Skillz Tournament: Get Ready To Play
- Thread starter Kool69
- Start date
Ok, wow thats a lot of posts since last time I looked 
Hmmm, I'm afraid no points to skills above 12 for any reason, so I'll just have to be happy with the skill bonus from ice bolt for now
I'm pretty sure you can mule from your corspe, but if you had atma longer than me and know this is a fact please let us know.
@jiansonz: Thumps up on the necromancer build I want to see how far it goes!
Charges can be used because they are not techinally skills of the character. Items such as Enigma that give you +1 teleport can be used, but NOT the skill teleport because it is level 18 skill, however the + fire ball from Trang-ouls set is allowed because it is a level 12 skill.
P.S. keep an eye on the rules because I add stuff as questions come up, Good Luck everyone!
EDIT: Items may be muled off and on a character as long as they were oringinally found by the character.
I'll be a little lenint towards the horde loving necros, you may use mages and skeletons HOWEVER you cannot choose amp damage, iron maidin, weaken, or terror. Leaves you with only Dim Vision... Also if you have those hordes of minions CE is prohibited. However if wish to avoid these limitations make up your own build like jiansonz did.

I was thinking to myself that an assassin would rule the field as CoS and DC, and D-talon are allowed, and my first roll was a 2. I gotta see if I have time, though. Pity not to try. A low lvl trapper would be a blast, Fire blast, that is...
edit:
Ouch. big problem for assassin, PI's. If you make it that far. FoF is only 200-300 damage without synergies.

so what your saying is the +1 from teleport for enigma isallowed, but not on a sorc, as it woudl jsut add to the teleport skill which cannot be allowed? personally i think it will be better if any +specific skill things that apply to everybody cannot be used ifits normally a lvl18+. otherwise, other characters can use it, except the 1 whos natural skill it is.Kool69 said:

@farting bob I was actually trying to say that no, the +1 teleport from Enigma is not allowed at all, but that the +fire ball from Trang-ouls is allowed for everyone because it is only a level 12 spell. However, you did bring up an interesting suggestion. I want to hear what everyone thinks about it before I make my ruling.

oops
I made a *little* mistake. I first roll an amazon (1), but then a 4. now I've started a pally, charge/zeal/might, but I realize that number 4 is a barb...:teeth:
ok, I was trying to ask if I was allowed to play a pally, but to keep this as fair as for everyone, I've deleted the pally( no big deal, lvl 11, no set/unique/rare worth keeping... and I will start a barb ASAP.
just a question
for barbs/druids/necros/sorcys, if a class specific item (or wand/staff) has really good mods aka worth keeping and also +skill to any skill past lvl 12, are that allowed to use?
I dont think so if you ask me, think of a +1 fire spells/+3 fire mastery orb, leaf staff with right (or wrong) mods, +3 nat resists helm, and so on...
just want to know the official answer to this

A quick update from me since I'm taking a break for lunch. Burninated is up to level 17 in the Outer Cloister. He's bashing things like it's going out of style, and it's great. No set or unique items thusfar. Come to think of it, no decent items either. My "best" item at this point is a some chain mail armor I gambled for, and all it has is +5% poison resist...
This game has been trying to tell me something. I originally rolled a 1 for a 'zon, and since then, I've found more magic bows and javs than I have everything else combined. I've found 3 rings, 1 amulet, one magic helmet and one magic set of leather armor. Otherwise, EVERY magic item I've found has been a bow/crossbow or a jav. Meh. Fate. Who needs it!
Note to other barb players - If you're going the double swing route, note that even though the cost for DS disappears at level 6, it does not become free until level 7!
Question for the tourney runner - are we allowed to trade items between players? If so, would we be allowed to use the traded items?
Cheers, and good luck! :drink:

With a tourney line up like this how could one refuse! Count me in too.
I just rolled a 4 so looks like a Iron/Throw Barb. I will get started right away.

@Resipsa, FireAnt45, Hergrom, and steelsixtyIV - Nope not to late to sign up, have fun!
@ Punchos - That would be nice but sorry no passive + skills above the level 12 set are allowed either, however if the item included a + skill that you had to actually use, like D-Tail, then you could use the item, but not the skill granted by it. Hope this clears it up.
Ok, ive thought about it and have decided that NO skill whatsoever above the level 12 set may be used that is granted by certain items (Enigma, Trang-Ouls, Etc...). The only way to use certain skills above level 12 set is to find charges of it on wand, stave, scepter or whatever other item. So all in all, Skills above level 12 set granted by items = Big No No / Charges of skills above the level 12 set = Legal to use. Just remember charges cost a crapload to repair! I had a staff of Frost Nova level 1, used up half of the 33 charges and it cost me almost 25K to repair!

I'm in. Rolled a 4... hmm not to good at barbs. Reroll. Woohoo! Rolled a 1. Introducing SuzieQ the MA Bowazon!
I am definitely in... just wiped out all my existing characters to get refreshed and excited again, so this tourney comes at a great time.
Rolled a 5 first, but I am not a Necro kind of guy, so I rolled again and got a 7. Not bad, I know Druids...
please put your hands together and give a warm SPF welcome to.......
Nevermore, the druid of limited skills.

I have a question.
Certain bows have the ability to pierce. This has it's own factor and I believe is calculated seperately from the skill. Since it does not add to a skill and is more like a mod as crushing blow or open wounds is would I be able to use said bows?

Yes trades are allowed between characters playing in the Skillz Tourney and you are allowed to use them.
A quick update on Pandora, just killed Blood Raven http://upl.silentwhisper.net/uplfolders/upload0/Screenshot008.jpg
shes doing really well and I'm pretty much killing everything with a smattering of ice bolt the a few pricks from Eagle Hew, my rare dagger. Its actually pretty good, +2 Max damage, +1-3 lighting damage, and +15 poison damage over 4 seconds 1 hit will kill those pesky shamans Also everyone try to update us on your characters, I, and i'm sure other people, would be very happy to hear about them. Stay alive! :thumbsup:
