Hey, just figured I would share some rather useful advice for those that are new to the game.
First off let's talk about the most important aspect of your bot, his intelligence. Without an ample amount of intelligence your bot will not be smart enough to win battles, I recommend between 50 and 80 base intellect below level 100, and 150-200 at higher levels.
Second, no matter what weapon path you are following, you should always use a shield, shields give extra xp gains and generally improve survivability, which is especially important for strength bots when fighting balance bots.
Now, you may be thinking this advice seems a bit unusual, but it's just how the mechanics in bots work and it just adds to the unique gaming experience that is botsIV.
I will update this with more info when I get the chance, I hope this is helpful for some of you.

After reading this, i redissed 35 points to Int and my bot gained 2 levels instantly! I also notice my bot is a far more interesting conversation partner. Quality time! Thank you Asmo! |

Con is overrated amongst the majority of players, int is where it is at. |

Int only starts to decrease when you´ve passed you BMI. |

Is there a proper ratio of stat point distribution |

[12 years, 307 days ago] |
Nope. Your stats should be dictated by equipment goals, not a set STR:DEX:CON ratio. |

Well, I am back from vacation, and look at how many levels my bot gained while I was away? Empirical evidence that the information I have provided within the thread is accurate. |
