Please help!! need a Splash?

[MrStinky]

Hello,

I have a lvl 12 pure str based twf khopesh prof drow (32) Rogue and I am about to lesser reincarnate but before i do i have a few questions. I am seriously thinking of taking a splash of monk for ac, or fighter, for the ac and martial weapons. so i end up with 19/1.

I was thinking when i reincarnate to max str, and go 16-17 int for traps, then use the feat that converts dex skills and reflex saves from intel modifier. and go 12 ish cha and wis. would this work?

What class would give me the best benefit to ac while still keeping my dps?

I hope this makes some sence.

Thanks in advance

Not enough build points to do all that. If you "Max Str" at 18 then take 16 int, take the mandatory 15 dex for twf, you will have 1 point left and will be stuck with 8 wis 10 cha, and most importantly, 6 con.

6 con on a melee char is a huge mistake.

What's your alignment? You can't change it with LR, so if it's not lawful, you can't go monk.

Bear in mind you need DEX 17 to remain a TWFer, so there's no real incentive to picking up Insightful Reflexes. Unless you're thinking of going sword&board - don't.

If you really want high INT on a STR-based TWF drow rogue (presumably Assassin?), I would make WIS & CHA dump stats. Base stats of, say, 16 / 16 / 12 / 16 / 8 / 10. You need at least a +1 DEX tome by lvl 9; shouldn't be too hard to find or buy (AH or DDO store). If you want to boost your CON and/or WIS then you should take it out of INT. [If you were going for a Finesse-based rogue, you could drop STR a little to boost your other stats; but since you're already a khopesh user, that would be pointless.]

here are my stats at lvl 12.

str 24 w/+4 gloves +1 tome
dex 24 w/+4 boots +2 tome
con 16 w/ +5 belt (I think) +1 tome
int 18 w/+4 hat +2 tome
wis 10 w/+4 ring
cha 16 w/+4 necklace +2 tome


As i mentioned before i have a less reincarnation to use so i thought i would add to str and take some dex out, but i really like my current reflex saves. I also like the umd from cha. So what would you do?

Should i just leave it alone? and stay pure till lvl 19?

thanks
