Than I thought a bit... and decided that actually the lifestealing blade will be more use for my build. And than this question comes up: I am surely ready for mass-killing the gargoyle trainers, but am I ready for those imps? Their stats are not included in bestiary...

IMO it should be provided there.
Perhaps go there by your own and provide the infos yourself.

at about what level did you guys & gals need to stop worrying about potions?
(when grinding for the RoLS)

I didn't really get to that state. I was levels 22-32 with doing some other things when I got my rings. I would need to use a potion or 2 a clear at the start and then every other clear or so towards the end.

Got the GoLF after 5 kills.
Working on RoL now.

Don't waste your time on the RoL . IMO, its not worth the effort.

IMO it's worth it. I almost never use potions. (I don't need stats anyway.)
But it's hard in BWM and the new iqhan cave with only 2 hits.

That`s the result of my build (it is DEFENSIVE - I see rather unpopluar here) but with levelling only bark-skin and regeneration in skill levels I do not need potions already (20 lvl) with gargoyle cave.

And I will definitely go for both life-stealing weapon and imp`s stats just after being fed up with ROLS seeking.

welcome to the forum, glad you're here!

its good to hear input about new & different players...
most of the characters i've built have been total offense,
but my most recent build sounds similar to to yours. (not shown)
i was shocked to see that such a defensive character could function so easily
i think most people here would call me insane for ignoring criticals all together,
but i had an idea i wanted to try, and not even half way there...
im blown away! go for the ROL, it will be the icing on the cake!
the way i see it, might just make my DEF build unstoppable!

Though a defense build may be really effective, my biggest issue with a complete defense build is that it may take longer to kill mobs, thus slowing down progress... I one shot almost everything now with AC over 300 and CC at 90, and it saves a bunch of time.

yes, but you have 60 levels on me!

you are totally right though - the battles last longer
but are less dangerous...

but truly, i play all out offense...
this DEF build was / is just an experiment.
trying to know what everything "feels" like.

i like this new build, but it will feel great to be back
SPLATTERING mobs - in my usual brutally offensive way...

Don't get me wrong, the community as a whole I believe is very grateful to you for your experiments and sharing your experiences with the rest of us to help us make decisions. I was just pointing out a disadvantage that is not readily apparent because it is somewhat extrinsic of the mechanics of the game. I am very interested to hear everything you've learned about Evasion since you last spoke of it. I'm thinking that may be something I want on my dude.

So that I don't get yelled at: for your current build, however, the RoL and RoLS together may end up saving you a lot of time you'd lose not being able to one shot stuff by reducing the amount of time you'd have to spend buying Bonemeal and using it.
