Need NCB Start Help (in General)


BHT November 11 2009 9:07 PM EST

I would like some strat help, here is my current plans:
(see character Toxic Strike)

Minion 1:
effective PL
then max AS
[wearing leadership and wall gears]

Minion 2:
Archer - training mostly ST
effective archery
[wearing archer gear and ToA]

Minion 3:
lots of AMF
small AS

I have almost all the gear I need so feel free to look at my character 'Toxic Strike':

My main weakness will be DM teams, I know that but I don't see any other major downfalls.

Any comments, advice, ideas, or help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

was that character supposed to be an ncb?

DM instead of AMF since its an archer team. Since you're using a ToA you can focus your archer xp on HP more so perhaps train straight HP on the PL wall. DM +natural HP will work better to combat GA for your archer to survive rather than AS spread I'd imagine.

I made a few changes.
My wall now will be training just HP and PL
Training more HP on my tank
My enchanter now is training AMF and GA, would DM/GA suit better?

GA + PL tends to be inefficient, since the GA will only retaliate the damage dealt directly to the PL wall. So the spread damage from SoD, CoC, and FB, special xbows, and MM will not be retaliated because the damage is absorbed. I still feel DM will outweigh the benefit of AMF. Here's an idea:

1: DM with heavy AC and Armor Proficiency and base Steel Skin.
2: Archer ToA
3: HP PL MgS

SG/Physical damage will be reduced by the AC wall, Decay won't hurt your team with the 20 HP enchanter in front. Your PL wall will absorb all damage and make MM teams very weakened. And your Archer will be untouched except by specialty xbow drain and GA (which should be reduced by DM)

Single minion ToA archers will destroy you i'm thinking. Or just larger tanks in general.

how come it doesn't have the ncb bonus?

BHT November 12 2009 1:28 PM EST

Because it's obviously not an NCB...?

Perhaps put an AoI on Minion 1. That will keep other archers from wiping out your leadership bonus, but it will also mean giving up the AoL. Also a Trollskin works really good with PL if you train some natural HP.
