I need a good level 30 blackguard build for a PW server that is capped at 30. I think probably the base class would be fighter or cleric, since they are usually the best for blackguards.

I am restricted by a few server rules, however: 1. No DEV crit. 2. You must have at least 5 levels in any class you multiclass to by level 30. 3. Level cap is set to 30, as I already mentioned. 4. You cannot multi to a class that has different alignment requirements. So, for example, I cannot take paladin levels because paladins are LG and BGs are evil.

Also, because of my character's subrace, he gets +4 constitution, but this done with a permanent magical strength buff rather than directly modifying his base ability scores. The world I am playing on is moderate to high magic, but not over the top. I have seen a few good BG builds, but I cannot figure out how to adapt them to these server rules. Can anyone here please help me?

Well, for level 30 you could also have bard 10 rdd 10 BG 10.

Level distribution pre epic should be bard 8 rdd 8 BG 4, this will get you 4 attacks/round, very good saving throws (bard high saves are reflex and will, rdd high saves are fortitude and will). Since you have a permanant +4 constitution, you should be able to pump charisma and strength a bit. There is a fair bit of synergy with the charisma use. Bard song, divine might, divine shield, stilled improved invisibility, 2 castings of bulls str (which stack) should make a quite effective dark knight. My only problem with the above is that the server I am playing on somewhat of an RP server, and the notion of a singing warrior of ultimate death and destruction is kind of ridiculous. Singing warrior of ultimate death and destruction with wings to be totally accurate.

Its a bit difficult to justify in roleplaying terms, even if you are trying to attempt a "blackguard of tiamat" or somesuch.

But, it is a strong level 30 blackguard build. Dexer monk10/SD18/BG12 has good saves, AB, epic dodge and selfconceal, 10 sneak attacks if dual weilding, hasted and flurrying, a great AC and lots of defensive powers and immunities from monk and SD levels. And monkspeed never gets old.

But he's looking for a level 30 build...

Steve Details, details.
A monk 10/BG 12/SD 8 might be nice then. You'd have to get a mage buddy or a concealment item to replace the missing selfconceal 5. Still a pretty tough banana with a high AC, epic dodge and a helpful set of meatshield summons for you to get your sneak on. The death knight is even nice enough to drop a dispel on your foe before closing in.
