Attributes

  • Around 50-70 points for equipping gear, max required STR is 108 (for Grand Matron Bow).
• Dexterity: Affects Attack Rating (your chance to hit) and Defense Rating (monster’s chance to hit player with physical attack). It also increases chance to block, allows to equip certain weapons (javelins, daggers, claws, and ranged) and their damage.

  • None, you’ll get enough mana from equipment.

Important Breakpoints

Breakpoints are the values at which spells, attacks and other animations become a frame faster or slower. Values must meet or exceed numbers to achieve that breakpoint or will cause no change until you meet or exceed the next breakpoint.

• Faster Cast Rate (FCR): 0%
• Increased Attack Speed (IAS): 46% (6.75 attacks per second) or 80% (6.94 ApS)
• Faster Hit Recovery (FHR): 32% (7 Frames) or 52% (6 Frames)

Equipment

Charms

Additional:
Grand Charms with +X to Maximum Damage and +X to Attack Rating (extra stat as + to Life / Faster Run/Walk is a great bonus)
Small Charms with Resistances (extra stat as + to Attack Rating / Maximum Damage / Better Chance of Getting Magic Items is a great bonus)
Gheed’s Fortune (MF)

For swap weapon setup use Call To Arms Runeword Weapon with Lidless Wall or Spirit Runeword Shield for Battle Command and Battle Orders buffs, but don’t forget to recast them.

Mercenary

A player can hire NPCs as mercenaries to fight alongside them. Only one mercenary can be active at a time and hiring a new one results in the dismissal of the current one. Weapons (related to merc type), body armor, and headgear can be equipped on the mercenaries, and they become much more useful with proper gear.

Important note: Ethereal items (have better base stats, such as damage or defense and lower requirements) do not lose durability when equipped on a Mercenary, greatly boosting their stats.

Mercenary: Desert Mercenary (Act 2), Offense: Might Aura.

• Weapon
  • Best: Pride Runeword (Ethereal Giant Thresher or War Pike)
  • Alternatives: Hustle Runeword (any Polearm or Spear)
