Fast iconic builds?
Apr 9th, 2014 at 1:00am
Print Post  
Feeling build lazy lately. Planning to go through 2xPDK then 3xShadarkai and 3xMorninglord.

Not swapping forced class level with LRs.

Quick and easy EH streaking to 28.

Shit, whatever I can find gear available.

My current pdk centered kensei kinda bored me  Sad

What to do for the next 2 pdk and the others? No druids, sadly don't own it.

Apparently, it was free to VIPs, when I dropped subscription I lost it.

Sucked because a druid build is what I wanted to try next...

any preferred play style?

Blade barrier Zerging is pretty effective in EH, you'll get sprint boost free after your first pdk life too.

Aww PDK lives with Pastlifenmo is like the easiest to do man. It sucks not to have druid.

At least XP or Cov grind is no longer that painful  Wink

Well, pure meleeing tends to bore me, like the current build. Pretty much open to anything outside that.

I'm sure I wouldn't mind a build crapping BBs at all  Grin

A couple ideas come to mind.

Morninglord- 17 bard/2 fighter/1 cleric Warchanter. Grab divine might from War Priest.

Shadar-kai-  13 Rogue Acrobat/ 7 Monk Henshin Stick Fighter.

Yeah it does suck, had been thinking about a druid something build.

Then when I tried to make a dummy iconic to check enhancements I noticed class was gone.

Focusing on PDK for now:

Non Druid divine route:
You've got the flameblade pastlife right?  I'd just go totally wisdom based, shitting blade barriers.

17cleric/2monk/1fighter = implosion, blade barrier, quick recall wings via ED.

17fvs/2monk/1fighter = wings, blade barrier quick recall, class wings.

Alternately you could also go for an Arcane Nuking pm:
17wiz/1fighter/2rogue (monk if you don't give a fuck about traps) in Draconic.

If you prefer more hybridy:

16bard/2fighter/fvs - completely cha based to max your DC's, make sure you get cormaryan knight training.
I'd probably play it in draconic, spamming soundburst, twisting cleaves and extra action boosts from LD.

Hahahahaha. Purchased the MotU standard pack, never played druid.

For PDK just go 17/2/1 sorc/pal/fighter. Or even 19/1 sorc/fighter. That's more than enough for eh streaking your way to 28. Just buy some randgen gear and you're good.  Tongue

You get a whack of xp for talking to someone after doing all the quests in the saga. I use them for renown so I end up doing tons of GH Elite Streaks. Trying to see how long it takes one person to level a guild.

Don't know the cleric/fvs enhancements much, which one do you think offers the best damage output?

Divine disciple. I spend the majority of my points in there. The only reason I put points into any other divine tree was for low hanging fruit in Warpriest (PRR\saves\HP) or for extra WIS in Radiant Servant.

Ultimately it depends on which class you choose.

for fvs I'll spend mostly on AOV, cleric divine desciple.

I'd probably go with FVS and AOV because I think it'll be quicker to get through epics in Draconic with FVS wings.

Well I did know those would probably be the choices for a caster build but I meant, which one of those offers the best stuff?

Because...I might end up gimping myself for some time next life and go through the new ED for some fate points (2 more I think if you had all others maxed?). Kind of why I'm wondering which one offers the most power without EDs.

Imo the enhancements are close enough, that personally the sp and wings from fvs make it the better option.

2fighter/1wiz

Or 1fighter/2monk is the tougher choice imo. 

I had a look this morning, id be leaning towards 2fighter 1wiz after looking at the feats.

Wings are indeed tempting since I'm not getting any way to boost my speed, will probably do that.

What do you really want out of the 2ftr vs 9th spells? Implosion would probably not be a bad thing to throw in EH content.

What feats are you thinking of for the build? See if I'm not too far off, haven't been a caster in forever  Undecided

1. (F)Cleave, power attack, (h)stunning blow
3. Completionist
6. Maximise
9. Quicken.
12. Heighten
13. (W) empower
14. (F) great cleave
15. Wiz past life
18. Icrit
21. Sf evo
24. Mental toughness
26. Spell power force
27. Ruin

I like the idea of ignoring the cha damage and using the flame blade past life for wis based melee damage, but im not sure how practical theyll turn out.

The flame blade thing is the active druid feat no? Takes a feat. (Unless you just wrote PL wiz instead of that)

I'll go full caster I think though, current life meleeing was boring.

All the caster stuff you listed I picked so yay not too far off, I'll just change the melee feats for other things.

It's not in the list because I don't know how practical it would be, Im just kicking the idea around for now.
