lol no it wont. with the same stats, level, and armor my lvl 5-6 in one offensive skill will always beat your level 2-3 in multiple offensive skills

I think he meant combining 1 weapon skill with a couple of defensive skills, and maybe military assault, to be a good all-rounder.

first of all you can't know that
second the time you waste to get your armor skill to rank 6 someone'll get a rank 5 in a weapon and a rank 3 in a defence skill
and third i was talking about going over rank 5-6

"I wasn't resisting arrest, I was resenting arrest."
Some people are like slinkies they are really good for nothing but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Close but i was thinking more ranged-melee-defence

Any more than 1 weapon skill is foolish.

I am not even close to top 50 stats, but am 2nd in the POI for best hit by attackers, solely because of my high skill rank in one weapon.

Way to assume what I was talking about.

To clarify, I was not talking about training multiple offensive skills. Why would I waste my time doing that? I train my one weapon skill, and a couple others which I'm not going to go into.

Some folks wield dual weapons(1 Melee/1 Ranged), so they might train more than one weapon skill..I personally don't. I train a bunch of the others one, though..2:1 weapon/support.

In the end, its all come down to what you really want.


If you want to be the strongest offensive player, focusing everything on 1 skill is not a bad idea.

Remember guys, you will need 3 defensive skill to offset 1 offensive skill. Training 3 "rank 1" skills are quick and easy. But, training THREE "rank 2" skills are going to take 2 months of time.


If you like to be well rounded, that's great. But, you will never be able to catch up to the all offensive player.

Since when? From what I know, weapons are the only variable that decides how much damage is dealt to an hideout. Got a source for that info?



zen herself,,,dont beleive me then mail her and ask her..this is the breakdown on hide out attacks...

weapon+stats=hideout damage,,,,,if you have military assault it give a bonus to what you already can do...
so with mil assault it breaks down too,,,,,,,weapon+stats+mil assault=hideout damage
