Key Words [Ranger, TWF, Human, DPS, Evasion]
Objectives
The request was for a 32pt human or drow character with evasion, good dps, and strong AC. Gear was not an issue and he had lots of good longswords stocked up.
The original was a drow Paladin/Fighter/Rogue and had a batman build air about it. For the re-desing I went human and decided to take an exploiter (the batman of today) like approach mixing monk with ranger for a great un-armored AC.
Design
Having decided to go with robes and monk, I thought that whirling steel would be fun to work with. Ranger 12 would give me the extra feats and to go hog wild I’d throw in fighter 6 for kensei with longswords. This offers a huge number of feats to work with and a range of skill options... exactly what the name of the build calls for.
You get every feat you would care to have and then-some. At level 20 I had room for an indulgence and took whirlwind attack just for amusement. Every AC bump and DPS bump available to these class levels is in there. Geared up and buffed the AC should be quite impressive and the DPS output is near top notch. Saves are also really well rounded and HP is pretty decent, not to mention a bit of healing amplification.
For skills you have intimidate, enough for crowds but not really boss tanking, marginal UMD, standard balance, lots of jump, concentration, spot, and even decent hide/move. Its really well rounded.
And you get good ranged combat complete with everything you might want short of arcane archer. Its a hard build not to like.

Play
It takes a little while for the build to come together but the fun part is you always have something cool to look forward to as you level up, slowly building the complete package.
Variations
If you wanted a stronger self healer, you could drop tempest 2 and ranger 12 for monk 3 and fists of light. Then change a feat or two to grab empower healing or maximize and shift some AP into ranger devotion. 28pts can work fine for this build, dropping either str to 14 or taking down wisdom and dex a notch. Without tomes you will fall a bit short on skills but you can afford to loose some of the extra in stealth or spot.
