My Bard
Name and Title 'borrowed' as in Tabletop she is a 14/8 Cleric/Fighter
Cavatina Xarann The Darksong Knight
Dark Elf 16 Bard, 2 Favored Soul, 2 Rogue
Her next life will be 15 Bard, 2/3 Fighter, 2/3 Favored Soul
I haven't decided yet, but yes I'm stuck with Favored Soul with this build.
I'm currently working on a build layout, and will link it here for you when its done.
I solo'd Heroic Elite to 20, then Epic Hard to 28... her damage was fine from 1-20, 20-25 was painful. 25+ is a cake geared up.
Base/Buffed 15 Str 64 + pots and cookies 16 Dex 40 ~ could use to be a bit higher for the Rog lvls 12 Con 36 ~ some room to improve, already 900+hp at 28 16 Int 39 ~ like I said, trapper. epic ring of the archmagi 08 Wis 17 ~ not wearing a wisdom item atm. 16 Cha 35 ~ some room to improve, increases str 12+
saves are 55/72/45, I could take force of personality over Imp Shield bash to improve will saves.
The reason for the stat split this way for me was that I wanted full trapping, and casting skills. I like my points hehe.
If you're willing to give up trapping skills, you can start much lower on intel and higher on con.
64+ Strength (bard rage, divine might, songs, and primal scream = 64) 80+ Strength (potions, cookies, etc) 45% Attack speed hasted, 75% with Action Boost (Acrobat) 29% Double Strike currently, 78% with Action Boost (Divine Crusader) 50 Melee Power at the moment 25% chance to Dodge currently 75+ DC Fascinate Crap DC Dancing Ball, Crap Spell Pen, for now
Full SWF line, shield mastery, Imp Shield Mastery, precision, ic pierce, and imp shield bash. the last can be swapped with stunning blow, I just didnt use it that much and found 20% extra shield bashes more useful for my playstyle, and I like the graphic.
Using Favored Soul to gain:
~Angel Of Vengeance~ 7 Pts Font of Power (+1 Spell Power, +2 Spell Points, x7) Smiting (+2 to Fire/Light/Physical/Force Spell Crit Chance) Angelic Resistance (+1 Save vs Magic, x2) Articles of Faith (Favored Weapon = Implement)
~Warpriest~ 11 Pts Smite Foe (useless at higher levels, +2 AC, +5 Fire/Light SP) Divine Might (Cha Mod to Str for 120 Seconds, x3) Righteous Weapons (+1 Enhancement to Short Swords, x2) Wall of Steel (+10 PRR, 3 points can be saved here)
This also gives me access to 7 Min Nightshield and Protection From Evil spells.
Yes, this build can be improved upon by a huge distance, but she does amazing the way she is.
Without Songs, With Boat Buffs and Enchant Weapon Thunderforged Shortsword looks like this... 4.75 [1d6] +16 13-18 x3, 19-20x4 Atk/Dam +23 (56 Str) +48 Universal Spell Power
Fire Spell Power: 308 Light Spell Power: 292 Positive Spell Power: 262 Sonic Spell Power: 291
kinda rambling here, hope that helped.
