Title: Good Throwing/Polearm build
Post by: ManOfWar on February 02, 2011, 05:56:00 pm

Ive experimented with archery and ive come to the conclusion that I despise it. Therefore I am now going to try throwing out a bit.

Would anyone like to give me a helping hand?

I haven't tried this yet, so you may or may not like it, and it may or may not work well, but this is the build I'm planning to follow once I retire my current melee character.

Well, here's a copy/paste of Serf_John_RS.  (You don't need to wear peasant garb, of course.)  I use a masterwork war spear with three of whichever throwing weapon my mood dictates at the moment (usually throwing lances, since they're so incredibly satisfying).  If you wanted to divert more focus to throwing, I'd switch three or six agility over to strength. 

Then again, 36 strength, 3 agility will work too.  You can't really go wrong with throwing if your strength exceeds your agility.

you can of course switch out some of the ironflesh and put more into PS, but this is what i wanted to go with...  hit really hard with throwing and still able to kill with a polearm

and have a shitload of hp***
