The Forumator Build
A build for people who like to argue about builds.
Classes
12 Cleric/6 Paladin/6 Ranger/2 Monk
The cleric levels make this build completely Self-Sufficient™, the Paladin levels give it Godly Saves™, the Ranger levels ensure Maximum, Unsurpassed DPS™, and the Monk levels allow for Unbeatable AC™
Race
Halfling. For this build to be effective, it must use the Halfling race as that race is so ugly that no one would play it unless it gave ridiculous bonuses. The hump-backed looked, lopey running animation and the elongated head that resembles the aliens from Area 54 says “Min/Maxers Only!” ™. Logically, then, any build that is NOT based on a Halfling, is sub-par.
Hit Points
890 (1027 raged, 1151 double raged, 1214 highly perturbed)
Stats
Str: 40 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Dex: 36 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Con: 34 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Int: 2
Wis: 34 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Cha: 32 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Saves
Fort: Really, really high
Ref: Really, really high
Will: Really, really high
AC
10 base
21 dex
5 aura
5 barkskin
5 something else I can’t remember right now
3 Level 10 Infinite Shield Wand (I think they have those in Mod 9 for sale in the Rusty Nail)
3 Chattering Ring
4 Insight
1 Halfing
1 Haste
12 Blur wand (20% chance to miss has been proven to be the equivalent of 12 AC)
11 Wisdom
4 Bard Song
10 Something I’m sure I missed
-------
95 self buffed in DPS, UMD, or Listen mode
DPS
867.23 – That’s my own method for calculating DPS. If you can’t understand it, you need to get better at math. Trust me, it’s high.
Pros:
Has cool, comic-book-villain name
Self-sufficient™
Godly Saves™
Maximum, Unsurpassed DPS™
Unbeatable AC™
No-fail Scrolls™ - btw, that means ANY SCROLL™
Only needs 9 shroud items (about 50 large scales)
Only needs 11 rare raid items
Only needs 5, +4 Tomes
Cons:
Well…halfling…
Requires 4 Ring slots, 3 Necklace slots, and at least two Boot, Helm, and Bracer slots.
The whole four classes, 26 levels thing

Curious why you didn't take any Rogue for your DPS part...are you planning on the Tharne's bracers?
P.S. Thanks for doing the math, I hate doing it for stuff like that but I trust you completely :) Great build man! I dont know why nobody's thought of this one yet, simply amazing! :)

Hate to burst your bubble. But I've made this build (actually something quite similar, but not exact) and it doesn't pan out as expected at cap. Its a nice "concept," but in the real-world it has some problems:
1) there isn't enough equipment slots for everything--if you think through this carefully, I think you'll see this needs 5 ring slots--4 doesn't cut it;
2) the DPS is fine, but it is not what you expect. Your theoretical 867.23 works on paper, but not in the game. I tested it while soloing the Shroud--it is ACTUALLY only 853.12;
3) while effective, this isn't anywhere near as good as a 14 Cleric/4 Paladin/6 Ranger/2 Monk. Because it is lesser, it isn't worth considering. Perhaps you should delete this post so people aren't influenced into making a lesser build.

I want to make this but I have no tomes and only 28 point builds. Could you rework it for 28 point Elf? God, why do you people only ever think of the leet end gamers? we need starter builds too.
Also, could this work if I took 2 levels of Wizard instead of Monk? Will my Int be high enough at 2 for some CC spells?

07-17-2009, 03:14 PM
I cannot believe some of you have the nerve to criticize my build. I did NOT post it here for you to critique. I posted it here for you to agree that it’s the best build ever created. Period. I want lavish praise, not logical feedback.
But since you’re forcing my hand, I’ll reply to some of your inane comments.
Curious why you didn't take any Rogue for your DPS part
Because every idiot knows that rogues are only good for traps. If you want DPS, you play a ranger. Duh.
Jeez you noob! Where's your equipment layout?
All you need to know: dual Mineral II Khopeshes. Even a noob fresh off Korthos island knows that the Maximum, Unmatched DPS™ can only be achieved with dual khopeshes and a strength above 25. Duh.
I'm disappointed that you don't have Knight of the Chalice III though...
I didn’t list my enhancements because, save one, they are irrelevant. This build requires Cheat Death at level 20 and that’s it. Cheat Death is the Minos Legion Helm of enhancements. It’s the best there is so don’t even question it. Just get it and shut up.
1) there isn't enough equipment slots for everything--if you think through this carefully, I think you'll see this needs 5 ring slots--4 doesn't cut it;
2) the DPS is fine, but it is not what you expect. Your theoretical 867.23 works on paper, but not in the game. I tested it while soloing the Shroud--it is ACTUALLY only 853.12;
Two criticisms? Who the hell do you think you are? Fine, here are your responses:
1. 5 ring slots aren’t needed because you can swap. You would use your fixed ring slot for Listen mode (which you always want active) and the other 3 slots to swap rings around. Duh.
2. Your Shroud solo test is flawed due to the fact this build actually gets better when healing other people. With no one else to heal, your DPS dropped accordingly.
Sure, you're able to get to 95 AC -- but everyone knows you can't get your AC that high without gimping your damage output. Everyone knows that AC is useless in high-end content!
Uh…read much? Note that I didn’t say I had “Good” AC. I didn’t say I had “Great” AC. I didn’t say I had “Awesome” AC. I said, fairly clearly, that I had Unbeatable AC™. It doesn’t take a kalashtar to know that Unbeatable AC™ isn’t impacted by damage output. Duh.
Why isn't this build on gfunk's twf comparison thread (http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=174906) yet?

Simple. Because there IS no comparison. If gfunk did include it, it would look like this:
All others – suck
Forumator – Maximum, Unsurpassed ™
My science is just too tight for you noobs.
KingOfCheese
07-17-2009, 03:34 PM
2. Your Shroud solo test is flawed due to the fact this build actually gets better when healing other people. With no one else to heal, your DPS dropped accordingly.
My test is Valid (TM). You've made terrible, terrible assumptions in your comment. I did test this while healing! I had a summoned Earth elemental that I healed to test max DPS (do you really think I'm such a noob to not know about the impact of healing on DPS???!). The number I posted was WITH healing. But you wouldn't know that, would you. Because you are Mister Paper Build Maker with your Math (TM) and Theory (TM). Well I think I am the only one that has actually tested this build (or at least one very similar to it) and am the only one that can speak in Facts (TM). You've made a lesser build. You will need to learn to deal with it.

Don't even get me started here. Sure, you CAN swap ring slots. But that will kill your DPS. We all know it takes 1.2 seconds to swap a ring. Even if you took the feat QuickRingen (which your build leaves no room for!), you would only drop this to 0.6 seconds. That delay absolutely kills your DPS. You might as well roll a STR 6 barbarian.

Cheat Death is the Minos Legion Helm of enhancements.
Agreed. Both are ugly as sin and you don't want people to see you wearing them, hence both the "/showhelmet off" and "/showenhancements off" commands.
I note that you have "really, really high" saves. That's just not going to work...this thing may throw out dps, but for a Mod 9 endgame you will *need* "really, really, REALLY high" saves.
Just my 2 cp.
Edit: Also, you dress funny. So there.

Yes, i seem to remember a couple hour long guild meetings about this exact build and how it lacked Raid DPS. I also remember how sore my back was then next day from Carrying it through that hour long shroud! My back hurt so bad i had to make an emergency appointment with my chiropractor to see if he could help!

And of course thats the Quicken enhancemt linen is for! It adds a -.4 seconds from swapping iteams and it stacks with the quick change feat! this virtually eliminates all lag in a 50 mile radius of this character!

I don't want to beat a dead horse. I expect that everything you posted here is true. But the issue isn't whether this is a fine build. It is OK. But this isn't the best. A better build would have resulted in someone coming to your house and punching you in the face harder than what actually happened. Or faster. Or in this case, both.

On another note, I thought it ironic that this post exaggerating rogue skill levels made back in August would actually be too low to get epic traps. :D
Bah. I'm still rolling it, I'm just making a few changes. After last night's elite VoD, I'm moving some skills around:
Disable Device: 31 ranks + 19 Int bonus + 20 Item + 6 Boost + GH = 80. That should help ;)

The Forumator Build
A build for people who like to argue about builds.
Classes
12 Cleric/6 Paladin/6 Ranger/2 Monk
The cleric levels make this build completely Self-Sufficient™, the Paladin levels give it Godly Saves™, the Ranger levels ensure Maximum, Unsurpassed DPS™, and the Monk levels allow for Unbeatable AC™
Race
Halfling. For this build to be effective, it must use the Halfling race as that race is so ugly that no one would play it unless it gave ridiculous bonuses. The hump-backed looked, lopey running animation and the elongated head that resembles the aliens from Area 54 says “Min/Maxers Only!” ™. Logically, then, any build that is NOT based on a Halfling, is sub-par.
Hit Points
890 (1027 raged, 1151 double raged, 1214 highly perturbed)
Stats
Str: 40 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Dex: 36 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Con: 34 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Int: 2
Wis: 34 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Cha: 32 (18 + 4 Tome + 6 Item + a bunch of other stuff)
Saves
Fort: Really, really high
Ref: Really, really high
Will: Really, really high
AC
10 base
21 dex
5 aura
5 barkskin
5 something else I can’t remember right now
3 Level 10 Infinite Shield Wand (I think they have those in Mod 9 for sale in the Rusty Nail)
3 Chattering Ring
4 Insight
1 Halfing
1 Haste
12 Blur wand (20% chance to miss has been proven to be the equivalent of 12 AC)
11 Wisdom
4 Bard Song
10 Something I’m sure I missed
-------
95 self buffed in DPS, UMD, or Listen mode
DPS
867.23 – That’s my own method for calculating DPS. If you can’t understand it, you need to get better at math. Trust me, it’s high.
Pros:
Has cool, comic-book-villain name
Self-sufficient™
Godly Saves™
Maximum, Unsurpassed DPS™
Unbeatable AC™
No-fail Scrolls™ - btw, that means ANY SCROLL™
Only needs 9 shroud items (about 50 large scales)
Only needs 11 rare raid items
Only needs 5, +4 Tomes
Cons:
Well…halfling…
Requires 4 Ring slots, 3 Necklace slots, and at least two Boot, Helm, and Bracer slots.
The whole four classes, 26 levels thing
I tried making this build but I had problems:
You didn't tell me what skills to take at every level
This build doesn't tell me how to get off Korthos so leveling is very slow
I get 37 Dex - can somebody telll me where my math is wrong?

We like to call this race the Forgeling. Half Warforged/Half Halfing, tad redundant there. But we have a strict Don't Ask Don't tell policy regarding the creation of Forgelings. Trust us you really don't want to know HOW that happens.
Is a half-halfing a quarterling? Do four quarterlings make a dollarling? Is a dollarling build as good as a yenling or euroling, in todays economy?
Inquiring minds want to know!

It's funny people say these things ( I know it was a joke) but:
1. My character ALWAYS looks sexier than any of my party members.
2. Lopey running looks cool to me, like when they run into battle in 'NARUTO' and it looks sneaky which suits my rogue
3. I use a hairtsyle that covers that tremendously alien headshape (obviously I rolled a female toon :D)
bonuses: quick and light animations, high jumps! and awesome racial bonuses ofc haha

From: The Halfling Beauty Manual
"The unflattering halfling head shape can be toned down by avoiding elongating styles such as ponytails. Instead you should go with a hairdo that sports a wider look, such as the popular "Umber Hulk"-cut. And remember, positioning is paramount for any halfling girl that wants to impress: As soon as you enter a room, circle the monsters, your back to the wall, until you've reached a corner. Now stay with your back to that corner during the whole fight, and voil*! - you have avoided all possible "side-glancing" mishaps."

Pfft! My 2 barb/6 pally/6 bard/2 monk/10 blackguard half-orthon/half-eladrin could pwn the Forumator with 2 of his hands tied behind his wings and both his horns stapled to his head.
