Hello, i've been toying with this idea for a good week now and i just can't seem to get it to work the way i want. So i thought i'd ask here...

Ok the idea is a Dex Based Stealth Detector, He needs to have really high listen OR spot, either works. Decently High MS/Hide and Disc, at least 60ab unbuffed (with +4 weapon and +12 Dex items) and around 75ac (i have easy access to +6 ac items of any type((with no other effects)),+12 dex items(as stated earlier), easy access to a haste item for most any slot, and easy access to the +1 ac ion stone).

Epic Dodge would be nice also, but not required.

Think anyone can pull it off? Because i'll be honest i haven't been able to This is all at level 40 of course... ohh yes and must be an elf for always on detect mode. Been toying with Ranger/Monk/Rogue's and the like to no avail.

PS- Can't be an archer... sorry

I was informed that it can be done with 59ab and 75ac with epic dodge, but the person simply told me that it could be done and then proceeded to ignore me when i asked how... so those should prolly be the goals shot for... hehe hope that helps any, i'm still totally stumped ;-P Ok, I was in a good mood, and a little bored today, so I did it for ya. Let me say first off that there will be some glaring weaknesses to the build, as well as some perks that you didn't ask for. You will have very low HPs with this char, and if your opponent is sneak immune, and you dont have elemental damage on your wep, you won't be damaging much. Well, without further ado, I present you with "The Detector"

There are still 2 ring slots and a helm slot open.

- Reflex Save of 41!

If you can get your hands on better equipment than I used, then thats even better for ya. Especially equipment that boosts your saves.

I tested this baby out in the Novice to Epic Char Builder, so I know it works. Hope this helps ya out.
