Fighter with High saves, and evaison? help to progress

[fatalshadow]

Hello fellow DDO'ers I was hoping to make myself a dps fighter with high saves and evaison. Is it too much? I dont know so i came to the experts of the forums . So down to the good stuff. So i want a fighter that can kill, and resist spells thrown at him, and evade those unwanted fire balls and traps.

This is what ive got so far.

2 rogue/ 3 fighter (drow)

Starting stats:

Str: 19 (23 current)
dex : 17 (22 current)
con:10
int:10
wis:8
cha:10

I know it doesnt look like much, but with the proper gear i can get my stats up pretty good. And I have a +4 cha item waiting for me. I was thinking of getting atleast 2 levels of pally in there to get devine grace which would get my saves up signifcantly.

Current feats are :

dodge
TWF
toughness
WF piercing

Now thats what ive got laid out right now. Ive liked it so far, but i want a little more out of this build and the saves boost would be a big upgrade. If its at all plausable please give some input and help a fellow player out. Constructive input please!

So basically you're looking for a 10F/2P/2Ro or 9/3/3 build, right?

Yea that would be the goal

You may find you want more CON at Higher levels.

I have a 7Fig/3Pal/4Rog (4 rog to fix skill pt mix up) that I started with 11 Con. He is a heaps of fun to play but I wish I had more hp. I prop hp up with Stone skins scrolls.

I agree with the con issue, but ive got toughness, and at lvl 5 ive got 74 hp, thats not horrible.

Does anyone know at which lvls i should take the 2 pally?

Immediately. Also, a 3rd level of Paladin would get you +1 Ref/Will saves, +1 All saves via Aura Enhancement, +1 AC via Aura Enhancement, and Fear/Disease Immunity. Uhm...possibly stupid question here...you are Lawful Good, right?

At level 5 your hp will be fine. I didn't really notice a problem with hp til I started doing high level content, and I have toughness as well (with fighter toughness III). It's not a massive problem but if I built him again he would have more con.

Thats not a "high saves" fighter, at least not until you add the paladin levels. hehe.

It looks like you have a good Reflex-Evasion Fighter. Thats a good concept I think. Evasion is uber if you have enough Reflex. Its useless if you don't.

Its ok to have some weaknesses as a fighter. Thats why you team up with people that can give you Greater Heroism and Recitation.

10 CON is at risk of not having enough hit points. You would be kinda a squishy fighter, especially if you were not to take Toughness feat. You can buy yourself 20 orchard Tapestries early on (for 400k!) and hope that helps but elves are puny enough compared to the dwarven folk! I have a starting CON 12 elf that seems to be doing OK with the Toughness feat, and no Toughness helm, yet... She will have Evasion and can Displacement herself 4 times a rest though, which is almost as good as having twice as many Hit Points, for a few battles.
