If you're going to swap a dilettante AND up charisma, why not go for helf: pally?

or is 20 hp and dr 1/- that much more valuable than an extra stacking 5 to fort/reflex/will at higher levels?

I wouldn't go for tier 3 of paladin dill, it's not efficient AP wise.  The sweet spot is tier 1 and maybe tier 2.  But tbh, paladin dill is kind of lackluster, since you can swap in situational gear to bump your reflex as well as rely on human versatility.  And fighter dill is useless because you can just splash a level with almost no penalty since the capstone is useless. 

Depending on what you want, arti dill is decent if you want to healblob, but just going human is the best option for cleric hands down. 

Also, SPLASH.  Pure cleric is flavor build.

*nods* I hear you.

I think I will continue to chew through a daily diet of current expansions on the Soul, because no matter how sexy some of the stuff looks, it isn't anywhere near as flexible as the token system, and I can see farming for, say, 4 slots and then wanting to fill in the rest through current complimentary epic gear, in theory. I certainly won't do anything world shattering on day 1. I was excited for druid, but my limited play on Lama made me think Arti in alternate skin. And Arti still feels unfinished to me - I feel sorry for the newbs that plonked down TPs for it (even though it was an unholy pain to unlock...).

I just moved and don't have stable internet.

Of course it is perfect timing, because I wasn't planning on playing much til the enhancement update. Maybe they'll have found the huge bugs by then and will have druid available for veteran tion.

Well, the forged fighter's gone over to the flesh side finally. Probably gonna hold 18 for a while while I mull over how likely they are to gut evasion soon, seeing as how the difference in PRR just isn't that big when it comes to heavy+shield+stance+destinies vs light+shield+stance+destinies. Likely end up going Dread to Sentinel with a layover to pick up some low hanging fruit from Shiradi.

The wiz/rogue's going to turn into more of a thug than usual, most likely, with a lock em down and beat em brainless mentality where killing means a damned thing, and a charm em and let the brainless ones cry about their kill-count while those with a clue move on in the content where it doesn't. Could just crack out the baby sorc more often.

No significant changes for the arty. Probably go with fatesinger+shadowdancer for a while. Pitty there's so little in dread that's worth much to that type when it comes to transitioning to Shiradi.

I find myself glad my clonk's built primarily for casting with a side of stunning, since 'holding church' still works. At least for now. Not that I've been real motivated lately to level the thing.

Few old concepts I'm lookin at here and there in terms of 'things that should not be', like 13/7 rogue/paly.

My plan is to be bloody careful, and certainly not TR any character until I am certain there are no game/character breaking bugs.

I dont trust Turbine one bit on Monday 25th  Cool

Hmmm... I might have to consider that, if I can get my CHA up to 13 (not sure I was planning to take it that high, but I'll have to play around with it)

Thanks for the suggestion. Seriously Smiley

That'll give me enough fate points to twist +3 Necro DC from Magister and +2 Evocation DC from Draconic Incarnation.


Wouldnt that cost a fair bit of your epic AP? Seeing as how you only get 24 Epic AP, and need 20 spent in a line to open up the tier 6 abilities, would you even have enough AP to get to tier 5 abilities?

For clarity: twists cost Fate Points, not AP. (Well, more properly, upgrading the drop-in slot does.)

I toned it down slightly and checked some coffee induced spelling mistakes and it's up on the ddo forums, should any of you horrible lot be so inclined...

Just genuinely curious on the answers, really.

After the dust settles a bit, I am going to TR my monster build fighter into an Artie. She'll have one past life fighter andone ranger. I'll probably add another Ranger eventually for a little extra crossbow damage.

Melee (except tanks) are now, and have been, a dying concept.

Fek, I was confused since ap's spent on enhancements slotted to twists are taken out of the 24 points associated with that destiny.

Yeah, the flexibility there is upgrading one of the lower tier AP enhancements in a destiny you're not actively using and synergizing with it.

Example would be that Draconic energy shield twised while you're using magister for instance, or vice versa with one of the magister abilities.

Why are you saying that?  I've been soloing all sorts of shit on my melees on Lamania that I couldn't do before like Epic DA.

Play what's fun, if you like melees you can play them, be viable, and not need 5 minstrels following you away the hjeal and bjuff you.

I strongly disagree.  What we see of the expansion is officially complete.

They'll certainly add a few interesting changes that may or may not be tested between now and next Monday.

Look for a physics upgrade hitting test on Sunday afternoon.
