I am at lvl 22. I have Battle Tower. I have just started to explore the Orabas area. I am basically a 2 handed sword guy. I have read all the posts on here about point distribution. Seems theres so much to consider. Im thinking of spending the 5000 gold to redistribute. Im looking for suggestions.

I have 31 points to spread out. Heres the ones I was thinking

two handed mastery
mana effiency
ghost
fireball
magic missle
thousand strikes
exploding arrows
lockpick

Also Im thinking when I lvl to start putting points in just strenght and intellagence. So far this game I have been keeping them pretty even. I have never played a game were you have to "build" your character so this is new to me

So gang....

Should I reskill now or wait and if I do what is the best picks for a warrior guy to live and flourish

Thanks

There no right or wrong in selecting skill. If you prefer hybrid, just do it your way. I myself prefer pure warrior, so I be most likely ditch off unrelated skill such as magic spell and ranger skill.

The int is purely for raising the magical damage portion of a weapon, and for mp regen purpose if you dislike using a lot potions. If without the magical attack exist on weapon, so if you using purely melee weapon, you can have less focus on it.

Hmm... good question I can't answered correctly because I didn't play a truth warrior yet wink.
But I have experienced that a 2-handed sword is fun! More fun than a 1-handed + shield. For example the sword of Arben is very nnice! I think this sword have randomly properities like most weapons and ohter gear, but my arben sword has 3 (empty) enchantmentslots! I put a Level 10 Normal Damege to it (it gives +27 to Damage!), very powerful sword now grin !

I love to combine skills from different types (Mage, Warrior, Ranger, Dragon Slayer...)
AND it is also a personal thing!
For example I play my second time with some other skils now! First I play with Magic Missile, but now no points in that skill, but in Magic Blast!
And I love the skill Ranger Stealth!
This skill is not only useful for a Ranger, but also for a Mage! Useful for all attacts from a distance, like Magic Missile to! But you need a bow so you can first focus on an enemy. So than, with Ranger Stealth you can "see" (focus on) a enemy before they see YOU! Most of the time, because some enemies have a better sight and it's also depending on how much skillpoints you have in Ranger Stealth wink
For example: the 'Dragon Elf' on Sentinel Island have a good sight! With 2 points in Ranger Stealth, that's not enough to suprize them laugh.

Whatever works for you, but you are a long way from the final battles, you still have Stone, Raze, Kaela, Geznid, Kali,Ba'al,Barnabus,and the other botanical crazy to deal with, I am sure that there is a lot of ways to beat the game, I didn't reskill until after closing the rifts in Aleroth heading for Hall of Echoes

I think you can reskill more than once , it just costs twice as much the second time. I could be wrong though.

Sounds like theres a whole bunch of this game left.

Each time you re-skill, the cost doubles.

If I may insert, instead of putting points in for the Ghost, put them instead in the Regeneration skill under the warrior class. It's passive, no mana cost and it works all the time, no time limit. Better buy in my opinion.

By relying on ghost, I rather encourage you to make tons of potions out, which is much better than spending on a summon which has time limitation. You can creates hundreds of potions with the potion trick within 5 to 10 minutes. And with some ranks on potion efficiency, you can close to fully heal your hp with just use of potion.

As for summons, I will only encourage getting demon if you want, as it seems more useful to me.
