View Full Version : A way to empower your tank
Anakha the Almighty Thu, 16th Jan '03, 4:31pm I have my paladin wearing, Tymora's Loop ring and Young Ned's Knucky amulet. The point behind these are, they have luck. (+3 ring and +2 amulet)
Luck increases attack and damage rolls, my paladin hits critical at 2/3 rate. With these items and "Improved Critical" feat, the critical range of "Golden Heart..." becomes 13-20. Now cast "Executioner's Eyes" and "Luck" to finish the recipe and have a critical range of 8-20. :aaa: :toofar:
Sit back and watch your paladin while he acts as death itself. :grin:
Believe me HoF orcs are just searching for a hole to escape. ;)
EDIT NOTE:
Only "Execuitoner's Eyes" will shown in character record screen.

Beren Thu, 16th Jan '03, 11:53pm Where did you find Tymora's loop anyway? Was it a random drop, or is it now available in a store with the 2.01 patch?
Khazraj Fri, 17th Jan '03, 1:03am Severed Hand. IIRC one of the higher brass has it in their room.
Anakha the Almighty Fri, 17th Jan '03, 9:15am Sorry Khazraj but you are wrong.
As Beren suspected the "Tymora's Loop" is a random drop. I found it in Kuldahar. If you are lucky enough you can have two of them :) I am not that lucky but one does good still.
Erebus Fri, 17th Jan '03, 9:17am well you can get toughness, always good. :p
Beren Fri, 17th Jan '03, 12:46pm Some people are just so lucky.
I only wish MY paladin found a Tymora's Loop.
Ah well ...
Anakha the Almighty Fri, 17th Jan '03, 1:01pm Tarsakh:
What good has "Toughness" to do about more powerful tanks?
Oh, I see... You are just kidding. :p
Beren:
Be sure that it is much a better choice than "Ring of Warrior" or such. :p :D
Grey Ghost Fri, 17th Jan '03, 1:52pm Tymora's Loop is a great ring and it is a random drop. However, I have found at least one in almost every game I have played. It is typically in the Severed Hand (the most common place I have found it is in one of Brutai Mar's chests or boxes at the top of the Cleric tower) and in one game I actually found two Loops in the Hand.
Anakha the Almighty Fri, 17th Jan '03, 3:33pm Did you know that I sold the first Tymora's Loop, I found while my first run? The price was just 700gp or such so I thought it is not a good item.
Khazraj Sun, 19th Jan '03, 4:07am I am wrong again. I found the ring in the Severed Hand for the third time. It was on the Xvimian priest in the Cleric's Tower, the one who wears red and is saying "mass" for the congregation of believers.
Oh well, it is simply a "random" drop...
Khelben Sun, 19th Jan '03, 11:13am I had Tymora but i don't remeber where... I also looked at the ring and when i saw Luck +3 i sold it :( ,i didn't know what Luck did.
Rekiller Mon, 20th Jan '03, 8:31am Try a Barbarian/Fighter Tank, use the feat for +3 HP, and I use a powerfull two-handed sword, no shields for more damage.
Anakha the Almighty Thu, 23rd Jan '03, 11:48am Rekiller:
What do you want to say? You are totally off topic.
Oh, maybe you are not because I can not understand you! :rolleyes:
BTW, I found another "Tymora's Loop" and now my dwarven barbarian has one too. :grin: :happy:
Rekiller Fri, 24th Jan '03, 2:48am Sorry if you canīt understand me, Iīm not very good in english, but I said a way to empower a tank like the title said.

Anakha the Almighty Fri, 24th Jan '03, 8:59am Oh, I see your point. OK then... But you should read the whole topic. I already suggest a way for empowerment and this topic is to discuss if this way is efficient or not. Thanks for the input though. Now I will get "Toughness" feat to all my tanks. :shake:
Faragon Fri, 24th Jan '03, 4:29pm I don't think Toughness is that good a feature. You gain 3 hitpoints, for a whole featpoint. I think I can put those to better use.
Besides, it's not like those 3 (though 15 might if you invest 5 feats in it) are going to make a real difference.
Anakha the Almighty Tue, 28th Jan '03, 9:00am I agree with Faragon on toughness discuss.
My paladin deals 90 points of damage on Smite evil criticals. Probably he will be dealing more than 100 when he gets 'Light of Cera Sumat' :)
With Golden Heart he gets 5 attacks per round.
Some rounds he gets critical on all 5 attacks and deals about 200 points of damage. :eek:
