Question Yet Another Voodoo Skill Points Problem

I'm level 23 in Voodoo and I'm not sure where to put the remaining 2 points in. I would have planned it better, had I known the skill cap was 25 a few months ago....

this is my curent config (which I know is far from perfect)

Attune Doll---2
Poke----------5
Swarm--------5
Curse---------5
Scorch--------5 (in retrospect, i would have put ALL of these points elsewhere)
Life Drain-----5

Before I knew of the 25 point cap, I was planning on working to 10 magic resistance, but would it be worth only having 4%? I love Parry and Dodge, but what does everyone think from their experience with the dolls?

Nothing in heal? I would probably put the remaining points there

Ya. When I started Eustace, I did not know about the Cap. I thought I could fill everything.

With your remaining points, you should strongly consider Healing. For staff purposes, focus is very beneficial. The staff uses a ton of voodoo and it is nice to get those additional voodoo points. My PvPer is going to max resist, so it really depends what you want to do.

Me personally, I'd have fun with this pirate and start another to tune more proficiently (which I have now done 3 times to get it right). Good Luck.

Loot Hard!

If you max your Concentration and Conservation, those few extra points in Focus don't matter. Once I got that going I don't run out of voodoo.

Hmmm... What I would do is 1 of 2 things. I would either put 1 point each in Cure and Heal, or I would put 1 in Cure, and 1 in Attune Doll. You will eventually need to heal someone.

I've found RESIST to be pretty useless. The only things I've resisted, were gypsies that I could easily take anyhow. If you do PvP team battles a lot, it probably makes sense. (I avoid PvP, as a rule.)

If your doll is level 23, you are on the cusp of most everything (except Tormenta) suddenly becoming "easy."
