Hello!


After scouting the forums through serveral times with no luck I've decided to simply give up and request it.

A friend of mine told me last night that there was a sorceror build out there stronger than made so far. He gave me the classes for it but even though I've tried I simply can't figure it all out as to how many of each class etc.. The build combo will have immune to crits which is amazingly good on a dev crit enabled server.. the AC won't be low either given the classes. The build itself is very overseen however and I don't know about DC's etc.

Now what I need is basically just a walkthrough on how to build it and perhaps a comment as to how good the build really is? is it worth it? if not which sorceror / wizard build would be a better bet? Well, I wouldn't build a Sorcerer/PM/RDD to make an "uber spellcaster". If you feel you need the immunity to crits, just go Sorcerer 29/PM 10/X 1, X being either Monk, Paladin or HS. Monk gives Evasion, WIS AC bonus and Tumble plus Discipline. Paladin boosts your saves and has Discipline. HS has Tumble and Discipline plus you get an extra Great CHA. You like "high" AC casters, get the AutoStill feats. A Sorcerer 29/PM 10/HS 1 can have a DC 43 Wail and DC 41 FoD with 60+ AC in a +5 environment. Been there, done that

Yeah, I had AutoStill. Exactly 60 AC with +5 Plate, Large Shield, Boots, Ring and Amulet plus DEX buff and Haste.

37. Sorcerer27

40. HS1 * Great Charisma VI

Note that you can boost your Fortitude (+4) and Will (+2) saves by going Sor 10/PM 10 pre-epic, but it's a lot harder to play. That leveling guide looks fine but I'm not sure it's right, this build's old and that level sequence may be a mere sketch which does or doesn't work; try it in offline first. I always make a sketch like this before making a build and correct errors while leveling it in the game, but I always forget/can't bother to fix the errors in the file if I'm not planning to post (in the near future).

Cheers

EDIT: whoops, Gnomes obviously can't use Tower Shields I just type it automatically
