#107722, "Poisoner, right?"

Tough road to hoe. I've done 3 now in the middle ranks. Can be very powerful but also more frustrating than any other class. This seemed like your first try at it. You should try it again in a few months and focus on pk'ing in the 20s and 30s with neuro/fear. Also check out the wiki faqs at QHCF for poisoner tips and tricks.

I was hoping to try poisoner/thug, but I have trouble with low HP races, and don't have the playstyle to make this build successful yet. I think I might try again with a svirf to mitigate some of the downsides of low hp and uncaballed.

Absolutely loved fear poison and neuro.

I just don't have the patience to die to so many things that can one round purely via damage output from skills. *sigh*

#107749, "Sure. Try an arial."
In response to Reply #2


          

I've done arial, human, and duergar. Arial was the best for me at all levels. The INT was a huge boost too as poisoner skills can be tough to improve and it is so expensive.

I would suggest poisoner and knife first. At 42 focus on thug up to parting block. You won't need cheap shot due to parting block and neuro. Then maybe round out poisoner up to grenade or just mind control + plant if you want (would need DV for extra thief points).

I would not do svirf, just me. shrug
