End-game or leveling builds?

Which do you prefer?  and maybe throw out a example.

I am currently running a arti/rog/rgr that is a sniper build, but really only comes into its own as a "sniper" until lv 23.  The grind to that point was more something to get through then enjoy.

Whereas a horcrobat build was fun to level with but less enjoyable past 23.

Both.

Most endgame builds are shit for leveling. Most leveling builds are shit for endgame. If endgame = EE stuff.

Right now I'm going through all the iconics, so just shitting BBs as a FVS. Elite streak to 20, epic hard streak to 28.

If I was planning to stay capped, I'd go for an endgame build, which are usually a lot suckier to level until they get more powerful capped and geared.

I'm really enjoying 16clr, 2fvs, 2mnk.  In crusader destiny.  Light spamming frenzy (which I am doing for iconic and clr past life (with ETR's for divine destiny past lives))

Once I complete this life @ 28 going back to 16fvs, 2monk, 2 pal though, which I think is better from the saves and such.

My end game is leveling...

Changed my Bladeforged 16air/2monk/2pal after 6 lives to a Drow cha build to run crusader for 3 ETR.  12sorc/6fvs/2pal fire nuker with soundburst sla.  I miss wings and evasion but love the dps more.  Haven't had a problem staying alive more than the BF version either.

Must suck to wrong as often as you are.  DPS feels fine.  I'm pretty much unkillable unless knocked down.

Both have there place.  Some can be both kinds of builds but I find that complex or "late bloomers" need to be near cap to excel.  Monkchar and Exploiter come to mind. 

Some awesome leveling builds suck at endgame.   

Best leveler ever?  1st level barb/ranger(sprint boost) and 19 levels Sorc.

Best endgame build ever?  Old school Necro/Lich DC Wizard.  With Dreamspitter.

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

Prefer end-game, but like leveling too...

EndGame: 14/4/2 Bladeforged Shiradi Sorc.

Leveling: Pure FvS or any build with 14+ Sorc (FB/DBFB 4TW)
