paly8/bard6... then?

[SCOTTRIFE69]

Working on a paly/bard build. the basis i have for it is great but its still lacking. Im going to go cha, con, dex, and shoot for a 12 wisdom. Im working off the drow for a race. I need to max cha (for spell points and difficulty/bonus smite damage). then con to stay standing upright. dex is going to need to be VERRY high for AC due to not being able to use anything better then light armor without the casting falure and for sneakyness. But, if im using high dex i wont be able to bring str high enough to use a 2 hander or even a shield/1 hander set up. So, i think i need to go TWF and weapon finesse to still be abel to hit. My design is for uber party buffs (songs/aura/buff spells), secondary healing (lay on hands/bard healing/UMD wands), CC (bard spells/fasinate), and burst melle damage (smite evil/turning and destroying undead).
Im thinking 1st lv feat weapon finesse (rapier (drow bonus to help)) then 3rd lv 2 wep fighting (duel rapiers (when i must march into ballte) and rapier/potency or devotion/power or wizadry) then 6th lv ??? (either extra SP feat or toughness for the paladin enhancement HP bonus) and from there i havent gotten to far though i know ITWF and GTWF will be needed to be stay useful in melle.
Any ideas to help out would be great. Also, im thinking to stick with a keen puncturing/thundering (elemenatl)bursting rapiers so when i do have to wiegh into melle i can further add to the burst damage build im using. (and i may be wrong but im under the impression when an enemy is held/fascinated/stunned that melle damage is auto-maticly a critical hit?(can anyone verify that?))

Paladin and Bard can't be mixed due to alignment restrictions.

[purple_paladin]

paladins have to be Lawful Good, and bards (and barbarians) cannot be lawful.

[HumanRogue]

I'd love to make a build with paly and bard levels. Unfortunately, to be a paladin, you must be of lawful good alignment and to be a bard you must be of non-lawful alignment. So, they don't mix well.

[SCOTTRIFE69]

forgot all abt that!!!! dang..... wasted time

[SCOTTRIFE69]

i will have a drow with multiple personality disorder! one LG pal 8 and one non lawful bard 6! HAHA DDO, i win again!!

Hate to let you know you also would be "lacking a tad" in most of the areas u were after IF you could mix.

Your Bard Songs would be sub-Par, your AC sub-Par, Your DPS and healing as well.

BTW your concerned about High DEX for AC yet you want to be a TWF? And BTW you could equip +4 or +5 TMFP, Drow ASF enhancements and +5 STR gloves from LOTD (-5% ASF) and run around with a 20 DEX getting +5 DEX Bonus if using Daggertooth's)

I have an Elven Pal 8 5 Wiz Fighter 7 in the making with that gear in mind. Designed out of boredom and will be quite effective Solo Build.

Anyway...GL2U

Would be nice... Heck if you could do this.. Just imagine a Paladin 3/Barbarian 13... frightening...

No reason to go 7 Ftr, put that level back into Pally for +3 Divine Favors, so 9 Pal / 5 Wiz / 6 Ftr.

Just saying.......

[Dexxaan]

Not a bad idea; But I was thinking I could ditch Daggertooth's belt (and still have FAM III; and use many other nice ones +6 CON or GFL; OR if I get Titan Belt and/or 7 figered after 20 Runs I'd be using +6 STR and GFL on Belt aand my UMD thru the roof with 7FG's...


We'll see how he ends up, but he's only Pal 4 Wiz 2 now and focusing on my TWF Dwarven Ranger-Barb 4 now.

Thanks though.
