Jaeger Bomb.  A low cost alternative to serious gear grinding Displacement clickies.

I have been watching Youtube videos of players soloing Epic Elite end game quests.  I see the amount of gear and resources that it takes to survive, mainly Displacement clickies.  As I have 5-6 main toons I am unable and unwilling to invest this much time/grind into any one build/toon.  Here is the build that I am going to use for my next TR on one of my toons.

My inspiration came from this build. 
https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/434122-Jaeger-build-12-6-2?highlight=j...

Centered Kensi-Jaeger
Fighter12, Wizard6, Monk2
Two Weapon Fighting with Khopesh/ Bastard Swords.  You can swap in 2HF if you want.  This would allow less investment in Dex.

Why 12 Fighter instead of 12 monk?
Gains- Power Surge, Haste Boost, Keen Edge, +3 Tactics, More weapon flexibility (I have a set of MinII Khopesh for heroic levels and 2x Nightmare Bastard swords for epic levels) Just do it Fred.
Lost- Abundant Step, Improved Evasion, Fast Movement, Philosophy, Shadow Veil,

Why Wizard 6?
This is the core of the “poor man’s” theory.  Wizard 6 gives you
Displacement SLA from Archmage Enhancement Illusion School for 6 Spell Points and with Extend lasts 72 seconds.
Blur SLA from AM Illusion School.
Wand and Scroll mastery 3 gives 75% bonus to Heal and Repair scrolls.
Haste and Rage

Why Monk 2 vs. Rogue vs. keeping Paladin
Monk stances, in addition to Evasion, are better than the Paladin Bonus to saves and Divine Might.  Both will work though.

Monk is better than Rogue for the same reasons.  Rogue would give you trap skills.  Does nothing to help with EE survivability. 

Race-
I will be going with Bladeforged with a LR+1 to get rid of the Paladin level.  I just happen to have the LR otherwise this is a big investment.
Other race options are okay but BF is king right now.  Halfling with Dragon mark healing, Human with UMD, even old school Warforged if you do not own BF.

Starting Ability Stats
Str-16
Dex- 13
Con-14
Int-11
Wis- 12
Cha-14

Tomes
+4 Strength at a minimum for Over Whelming Critical until the changes to OC. 
+4 Dex to reach 17 and GTWF
The rest can be as you have them.  13 INT required to cast level 3 spells, etc.

Skills-Max out CONC, UMD and Repair.  Dump 10 into Jump, 1 into Tumble and the rest as you see fit.

Standard feats + Fighter Feats = 7 standard feats, Fighter feats at level 1,2,4,6,8,10,12

You will need 6 levels of Wizard to unlock Archmage core 3 for Displace SLA. Or go 5 Wizard taking Displace and Haste as your two level three spells along with extended meta.

Some good ideas there, cheers. I was thinking about coming back for a bit when the winter sets in. Was mulling over a 11Rgr/5Wiz/4Mnk Bladeforged for fun but this might be better.

Oh this is neat!  I will tr into a halfling version, not a big bot player.

Thanks for posting!

Consider some variation with Elf race. Racial Displacement SLA when using a Dragonmark is useful, too and allows a different class setup.

except I am going to be spending a feat and a fair few enhance points for the furry feet 

EChimera has lvl 20 displace clickies?

Fuck a duck i had no idea

The added "clickies" of dragon mark uses would be very handy.  Thank you for the tip.

onions wrote on Aug 14^th, 2014 at 3:42pm:

I can understand elf would make a nice melee based on the "free" displacement.  If that is what you are after.  I also need self cast Rage, Haste, Blur (for my guildmates), Fireball for Web's, Gust of wind etc.

I will be doing this TR next week when I cap another toon.

Not from my experimenting on lam.

Warning!  This build cannot be done on Live without at least 2 Lesser hearts of wood +1. 

First level of BF is always Pally.  To take that off you need a heart.  But the heart will not work as it would give you a potential 4th class.  I scrapped this build (for now) and just went with a BF Centered Kensi 12 fighter, 6 monk, 2 pally.

No matter what you do you will have to start the build with Paladin 1.  Add in two other classes such as the Wizard and fighter combo you suggested.  As soon as you LR to get rid of the 1 paladin you would have a potential 4th class.  The LR mechanic will not allow it.  I would have to LR the 1 paladin away and end up with fighter 10 and wizard 5.  Then  level up and take 2 monk.  The problem is exactly as you described it. I want to take 2WF with a free monk feat at monk level 1 or 2.  I also need to reserve the level up feat at level 15 (or before) for Master of Forms and 18 for Grand Master of forms.  It can be done however it would take 2 hearts.  I am not ready to invest that much into one life that is untested.

You can do it with one +3, can't you? Which is cheaper than two +1s iirc.
