Looking for Quick and efficient 1-20 TR Build

[Wasaby98]

Hey looking for a quick and efficient 1-20 build for my 5th life. I seem to be having trouble finding builds that arent late bloomers with epic levels in mind i would prefer something mainly cleric or cleric with a splash so that i dont have to wait until higher levels for the build to take shape if anyone has any ideas Please let me know!

There is a 7 Arti, 6 Rogue, 7 whatever except Druid and Warlock I guess that you can level over and over to 20 really quickly, pew pewing your way to 20 super, super easily as you use the same gear every time, only the utilities change.

I used a 9 druid /2 monk / 9 pastlife (Druid always wins the tie except against Warlock) for several life's. It was quite easy and fun leveling.
Google past+lifen+mo. All one word.

I also used my own Swashblade 7 Bard/ 4 fighter / 9 pastlife for most of my caster life's. Both are melee focused early bloomers with good self heals and CC.

Of the two I prefer the Swashblade, but the Druid added more diversity.

But really - these days just about any Self Heal Melee build with a little CC can faceroll Heroic content and level pretty quickly with a BB Streak and XP pots.


Good Luck

IMHO, efficient HTRing is about picking a template which maximizes leveling speed while minimizing how much re-gearing you need to do for each life. The really fast vets can churn out a heroic PL in less time than it takes for the HTR timer cooldown to expire. Repeater Mechanics are a good option: high ranged DPS plus trap skills for the extra XP. Rog 6 / rgr or arty 6 / <HTR class> 8 works well; here's one example (https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/464129-Request-heavy-repeater-template?p=5668382&viewfull=1#post5668382). Rog 6 / rgr 6 also works if you prefer a TWF+Manyshot template. A Swashbuckler or druid wolf template would also work; I think I would prefer SB since its DPS bonuses are more front-loaded - farm a TAB (http://ddowiki.com/page/Tiefling_Assassin's_Blade) and you're basically golden for lvls 4-12 or thereabouts. [EDIT: the downside to both are the alignment restrictions; you can't use either for a pally PL nor a Swashie for a monk PL.]

Note I said "efficient;" that doesn't necessarily mean "most fun," particularly if you get as bored as I do playing the same way on every char or TR life. :rolleyes:

Battlecleric with whatever good weapons for heroic levels you have works quite well. Mix cleric with figthter and/or paladin as you prefer, most splashes work.
