It needs to be one of the three skills listed because of the next required skill Parry should be , but you can get away with In my opinion yes. If you can't afford it go with and when you can afford it go to You will be effective with Anyone can afford a parry. Bushido is an integral part to this template. Bushido allows you to honor your foe, lightning strike, and parry with out a shield with no penalty. You can honor your enemy as long as it is at full life.
When you honor your opponent, you begin to achieve 'perfection'. Perfection is an ability that gives a damage bonus based on the amount of consecutive hits you deal to your target. In order to use it you must have at least 50 bushido and then honor your target creature. After that, every successful hit will increase your perfection while a miss will lower it. Lightning strike also gives you a chance to perform a 'critical hit' on your opponent.
This is key to a sampire, because for 1 v 1 PvM it allows you to exclude hit chance from your suit and focus on other mods that might be beneficial. Hit chance is still extremely valuable. Bushido allows you to parry without the use of a shield. In fact, using a shield with Bushido actually hurts your chance to parry. Necromancy is used for Vampiric Embrace which was covered earlier. You need a minimum of 99 necromancy after items to sustain vampiric embrace form. Some templates which will be covered later also use it for curse weapon.
Chivalry is essential. There are several spells use with Chivalry that make it invaluable to a successfull sampire. The first of which is Enemy of One. And no, my pet was not helping with the fight because I did not have the time to switch the targeting as I was busy trying to get Word of Death up It either is that Word of Death is way too slow a spell or, that Sampires can kill too fast. And people keep trying to say that Warriors are not THE one and only Template that all players should play with, period, given the current game mechanics at work?
Yeah right Something needs be done to help players be able to play with a variety of Templates without suffering so much a set back in their ability to kill if they do not want to play a warrior Not to mention, that tamers have been plagued over the years by lots of nerfs And I could go on and on and on with stuff that makes playing a Tamer way less enjoyable and effective And then one wonders why everyone uses a Warrior instead?
RonFellows Posts: December Word of death isn't meant to be a spell you use on mobs like that. Its a slow powerful spell that kills stuff with crazy resists and hit points. Jepeth Posts: Word of Death is an incredibly slow spell, much like the mage master death ray.
However for sure no sampire hit could deliver that much raw damage all at once. God help us if they ever get a bane mod sword weapon. December edited December Jepeth said:. Was the sampire utilizing a slayer weapon?
Word of Death does not work with that, unfortunately. Valis Posts: What the hell are you going to complain about tomorrow I wonder? Do you even stop to think before posting? And here we go again Btw, you have been playing a tamer for a whole cup of coffee.
You were training up your first pet as I recall trying for invasion books. Working on another during last event yelling out in general chat for everyone not to kill YOUR mobs because you were training it.
Spamming GC for free scrolls. Poops, you are a troll. Starting multiple threads about the same things for pure reaction. Find another game that you enjoy. No, many people don't play the template that 'works best', some do, but many play the template they enjoy best. To go into more detail on your post. With protection cast you can't possibly have faster casting 4 because protection lowers your casting speed CAP by 2. Pets do half damage - only in pvp if memory serves me right?
If tamers have it as hard as you claim, why do people play them? I often play mine. I have a sampire. The commonly named "flying! The structure of the wing membrane, the arrangement of the bones supporting it, and the positioning of the muscles provide the bat with the lightness and maneuverability necessary for catching insects, hovering above flowers, or quickly avoiding obstacles.
Extending from the sides of the body and incorporating the hands, legs, and tail are the two thin layers of skin containing blood vessels, nerves, and tendons that essentially make up the wing membrane. The bones of the arm and four of the fingers are light, slender, and lengthened to support, spread, and manipulate the membrane. The thumb, usually with a sharp claw, is not attached but remains free for clinging to various surfaces.
Unlike other mammals, the hind limbs are positioned so that the knees, when bent, point backward while the bottom of the feet face forward. The toes have claws which help in gripping and in hanging head down, the normal bat resting position. A long spur, the calcar, extends from one of the ankle bones and helps spread the interfemoral membrane, that part of the wing membrane between the tail and the hind legs.
This membrane can form a basket or pouch to help catch and hold insects captured in flight. Most of the flight muscles controlling the wing beat are attached to the shoulder blades, unlike birds, whose muscles are braced against the rib cage. Birds usually have a prominent breast keel where heavy muscles are attached; in bats, only one muscle is attached to the breastbone, the ribs are flattened, and there is some fusing of the vertebral joints, all adaptations that make the frame light and give the bat its incredible agility.
Although various bat species eat different kinds of food, the vast majority consume a variety of insects such as moths, beetles, gnats, and crickets. In this respect, the bat's nocturnal behavior provides certain advantages. Enormous numbers of insects fly at night, and with the exception of spiders, there are few competitors for such food. Other than the occasional owl or snake, there are also few predators that can capture or pursue a bat in the dark.
Night brings cool temperatures which help dissipate the heat generated by the muscular activity of flight. Because the bat has a thin wing membrane, flying during the heat of the day could be hazardous causing excessive absorption of heat and resulting in dehydration and possible heat prostration. Nocturnality offers protection from the heat and helps the bat maintain its body temperature and moisture.
All bats can see, even though vision may be less important than other senses. To locate and catch prey, insectivorous bats use an acoustic orientation called echolocation. They emit a series of supersonic cries through the mouth or nose and detect flying insects by the echoes reflected back. Those species that produce sound through their noses usually have a flap of skin called a nose leaf above the nostrils. This may help to direct the sound, but its precise function is not known.
The man credited with discovering that bats emit sounds in the ultrasonic range and navigate in response to echoes is Donald R. Since his first findings were announced in , numerous studies have been made in the field of echolocation, and it is the one area of bat life that has been investigated in any depth. In addition to the ultrasonic sounds used in echolocation, bats also emit other sounds possibly to communicate or to indicate emotion.
Purrs, clicks, and buzzing often precede mating of some species; some of these sounds may be ultrasonic. It has been observed that certain North American insectivorous bats vibrate when at rest and content.
This vibration does not occur when they are asleep. Also, recognition of mothers and babies involves both audible and ultrasonic sound. The bat's ear is extremely mobile and sensitive to sound. The tragus, a lobe projecting in front of the ear opening, may have a sensory function; however, its exact use is not known. According to analyses of stomach contents and the insect remains found near bat roosts, species vary in the insects they prefer. For example, the cave myotis, M.
Small insects are often caught directly in the mouth, but larger ones are more frequently captured by the wing membrane, transferred and readjusted in the basket formed by the hind legs and the interfemoral membrane, then pulled to the mouth and eaten.
Not all bats seize their prey on the wing. Some specialize in catching land insects like grasshoppers or roaches that are found on the ground, rocks, or trees. In this instance, less energy is required to catch a few large insects than hundreds of tiny moths or gnats.
Other bats use their feet to snatch insects from the surface of ponds and lakes. With the exception of three flower-eating species that migrate from Mexico, the bats in the United States are insectivorous. Those species that eat pollen, nectar, and in some instances, petals from flowers, are found mainly in the tropics and semitropics.
Pollen, like insects, is highly nutritious. The flower-eaters are usually small and have long pointed heads, long tongues, and the ability to hover and fly slowly. Fruit and sometimes insects also supplement their diet.
Most of the Old World fruit and flower eaters rely on vision and sense of smell to locate food rather than sonar. Unlike birds, bats are color blind and, therefore, not dependent on color for locating and choosing their food.
Many prefer dark green or brown fruits with musty or sour odors instead of the more colorful varieties. These fruits usually hang from vines or grow from the trunk of a plant unobstructed by heavy tropical foliage. A few species of bats are carnivorous, eating small frogs, lizards, and birds.
Other species are known for their fish-eating habits and are usually specialized by having huge hind feet and claws. The best known of the fish-eating bats is the fishing bulldog bat, Noctilio leporinus , of Central and South America.
How this bat actually finds its food is not completely understood, but many authorities believe that sonar is used to detect ripples on the water made by the fish. It catches its prey with large hooked claws, spears the fish with its canine teeth, gathers it up in the wing membrane, bites through the skull and eats it, all in a matter of seconds. Although there is little scientific data on the subject, observations by naturalists in the field seem to support the fact that some bats swim in stressful situations but that it is not normally part of their ordinary behavior patterns.
For example, flying foxes, often island inhabitants, may have to fly long distances to obtain food.
