Request a Build - Get a Build

**Firepigs** · 05-29-2013, 01:09 PM

Wondering if someone can help me find a build that I now get a error 404 when I click on the book mark. It was Monk The Metaru 2.0 Dark Path half orc DPS monk. I started the build and they changed the forums. I have tried searching the key words but cannot find it. Thanks in advance

Yeah, I had to fix all the links in my sig thanks to the forum switch.

Should work now, though.

When it comes to THF divines, I say go pally if you want to focus on melee / tanking, cleric (or FvS) if you want to focus on spellcasting. The Battle Clerics thread in my sig is outdated, but it gives you some idea of what you can do with a melee BC. Junts's pally guide is an oldie-but-goodie thread.

Why that combo? I understand a rogue splash for Evasion, but wiz & arty are largely redundant.

Hi there!
I have returned to DDO after a very long absence. I see the forums have been changed, how odd. I feel like an entirely new player all over again! One thing is for certain, I still have very little idea on how to make my own builds - it all seems very complicated to me and I'm scared to get it wrong. :/ I've always just followed advice from these brilliant builds on the forums. I've decided to start from scratch and I'd like to request the following:

For my husband:
1.) High DPS Rogue build, preferably not a halfling, able to deal with traps and whatnot, not afraid to splash, 32 pt build

For me:
2.) A good support class (bard? paladin?) build that will complement the rogue well, useful to parties later on, preferably Human, Helf or Elf, don't mind not having much dps, also not afraid to splash, 28 pt build

Any help towards either of these are much, much appreciated! Thank you in advance!

He wanted to have a greater access to wands without having to rely on UMD.

Keep in mind I am VIP, have access to every race and class. This is going to be thee toons 4th life (prev life being ftr, bard, fvs).

My request should follow the lines of 12rog/6monk/2ftr. The 2 ftr is changeable just their because i think the 2 extra feats will be better than a lvl 7 monk or 14 rog. 12 rog gives me assasinate and 6 monk gives me ninja The idea is to amplify his hide/move silently doing backstab damage and assasinate. Preferably a decent stun dc. and keep his trapmonkey skills as high as possible. I am having trouble determining the race (im leaning towards human) and his starting stats. Any input would be awesome. I understand this probably isnt the best build but im here for the fun of the game.

13 rogue/6 monk/1 ftr or 13 rogue/7 monk!!! Never downplay the rogue bonus feats. 10th and 13th (as well as 16th and 19th) grant you a feat from a very specialized feat list. This includes Improved evasion as well as Slippery mind(one of my favorites) which gives you a second chance to save against most of the wills your char will roll. 7th Monk will give you an additional 10% healing amp and a silly little self heal that might save you a few pots, If you are going for a build like this you will want the following feats: Power Attack, Cleave, Great Cleave, Improved critical: Bludgeon. These will make your life much easier while leveling and also happen to be the prerequisites for a nifty little epic feat called Overwhelming critical (if you plan on staying at cap for a bit). Keep in mind this requires a 23 STR (not hard to obtain with a starting of 16)

Do you two plan mostly to duo or group / PUG? If you'll be duoing, I would recommend a pally tank; rogues are squishy and rely on sneak atks for their DPS, so having a sturdy melee toon to soak up the aggro will help. Bring along a cleric hireling to provide heals. Otherwise I might suggest a battlecleric or CC-focused bard.

Hi unbongwah, thanks for the response.

We will be mostly duoing.
From my searching I have found a build that Therigar posted: Rogue Build for my husband and this Paladin Evasion Build by EllisDee37 for me. A CC-focused Bard sounds interesting, I have not come across a build for that though.

This duo sounds good, I think?

However, I do not know if Therigar's build can be done with 32 pts.

When choosing a pure rogue Assassin build, the first thing you need to decide is whether your primary stat will be DEX, STR, or INT. I run down the pros & cons here. After that, it's just a matter of shopping around for the right build to fit your resources & preferences.

Pally 18 / rog 2 is a pretty solid combo for a first-timer, although I wouldn't try tanking with it. However, I was thinking of a classic S&B pally tank:

The idea is to have a highly survivable aggro magnet to keep the mobs' attention off your husband's rogue while he's busy backstabbing them that still puts out a fair bit of DPS on her own. The main drawback to duoing a pair of melees is that you miss out on the CC and burst DPS options that a caster can bring, esp. at higher levels.

Caveat: most DDO vets will tell you a dedicated tank isn't "necessary" outside of a few raid bosses. And that's true...once you're a DDO vet who knows how to solo blind-folded.

But personally I think they underestimate the usefulness of a newbie-friendly tank build to someone who's still learning.

Wow, thank you so much - this is most helpful.

Now time to sniff around the forums more for a 32pt str-based rogue build that's not a halfling or horc!

**Todkaninchen** · 05-31-2013, 05:26 PM

I just unlocked Favored Soul and I'm considering buying another slot to try it out (as well as potentially TRing one of my alts to FVS later).

I have Arti and the f2p classes and I generally only play halflings.

I have never played a cleric (so spell choices are something that would have to be suggested) and I have historically played mainly trappers (rogue mechanics, artificer, assassin) and enchanters (spell singer bard and enchanter and/or necro archmages). So, healing for me has been "If I remember", but I understand how spell DC's and spell penetration works.

So, I would like a FVS build based on halfling using a 32 pt build (and suggestions for a 2nd life TR'd build, past life immaterial). The primary goal would be a DPS caster with survivability and healing secondary. Assume access to at least +2 tomes for half the stats (for planning purposes).

I also don't have epic destinies yet, so I only need enough end-game considerations to get to 20, run epics for tokens, and TR. If the 32pt build works, I'll consider TRing one of my alts into FVS as well using a similar build.

As far as critical equipment: If it's something you can typically get first life or is a BtCoE item able to be farmed include it. I have many packs including Gianthold, Vale, Demon Sands, etc. So, don't assume a Torc and don't immediately assume a Con-Op GS item, but the GS could be a possibility for the TR variant.

Summary:
* Halfling
* 32pt with suggestions for a 34pt allocation (not depending on past life).
* Assume 3 x +2 tomes available
* Favored Soul base pure is okay, if multiclassed, only arti and the f2p classes considered.
* Priority DPS casting (necro? evocation?)
* Secondary survivability and healing.
* Spell suggestions desired.

Good luck and see if you can come up with a winner for me...

*grin*

I've decided to start from scratch and I'd like to request the following:

For my husband:
1.) High DPS Rogue build, preferably not a halfling, able to deal with traps and whatnot, not afraid to splash, 32 pt build

For me:
2.) A good support class (bard? paladin?) build that will complement the rogue well, useful to parties later on, preferably Human, Helf or Elf, don't mind not having much dps, also not afraid to splash, 28 pt build

Any help towards either of these are much, much appreciated! Thank you in advance!

If you are planning on going duo then you might consider going tank. If you take the agro / threat then your rogue will get his or her sneak attack (or at least flanking bonus). If you go caster the rogue will have to tank for you often and not get a sneak attack. (Unless he/you uses bluff, paralyze, blind etc). (Or you take a melee hire).

Paladin / Rogue make a good duo.

Well. Why not just take said halfling/Horc and make it into a human, adjusting starting stats as needed? (or, just take Horc stats, start with 2 less str) and you have a feat to play with. Which is always nice.

This includes Improved evasion as well as Slippery mind(one of my favorites) which gives you a second chance to save against most of the wills your char will roll. 7th Monk will give you an additional 10% healing amp and a silly little self heal that might save you a few pots, If you are going for a build like this you will want the following feats: Power Attack, Cleave, Great Cleave, Improved critical: Bludgeon. These will make your life much easier while leveling and also happen to be the prerequisites for a nifty little epic feat called Overwhelming critical (if you plan on staying at cap for a bit). Keep in mind this requires a 23 STR (not hard to obtain with a starting of 16)

So I am doing the 13/7 combo and so far I am loving him. Fastest I have ever leveled a toon actually.

So my only requirements are HIGH AC, decent and above HP, maybe intim if it fits, and at least 6 levels of pally because I need the past life gone for completion lol I hate em. Any suggestions? I am thinking 6 Pally/2Rog/12Ftr

Looking for a strong, self-sufficient solo character. I currently have a ranger with rogue splash. He is good (to me) but I want to try something else.

I have access to 32pt builds, all races, no access (yet) to favoured soul or artificer, no raid level gear (meaning no sugar daddy twinking). I play mostly on Hard, normal if the quest is more difficult. I can get access to some tomes if really needed.

I was thinking of a cleric/fighter/rogue 18/1/1. Primarily a cleric but can handle traps and the use most weapons. I was thinking dwarf with greataxe but am open to any race/weapon combo.

Thinking rogue at 1, then cleric, then fighter, then cleric rest of way. Not sure if this is a good way to go or if it even matters after level 1.

Need advice on this if its workable, how should I assign beginning stats, and feats.

Thanks!

My main is a 12 cleric/ 6ranger/ 2 monk ranger for tempest and monk for handwraps/ac/evasion. His sustainability is rather well on normal or hard solo'ing seeing as he has the heal spell. Stunning fist also helps, since he is halfling and I took the halfing guile sneak attack enhancements.

**palmate** · 06-13-2013, 04:16 PM

I'm looking for a Tank build that has the possibility of decent DPS, the ability to solo is also high on the list.

Looking for Bastard Sword and Tower shield. Currently using Nightmare The Fallen moon, Human.

I have crunched +4 Superior Tome, and I'm wiling to grind out gear as necessary.

thanks in advance!

I highly recommend this build. It was a lot of fun, and very survivable.

**Sebastrd** · 06-13-2013, 08:25 PM

EDIT: Initially I was pretty sure I wanted to go at least 18 ranger to get slaying arrows at 18, since I plan to TR this guy as soon as I hit 20. I then realized that no matter the splash, I won't get slaying arrows until level 20 (when I finally take 18 ranger), so it doesn't matter in the slightest. Also, since rangers get evasion at level 9, as Sogrin pointed out, I can use arti for rogue skills if I want. Either way, it really opens up the build. I'm not really interested in any of the Uzi or Monkcher builds, but while ranger just lends itself naturally to AA, bard might also be a good fit.

Request -

I'm planning to run through a quick ranger (or bard, or druid) life soon, and I'd love some unique ideas for a build.

Wants

Arcane Archer with slaying arrows (preferably, but not necessarily, ranger)
Full trap skills and evasion (probably 2 rogue)
TWF w/rapiers for melee
Excellent AC
SELF-SUFFICIENT

I've got full +3 tomes (+4 Wis), Rog/Pal/Brb/Wiz/Mnk/Sor/Ftr/Art past lives, and lots of handwraps, rapiers, staves, greataxes.

It seems like a pretty straightforward 18 ranger/2 rogue build would fit the bill, but I'm curious to see what others come up with.
