So, I made a Ravager, and I'm loving the high damage it gives, but I'm definitely hurting as far as traps and certain dialogue checks go. I have average Perception and high Dexterity, but I was wondering if it might be better to go for average Dexterity and high Perception, since I plan on wearing armour with less recovery time. Would 15 or 16 Perception be enough for most dialogues/traps, or am I better off sticking with high Dexterity and using food and items to get the Perception I need?

I'd go high dex and high per. Low res and lowish might and medium con.

Hmm. So maybe 12/14/15/15/10/9 before racial bonuses? Or is that too conservative?

I'm a Helwalker, so in-combat Might shouldn't be a big problem. Plus there seem to be more items that give might than give Perception.

Does Tenacious inspiration stack with the helwalker might buff BTW?

 

Also if you intend on sitting on your wounds instead of spending them you will have another 10int right there from monk modal.

 

Honestly I haven't played Helwalker so I don't know how squishy u get but on my Berserker/Drugmonk I dumped res all the way and might to 10 and he is trainwrecking on solo Veteran currently on lvl 11.

 

In fights I'm at 30Int with two area of effect rings heh.

 

I try to keep my armour rating really high to compensate, using devil of carocs armour and potions to absorb blows.
