Actually seems like a good build from the people who run this split, but I have yet to test it out personally.

wow he's gotten so lazy about reposting people's builds he's just putting up the damn link XD

Post that build bro plz

Some quick numbers on this to put it in perspective:

Level 18 gives 6d10 for an average of 33 dmg per proc on spellsword damage.

Level 20 gives 7d12 for an average of 45.5 per proc.  So a difference of 12.5 damage per proc.  Considering I was reaching 1200 average spellpower at cap last I ran this that is a x13 factor on the 12.5 for 162.5 more elemental damage per proc.  Then think about the effect of 2 wpn fighting and doublestrike on that and you gotta ask yourself what possible benefit 2 levels of some class can give you that outweighs that.

Then you get the benefit of Eldritch Power about 25% to 35% of the time.  During Eldritch Power you are doing 11d12 damage or 71.5 damage per proc for a difference of (71.5-33) 38.5 damage per proc over a level 18 EK. After spellpower that is 500 more damage per proc than a level 18 can do. This doesn't even take into effect the bonus 10% to all damage it gives, nor the bonus universal spellpower.  Considering what a huge portion of your damage your spellsword proc is, during the Eldritch Power duration (30 seconds) you are doing very close to double the damage a level 18/2 split is doing. Cray cray.

Challenge accepted. If by noob trap you mean can't solo content R5 or higher then I agree.  But if you want something that can plow through epic content on R4 or less with ease, even solo, then they are great.

I like to play them in undead form because of the syngergy.  Let's look at the numbers:


80 profane
15 artifact
40 insight
20 PM enhancement
40 darkhallow set 2 piece filigree
20 inevitable grave filigree
10 new bard fatesinger buff
225 neg healing amp


Death Aura aveage tick is 20 (with master of death feat)
Lesser Death aura tick is 2.5
Duration is 2min 48 seconds
Wellspring of Power cool down 3 mins so you get benefit of Wellspring every time you cast your healing auras.

With Wellspring of Power negative spell power hits roughly 1400 at end game for a 15 times factor. Honestly with buffs to Spellsinger I think spell power might be more but i'll stick with a x15 factor.

22.5 aura ticks per 3 seconds x 15 is 337.5 dmg and healing around you every 3 seconds.
337.5 times 3.25 for neg amp= just about 1100 healing every 3 seconds.
You end up with over a 60% chance for spell crit and over 3 times crit dmg (with Scion of Fire and Wellspring active) but i'll round that to just 3 times crit damage for another factor of
1100 * (1+(.6 *2)) equals 2,420 healing every 3 seconds. (Crits also push up your aura damage to about 750 to everything around you every 3 seconds).

So 2,420 healing every 3 seconds in Legendary Elite.  Reaper healing factor on R4 is 42% so 2,420*.42= 1,016.4 healing per 3 seconds.

But wait, there's more.  New Darkhallow filligree set gives 1d6 healing per hit.  At 3.5 average per hit that is roughly 150 dmg per swing in heals (non reaper) without taking Wellspring into consideration.  Even if there is the internal cooldown of 2 seconds on this heal that is still useful.

I think I convinced myself to run this next life.

PS- New fatesinger gets rid of ALL arcane spell failure so can run in full armor set if you want with this amount of healing lol.

Edit- for fun added numbers for Neg energy burst heal:

Negative Energy burst does 115 average damage with master of the dead feat.
115 x 13.5 factor (no Wellspring)
1,552.5 x 3.25 hamp=
5,045 healing from Neg energy burst
x.42 for R4
2,119 healing every 3.5 seconds if needed (can add max/emp/intensify if needed)

I ran one about 6 months ago and was pretty sure my healing numbers went up. Not 100% sure though. I can test next time I run this build. You never know with SSG.

Didnt you just dog your own build then

I ran the PM-EK-Harpers wiz last life in a low reaper group as a toaster. TWF with battle axes and Knights training. 


I only had somewhere around 12 reaper points and no Racial points, +6 tomes, still not EPL completionist, but had 3xbrace and 3xCotQ.

It was fairly good at all levels, got a huge power/ boost at level 10 since you can equip the beacon of magic set as heavy armor using adamantine feat.

constraints: it was prior to sharn, which has its own set that would work nicely, had 2 other Wizzies with me running PM, so healing was much more evened out, as one of us always had it running. 

We only had a few issues from light casters, clerics in GH ect. 

When I played solo at epics I would swap out of PM and slot in reconstruct which I found to be a really great spell that goes off much faster than any sort of heal.

The PM healing was alright, I didnt min max the gear for it as I was trying to play more defensive than offensive. but there were many quests were my group just ran behind as I cleared the dungeon.

It got a little tight when the mob targeted would step slightly outside melee range when in knights controller and epic defensive fighting and I was trying to do neg energy burst.  so I found it easier to go full bot mode with the swap. prob just need to get gud.

overall I am going to run this build again next life with a dew more tweaks.  Theres enough -asf in the EK t0 tree that I had 0 ASF in heavy armor as a toaster.
