Help w/ AA's lvl 20 PvP

[Thaylee]

I'm a level 17 warlock w/ 13 AA's. I think I'm going to stop leveling at lvl 20-22, I turned combat xp off at level 14 but not really sure how many AA I'll be able to get by the time I reach that level. My question is since I wont be able to get 20+ AA's by the time I I get to to my level cap, and that means I won't get mana shield. Should I put my points in in  my AE skills? or dots. or should I put my points in my sorcerer tree, and where?MY play style is mainly group pvp oriented, normally I have at least 2 friends w/ me.If you don't pvp don't bother replying, I know what to do w/ my pve guy. I'm just new to pvp and want a few peoples opinions on what they think is best . Thanks.

You're too low to hit the diminishing returns curve.  I'd suggest either dropping it all into INT, or bumping up your Mage shielding in the EoF lines.A combination of the two would likely be the best.

Just take into consideration that there are discoveries in those dungeouns for the most part. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

I would go ward line full out.  Use adornments to make up for int.  Start grinding green quests.  at 17 you can find them all over.  Also do the historys of the races and named killing in FG,BB,SH,WC, and you should be able to get enough AA by 22 for mana shield.  If your not locked and are xping normally you will not.  GL

Noob question, what's FG/SH/WC? I assume BB = butcherblock?

fg=firemyst gully, sh=stormhold, wc=wailing caves.At low level pvp, dump it all into magi's shielding in your EoF tree.  Once you get enough points for focused casting, i would recommend respeccing to get it, or dumping the next 21 points you get into it, then go for Manashield(End ability, stamina line).Have fun, with combat xp for all pvp kills, you will continue to level.  I wouldn't put too much stock into staying lowbie, just keep your AAs high, expect to die a lot, and have fun.  The absolute worst thing you can do is get bummed out over a poor kvd ratio, just enjoy the people you kill, and live for the thrill of jumping a full group and dropping as many as you can before you go down.  Carry a pumice stone when you have the status for it, makes a scout pretty useless with no buffs.
