Hello everyone. I just wanted to get the oppinion of several different people on if this idea would work well or not. I was thinking about getting my HAM lower, but all the secondary (str/const/stam/quick/will/focus) max. I tested it out, and I now have 675 health, 675 action, and 700 mind (more mind cause one I'm a medic, and two, no way to heal your mind). So, everything else is maxed. I havn't really tested it out, but I was just wondering if it would be a good idea or not. Please post your thoughts about if this would work well or not in PVE or PVP or both

You should try wearing ARMOR to balance your low health/action. With your MAX secondaries it would probably balance well if your armor has 30%+ effectiveness.

this will work good if you know someone who can give you health and action buffs all the time =)

I'd agree with the idea of adding some armor. Your pools are low enough that you can be one shot killed by specials from higher level mobs or some PvP weapons. I tried both going with large health/action pools and thenswitching tomaxed secondaries and ended up sticking with larger main pools. It had a lot to do with me always having medic skills (now being a doctor) and also because I'm a Mon Cal I couldn't get my health and action secondaries high enough to make the lower pools worth it. ATM I've maxed my mind stats, put the remainder of my points into health and action, and use my Doctor enhances.

MY wife = master doc master combat medic, and she trails me with her new char so i get massive buffs all the time and never worry about action/mind

let me say that I have, in fact, tried what you propose. I am a human, I maxed out my secondaries and balanced my HAM, and wore no armor. If you use a lot of specials, I don't reccommend it. The strength, quickness, focus being maxed works well, and I still have them maxed, but having constitution, stamina, and willpower maxed does you almost no good at all in combat. these 3 control the speed you regenerate, and even maxed out, it's not fast enough (in any pool) to offset the specials' costs. So, I have since brought these 3 down to minimum, brought my HAM up to a reasonable level (around 800), and then raised the con, stamina, and will up according to the pools I need to regenerate faster for what I do when I'm not in combat.

Hope that helps.

Anyone else have any opinions on maxing out 2ndary stats?

Since you have medic skills i would put low constitutin and put more health and low quickness to put more action. Because you will need high str and stamina or you will kill yourself using special attack. You dont need to have fast regeneration on Health and action if you are medic. But put high focus so you can heal your mind faster.
