For CMANs besides the obvious "Feint", what else should I train as a PLD with 61 pts at level 40.

What SHIELD skills should I train as a PLD that primarily fights undead and taking into account I have "Feint"?


As I gave over the horizon, the wind tugs at my cloak and whispers, "Adventure" in my ear.

Ummmm and where does one acquire said tower shield? Aren't those pretty rare (in Prime)?

>For CMANs besides the obvious "Feint", what else should I train as a PLD with 61 pts at level 40.

I presently have all my points into WSPEC and SURGE. Do note, however, that a paladin shouldn't ever max Surge, because with a fully bonded 1625 weapon, you'll go over the max STR at SURGE 5.

>> Though I feel considering 1607, especially for a Voln, Surge is a critical CMAN for all paladins; otherwise what are you doing with Stamina. Even at Surge 3 I can basically keep it up indefinitely because 60 stamina is nothing to me.

I routinely open with shield bash or feint on critters (hunting in the Rift planes 1-2) and, while I have enough stamina, I would come up a bit short at times if I was running CMAN Surge all of the time as well (no doubt if I used enhancives this would be resolved). I do use 1607 when my stamina gets low and I generally only use surge today at the end of a hunt when I've picked up one too many boxes and need to kill just a couple more critters.

Just my two silvers worth.
