My 20 monk Xhiron is on monk life 3 and is itching for some fighter action.

Theory building at the the moment with some "thematic" elements....

LN: Halfing 2Druid/2Monk/16Fighter
Leveling order is what makes sense...
Str 6 (3): 9 +4 Tome, 13 for PA
Dex 10 (3): 13 +4 Tome for GTWF
Con 8 (8): 15 +4 Tome yada yada
Int 8 (6): 14 +3 Tome
Wis 8 (16): 18 +4 Tome, +7 Level-Ups
Cha 8 (0): 8

Skills: Bluff, Concentration, Heal, UMD the rest w/e.

Feats:
2 Monk: Stunning Fist, Dodge
9 Fighter: TWFx3, Mobility, Spring Attack, WF: Bludgeon, Weapon Finesse, Cleave, Great Cleave
7 Heroic + 3 (soon to be 4) Epic: PBS, Precise Shot, WS: UA, IC:Bludgeon, DM of healing, Emp Heal Spell, Adept and Master of Forms, Blinding Speed, Skill Focus UMD OR GMaster of Forms.

Enhs-Kensai Druid Weapons + Halfling Goodies and a sprinkling of low hanging fruit in Natures Warriror, Shintao, Henshin, Ninja.

Should end up with significant levels of dodge, SA, Bluff.

Can hit useful levels of PRR before too much diminishing returns.

AC is non considered...if I have some great...if I don't great...

Primarily using HW but with Druid Weapon Group can use Kensai abilities with Scimitars (Frostbite Blades), HW(Thunder and Lightning, Antipodes, Grave Wrappings), QStaff (Sireth) and ZOMG Sickles (jk Celetias or w/e)!!!!!

Make a staff build!

8 fighter 6 monk 6 rogue. Or modify various parts of it, but you'll need at least 5 rogue for the full acrobat tree. The qstaff damage of the monk and rogue trees allegedly stack. Get the tactics bonus and the trip bonus off the fighter and rogue trees respectively. Fighter feats should let you get CE and imp trip. It'll be up to you to choose str or dex based - but if you balance them out you'll have 2 trip effects (imp trip and the rogue qstaff AoE trip which is dex based but looks awesome).

I'm going 8 F / 6 M / 6 Ranger for my next life. Dual wielding Deathnips. It is mainly for heroics though...I'll probably only play a couple of levels in epics before I TR again. Should be fun!

I dont like stunning blow at all. 16 second cooldown and having to boost your str into the 70s just to get a 70ish dc on it blows.

Roll a 9m 9f 2d. Wis based, enough str just for OC. Your prr can hit 140, ac 120, dodge capped, shadow fade, stun fist in 70s DC every 6 seconds,  g2wf, deflect arrow, empower heal, that build can even squeeze in whirlwind. Which is just fukin ludicrous on a glitched wrap build.

Hahahahaha....hahahahaha "just get an esos"...


That's funny....

After almost five years I've seen exactly 1 sos drop on any difficulty..

It was a MAC guild run.  Four of us still in dungeon. Two rangers, a wizard and me on my first life drow FVS.  The wizard gets SoS in chest.  Says like like bleh! Do any of you want this? 

Ranger one: No I'm Tempest...
Ranger two: No I'm AA but would vendor it...

Me...(thinking) no fucking way am I gonna let it get vendored so I say I'll use it...and it sat in that toons bank for about four years....

I did just do a 2 pal/2rogue/16fvs on that toon Iquitz...leveling with the sos.

Max Str, 16 Cha, 14 Int/Con....was beastly....then trd back to 2monk/18Fvs evoker.

But after chasing torcs and gd ross for fucking years....yeah grinding to upgrade just one half ass toons sos to an esos is not gonna happen let alone trying for second  base item.

Fuck that dumb fucking horseshit...

Until they add every shard in epic and every base item in 20th runs i won't be bothered...

And I really don't like thf at all but can tolerate qstaff...so yeah...

Yeah that esos has horror story written all over it.

Sireth might actually be better single target non cleave dps. Same profile as esos 13-20 x3. And it gets 30% faster attack speeds. But you have to be in Thief Acrobat tree tier 5.

Great axes can have x8 multipliers in LD, glancing blows are 500~ aoe strikes.

Shhhhhhh! Hush you!

Can't you see I'm trying to sway public opinion towards gimpish halfass builds?

Comments like these don't help my cause

Fists of Iron is +3[w] +1 crit range and +1 crit multiplier

Strike of the Enduring (triple earth finisher) is +2 crit multipler

Both pair nicely when used right after an Adrenaline

If your still looking for easy ideas to get the fighter past life while not being gimpy,you could always do the 6ranger/6rogue/8class of past life feat that you want.
Low levels use cleave and great cleave, high levels use alchemical khopeshes, or stick with sos till cap
Having all the free feats from ranger is nice, and all the skill points from both ranger and rogue is pretty rediculous.
But this build is mainly just to get you to level 20.

The Ameliorating strike is nice, but it is in no way a game changer, you should just splash 1 fvs and go rest barbarian since barbs get their rage enhanced as they level up.

Raging is overated for low levels really, it prevents you from using scrolls and other scroll goodies.
Unless you dont mind going in defensive stance each time you need healing :#
