Curse

This build is used to kill dryders, phantoms, hydra, golems, and drakes. Havent tried killing bosses.

ARMOR: Glads for energy, ascalon helm for +1 tactics and reduced dmg.

WEAPONS: Any sword with grip of defence/fortitude will do. -5 dmg (chance:20%) or +60/-3 hex shield will do.

ATTRIB POINTS:
Strength: 12 + 3
Tactics: 11 + 1 + 1

SKILL BAR:
Victory is Mine! {E}
Desperation Blow
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Healing Signet
Dolyak Signet
Sprint
Plague Sending

STRATEGY:
Wait for patrol to leave, then go east towards the 2-3 hydra. Kill them, then move on to the golems. Keep going north killing the hydra/golems on the way. When you reach a bridge, you can either go east to hydra/golems and a collector, or west to venture around. Watching patrols is the key to staying alive out here. Look at the map below.

HOW TO KILL:
Phantoms: Plague send there blind back, then kill with desp blow/deadly/riposte.

Hydra: Move around until they are done with meteor shower. Dolyak sig, then use your dmg dealing skills. Heal when needed. ViM when low on both health and energy. Do NOT attempt to kill more then 3.

Golems: Same as hydra (Except the meteor shower part Its a MUST to use plague sending when you get poisoned.

Dryders:Can you say walk in the park? Let them get you down to less then 50% health, and do not heal. Only desp blow does damage to them.

Drake: Do not plague send when your burning, as it would be pretty much useless. Same strategy as golems/hydra.

POSSIBLE LOOT: Lots of straight gold, chance of getting gold items. Gold scrolls from collectors, too.

Hope you liked my build

The Phantoms are good enough to interrupt your first Plague Touch causing you to waste 10 energy to just sent Blind back. I suggest using Healing Signet first as a decoy before using Plauge Touch.

The build is similar to the one I use except I use Gladiator's Defense for extra damage against any melee enemies. Plus I have 11 in Swordsmanship so I can kill the Dryders faster.

but if you give them blind you will gain more from ViM

Worked great, although I used Plague Touch in place of Plague Sending, due to the Phantom's Power Leak spell. Was unable to bait it with Healing Signet.

Other than that, was great.
