pvm builds

[Cerone]

Hey guys i am just starting here and was wondering what would be a good build for this server as far as pvm is concerned. i am used to the tamer pvm aspect but was wanting to explore other options. feel free to include tamer builds though i just need a general idea of where im going with it.

There are two routes I would advise to take to be the best pvm build.  Since its an all skills shard taming is only a plus.  You can choose to go the dexxer route with a suit that is geared out to maximize melee with high hci / dci and amazing resists.  Using necro and bushido to help you stay alive as well so fc / fcr helps same with LMC.

You can also go the mage route focusing on SDI, LMC and LRC or reg bag if you choose.  But due to the mass amounts of spells you cast even a reg bag will run out of regs sometime.  Let your pet tank the mobs while you cast on them and then heal the pet when necessary.  This is usually safer than dexxers but depending on the gear the damage may be less.

Ok i got you. I have some experience with the tamers. I was wondering what some of the acronyms are i know what the lrc and lmc are what is sdi,hci/dci,and fc/fcr? i never really played anything more recent than pol uor servers im a little lost with the complexety of this uo lol its awesome though.

...what is sdi,hci/dci,and fc/fcr?

sdi: spell damage increase
hci: hit chance increase (capped at 75)
dci: defence chance increase (capped at 75)
fc: faster casting (spells)
fcr; faster casting recovery (spells)

Both fc and fcr increase the rate at which you can cast your spells and decreases the amount of time between spells before another is cast. There is a cap, but I am not sure what it is. It may be 4/6.
