Walks the angry, dirty path fun and good 1-40, PvM.

A woman, a former trell, so abused, so downtrodden, so alone she sold her virginity to the Æsir Loki in trade for power. He is the Nightgod, the god of tricksters. This trade brought the woman a child, a son.

On one of his journeys upon Middle-Earth to see that all was well with man, Thor had a communion with a mortal woman. Thor is the God of thunder and fertility. He is also the god of warfare, of wild and berserker combat. This communion also brought a child upon Middle-Earth, a fiery daughter.

In their grown days, these childs met, and even this meeting brought a child to the world. The legend about this Half-Æsir grew. Tales wandering among man said that this young man was shorter than a woman, and was a trickster like Loki. He could duck even the swiftest blow, and was silent and unseen like the darkest night. His fury was from Thor they said, as was his ability to shrug off injuries and withstand massive injuries in combat.

So says the tales man spin, but who was he really, this Half Aesir? Sit down and listen, all will be revealed.

I like Norse myths and spin another build around the topic.
I never make dexers that aren't rogue's, this is an attempt at creating an rp build that both has Epic dodge and DR plus good hp's.

Strengths of this build is the Epic dodge combined with DR and nice amount of hp's. He can wear medium armour and board early in his career if necessary, which should make living easier. You have UMD and trap setting to help dish damage, your trap setting are high enough to let you set Deadly traps in combat.

Ab is a bit low, but doable, especially when you catch them flat-footed. Another weakness, and this is THE weakness, is his will save. It is so low I didn't even bother to help it, you really need to get some defense for it.
That's it for now.

Well done, an epic dodger with DR and a nice amount of HPs. Not someone to make angry at you or to meet in some dark alley... or dark northern forest (especially if the darkness is not natural ).
Pity you didn't squeeze in TR, it's so nice to cut them down and drain their strength while they are all covering in the corner scared like babies

Kudos

Cheers,
Kail

that is one smart barbarian!
nicely done. this is a tough one. the HP coupled with DR and the powerful damage output due to SA and BR is quite the devastating combo.
i like the Norse intro. gives a good feel for the build. keep up the good work.

-c Heja Norge! Nice work, I like it. However, like Kail says, Terrifying Rage would be a nice feature

~ Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss Thanks for good feedback, but about terrifying Rage.....

*bangs head to wall again*

I thought you needed high STR for all the Rage feats, but you don't.....

Then it should definitly be in there. I saw in a post a guy that claimed he had to much skillpoints, but again I come short. I always do. I need intimidate. Got to lower a few of the others, find out what is expendable, and then find a feat for it.

Thanks guys. Still I have much to learn..... A very good all jack of all trades. I think that this guy would be a blast to play.

Thanks for the build! Another one for the Epic Viking Mythology guild. Well done. And a rare one, too, as you noted the only other build around with these classes, and that one looks completely different from this one.

And if you can fit TR in there, say at LvL 24, that would be icing on the cake. Rich delicious icing.

Ariel, Ookla, RIDE! Thanks fella's. I have a dare for you, Oh Dwarflord, King of Loki's followers. I dare you to build the iconic assassin.

I know the Deathstroke Click Here , But that has three classes.

Two or three I don't see what the difference is as far as saying it would be pure. 30 levels of PrC is 30 levels of PrC, no matter which way you split it. That, and I would hesitate to call anything iconic, as that term in my mind makes the thing described transcend all others that came before, or those to come after.

But this is OT and not permissable to speak lest Griphook ban me from the guild.
