Introduction Goldendawn
Well, I considered the path I would take for my character taking a combative or militant role. Yet also consider how I wanted him to follow a spiritual path. I focused him in a way that seemed to work when it comes to how the game is built while not rushing forward to quickly.
More, when it comes to skills, I put particular focus on those which would increase his combat survivability such as Hardy, Reflexes, a Weapon Specialization, Toughen, Vigor. Maxed out Reflexes especially as it is nothing to brush aside attacking first as it makes a huge difference in battle. Also, using the Palace of Parody to increase any stats lower then 11 to such.
Yet perhaps most of all was keeping things in order and not rushing forward until I had build him up properly. I aggressively worked towards gaining the experience needed to level up yet keeping things safe. Then getting a familiar once marauders start having archers. The mages were not any concern because of having maxed Reflexes.
Read and considered what is needed, being thrifty in what is chosen first and most beneficial before branching out once I had a solid foundation. Not getting distracted, move forward yet not too quickly so as to pay attention. Through such, I have only died once even at level 8 and I hope to continue to avoid such.
Admittedly, donating for extra gold helps greatly. As such, it should comes to no surprise that the one with the highest forum points playing RoK II is in 1st place. That extra gold and pretty pebbles, to a lesser extent, makes a difference.
