<p>    I am new to the game and have some questions about AA builds. First, what is the best way to earn AA points. I know you get them from questing and exploration. Should I just do all the quests in each zone and what are "warts"(not the ones on toads <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />) I hear people talking about?</p><p>    Ok now to the build question. I plan on going with the solo build from the sticky. My question is what order should I do it in? I am currently lv 20.</p><p><span ><span style="color: #ffffff;"> </span></span><p> I am having a great time with the game. Thanks in advance for any help.</p></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Tank Pet (Solo) Build</span></strong></p><p><strong><em>Summoner AAs - 1</em></strong></p><p><strong>STA - 28</strong></p><p><em>Perceptor's Stamina - 4</em></p><p><em>Shockwave - 8</em></p><p><em>Perceptor's Bodyguard - 8</em></p><p><em>Perceptor's Command - 8</em></p><p><strong>WIS - 24</strong></p><p><em>Animist's Wisdom - 4</em></p><p><em>Animist's Transference - 4</em></p><p><em>Minion's Barrier - 8</em></p><p><em>Minion's Uproar - 8</em></p><p><strong>STR - 17</strong></p><p><em>Theurgist's Strength - 4</em></p><p><em>Animated Dagger - 4</em></p><p><em>Parrying - 4 </em></p><p><em>Wild Channeling - 5</em></p><p><strong>Total - 70</strong></p><hr /><p><strong>Necromancer AAs</strong></p><p><strong>Rotting - 21</strong></p><p><em>Enhance: Rot - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Coil - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Locusts - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Bleeding Ritual - 5</em></p><p><em>Lifeburn - 1</em></p><p><strong>Manipulations - 21</strong></p><p><em>Enhance: Chain - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Dispel Magic - 3</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Grasp - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Fear - 3</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Grisly Mark - 5</em></p><p><em>Tainted Heals - 1</em></p><p><strong>Pacts - 10</strong></p><p><em>Enhance: Heal Minion - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Consumption - 5</em></p><p><strong>Gravecalling - 18</strong></p><p><em>Enhance: Warrior Pet - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Shadow Pet - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Summoning - 5</em></p><p><em>Enhance: Undead Tide - 3</em></p><p><strong>Total - 70</strong></p>

<p>Search this forum and you will see an aweful lot of infor on this already.  To summarize -</p><p>1) AA is gained mostly from questing, discovering new areas and killing named mobs.  How much AA you gain depends on your level vs the level of the quest, zone, or named mob.  However, the amount is somewhat normalized.  So, you can actually gain less AA when you complete a red or orange quest or kill a red named mob than if it was a yellow or white quest/mob.  So, stick to quests/mobs that are yellow, white, blue or green.  Grey quests can still earn some AA although the amount will be small since they are considered too easy.  Also, AA can only be earned when you are level 10+ and the quest/mob is also level 10+.</p><p>2) For soloing I would start with the Manipulations line (all the way up to and including Tainted Heals) followed by Stamina and then Wisdom.  Somewhere along the line put 5 pts into the warrior pet AA of the Gravecalling line.  After that focus on the Rotting line.  After that its up to you.</p>
