Tatoo's

Player Questions Started Last reply 9 posts
I know you can get 2 tatoos total, my question is which would be the best options for a Warsmith and a buffer/healer Prophet?

Also should I buy them from the NPC store or wait for the merchant of mammon?
After level 40, you can wear three tattoos total!

If you are poor, it might be better to buy at least some of the tattoos, where you don't mind losing a bit more of one stat, from the NPC - but for others, you should really use mammon.

For a prophet, the standard tattoos are -STR/+DEX, -STR/+CON and -MEN/+WIT. Notice that you may or may not get any of the first two, but that the third is pretty much a must if you want to cast at a good speed. Some combinations:

-5STR/+4CON (NPC) & -4MEN/+4WIT (Mammon)
-5STR/+4CON (NPC) & -5STR/+4DEX (NPC) & -4MEN/+4WIT (Mammon)
-5STR/+4CON (NPC) & -2MEN/+2WIT (Mammon) & -3MEN/+3WIT (Mammon)

This is because most prophets do not actively engage in the fight - if you wish to do this, of course you might change a different set of tattoos.

For a warsmith, you will want tattoos that increase STR and possibly even DEX for PvE, to maximise your damage output:
+3STR/-3CON & +2STR/-2STR, +4DEX/-4CON is a pretty common choice, or the same with only one tattoo of +STR/-CON at +4/-4.

Later on in sieges, if you have to summon, it might be good to raise CON instead - I'm not sure.
You can get 3 tattoos total after 40 (I think it's just 2 when you're below 40).

For the prophet I'd go +4 wit -4 men, +4 con -4 str if it's a 2box -or actually played, but not going to be fighting.

Not sure about WS, it's a personal choice. But of course for better killing +4 str -4 con, the opposite for better survivability :p (but that's a bad nerf if you want to do any damage - you don't specify what you want to achieve with the tattoos) I guess I'm not much of a help here.

+2STR/-2STR,



I think thats a mistake, because i cann't see the value of plusing something only to minus it.
It's also not possible. I mean +STR/-CON. Thank you!

WHat would you recommend for a Prophet that does PVP & solo (using heavy) as tattoo's?
dex and wit increases
Actually it doesn't matter anymore hehe I wont be pvping, for a Prophet it's a hard thing to do in the first place. :(
Well I went with +3 Str -3 Con / +2 Str -2 Con / +4 Dex -4 Con because I have access to prophet buffs all the time.

Now for my next question with prophet buff access all the time B Grade Weapon / Armor? I heard with buffs go polearm..

But I was used C grade duals to level to 52 with I did more damage with those than I did with my C grade mace...

Not sure if B grade changes anything, it seems almost if the blunt masterys just dont give you enough patk to make up for the lack of crits.

Just a noobies observation.
