hey guys

[Eldest]

I'm new here, but been playing AO for about a year or so. I've made numerous chars over that time three in the 90's and one 100 lol

Anyway i finally wanna make something that i'll love and stick with, so im thinking staff main since i wont need another big heal (i hope).

This is what i have in mind for PvE and a little AB FL:

:bst: :malehero: :vik:
:inv: :pro: :can:
:exo: :mnk: :prn:


I'm a big fan of passive heals in PvE, it seems to counter most bosses AOE damage flawlessly, early on anyway, like i said 100 is my highest char ever. I'm a little worried about not having another oracle or shaman, but i really dont see anybody i would want to replace.

Also for my mains skills i'm not real sure what i need to be doing. I'm thinking 60 BoL for sure. I want mana shield, just not sure where i need to stop it. Since i want to tank some i'm guessing SoP on my monk is must also?

AB FL is all about luck anyway so i'll just sit back and hope to get lucky :p

Anyway i mainly just wanted to see what some of you more experienced guys thought of what i came up with before i get started. Thanks for any tips.

AUTO

- ABFL rule number 1. put the MAIN BEHIND IN THIRD ROW.
- AI rule number 1. monk AI is the stupidest thing there is in auto.

BT-spartan-vik
cannon-exo-inventor
prophet-main-princess

something like this?

MANUAL

- take out princess for minstrel or elementalist.
- put inventor backline.
- take out BT for spartan.

now you have a manual pvp viable build.

main-spartan-N.vik
cannon-elem-prophet
exo-monk-inventor

OR

spartan-main-N.vik
cannon-elem*-prophet
exo-monk-minstrel

some minstrel users prefer to have the exo at the elem position for column puri
