First win! Thalore bulwark

#1 Post by ekeron »

After lots and lots of dead characters and breaks from the game, I've finally done it.

Bulwark was the first class, I ever played in this game, so it's only fitting that bulwark is also my first win. :D

Here's my character link: http://te4.org/characters/10355/tome/b3 ... 8fe5b27b1a

I picked thalore for my race cause I figured the all resist boost would help when I went up against casters. Though, in retrospect, I should have gone antimagic, since thalore use willpower and, as a bulwark, I had waaayy too many generic points with just the base talents.

I got my hands on the crystalline artifact set, which was great cause the crystalline weapon does arcane damage which meant shield wall's physical penalty had no effect on me. Wanderer's rest was also hugely awesome, combined with rush and step up, mobility stopped being a problem in the game. After that, it was mostly trying to get crit multipliers to boost assault.

I died once in the hidden compound (got careless), once after meeting the multi-hued wyrms at the vor armoury (Came back later and utterly stomped them) twice against Rak'Shor (Let myself get swarmed by drakes while fighting him) and thrice more from a Rak'Shor vault full of psionic horrors (dreamscape was... scary).
After that, I made sure to play cautiously cause I'm not losing when I;m so close to the finish line.

Anyways, think I'm gonna rest up from the game for a couple of days before I think of doing another run. Not sure what I could play as but I definitely want something different from the tanky bulwark.

does Rak'Shor have very strong defense vs physical attacks? cuz my bulwark also died from him(after i had beaten him once the game crashed and i had to do him again >_>) I just wonder since i had the elemental fury ring if i equipped mby the fight would have been much easier?

Congrats! Bulwarks have a tough late game, but I'm glad you punched through it.
