im glad no one said anything about the dragonmark as i want Ddoor.


I'm a fan of it, too.

Mostly for the, "Did you just scroll that?" reactions.  Cheesy

thanks guys, much appreciated. I will look into your advice after work and see how he pans out. im glad no one said anything about the dragonmark as i want Ddoor.


Ah, I missed the ddoor bit, that's why I recommended you drop so much human. Fair enough. In which case, I'd just drop some of the extra dex/filler from the other trees to fit in the minimum for the mark, this should do it:

Human (8 AP)
  • Damage Boost
  • Dragonmark Focus: Orien III, Improved Recovery
  • Lesser Dragonmark: Dimension Door

Deepwood Stalker (26 AP)
  • Far Shot, Sneak Attack, Exposing Strike, Advanced Sneak Attack
  • Stealthy III, Increased Empathy III, Versatile Empathy II
  • Survivalist
  • Survivalist, Favored Hunter III, Dexterity
  • Survivalist, Killer III

Tempest (46 AP)
  • Shield of Whirling Steel, Tempest, Graceful Death, Deflect Arrows, Whirlwind, Dervish
  • Improved Defense III, Whirling Blades
  • Improved Parry III, Whirling Blades, Haste Boost III
  • Whirling Blades, Dexterity
  • Elaborate Parry III, The Growing Storm III, Whirling Blades, Dexterity
  • Dual Perfection, Evasive Dance III, Cuts: A Thousand Cuts III, Whirling Blades, Dance of Death III


Then you can drop any of the feats for the DM. I'd suggest dropping mobility probably (take DM at level one, then take dodge where I put mobility).

I'm more a fan of carrying around the level 11 hireling if I know I'll use Ddoor often enough in a quest for it to matter. Each to their own so no comments there as it can always be squeezed in.

Drop D-Door and take Know the Angles.  +7/8 a swing is nothing to sneeze at.

I will take a look into Harper but that's 6AP to get to, which pretty much negates having AP (other than human damage boost) spent in human

DDoor?  I thought that is what Bards are for.

I primarily solo 95% of the time so Ddoor comes in handy when the "o shit" meter goes off.

nonetheless, that i drafted my specs negating human tree, adding the Harper "know the angels III" as I think minus 1/2 the modifier I will still be able to still swing 6.5 extra damage
