The Hurtlocker: 13 Rogue/ 6 Paladin/ 1 monk

[Dark-Star]

The Hurtlocker

Warforged 13 rogue/ 6 paladin/ 1 monk

The Hurtlocker is designed to be a very well rounded raid participant, covering all of the major melee roles: DPS, main tanking via increased hate and dps, and off tanking via intimidating/turtling. The by-product of the build resulted in a solid soloer and group member as well.

Built for Mod 9, the Hurtlocker's biggest strength is perhaps his defense, with very high saves, solid AC, improved evasion, knockdown immunity, 500+ hps and the ability to heal himself and others. In dps mode he will be cranking out respectable DPS at +79-89 average to damage while sneak attacking with Khopeshes, using GTWF, plus divine sacrifices at 5d6 light damage x2 every three seconds. On trash, crippling strike will quickly result in auto-crits and sneak attacks, and the synergy of a well placed divine sac or exaulted smite will result in a x4 critical with maximum damage potential (once fully geared) reaching 342 total damage for ES (348 for DS) - on two swings at once if timed right ((10 GS Khop +6 pali level +45 boosted damage +6 Bloodstone = 67 x4 = 268) +62 max sneak attack +12 holy). Add in a 25% haste boost and situationally the DPS potential is quite good.

Tanking the Hurtlocker can fill both the intimi-tank roll, turtling with a tower shield and Docent of Defiance, or be the true main tank via solid base DPS and toggled +160% additional hate.

I try to be well thought out in my builds, but I usually make a few mistakes. If anyone catches any I'd appreciate them being pointed out, as well as any feedback on how to make the Hurtlocker a better character.

Thanks for looking.
