Celtic Heroes

Hey guys its Castle from Balor. Recently switched my build up alot and have been loving it ever since. I am currently rolling with the following stats: Level 171
HP: 5650 MP: 4120 Atk: 2704 Damage: 1081 Defence: 1000 Armour 272(783 with Bark).

I use howling winds, nats touch, bark, bless, lightning strike, and double attack. I only level with my wife's ranger of the same level so I am able to benefit from not only her light heal but also her sharpen weapons. We have yet to run into any sort of problems. I swap between fiery axe of conquest and focus of the mystic depending on if I am auto attacking or casting a spell. My auto damage hits for about 550-800 and double attack always hits for 1100+ I can list my gear if it is necessary but figured stats would be enough. Any input is accepted but gotta be honest, pretty happy with it at the moment.

If you are happy with your build, stick with it! I personally would switch to more focus/caster based (I think you have a fair amount of points in Dex judging from your attack and defense), and swap out double attack for Strangling Vines (which should do more damage overall, as your wife is a ranger).

What gear are you using to gain such high attack?

His totem ability is prob high and using offhand axe which gives attack and dex gives attack. If totem ability is maxed, you should have a decent lixing attack

I'm running melee build at lvl 180 and get 1.5 bars on a solo lix, combo + hero energy.

DL main, 150 axe offhand, vines swarm lightning storm bark as skills. I have just over 1k damage and 3k+ attack. Divine damage from DL aura and totem helps with dmg at Snorri pit. Once I leave at 181 I'll swap to Hrung LS helm and Alchemist Storm gloves.

I'd swap double for vines. Once I have a mob to about 40% hp, I'll move onto the next mob and let vines/bees finish it. More productive that way.

(Edit for more accurate info)

If you can get DL totem at 175, you'll laugh at the mobs in Snorri pit and XP will be fabtabulous. That's where I was getting 1.5 bars solo. Now that I've moved to the tower its only 1 bar per lix due to resists/hp of new mobs.

Can't give you my exact stats atm due to not being able to log in but for gear I use:
Aggy bracer + 5 LS, 250 Nature Ability, 75 Focus
Current event Dex/Attack regen bracer
Current even Dex 140 ammy with pierce skill
Full DL (when in Snorri pit for added Divine dmg)
Royal Spider charm of Earth 144 foc, 8 vines/lightning
Rings +7/6 bees
+600 Totem ability dex/focus x2
150 Fire axe
DL totem
Level 5 rabbit

Damage is 1k+
Defense 500+
Attack 3700+
My totem ability is maxed, and has been maxed for a long time as I've always run a melee build. I like having the extra auto damage and can finish mobs off without having to recast a spell or wait for a spell to kill it off. I could drop three Boneguards in Snorri pit at once that way.

Looking for feedback:

Skills: lightning, storm, vines, breath, touch, wind
Weapons: DL totem / Ice Axe All Jewels are Str jewels.
Stats are using EDL armor but if theres a tank I go occult unless I need chaos resist from AoE.

I still need to max totem skill. Only at 900 at the moment.
My autos are in the 1k range. I would like to see them higher though.

Thinking of changing that runic ring of valor out for haste/heat dmg ring

That's a crap ton of HP...

You could use a runic heat dmg ammy, get a necro totem ring that adds dex/focus, work on getting DG as you can use the extra added focus to add more str/focus into your build to help with skills damage too.

A prot attack bracer with str/dex would be better than Hrung, and a dark Secrets helm for focus/attack.

I use my melee damage as supplemental damage. Once I start getting DG I'll dump more into str. Curious what your skills damages are with that build you have going.
