Well i have to make this an AB but if it survives basic i'll be surprised.
7-3-14-10-17-3-16 = 7-3-14-15-21-3-21.
Any other ideas? |

Better than you think. Yes, the low con hurts. But the will-checks determine survival as well.
Very nice. |

Many would be pleased to be running him. Good luck. |

As good as dead, but I might run it just to see how long it will last anyway. |

Survival really depends on several things.
The Arena - Some arenas are more just deadly than others and some are like Lapur and just deadly to AB's.
Arena Size - Smaller arenas seem to make it easier to graduate an AB.
What styles warriors are in the arena - Not having many Lungers around helps alot early on.
An last but not least - Just plain dumb luck.
Personally I have always thought their is a curse on Lapur. I only know of 4 AB's that have come out of there, Jack Flash (Who might have been the first ever AB to graduate out of Lapur and belongs to my old friend Vlad), Bonnie (Managerr), Bob Evans (Purple Sage) and mine Kalimac. Their are probably more, but I doubt there are more than a 10-15.
If I remember correctly Bob Evans is also a 15 WT 21 WL/DF AB. I remember Ken pleading with everyone in the personals not too kill him the last few turns. LOL |

8-3-14-11-21-6-21 AB
This would work all day long for me. Personally, I think WT is low on the totem pole for AB's, especially if they have high will/dft combo's like these.
The 6 Speed goes a long way. Bump ST 1 time to get SC.
As far as skill bases with the 15 Wit/3 Sp you get 6/4/18/10/11/7 With the 11 Wt/6 Sp you get 5/4/16/10/10/9
I think the survivability is better with the 11 Witter for the simple reason of the 2 Dec early on.
But I could be wrong  |

I'd go:7-3-14-16-20-3-21.
burn to 7-3-14-17-21-3-21.
Run it hot 10-10-6 decise with an epee.
If it lives, it well do well. |

Make it a PR and train ST/CN twice each. Then again, what the heck do I know, I've been gone for 4 months.

I agree. I like this MUCH better as a PR. Train the STR to 9 and leave the con to later on. |

As a ripper it looks like this:
10/12/13/12/9/5
Two strength trains give you normal endurance. This guy could do VERY well if he learns good early on. |

Wow, you guys are much better at keeping your rippers from getting hit than I am. Of course, I have yet to use (or get) a ru like this one on a ripper. A 3 con ripper? Well, I guess that opens up news areas for exploration and death. |

Well run it and it has a chance to die. Never run it and it is just a waste. Dont fear the death. Think of the prospests this RU has. They dont mean anything if you dont try. |

14 size and 21 will go a long way to getting him out of frailness. |
