Holy Ballistae Bomber build...

[Strumpoo]

Well, I am screwing around trying to reroll my Great Xbow user. I built him as a novelty and he is fun to play.

Have a bunch of good Great Xbows to use, including a WOP, so he actually does ok.

Problem is I didn't plan him very well orginally. Trying to re-roll him to make him put out a little more damage.

Was thinking about making him a fighter/barb/rogue for the crit rage (get that great xbow critting on a 13!). But then I started thinking about monks and pallies with the extra feats and ZEAL (along with stacking fighter haste boost)! And the barb build was running into feat problems.

Let me know what you think, I know this guy isn't the most uber character out there, just building him for fun, but want him to be the best "eye shooter out-er" I can make him using the Great Xbow.

I figure when all is said and done he should have good saves and decent attributes for what I am trying to do with him.


Looking at final stats of:

16 STR
32 DEX
12 INT
22 CON
16 WIS
24 CHA

Should put my unbuffed saves at:

28
29
23

Hitpoints should be around 320-350 once I am done with the racial enhancements equipment not in the builder. I kept 8 action points available for extra HP or something else I may need.

Probably shoot for a final build of 2 fighter/16 pally/ 2 monk..

Maxxing out diplo to get aggro off me when I crit with the ballistae..

UMD should be around 20-22 to use any weapon I need.
