You know, I'm always the kind of guy that would say "go for it!" On the whacky builds, but honestly, I'd say don't try this one. It's very not fun and unsuccessful especially with the low hit%. Stick to int or dex ;)

I'm going with Micah on this one, I believe that you should stick with 112 Int/67 Dex. My voodoo would beat a copperhead mage anyday ;D

Really? My Copper Bear (God rest his soul) had around 92-93% hit at pure strength. My first thought would be the horrendous mana regen. Maybe tis why I stayed away from PvP. :)

Hit% really isnt the problem of Copperhead. Most copperpallies used to go str/int because they didnt even need the hit from dex .-.
But the loss in m/s, skilldmg and no ranged auto isn't worth the additional armor.
I haven't pvped at 35 since before fbows came out but I guess they only made life harder for pallies...

Would be the same for all classes. PL is the only STS game where gear/stats play an equal role in all classes.

My failure pally. I do great against non hween and forg users, though. Fighting voodoos that know how to kite is rather challenging as well. ;)

Copperhead Mage fails simply because of the mana regen and the damage. I would go with a reaper at least

Bro, why are you so wealthy in platinum and gold.
Also who's the master of "Prestige?"

If y'all don't mind, lemme clarify my last post.
Generally copperhead mages are also associated with green ice.
Green ice problems-
1. Low hit is a problem. Especially with birds who use blind shot and their dang forgotten bow stuff xD
2. They're weak because they lack armor.
3. Low mana regen
Copperhead set problems-
1. While hit % should be slightly above 100%, birds with high blind (which can debuff up to 30%) and their dang forgotten bow again will still debuff hit.
2. As stated though by Crimson, that^ isn't the biggest problem. The biggest problem I've found with copper mages is the low damage and mana regen.
Honestly copperhead is a dead set. If you want to be strength at all as any class, you'll want a reaper and that skull cage shield (name escapes me at the moment.) Maybe copperhead armor or helm, but certainly not the full set.
