex DW with 50 base as well with a 115-117 ST. I'm ripping my hair off from one of these.. I already have the dex equips for them xD so yea let me know what you think.

Vamp. is now 30%, but it's still very strong. It hits targets 4 times, so it's 30% x 4 = 120% on each of 6 targets and Critical stacks on it! It's not as strong as other mobbing skills still, but it's the only one that recovers HP! xD Edit: Maxed Crit. = +100%, so yeah, 130% on 50% chance. xD

cocofun 07/19/09 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

Vampire is either 30% or 40%. Cant remember.

orangeking11 Jul 19 2009 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

If Vamp. was still 90%, if you hit all Crits. on 1 target, you'd be doing 190% x 4 = 760% on 1 target. Yeah, that's pretty godly for a skill that also recovers HP. xD Edit: Nerfed Vamp is still a potential 520% on a single target. xD

If you think about it, it's a nice plus that it got nerfed. With the nerf and Poison Sling being a main focus for training in 3rd, there's not much for damage whores to really go for (especially Poison Sling. You can have the godliest equips ever, but your Poison damage will still be based on monster's HP = a not-so-wealthy NW can train pretty much just as quick!). xD

dragony said: "wats nerfed? or nerf" When a skill's effect or damage is reduced. In this case, Vampire's damage went from 90% a hit at max to 30%. xD
