Intimidate/tumble"????

Hi again forum,

With my current paper write down from my other thread:
http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=282020

I am thinking of ways to increase its usefulness with Intimidate and Tumble for increased ac.

Now i might spare an few skills here and there down tuning it to hit an very specific number in order to do an decently good enough job(see build pg1).

Hitting the spicific skill numbers with search and disable. and downtuning UMD to an acceptable number in order to use the scrolls, and items i want to use.

Now my questions are:
*how would this work?
never had an intimidate tank before, how high should intimidate be?
and how would it work with tumble?

*will the skills intimidate and tumble overlap? / cool-down wise?
can they even be used together to maintain aggro?
which will be better? flips or rolls?

* any thoughts how to work it into the build without losing any ac.
lowering skills current to acceptable level and putting them into intim.

* will this actually work? heard something about losing aggro with intim because its long cooldown?

Any advice is welcome.

The most intimidate you need is 81 for epic lialat. That said, 70 will get every mob except elite hound and epic lialat and 60ish will get 99% of trash mobs. I'm not sure what you mean by working with tumble. Can you tumble while intim is on cooldown? - yes.

*will the skills intimidate and tumble overlap? / cool-down wise?

Tumble won't help you maintain aggro, it will help you avoid damage. Flips or rolls don't matter, one is just a farther tumble (higher score) than the other.

Don't really have time, sry

* will this actually work? heard something about losing aggro with intim because its long cooldown?

Except on certain mobs with random aggro, intim is an aggro lock for 6 seconds, every 6 seconds. Some mobs cannot be intimed like animals and slimes

Any advice is welcome.
