Hi guys - Yes I'm back again with another request for advise.
It's been.. Oh, I can't count the years since I've had a character that gets 7/8 seconds RT on heavy weapons and, quite frankly it's frustrating - But on a similar note, I'm also frustrated with my learning rate.. So the question I pose, is this...
Should I dump TDPs into agil/str to get a reasonable RT on weapons to increase effectivity in combat? Lock quicker, minimise risk, etc.
Or...
Should I dump my precious TDPs into mentals to increase learning rate? - However, this poses a problem.. Soon I'll be in vipers, then peccs then leucro.. 8 seconds isn't exactly.. Realistic.
Strength : 20 Reflex : 16
Agility : 17 Charisma : 11
Discipline : 15 Wisdom : 14
Intelligence : 12 Stamina : 15
Suggestions? Thank you in advance.

What weapons do you use? You might want to invest in a forged blade created with your stats in mind. Meanwhile, a little more intelligence might help.
Good luck!

My advise would be to train your physicals till you get to something you can live with. Not necessarily minimum round times, but something that works. Your mentals could use a boost though. However, at this point you should be learning relatively fast anyway. Once your physicals are more manageable, then work on mentals.
Remember to train stamina up before training a lot of strength. Too much strength and not enough stamina will have you exhausted often. I've found it easier to put off mentals for a bit and get the physical stats where you need them to hunt, then to work mentals too much and have a tough time hunting.

Currently in blood wolves, soon to make transition into vines/creepers then move onto vipers etc.
Learning rate at the moment is terrible, comparing the same ranks to my main character, with obviously considerably more mentals, but it's almost as if I level at the same rate as my main.
Stuck between rock and hard place.. Increase potential for minimal learning rise, or decrease weapon RTs..Hmm..
Any advice appreciated..

Forget some of those extra weapons. That will help circling rate tremendously.
Blood wolves should work great till the transition to creepers. You've got your chain figured out well.
You are Malkien, a dashing Barbarian. Huzzah!
You are Apis, a legendary Cleric in your own head.
You are Ragesong. What sort of Kaldar is a Bard, anyways, doofus?
You are also Pellazan (WM), Essatariol (Ranger) and running out of sig space.

Oops, that bit didn't get posted - Silly me.
Shield Usage: 54 54% clear Leather Armor: 42 29% learning
Light Chain: 67 25% thoughtful Heavy Chain: 61 16% learning
And what would you recommend on an armour set? perfect leathers, HC gloves and LC balaclava? Or switch and change to maximise learning?
