question about max character points?!

merrickci

I keep reading forums and watching videos of people saying the best build is to put all your points into health because you can max every stat anyways(health, magica, stamina).

how does that seem fair?? so each class will all have the same stats, tank will have the same health and magica as a sorcerer?? someone explain, thanks

I'd guess the reason for that is you can't change your attribute points without going and getting a full (expensive) reset. So since everyone needs health, put the points there, then you can use gear with magicka or stamina, and swap that out with different skill builds.

Would give more flexibility if you wanted to change your build around.

merrickci

yes I see that seems viable, but is it possible to max out each stat with each class?? that just makes no sense

Plus items give items that give magic, stamina or health give the same amount, but the character points give 15 health, but only 10 magic or stamina.

So best value for money still appears to use character points for health. Magic and stamina from armor and enchantments.

Also when your armor is broken (zero) you get no stats from it. So which would you prefer? Have low magic and stamina when your in the middle of nowhere and your armor broken, but still have high health so you can run somewhere? Or low health and no armor so you get one shoted by anything

merrickci

so there is no diversity in stat building? everyone in game just max health then get magica and stamina from gear correct?

Why dont the devs take away stats all together if this is how the game works, whats the point?

It used to be everyone put points into health (when you got 20hp per point)
Now you just get 15hp. Now a lot more people move there points around. Remember 10 extra magic also increases your dps from magic and stamina increases your dps from weapons. But Hp is just HP, no other bonus (except your alive)

Now the stats are a lot more balanced, but I still prefer to put all my points in HP, just to make is easier to swap builds (by swapping armor)

I am sure lots of people have different mixes, just the all in HP one is simple.

Also remember when spending attribute points to take advantage of your racial's unique stamina/health/magic boosting passives. Each point gives more return on these.
