That's a pity. Usually, when you take your time and write a well thought-out post it's like a verdict, a final word on the topic. I always enjoy reading your so rare now comments

Because it's late and it's punchy...I just realized something. I'm posting in a thread where the original question is how to make an Ursan Blessing character.

I mean seriously, is that what we've sunk to? "How do I put Ursan Blessing on my bar and push the skill?" "Should I equip a weapon?"

It scares me that I'm going to be the first one to point this out - if you are going to equip a martial weapon and likely going to spend a lot of time attacking with it, on a bar with zero skills that require any attribute spec, you should probably put 12 points into the relevant weapon mastery. Just an idea.

Should the weapon be customised or not to be able to sell it later? What inscription to add 15^50, 20^50 or +5e? What about upgrades, +5AL or +30HP? So many hard questions... so many choices.... this Ursan Thing is so complicated, we are lost getting it ready

lol, this is seriously sick that people even ask things on UB usage

Off-topic, I know, but I really want to see the video if you do this!!!!

Off-topic as well that would be awsome to see someone vanquish UW and or FOW with just flare.

Ursan Blessing on an ele just doesn't sound that good at all if you ask me

For general purposes, having a zealous, 15^50 is good for an ele. The zealous really helps maintain your energy without the penalty, and the +5e isn't needed in a class with a massive energy pool already (and not really needed for any other class, really). For upgrades, I'd go for a +5AL just because it's cheaper and it reduces some of the basic hits by a good amount, but if you can afford a +30, by all means use it.

That elementalist would be bad because he doesn't know how to lure right.

I play with an axe and shield, so i have got with ursan on 93 armor. More than enough to fight at the front line. Even if ursan ends you can survive, just spam watch yourself. I've done some missions with a party of 4 (me + 3 hero's) on hm and didn't have any trouble to survive, nor did my hero's got smashed.

I rather play with ursan and stand in the front line than having Koss running al over my screen, screaming because he's getting hit

This is a extremely strong contender for the funniest post on guru

There are actually bad players who surprisingly don't know this basic information.

Sir Pandra Pierva · Nov 14, 2007, 08:17 PM // 20:17

There are very many of them.
