False Hope

[Braegan]

Hey folks, going to post my current version of False in this post with some thoughts on where I could go from here in the next post, hopefully with some feedback.

For fun referencing previous versions of the build. Please note changes to the game have not been reflected in older versions of the character.

DC's

Evocation - 66
Necromancy - 55
Conjuration - 50

That's with current set up and twists. Definitely room to move and shuffle as needed. I will do the breakdown for the DC's later.

[Braegan]

Bump with lots of details added to current build.

The good:

Pretty solid DCs
Blasting ability for those that exceed my DCs or for fun
Decent Saves

The bad:

No strong melee fallback (personal preference, would like one)
Not as strong Heal options as other versions. Only heal spells taken are Heal and Mass Heal. That the MCM Sla and Divine Wrath are all I usually run with. Small groups and self sufficient groups it's fine, but by no means can function as a heal bot.

Anyway, that's where I am at coming back. Looking to improve the build as I can, feedback is of course welcome.

To be honest dude I don't think you can go wrong with the U19 version which I am still happily using :) with the changes to heavy armor and stuff it's just going to get better, add in on top of that Thunder Forged weapons and armor and it's going to be epic! The main bummer is the nerf to Blitz so I'm wondering if another ED would be best such as Divine Crusader or something?

You're probably right, but I guess I am a tinkerer at heart, always trying to tweak and improve a bit. :)

I'm trying to work on a hybrid melee/caster version. The problem always comes down to feats without wanting to deeply splash.

But yeah with Blitz change U19v or hybrid I am trying to build would both probably fair best in Divine Crusader.

Also my main is a Fvs Evoker (Sorgit) and looking at your build, I see a pretty similar fvs as the one I build in these years..the only little difference are:

- Race: I prefer human to sun elf, I lose 30 light power and nice DPS capstone, but gain 1 wis (I go full ****** with DC :-P), some healing amplification (nice when coupled with US capstone, that is unimpressive anymore btw...) and feat (can be spent to raise necro DC)

- as epic feast I have taken Great wisdom x3: that way I gain more DC all around for all the 3 DC schools I care about (primarly evo, then necro, ench and conj as left overs), a bonus is the +1.5 will saves (mostrly useless XD)

-A nice bonus i have found is to craft a TF weapon of your deaty and take the warpriest line for favored weapon, that way you can get +4 to enchantment bonus for that weapon, actually gaining +12 Universal spellpower

just my 2 cents

Ciao (and sorry for my english :P)

Hey Sorgit,

Thanks for the feedback!

The human vs sun elf I keep going back and forth on.

Human gets you +1 Wis, +1 Feat as big bonuses, other small ones as well

Sun Elf gets you +3 Spell Pen and Sun Bolt Sla

While it is really nice to have two Sun Bolt Slas (race and ED) I will probably go back to human once I wrap up a couple more etrs.

I hear what you are saying about taking the Great Wis feats, I'll have to take another look and see what I can give up for it.

As far as TF weapon that's been on my radar. I just wanted to make sure what race I was going to stay as before making a longsword or a hammer, heh.

I know this version seems a little more boring compared to melee versions, but it's hard to go back to melee when you finally get your DCs up enough to melt EE mobs with a single cast. :)

[Panzermeyer]

Looks like a good build to me.

TF weapons would help you out a bit definitely.

Thanks for continuing the updates on False Hope.
