rearrange

Right. Time to be serious. Rearranging your characters stats is probably the most important thing you will have to do. If you make the wrong decision then it can haunt you for a long time, not to mention be extremely embarrassing. :P

Warrior : How come I can see you hiding?
Assassin : Um, I only have 10 dex
Assassin shuffles his feet embarressedly
Warrior rolls about on the floor laughing at assassin.
Assassin : I can cast a portal though in less than 5 seconds!

It's entirely your own decision how you decide to rearrange. With an assassin the main emphasis is upon Dexterity, the same with a thief, this is because dex affects your covert skills. However, being able to kill a few things in order to actually advance would be nice. :) So, for this reason we also have Strength.

Below is listed the main stat for each guild. You can work out for yourself quite easily what each stat does this way as you know more or less what each guild does.

Assassins - Dexterity ( dex )

Thieves - Dexterity (dex)

Wizards - Intelligence (int)

Witches - Intelligence (int)

Warriors - Strength (str)

Priests - Wisdom (wis)

The above stats will be appropriate to that guilds main primaries, hence it being the main stat. Aswell as the main stat each guild needs some others. Most of us like to be able to kill things, so as you see above, a warrior - who kills anything that moves and the rest just incase - has Strength as his main stat. So, if we want to fight well we need some strength. :) Wizards and witches cast spells and have all magic as primaries so, if we want to use a crystal ball, or learn to portal ourselves we need wis. Priests have damned good perception and wisdom affect covert skills a little....With me so far? Hehe pretty tough if you're not isn't it, because I can't hear you. :P

The one stat that is missing from all this is constitution (con). Con affects you're Hit points (HP) and as such it's a useful one to have. However, this dosn't mean you need lots of it. Most players, other than warriors, will probably only have 2 or 3 extra con points, making it around 10 or 11. It's fairly easy to learn other.health from the higher level warriors and as such youmight aswell put another point into str for the mindless slaughtering you are planning on. :)

Listed below are some suggested rearranges for the Assassins guild. You don't have to use these, you can make up you're own variation.

Uncertain assassin - middle of the road
Constitution ... 10         Strength ....... 16       Dexterity ...... 23
Wisdom ......... 8          Intelligence ... 8

Covert assassin with a magical edge.
Constitution ... 10         Strength ....... 15       Dexterity ...... 23
Wisdom ......... 8          Intelligence ... 9

All Round assassin - stat items to be taken into consideration.
Constitution ... 11         Strength ....... 18       Dexterity ...... 20
Wisdom ......... 8          Intelligence ... 9

Fighting & covert
Constitution ... 9          Strength ....... 17          Dexterity ...... 23
Wisdom ......... 8          Intelligence ... 8

As you can see from the above, the variations are very subtle, only a point here and there. The main emphasis seems to go upon.

1) Covert
2) Fighting
3) Constitution

So its perhaps a good assumption to say concentrate upon those 3 stats.

Another aspect to bear in mind when rearranging is that you can buy, or gain through quests, stat items. As mentioned in the weapons section, you can get Thieves Daggers which will add another point of dex to your stats. Or dex gloves which add two extra points of dex but also reduce your str by one. Then there are quest items available which will add two points to the stat of your choice, upon completion of the quest you are given a choice what to pick. Worth bearing in mind when rearranging.

Lastly, because the variations are so small. If you did make a rearrange which you don't like then it is possible to move a point one at a time by visiting a man called Ralph in OC. He will happily beat 10 barrels of shite out of your head with a big mallet resulting in a point being shifted, most of your inventry all over the floor and you unconcious unable to do anything for about 20 minutes. :P You even get to pay him for the privalidge!.....so get a friend to hold your hand if you visit him:)

READ HELP REARRANGE

You get one chance to do this. Get it right. Don't rush. I didn't rearrange Kesira until quite a while after she passed the run. :) Hell, that was a good day. It was like advancing 100 levels on most skills all in one go. KLK didn't stand a chance against her that day. :P

Good Luck.
