Pure Builds? Monk, Wizard (Pale Master?), Warlock?, Rogue? , Tank? Where they at?

[vizeroh]

I'm looking for some builds to either follow or to inspire me. I'm a returning player and plan to TR a few of my characters for fun but would like to see some builds on the classes I play constantly.

Pure Monk - Followed an old half-orc strength build for stunning fist/dc guide
Arty - Followed a guide for some good ranged dmg/spell dc, I forgot the name
Wizard (Pale Master) - didn't follow a guide, worked this one out myself, of course fixed few things along the way
Rogue? - Any good rogue builds out there for disarm/search/you know what I mean?
My Tank - Followed a very old school WF build called 'Hard Rock Candy Mountain', Any others out?
Warlock? - Just coming back to the game I am interested in seeing builds about this new class. :O

If anyone has some links I could look at I'd be grateful. Thanks.

Monks, arties, and wizs haven't really changed since U19, which is why you don't really see new builds for them. Be forewarned that they're all behind the DPS curve right now, so don't be surprised if you suffer from killcount envy vs other chars...

Rogues? Take your pick:

For S&B tanks, fighters are old news and behind the times; pure paladin is where it's at! See my Sacred Vanguards thread.

And Warlocks? Try not to trip over all the builds in the Warlock forum (https://www.ddo.com/forums/forumdisplay.php/298-Warlock). :p

Aha, the simple fact you know about my old tank build is kinda funny. :P

Just advice.

Wait for next year and Wizard Revamp.

Does this include Arty's? :O

Artys comes first wizard, Wizard will be the last revamp.


The intent of the order of Revamps is according to the survey (i disagree with survey )


I just play with Wizard, so i need wait for next year to come back.

I played a pure Artificer around the rogue revamp, and in my experience they're still a solid choice if you like repeaters, even compared to the new and improved rogue. The runearm is a nice addition, even if you just use it for the damage procs. Having access to the Harper tree helps A LOT, however, since you can get 1.5x int-to-damage that way (Know the Angles), along with int-to-hit, a bunch of ranged power, and other goodies.
I dare say 5 Rogue/15 Arti would have been even stronger, though.

I'm not sure how a caster Arti holds up in the current game, never tried to play one of those.

Check out Hassan's Assassin and Dubbell O'Seven in my sig for a pure rogue and arti. The rogue can handle trapping duties just fine, is a lethal killing machine, and very survivable. I've kept Dubbell updated and it is still a solid build. Can't help ya with monk, wiz, or tank builds. There's plenty of warlock builds in the warlock subforums.

If you're looking for pure builds, they are more likely to be found in their respective subforums rather than the custom builds forums.

FWIW, I play a first-life Drow version of Hassan's Assassin (20/1), and I've been very pleased with it.

I also play a first-life Halfing DEX/WIS Monk (20/8), based on the old Rockan Robin build, which with my own updates still works well. I might TR this one soon.
