SE, PP or EE

Player Questions Started Last reply 17 posts
Im thinking of doing a new char buffer. So what is better for a fighter box, SE, PP or EE? and Iwitch 1 is good in pvp too (I know that buffers are not good for pvp, but the better1) Show me pros and cons pls! thx a lot
you don't specify melee or archer...both are fighters but have very different needs...

warcryer for a MELEE, has haste, focus, deathwhisper, and vr...SE is decent too but no haste, does have the advantage of having windwalk, tho....however windwalk pots are cheaper than greater haste pots 8)

prophet is good for ARCHER cause it has all the DD buffs + windwalk/btb/bts/zerk/greater buffs/all resists...SE is nice because it can recharge but you can do fine just off herbs until you get high enough for body to mind even if you use prophet.

ee is the best of those in group pvp because of it's healing ability...as a buffer for PvP, wc...if you mean in assisting in damage dealing in PvP then WC...for 1v1 it is close between WC and PP...WC has drains and superior fighting ability, but PP has mana burn and heals.

so to sum it up, prophet or wc would be my advice...prophet for an archer, wc for a melee...SE would also work for either but i dont feel that it would work as well as the real buffers in either case. EE is a horrible option for either class.
oh thx a lot for adevices... the fighter is melee...and orc is not a good option for me cause I dont like them :p (nothing against them, the thing is I played a lot with an OL, so Im kindda tired of them)...
I'd say WC is the best choice for melee. Else I think I'd go with SE (since you can get GSAP to replace the prophet's haste) for the vr. Prophet would save you the GSAP costs but with no vr you'll need more heals and ultimately more downtime. But really, WC as a melee buffer can do both what the pp and the se can do, so kinda like getting two for the price of one.

EE is just too sucky, I'd get one maybe as 3rd healer esp if you had a caster class, but really for melee they're kinda useless. They're missing essential damage buffs, no haste, no vr, etc.
One pro for using an SE is "Vampiric Rage". Many a time has that come in handy.. But a PP would be my own personal preference. Especially with PoF ;) lol
I would go for Se.. Seems its overally the best..
You may have to level the WC up further than the PP or SE before you start to get really good buffs from it. They are awesome buffer, though.

PP is too one-dimensional for my likes.

I think SE is a universally good choice. Their buffs are good, they get "par" heals, can recharge, can root/windshackle/mana burn/erase/purify and also Invocation - both the WC and PP lack that spell.
thx a lot! Im doing a SE...so what weapon and armor should I used? grade C? B? A?
WC is the best pick. if you dont want an orc, go with SE and buy haste pots. prophet got the best buffs compared to SE but it will be hard at higher levels without VR.
Buffs, Heals, Pct Rez, VR, Greater Empower 3

That 20% rez starts to look really good when ur in a back cata room and don't feel like fight/running all the way back.

Those make the SE looks extremely good when you throw in Attack Speed Potions.

WC is good but the whole amulet thing just makes me wanna croak.
What about the armor C, B and A for SE????and weapon? should I use bow? acumen sword?
there is no different between books and amulets.

BW robe and homu acumen. thats all you ever will need. ofc you can get better if you like.
Cgrade armor either use Divine or karmian. I like divine better, it looks nice and ...um...yea, it looks nice :>
Myseterious sword acumen, only uses two shots and is cheaper to make. ^^
yea. looks like a toy-sword tho :P
wow thx a lot! and another question...what about dyes???
+WIT/MEN is a must, then you can either go +5 WIT/ - 7 MEN (no point wasting good dyes on a box) or +4 WIT/-5 MEN, +4DEX/-5STR (helps the box keep up and not lose AF, depends on how you hunt) or +4CON/-5STR (helps carry more and maybe die a bit less).
personaly i use +4wit/-4men, +4con/-5str, +4dex/-5str on both my Prophet and SE. works fine for me.
