Your best adventurer's starting stats?
« on: February 10, 2011, 03:00:13 pm »

The title pretty much says it all. What was your best adventurer's starting race, stats, skills, attributes and so on. I'll let you decide what "best" means. But I know some of you have 5000 kill adventurers and the like. Have fun!
Oh yeah, do you start as a Peasant, Hero or Demigod too?

The rest in throw.

My Demigod Build

I start with superior disease resistance and recuperation, and above average in the other physicals, spatial, kinesthetic sense, and focus or willpower. Disease resistance and recuperation aren't easily trainable, everything else is. This is my demigod build.

I haven't proven it yet but I suspect that recuperation is kind of useless because either you heal the next time you sleep/fast travel or you don't heal. I think that if you want to prolong the amount of fun! your adventurer has with the world then you might want to put almost everything into toughness. I'm going to try this next:

Superior Toughness
Above Average:  Strength, Agility

The downside is that your enemies will each get more attempts to break you and the benefit of toughness doesn't balance.
