Best Assistance for Dwarfs?

Dwarf Classes Started Last reply 17 posts
I've decided to reroll a Dwarf, I was waiting for the Kemaels(sp?) but decided to play a Bounty Hunter. I've had a dwarf in the past (40 artisan) and it was pretty fun.

I imagine SE would be choice for Dwarf? VR and poles seems to be best, but i'd like some input not to limit myself only what i've seen.

Thanks in advance.

Dwarfs for the win.
SE or WC will work, although I find that SE is better for the heals plus VR earlier in the skill tree. Poling is one way, but just straight up blunt on 1x HP mobs works fine. Look for blunt weak mobs.
WCer for WS and SE for BH
vr is a must for both dorfs but you prolly want the recharges for the bh
I would go WC. Mainly because it is the easiest to start a group with them.

When you are duoing you will be in a place that drops pots
hp herbs are fine for WS but you wont keep a BH mp up with herbs
Even for a WS you'll probably still want a SE for recharges. Crafting is far to slow without it.
I quit my SH when i got my wife to play oh 1.5 years ago and started a dwarf, she plays a BD. Cant really aoe or what not but the dances she has plus her damage output seems to be a good duo. Worked for us and we have fun with it.... but thats only if you have another person playing not boxed
SE is he best for both BH and WS, sure SE's dont have haste or Acumen, but they do have something far better Re-charges. If you want to craft or spoil re-charges are a must.

You won't be AOEing after CT1 with just you and your SE anyways, so you have to stick the single mobbing it. Sure with an active EE or Bishop you could (your SE could give VR to you)

But Yeah without re-charges Crafting and Spoiling will go VERY slow.
just craft using the cheap farmers in giran like everyone else

i still think WS should have haste for their tin can tbh
I went from 1 to 76 with my SE in tow. Wouldn't change I thing if I had it to do over again. (I take that back, I would choose something different than BH.. lol)

SE has ok heals, decent buffs (VR) and gets recharges over a WC. Since spoil is your biggest skill, you want to put it to full use, and you need an SE or you'll be resting for MP constantly.

Does any WS actually lvl with the Mech Golem?

I've tired but it takes too much of my XP. I kill 1 mob at a time with the Golem, and 1 mob at a time without it, and i get the same xp. Sure I'm killing way Harder mobs, but its not worth the cost of the Beast SS and the crystals, for the same xp.
I agree with SE > WC, then you can solo aoe since you'll have heals.

with equal buffs the golem will output up to 115% of your dps (depending on crit variables)
if that doesnt make up for the 15% xp penalty than i don't know what does ><

no it's not cost effective
I still prefer the WCer. Because with the wcer you can form groups.... If you form a group then you can aoe. In aoe groups you rarely run out of mp. : )

Plus soloing blows.
I carry a profit and use the tin can. costs alot but i sell enough to keep going and when groups are scarace i can duo with the golum, face harder mobs and make great xp.

I am leveling with my Golem and I doesn't notice the exp that it takes away because my killrate on the mobs I could kill without the Golem is 2-3 times faster than without the Golem.

When I go out for exp I make sure to go to fields where I can handle the mobs without the Golem just in case the Golem dies.

It costs allot to use the Golem, but you will lvl much faster.
I DEFIANTELY use golem - if nothing else it gives me a chance in pvp (well, more so atleast... heck, golem and I beat up a better buffed necro a few days ago O.O but I dotn konw his lvl lol) He is definately an expensive little tin can, but since I kill faster I get more drops too.

I do agree with littlebunny, soloing blows, but with golem it's almost not soloing. You atleast have something else to help you fight, even if you can't talk to it. Well... I guess you CAN talk to it... but that sounds more like a crazy summoner thing to do.
