Pikeman Archive

I'm an average gamer who will play for about 3 hours a day. During those 3 hours I will be buffed and grinding a melee profession. I think my first choice will be Pikeman since I hear its the most stressful to master. I'm a Master TKA and Master Brawler, I also got enough combat xp to get the first 2 boxes in the tree that requires combat xp so accuracy won't be a big issue too much. Here are the questions:

1. With 0002 in Pikeman, what tree should I climb first, speed or the tech tree?

2. Which attacks should I use to level up?

3. What creatures should I hunt to grind?

4. Playing for 3 hours a day, how long will it take me to master Pikeman?

1. With 0002 in Pikeman, what tree should I climb first, speed or the tech tree?

I would say go up speed AFTER u get defnse 1, for melee mitigation 1. Hit two will be ur staple move til master, as it iwll be faster than leghit 3, but thats cool too.....i personally got defense LAST, as ur buffed so it shouldent be a problem.

2. Which attacks should I use to level up?

As writen above (u have 0-0-0-2, so i would say use a pre patch LVA, better acuracy now, and the dmg is way better, coz u can hit it LOL)

3. What creatures should I hunt to grind?

Quickest way is quenkers...5k missions for a fe of the lower boxes, from there, move to savage quenker 6.8-7k missions.

4. Playing for 3 hours a day, how long will it take me to master Pikeman?

It will tkae as long as it takes....but i reckon a few weeks...think i did it in 3-4 days, but i was playing 12 hours a day (was un-employed at the time....blah)

Hope this helps, please feel free to post more questions, and ignore legwind....hes certainly a windy, whiney guy, but is a faverate of alot of pikeys for his er....colorful epressions (ur'll see )
