Sir Critsalot 32pt

[DethTrip]

*Edit* The information below is incorrect because the character generator is misleading. This build is therefore invalid.

I wanted to see if an Elf using scimitars would make a nice crit machine. This is what I came up with. Obviously one could go WF and only lose +1 att and +2 damage, as far as damage goes.

This build will crit on a 13-20 and do X4 damage while raged as a frenzied beserker III. Power attack + barb PA III add another +8 damage. Racial bonus enhancements of +1 attack and +2 damage with the scimitar are nice. Also Damage boost IV giving another +5 damage. Then add another +4 str from Power Rage IV for +2 attack and +2 damage. Base str with just a +2 tome is 27 then add +6 str and +1 exceptional str (TOD ring, not mandatory but a for instance) and a base of 34 str (+12 attack and damage) can be had. As you can see, damage output will be nice and crits will be often.

Wish I could have fit OTWF in but with the high str and good gear the -8 from the enhanced PA shouldn't be a problem.

Hps are good. Plenty high enough.

Not a gear dependent build. What I mean by that is just your normal, regular gear you acquire through leveling will still produce good dps. Obviously better gear will make it better.

AC, what's AC good for again? =-)

What race would you go? Would you rather just use khopeshes for a 15-20 crit range and the +1 multi instead of the +2 crit range?

Friendly suggestions, thoughts, constructive criticism, corrections (I'm sure I made some mistakes so help me out!) are most welcome.

[khaldan]

You can take crit rage and FB at the same time?

[Cam_Neely]

Looks fun, but I would drop Jump some for higher balance. When raged (which you will be most of the time) you will be far beyond the 40 cap, so alot of those skill points wont be useful.

[Visty]

unless you already have a barb with critrage, this build wont happen

you cant take it anymore

[Bunker]

+1 for the crafty name, but unless you were grandfathered in with Crit rage, you won't have it.

[supp3nhuhn]

The only place you can get crit rage now is in the planer, you can't take it in the game anymore.

[DethTrip]

I am using the latest chr generator. You're telling me that the generator is wrong and you can no longer take critrage?

[Kolvarg]

I am using the latest chr generator. You're telling me that the generator is wrong and you can no longer take critrage?

Yes that is correct. It is in the Character Planner, but you cannot pick it in game. That is for the characters that have it from before, they can still be modified in the planner.

[Consumer]

The planner is wrong and FB gives a *3 crit multiplier on a 19-20, not every crit.

[DethTrip]

Man, this build looked good!!! Till I find the character generator is misleading. Oh well, guess I'll work on something else......

[unbongwah]

On the plus side, you no longer have to ask yourself, "Why doesn't every barb build take Critical Rage? It's so awesome!!" :p
