Stats:
Strength: 17 Base + 5 levels +4 enhancements +7 item +6 stance, +3 exceptional +2 Yugoloth +2 ship buffs +2 tome = 48

Constitution: 16 base +2 tome +7 item +3 exceptional +2 yugoloth +6 stance +2 ship = 38

Armor Class: I haven't ran the numbers for this yet since I don't know what gear I'm shooting for yet. If anyone has numbers lying around for armor class I'd love to see it. I hear you need about 80-95 for it to be useful, and I can get mine up to about 55 or so on my paladin. Any help would be loved.

Saves: Also haven't done the checking.

Gear: Once again, haven't decided.

Rules: Please do not advise me to use +3/+4 tomes. I will use them if I find them, but because of their rarity, I cannot except to see any. My feat/enhancement picks are my biggest concerns. I would greatly appreciate someone giving me advice on these.

My hope here was to create a very sturdy hate/AC tank that could make normally difficult boss fights into easy skirmishes, while maintaining reasonable DPS, keep a high hitpoints score(I'm 4 off my desired 1000 T_T) and be able to avoid 90% of all reflex based damage through Evasion and a decent dexterity score.

Thanks in advance ladies and gents! I'm eagerly looking forward to your posts.

8/10

I had to rewrite the post... stupid log out issue.

Anyway, your HP would be less, coz "only" 280hp from con (not 380).

THF is better then TWF is you use bastard sword, plus it cost 1 less feats.
But of course fun>effectiveness, so if you like TWF style more, go with it.

If you want high AC, you want dodge and mobility too.

Also your combat DCs will be just moderate. 42-47 if maxed. I wouldt force it, except with improved sunder.

rate? F-

You forgot an important (if not the most) issue: Healing Amp!

With high healing amp you give your divines the ability to keep you up with scrolls, saving them alot of sp (and also can be healed by a bard/rog alone).
I once healed a horoth tank using 0 SP, keeping him up with scrolls and fvs capstone.

I see you took the human line, which is great! but what about the monk line? iirc, 2 monk will give u 10%, which is alot!
What about equip? getting all 10%, 20% and 30% healing amp equip will give you ~400hp with heal scroll, with silverflame pots they give you the ability to be a self sufficient tank w/o the depended of a healer.

3 Monk will do that for you.

Also, OP; if you plan on using TWF, why not try and get WIS a little higher, higher TWF AC. (Well, when not wearing armor.)

In this case, I'd consider taking 3 monk (or more). Yes, you lose the fighter last pre tier, but you'll get more amp and also a path (light will give you the ability to anti-stun yourself during horoth tanking).

btw, why didnt you go helf? cleric dilly would give ya self heal scrolls and raise scrolls. rog would give ya SA (wont do much while tanking, but would help for DPS when not tanking and to retake aggro).

280 hp? Ahhh yes, you're right. I did constitution*20/2 or something. So about 880-900 hp max. It's not a huge issue.

It's more about flavor; I know THFing is better for bastard swords, but I figure that if half the people in my party aren't max geared, then it won't matter much.

Dodge + Mobility are feats I completely forgot about. I normally don't even look at these feats, but since AC is useful on a tank, I suppose I should look at them. What of my feats would you trade these for?

I'm not worried about my combat DCs. Stun will end up being traded for either Toughness, or Dodge at level 20. Trip is more for knocking down the odd monster, but I might also trade this out for Mobility or something.

I have plenty of healing amp actually. Humans can be easily healed, and the only way I can get more is to splash more monk, which costs me 5% hp and +2 strength/constitution and 1 AC, or to be half-elf and take the monk dilly. Since half-elves only get tier 2 human healing amp, this is a net gain of only 10% healing amp, but I'd have to use 5 ability points to get 13 wisdom base. It's not worth doing imo, just for an extra 3d6 situational damage. With 20%(ToD ring), 30%(eClaw) and human line, I should heal just fine. Finger necklace + Dragon Touched for incredibly dangerous moments.

Because the benefit from wisdom is so minor mostly. It only gives me better AC and will saves, and then only while "centered." I have to wield monk weapons(Kama, staves, unarmed) and wear robes/outfits in order to be centered. The monk splash is taken only for evasion, balance as a class skill, skill points at level 1, and the extra feats.

I'd go with half-elf but I'd just end up with rogue dilletante, a few less skill points, 10% less healing amp and one less feat. It's not worth it in my opinion just for a bit more damage. I won't do cleric because of the expensive build point investment required. Besides, with my hp total and AC I should be able to rely on a hireling or player cleric to keep me vertical.

You still get Wisdom to AC bonus even when uncentered using Khopeshes, you will need to wear cloth, but Icy Raiment is a very viable option. This also removes the need for all those Maximum Dex Bonus enhancements n stuff.

Really now? That's new information to me! Can I still get the Wisdom bonus with a shield equipped?

And this is just bad advice.
10% healing amp over 1 ac, 2str, 2con, 5% more HP and a feat loss from 18th Fighter level.

If you are that desperate for healing amp roll a 18fighter2mnk half-elf with Monk dilly.

Sadly no, but seeing as with or without shield the AC will remain mostly the same, its all a matter of what you are facing, enough AC for Horoth ? TWF. not enough AC, grab a shield for the damage mitigation.

Edit;
The wisdom to AC makes the Exploiter build viable, using TWF with non-monk weapons and still getting that bonus.

The AC will remain the same? How exactly? Doesn't Levik's Defender provide +12 or so to AC? The wiki says, with a +4 dex modifier, I can pick up 9+4 = 13; I would need 36 dexterity to get the same result without a shield. Is that even possible on a non-dexterity based build?

15dex +6item +3tome +2ship +2exc +2yugo = 30

But what you are forgetting is wisdom. Wisdom also increases AC when you're not wearing a shield and armor.

Levik's will have a max dex bonus of, i think, 10 with all enhancements ? So the 30dex is not used for AC in this calculation.

Max wis would be;
15wis +6item +3tome +1enhancement +2ship +2yugo +1exc (slotted somewhere on gear) = 30 = +10AC from wisdom, seeing as you get 9 from the shield (without the dex), you gain 1 AC, then, using a shield wand, you could increase your AC by another 4, resulting in a gain of 5AC

Now if you take TWFDefense, it would increase your AC by another 1. Seeing as you are a fighter I'm pretty sure you could fit it in.

Edit;

Now it seems if you wear the best plate avaible for AC, Epic Cavalry Plate you would gain 16 Armor bonus. This is 8 over any bracers you could get. Lets use Epic Scorched Bracers.

8AC +4dodge (icy raiment) = 12
However, you would gain 6 AC due to TWF over S&B, resulting in 18 over 16, gaining 2 AC.

With this calculation I forgot to use the Max Dex bonus on the Plate, but seeing as it would be a negative for the AC with armor instead of Icy Raiment I'd say I made my point.

Now if you really want even more AC, consider picking up Longswords and Whirling Steel Strike, this would allow you to go into water stance, granting you another +2 AC, (+1 due to +2wis, and +1 dodge bonus stacking from stance)

However this is a bad idea, because your DPS will suffer :'D

It looks ok, plenty of good feedback. I'd up the wisdom by 2 points initially on the base stats for 10 base.

Drop a toughness feat and pick up Barb Past Life feat.

-2 hp but you gain +2 Intimated.

What Intim level are wanting to reach and what is going to be your weapon(s) of choice ?
EFang since you are taking Exotic Weapon Proficiency: Bastard Sword ?

Mind = blown by this post sir. Thank you for it. The only problem I see is starting with 15 wisdom. That's 8 points I'd have to take out of constitution, dexterity or strength, which would cause issues later on. The possibility of such high AC while maintaining Evasion makes me drool, but I can't see having a 15 base wisdom.

Edit: This toon has no UMD currently, and can only get up to 11.5 ranks of UMD. I don't know what UMD is required to use shield(5/10) wands, but I imagine it's about 25-30. Will I even be able to get up to that level of UMD without a higher charisma stat?

I forgot that Barbarian Past life gives +2 intimidate! Thank you much sir!

I don't have access to the eFang sadly. If I did I would have taken the various Sentinel dragonmarks. I plan on using a Holy <metal> of <enemy> bane for bosses and simply a pair of lit IIs for dps. If I pick up the Sentinels of Stormreach pack I will definitely add that as my weapon of choice.

As for the intimidate score I need, I'd be lying if I said I knew the number you needed to get a high success rate versus Horoth, Suulomades and other bosses. I'm assuming that the number I'm reaching, about 65-70 tops due to gear constraints, will be insufficient for them, but I might be able to at least gather all the trash mobs to pummel me instead of my squishy wizard and cleric buddies.

Charisma; 8base +2tome +6item +2ship = 18 Charisma / +4 Cha mod.
Level 10 Shield wands are UMD 38, so you would need 37 UMD for nofail.
11Ranks +4 modifier +3item +6charismaskills GS (you will probably want that for Intim anyway) +2good luck +4greater heroism = 30, so about a 60% chance, only bad thing is that using shield wands all the time can get quite expensive.
However with a little more gear, you could get +5 umd instead of +3item, and +3enhancement from epic big top.
Now, if you are using +7 charisma from epic helm of frost, and a +3 tome, it would increase by another 1. giving you a 90% chance. Or well over 100% for a level 5 shield wand.

The way I started with 15wis and 15 dex was;

Note; 32point build.
16str +levelups
15dex
14con (a bit low, but 20 (24) hp isnt all that much.
12int
15wis
08cha

Endgame should look a bit like this;

STR: 16base +5level +4enhancement +3tome +3profane (abishai set, which also gives a +3stacking AC) +6item +3exc +2ship +2yugo +6stance = 50
DEX: 15base +3tome +6item +2yugo +2exc +2ship = 30
CON: 14base +1enhancement +7item +3exc +3tome +2yugo +2ship +6stance = 38
INT: Not that important
WIS: 15base +1enhancement +6item +3tome +2ship +2yugo +3exc = 32
CHA: 08base +7item +3tome +2ship = 20

HP I calculated in planner;

Code:

180 Fighter 016 Monk 044 2 Toughness feats 030 Greater False Life 020 Toughness 010 Argo Favor 045 Shroud HP 060 Toughness Enhancements 280 Con 020 Barb Past life feat 020 Yugopot 20% Stance 870 Hitpoints

Forgetting things like Large Guild Slots (would result in 24more HP)
And +10% from Artificer (seeing as you will not always have one in the group)
Total would then be 983. Over 1k if you eat one of those Infernal Power cookies.

Intimidate could be;

Code:

023 Ranks 020 Intimidate on Epic Brawn's 005 Enhancement on Epic Gloves of the Claw 004 Enhancements 006 Stalwart 006 Shroud Charisma Skills 004 Greater Heroism 002 Good Luck 004 Deneith Intimi (If you take dragonmark feats) 002 Barbarian PL 002 Fighter PL 002 Bullheaded 003 SF: Intim 002 Dragonmark 001 Tenacious Badger 005 Charisma mod 091 Intimidate, though this is with all the gear available, it's just an example for how high it can get.

Note; This is a LOT of effort to get all the gear listed, but its more or less something to strive for.

The drawback to going the monk-splash pajama route to AC is you lose the WIS bonus when using a shield. And these days, using a shield on an SD or DoS tank is as much (if not more) about the dmg mitigation from the shield feats plus the threat bonus in stance. Although if you're willing to grind out two sets of gear, you could have your pajama set for when you're TWFing and another set of "real" armor for when you're S&B tanking.

Note if S&B I would use Lorrik's Champion, or even Epic Kundarak Warding Shield, seeing these shields don't have a Max Dex bonus.

Gear would be:

Epic Raven's Sight
Epic Helm of Frost with Greater False Life
Epic Grim's Bracelet with Heavy Fortification
Epic Gem of Many Facets with +1exc STR
Epic Envenomed Cloak with Toughness
Min2 HP Belt
Cinder's Band with +2 Dexterity
Epic Gloves of the Claw
Epic Boots of Corrosion with Good Luck +2 and +6 WIS
Epic Ring of the Baphomet with +6DEX
Epic Jidz-Tet'ka with +1exc CHA and Blindness Immunity
Icy Raiment - (And for epics I would suggest a DT with HAmp/HAmp/Disintigration Guard)

Weapons obviously Epic Chimera's Fang slotted with Good
Epic Kundarak Warding Shield or Lorrik's Champion
Other hand would probably be a +5 Silver Holy Burst Bastard Sword of GLOB, when TWF

Stats would be:
STR: 16 +5level +7item +4enhancement +2tome +3profane +6stance +2yugo +2ship +3exc = 50
DEX: 15 +6item +3tome +2yugo +2exc +2ship = 30

Typically enough for hard LoB, only hit on a 1 (This is with the 89AC) Turn on Power Attack on Normal and Epic.

Code:

HAmp 100% Base 020% Human Healing Amplification 010% Ship buff 030% Epic Gloves of the Claw 172% Healing Amplification 010% Dragontouched 020% Dragontouched 227% Healing Amplification with Dragontouched

Shield would be used in cases where AC is not high enough, if so, swap out Icy Raiment for the Dragontouched. Should make your healing amp higher and thus easier to scroll heal.
