Ok.. ive been mostly playing some type of  AA for quite a while now on all sorts of builds. And if not playing a random aa.. playing es warlock.

But now.. all my builds are going to be fucked yet again. So.. im asking a few things here now.

1. best range build post u36
2. best build for doing racials/reaper
3. Best past life build template that all you do is add lvls of what you want past life in.

Id appreciate the help. And build info/layout.. thx

O hai!

I think that somesort of Artie/Rog splash X-bow build will be superior.
Just have to turn the damn sound effects so that stupid "plink-plink-plink" sound doesn't drive you insane.

Your easy button for racials is still going to be warlock.  and here's a hint, if you were using the Auralock for this, you weren't using the best version of warlock.  Using cone only loses you 3d6 at level 20 (and you won't be level 20 if you are doing racials)

A)  Warlocks are still fine because they didn't nerf anything that really matters

B)  Crossbow builds are still fine.  Just more Arti and Mechanic now than Ranger.  But they were OP before Great Terror.  They are OP now.

C)  Nothing else really changed.

I liked my little Deep Gnome light repeater artificer before but with the new U36 changes, he's a hell of a lot better.

The change to Endless Fusilade and the extra crit multiplier added in the Battle Engineer Core 6 (Master Engineer) enhancement REALLY helps.

Unfortunately, the extra crit threat range increment of the Tier 5 Reconstructed Armaments enhancement is a Competence modifier just like it is in the Tier 4 Gnomish Weapon Training Deep Gnome racial enhancement. The Gnome version is better because it also increases your weapon's to hit and damage by +2. A 15-20 Crit Range would have been really nice. Oh, well.

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

The Arti version can work with heavy repeaters instead of light, and well, other weapons that no one is going to use.

shield berserker build is op.

repeater arty looks good for heroic racial reaper template. harper int to hit, int to dmg spell from class, max kta tiers has synergy with sunder and trip dc in active attacks, of which there are 3. An additional 1 to threat range, 10% movement speed, and fusilade for 18 seconds. Pretty good enhancement tree. Base of the build is just 6 arty levels. The new battle engineer tree is rather pricey however, and should run around 36 ap at level 12 for the tier 5s. Pairing it with kensei cores 1-3 gives slight doubleshot and critical multiplier, giving your heavy repeater +1/+1 when combined with battle engineer tier 5. All comes online around level 12 fully.

Overabundance of heroic feats leaves the build with enough to spare for some combination of completionist, insightful reflexes, both ranged power feats, and metas. The potion throwing is easy to aim now and can be meta'd for a decent aoe heal. arty also gets dr bypass imbues, traps, and umd.

The real op build was 6 ranger 8 artificer 2( rogue for more dos or monk for more defense) rest of classes don't matter. The amount of damage being pumped out per bolt volley was sick. Try it if you can tell before U36 drops.

6 ranger 8 artificer

with imbues gone and new BE tree, there is little dws offers over kensei. 8 artificer isn't even needed because there are enough feats without having to grab the 8th lv and get the bonus feat. ftr splashed can even heavy armor. the core capstone is rather weak, with the crit multi getting replaced with just 6 fighter levels. it's only losing out on 4 int, but spending more ap to access kensei tree rather than spending 5~ more ap to get the capstone.

the kensei enhancements are only slightly better than the cap, gaining the damage bonus from 3 tiers of specialization, weapon focus stacks on vorpals, extra action boosts(pushing fusilade to 11 base uses), crit multi and 3 doubleshot. But there is more room to front load for feats in heroic play this way and the build doesn't have to wait to lv 18/20 for capstones, allowing for more dps by level 12 than the 20 pure
