How should i spec an animist?Follow

Go Arb. spec with the rest in Verd.

If you want so solo well and want to be able to help nuking in groups go Arb. spec .

Verdant path for the group support in rvr as well as in pve

50 Arb. and 20 verdant is what I would go .

Arb. animist get really strong nukes and there Aoe nuke is the most powerfuls one in hib .

The are real fun classes but difficult to start with:)

I am an Animist that solo'd to lvl 50 killing oj/reds...here is plan
I went full undergrowth so my standard creeping turrents were less resisted...
cast main controlable snare pet from undergrowth line then regain mana...in same spot cast 4 or 5 of your best pet , cast regen pet on them so you get it too...then go and pull a oj/red or 3(3 at once is great xp) make sure as your approaching shrooms with critters that you get your main shroom to snare them..not really ezzential if you pump sprint...run a wide circle around your shroom patch and watch them eat what you brought...if they catch you pump sprint for 3 secs then turn off...rgen will keep HP up and the who;e affair will last about 40sec .
If you time it perfect the 1st shroom is dieing just after the fight...you can kill 3 at once or 1 at a time but 3 is about all you will get from a stack until you get crystal lore and can put out 7 shrooms ...if you pull Purples you must get yourself hit so shrooms will attack as they dont attack Purp unless defending you/grp
try it...Gluck..

PS. I solod my Epic with this tactic
