I just finished making my character. I think it will be good enough, hopefully! I went with: Mig: 18 Con: 10 Dex: 8 (7+1 Godlike) Per: 16 (15+1 The White that Wends) Int: 16 (15+1 godlike) Res: 10 For spells I took: Chill Fog, Concelhaut's Parasitic Staff, Slicken, Spirit Shield I took the White that Wends because I wanted to get perception to 16 as well. Do you get more stat points as you play? I don't have as many as you mentioned in your post for character creation. What is the Wizard spell that boosts speed? Also what weapon skill would be recommended? I know I only need one... I was thinking about weapon + shield since I think I will be tanking? Or would something else be better? Thanks!

Thanks a lot for the detailed reply! Is there any particular reason you chose 16/16 int/per instead of 15/15 and 10 res? Is there a break point at 16? I'm going to be making my character soon and I was thinking about going: Mig 18 Con 8 Dex 10 Per 15 Int 15 Res 10

Hi guys, I apologize in advance as I'm sure you get a million of these posts. I picked up PoE from the Humble sale on Monday. When I start games I tend to do quite a bit of research before making a character and I ended up starting a Cipher however I deleted him shortly after because I read they were nerfed quite a big plus I decided I wanted to make a melee wizard that can tank or off-tank for my party. Over the past couple of days I've been trying find info and I'm pretty sure the build will be viable but I need some advice. Will I be able to make a viable tank/off-tank wizard that can still dish out good damage and help with CC, buffing and debuffing or is this asking to much? I'm going to do my first playthough on hard and think I want to go with a Moon Godlike. I also think I want to use summoned weapons cause they sound fun with other spells to complement. If the build is viable can you give me some info on recommended attributes, skills and talents? I had a look at the builds thread but none of them seem to be what im looking for. Thanks! Moggles
