What are some good melee builds for end game reaper quests

[difasja]

I like to melee and would like to put together, a good melee build for a lvl 30 for reaper quests, I know it won't be as good as other approaches, but I'm just looking for some ideas. Please share. Thanks.

Just play inquisitive, it's the only this SSG wants you to play.

So long as you understand that "melee" + "Reaper" = "trouble", here's some (unsorted) suggestions:

Can't personally speak to any of them, just some links I've collected for "if/when" - good luck!

What an utterly useless, unhelpful, self-serving reply. :rolleyes:

Uhmm, lets see:

1) Strimtom's build - Lmao, dead.

2) Ganak's post is actually quite descent and still relevant.

3) Tilo's soundburst build? - actually, Tilo's ANY build. Tilo in general. Just mentioning Tilo. Tilo Tekilo :D:D:D

4) Symbiont's Monk build that's been nerfed 20 times over? You know why no one posts the latest Falconry Monk? because it's pretty self explanatory, very hard to go wrong with the build, unless you're Tilo. Also, 50MRR weaklings...

5) I don't see a laid out melee build here, just warlock. Saying 20 rogue TWF doesn't count as a build.

6) That's a tank build and not a melee build. Terribly outdated too.

Uhmm, lets see...
I ~did~ say "unsorted".

And compared to your contributions... yeah. :rolleyes:

Since you asked for a good melee reaper build, go ask the devs. While you're there, ask for their deffinition of a melee.

Don't hold your breath for an honnest and usefull awnser though

Here's my two melee builds...

The 18/2 TWF ranger/barbarian is rock solid....

The 12/7/1 THF Barbarian/Cleric/Fighter (maul build) is decent, but not as good as the TWF guy.

With end-game Sharn quest gear, ranger can solo R3-R4, barbarian can solo R1-R2. Both contribute fine in groups all the way to R10 (Although usually R5-R8 is what I run in most groups)
