Solo Thrust Mercenary template


This was the temp I used through most of my solo Merc vid. You can also swap the cloak to Otherworldly Stalwart/Resilient Cloak to get more con/hp instead of str/mythic dps.

I mostly used the set weapons seen here, but the temp is overcapped on dual wield, str and dex, so you can swap to things like Astral Mephitic Fang or CL15 in the off-hand.

Spec: 50 DW, 39 Thrust, 43 Parry, 10 Shield.

The Bubble & The Blade: A Solo Warden Guide

Image
Wardens are one of the classes in DAoC with the most spec options, especially looking at Battle Warden specs. In this guide I'll go over the pros and cons of the most prominent specs, as well as some more experimental specs that I've tried through the years. Common with each of them is that you want to have at least 40 Blades (for the absorb debuff chain) and 32 Nurture (for the fatigue reduction buff).  This guide will also provide some tips for RA progression, abilities, as well as equipment and other general tips. I hope that this guide can provide some useful insight, as well as showcase some of the many options available to Wardens, to hopefully inspire new creative takes on the class. This guide is based on my own experience with over 4100+ solo kills on the Warden, playing the class as my main, on and off, for more than 18 years. Videos found here: YouTube channel    Table of contents: I: All-around solo spec II: 35 Shield specs III: 44 Regrowth specs IV: 49+ Nurtu...

Solo Template for lower rr Wardens (with Bracer of Zo)

Image
Template optmized for lower rank Wardens. Again optimized for Celts, other races can usually lower Strength (the goal is 400 str). This has more quickness so that it works for 45 Nurture, if you run lower Nurture you will still want more quickness. This temp has more shield/parry to work with lower RR, the loyal cloak also gives a block/parry buff. *** Stats *** Strength: 127/127 Constitution: 111/111 Dexterity: 69/95 Quickness: 55/80 Empathy: 18/75 Hitpoints: 515/525 Powerpool: 6/25 *** Resistances *** Crush: 26/28 Slash: 29/29 Thrust: 26/26 Heat: 23/26 Cold: 27/28 Matter: 23/26 Body: 33/26 Spirit: 37/33 Energy: 26/26 *** Specs *** Blade: 11/11 Blunt: 8/11 Parry: 9/11 Shield: 4/11 *** Others *** Melee Damage: 6/10 Melee Speed: 8/10 Style Damage: 4/10 Spell Range: 12/10 Spell Speed: 12/10 Buff Bonus: 5/25 Heal Bonus: 22/25 Armor Factor: 35/50 Arcane Siphon: 5/25 Myth Power Reg: 5/25 Myth Endurance Reg: 5/10 Myth Block: 2/10 DPS Increase: 13/10 CC Reduction: 3/50 Conversion: 5/10 *** It...

Solo Friar Template

Image
This is the template used in my 2025 Friar video. It prioritizes con/hp and toys like Bracer of Zo, speed, boon, and resist charges. Best 1h to use is Ancient Priest Mace for an additional resist charge. If you don't have a Pendragon bracer you can use Band of the Dream Conqueror and change the SC, but you will lose some HP.  Staffs I primarily use are: Cl15, Ghostly, Starlight, Astral & Snowfall. Spec I used: 50 Staff, 47 Enhancement, 14 Rejuvenation, 17 Parry. RAs  (at 11L1): IP3, Purge3, ST1, Mastery of Parry6, Mastery of Pain 6, Toughness6, Aug Dex5, Aug Qui2, MoF3, AoM2, WH2. If starting out I recommend getting Qui2, ST1, Purge2-3, MoParry5 and MoF3 as soon as you can. *** Stats *** Strength: 27/86 Constitution: 129/127 Dexterity: 101/107 Quickness: 84/79 Piety: 18/75 Hitpoints: 440/600 Powerpool: 6/25 *** Resistances *** Crush: 29/28 Slash: 28/29 Thrust: 25/26 Heat: 24/26 Cold: 28/28 Matter: 23/26 Body: 32/26 Spirit: 33/31 Energy: 28/26 *** Specs *** Staff: 13/11 ***...
