Hello everyone, I'll be joining the community and I was thinking of going with an elemental summoner (perhaps with a box PP). What I'd like to know perhaps from some veterans is how summoners do at 2.0 (have been away from l2 for quite some time), and if they have any luck finding parties. Other than that any advice from more knowledgable ppl would be really appreciated (e.g choosing a better buffer for my box, or what have you.) Thank you all!

You are all so pessimistic I'm gna be fine, hopefully

it will probly be just like playing an abyss walker will find out soon enough

In the end, I think I will go for +str-con as for now. Only because I'm too low level and not interested in pvping, rather leveling for now and pvping later. I think I did mention that I do have a pp (can throw an emergency heal if required) and I plan to go for PL set for now before B grade. So perhaps not +12 - 15 but +8 -10 would be fine if I hunt mobs that aren't spellcasters either. Thank you all for the info.

true although from what I've read the chance increase is miniscule, 1,8% in a +12 str increase iirc but yeah losing all the dex now seems bad for all the akt. speed and acc loss

thank you all for the replies. I'm probly gonna try +str - con just to facilitate pve atm since I also got a pp for blessed body

I would actually love to try +12 str -15 con for pve but I cannot fathom how low my hp will be brought if I do that

Hello I'm new to classic and I was wondering, with all the changes in dyes, being able to go +12 on a single stat and STR not affecting skill crit chance, what would be the optimal selection of dyes for gladiator pve and pvp wise. I assumed that one could go +12str-15dex for pve but wouldn't that be painful? You would get the p.atk but lose a ton of acc, crit chance, and attk. speed. From what I've read for pvp the suggested way to go was +12con-15dex. Either way could someone who has experience in classic, has tested things out and see how they work provide some suggestions and alternatives? Thank you in advance. Edit: I forgot to say that I do not have recharge available, so my reservations regarding reducing dex that much are mana related, provided that there are no herbs either so no skill spamming.
