Thinking about 15 palie 4 ranger 1 fighter myself for a 2 weapon fight build, no idea what weapons to use tho, i really like kopeshes but that is mostly a feeling from pre motu ddo that was inscribed in my body, rams and all t4 tempest cores, 2 spell slots from palie /t5 are kinda weak unless the evasion thing can work with h armor then i would do a 15 palie 5 ranger prolly.

Could fit in ranged feats but i doubt ranged bow dps will be even close to melle in update.
Well thats best i can figure out atm to get the most from palie.
Maybe a full char build with all the regular feats etc, but that as well depends on how int harper thing works and interacts with 2 weapon fiht.
If it works as its written, heck then a total abomination could be good.
A sun elf palie ranger in based with char as 2ndary stat..
Jesus what the fuck did they do to ddo when im thinking that a build like this could be viable... Sigh

4 ranger/1 fighter would be better no? (gain rams & pick up precise shot so no feat lost)

Deathnips or drow weapons? (thinking of already extended crit range)

...or /1 monk & centered earth using brush hooks

No doubt you can do that man. Compared to live I can fit IPS, IC ranged ditching Cleaves and Mobility.
But going with cmw only is quite significant drop, capstones in all trees are pretty good, vorpal against undead is good. DW as spell is good convenience.
I really like Vanguard, staying pure has one advantage for me - can dick around going back and forth with just Siberys shard ( or as ) or LR.
Back to the tanky s+b one week and thf or twf another week.

I was preaching "you gotta have ranged" too but kinda bored playing pally like a damn ranger heh.
I don't know really, haven't played for a while ( not serious break but " took care of mails on all gimps break" ).

The tweaks on tempest are a good start but just not enough to make them competitive yet, although they certainly add more and end game levels when the proc com into play.

They seem to be going in order of worst to best in adjusting the classes, if barbarian is next like many expect that'll more or less confirm this.

Tempest is weak, especially with Paladin, which was the more survivable class, getting so much love. At this rate we'll see ranger adjusted in about 1.5 years.
