Hey guys. Haven't really played nightshade before so I was hoping for some advice. I decided on elf (will use piercers) and placed my starting stats as 10 str / con / dex.

I'm wondering if this is gimped in any way or is this a reasonable char to go NS with? Thanks :)

Also, any advice for a new player starting out NS besides this? Appreciate any help!

Depends on if your going blade shade or pierce. If you chose to go pierce, keen with those stats is great. If you're going blade shade, you should be a celt and either put 10 in qui instead of dex or 15 str/10 con.

Only elf and luri can be NS in 1.65
It's the thrill of the chase

Thanks for the reply guys. I guess by going Elf I lose 5 dex and 5 quick. I'm guessing this isn't character breaking unless anyone seems to think so -- since I hate Lurikeens and prefer the aesthetic of the Elves for nightshade.

I did chose Elf.

5 Quick won't really matter much. You'll be having Aug Quick 2 for Dodger RA and you will be using +75 Dex/Quick Charges later anyway. So Quick is no probem.

At the end, you have to decide between

+5 Dex
+5% Crush

or

+3% Thrust
+2% Slash

For me, the additional Thrust and Slash Resists were more important than Crush resist and Dex. Well - and the fact, that elves got style :-P
