Are there any DPS Casters around that don't require a buffbot? Guessing no, since Dex is relatively important.


edit: Other than Heretic. Have one.

NPC buffs work just fine.

Eld, Lock, Runie, Wizzy. I would think any class that can kite/snare/nearsight/disease.

I assume you're going to solo/small man.

All list casters need a buffbot/partner with a shaman/druid/clerics with yellow buffs and 25% bonus. Without dex and acuity buffs they are totaly useless.

Without dex you cast as fast as a gimp.
Without Acuity you nuke as hard as a mosquito bites.

QFT

However, on a Kobold BD, you'll reach your second highest break points with aug dex 5 and some points spent at creation; might be the best bet? You'll still be able to compete w/o the bot?

Again, with the recent changes to Nature, all three main healer classes now have fairly effective damage capabilities. Especially shamans since they took the CD off of the nuke.
