> > There is some half decent stuff in camelot. > * For rank 1-10, there IS good stuff. Look at the list, some of that can be put to very good use. > > Especially when you are a lowbie, becuase there are items there to improve every one of your stats. > * There is no way to roll perfect stats, and most people don't train their stats to full. Maybe the only thing you play are elves, which it is very easy to get your stats high of the bat, but almost all the other races, especially giants, there is still LOTS of training to go. And some people prefer to use gear to boost stats, and save trains for con, or hp/mana. > > And people know amethyst rings are better for hit roll, but they get the skull rings/garnet rings because they want dam. > > lowbie wouldnt be haveing amethysts unless bought/traded.. > * I was replying to his hero re-eqing part here, not lowbies. > > and a lowbie should be more interested in armor class before hit dam. > I don't see many A-Ps, or warriors going for AC. I don't and I do just fine. having a 15-20 dam roll at rank 6 with parry and shield block perfected produces a better fighter than a rank 6 with 8 dam, and -50 AC. > > Or else they would get the damn amethyst. And what do you care anyway? Why are you complaining if people want to eq themselves with this "pathetic" gear anyway? > * Okay, perhaps you would like to tell where you can get better than +1 str +1 dam gloves, +2 int +10 mana robe, +1 int +10 mana necklace+1 str armguards and collers, +2 wis robes, rings for lightwalkers and darkwalkers that are +2 dam each, +2 dex leggings, +1 dex shirts, +2 con balls, +1 con belts, +1 hit +5 hp shield, a bunch of +charisma crap..I could go on.. I certainly don't know wher a rank 1 can get better gear than that..But feel free to prove me wrong. > > Pepople have really gotten into the habit of bitching about everything latly.. > * I find bitching/yelling/griping doesn't help (even though I do it some times..)civility has allways proven much more usefull for me. > -TSM

> > if your stats are not near perfect to begin with, and not perfect after you train.. something is very wrong. I spent litterally 2 hours with frellis. Those of you with rollers shouldnt even complain about stats.
