Knight
This template is the best all-around PVM character. You can solo anything any game except maybe Oaks and Neira spawns.
Animal Lore 113.2 - To get to 99% control chance with 105.5 taming
Animal Taming 105.5
Magery 100.0 + tome
Necromancy 95.0 + bloodwood
Spirit Speak 105.0 + bloodwood
Wrestling 105.3
Spellweaving 96.0 (If I'm spawning Oaks, this gets switched out for 96 Resisting Spells. 96 Eval is an option in regular PvM)
You'll need to get 100% LRC, 40 LMC and and as much MR as you can manage. Make sure you carry plenty of cure, heal and confusion blasts. Don't go to Oaks without refresh.
If you are using spellweaving, you are going to want 4/6, but could get by with 3/6. Get a Level 6 focus from Sanctuary.
Do this:
Say All Follow Me
Pre-cast Invisibility
Run into the midst of monsters
When the monsters flag you, position yourself (preferably near a wall) so that the dragon is between you and the mobs
Drop the invis on yourself
Wait a few seconds until everything is attacking your dragon
Pop out with "all stay" so your dragon doesn't move or invis himself
Stand BEHIND your dragon so that no spawn will target you and spam thunderstorm
When the mobs are running low and not enough of them to maintain your mana while thunderstorm, switch to wither
Use magery to heal dragon when necessary
Repeat this until the champ is out
I like having a second Mage Stealth Vet Character at the spawn to rez my dragon when things go awry.
Notes:
If spawn pops up behind you while you are withering, do all you can to get reinvised so the spawn flags your dragon. I often cast protection to pull this invis off. When I'm running into spawn with my invis precast and my dragon following, I often run quite a ways to get a whole lot of spawn flagged on me. When I'm about to die, I turn towards to the wall and plant my dragon firmly between the spawn and me. This is usually how I screw up and end up dying when a monster fizzles my invis, but overall it moves the spawn along quicker.
