Character Creation help.

[Icestaff]

Hey guys, I need some help. I'm kind of bored of my ice mage a little and want to make a character that uses destruction spells like DR and stuff. Any suggestions on what type of race that should be and what arts and stuff to study in??

Any magic casting race would do I'd think.

For destruction you need death and spirit magic, but I'd go for more death magic than spirit it's more usefull.

It's up to you, but magic whip would be really helpfull for training, so get some whip skill if you do that, you'd already have plenty of death magic. Also a little air magic maybe four or five to keep the whip going.

fire magic around 13 ish at least would be good for resist and flame blade/fireball.

You could also go with a sword and cast vampire blade and flame blade instead of magic whip, which may be good since minor healing is nerfed, but you should have high lore and incantation for the full healing spell anyway.

Probably 4 skills per level would help I don't know..it's up to you.

So I've chosen a pixie to start out with.
So as a weapon to use I've chosen to use whips.
So if I buy a magic whip spell to use, I should train in wind and death of course.
And fire magic helps out DB doesn't it?
Any other things I should train in to help me out?

Air just increases whip duration. If you have a problem with forgetting that your whip is gone, try "alias <hotkey> cast magic whip;adjust magic whip 0"
