max block or more life?

bruins46 · 11-06-2009, 05:49 AM

im currently using a bone necro in which has max bloxk but i see that i am lacking and life and usaully die in 1 or 2 hits,when i do get hit.i was wondering if i would be better off remaking my necro and adding more vitality instead of dex.

since you're bone necro, imo you should get vita. this is due to you probably having bone armor as a first line of defense. that coupled with a couple of tanks ie merc and golem, and your ranged attacks, you shouldn't be getting close to enemies that often to warrant max block.

alright cool thank you for the input.

If you're PvM you usually don't have to max block, like Saracen said. If you're PvP it can go either way. Both builds are pretty successful in PvP.

i am not pvm i am strictly pvp and i do pretty well i just wonder if i would do better with more life.i have 301 dex and 243 and i wanted to know why my dex had to be so high for me to achieve max block.because like i said earlier i am lacking in life,i usaully die within 1 or 2 hits.but i guess this build will do.thanks guys.

What are you using for your shield?

Don't tell me you're trying to block with Spirit. O_o

301 dex = max block with a monarch for a level 80 necro.

So

First off, stop using spirit you moron.
Second, after you remake him, get him to ~lvl 90 before duelling.

wow someone is grouchy

That's just his way of pointing out others misstakes. I mean even the worst of guides know you don't use spirit, or any kind of monarch besides SS for max block.

Still if someone feels offended they are ofc free to report the post, and I must ask you not to start a public debate over someone's actions. This should be as mentioned be reported, or discussed with a mod or admin through PM's. After which the mods or admins will act as they see fit.

I'd have to agree with dain on this one though...

Blocking with Spirit monarch...
