Vampire Ninja Tempest with dual longswords (result and thank you)

[SouCarioca]

So last year I came up with a completely crackpot idea of a Vampire Tempest with dual longswords. The Ninja was a result of help. I asked here and @unbongwah came through in flying colors (https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/515202-Vampire-Ninja-Tempest?p=6326996&viewfull=1#post6326996) for me with a build that required a bit of monk but was utterly centered and became a truly original flavor build. I grinded Eveningstar for a couple of Oathblades to complete the picture and am sharing the result with a few screenshots and a 30-second video of it beating up an airship dummy.

This post is to not only thank those who helped a noob fulfill a bizarre concept, but also to show the effort by the veterans was not in vain, and what it ended up like. Though it is covered up, the AC is 80.

4 wizard PM 6 Ranger Tempest 10 death domain cleric of the sovereign host would have been my personal choice...
But you wanted ninja not fully armored/self healing capable so...
(It's easier to get max negative power on a divine class and they have better spells for negative healing just need to always remember to target self with the inflict)
4 wizard PM 4 paladin KOTC 12 Favored Soul WarPriest might have been better with Greatsword added as a favored weapon using knight of the Chalice enhancements if you wanted to try a Samurai version...
I mean Vampires are about Charisma.
Feydark just for Charisma melee bonuses if nothing else.
Self healing is an important factor to undead otherwise they need all sorts of healing amplification sources especially in Reaper...more so as a melee build.

Bear in mind this was in June 2020, so Fey was not a factor. Also my core idea was a Vampire touting dual longswords. The classes that went into this concept were not important to me. I knew I needed help, so wanted to explain the idea without tying down anyone helping with pointless demands/conditions.

The self-healing was a problem. You can get regular boosts of HP, but the irony is that unless you are questing alone, ready to regularly stop to replenish, it turns out to be quite insufficient in groups on the move. Even without mad zerging. As a result, the core squishiness was a problem. I could make him 50% untouchable, but it was the other 50% that were the issue. Clothing armor only, and all that. As to Ranger 6, well a key point of 12 levels was getting access to Deepwood Stalker core4.

I was just making suggestions for the future to try...
Not knocking anyone just how I personally would go about the same concept.
But it's not a stealthy stalker kind of take on the same idea...it's more warrior.

Ok, so Vampire Kurgan? I mean, I do have all the Negative Healing equipment possible, It was just a tad squishy, and maybe a bit light hitting. I'll take a look.

Once you get epic, Divine Crusader gives your favored weapon a lot of bite on top of the tier 5 enhancements from warpriest.
