I've been playing F2P for around 2 months now and, after playing with a couple of build ideas, I've basically settled on this. It's a 28-point build used to rush EXP and favor to accumulate TP. I've found that DPS oriented melee lends itself to fast levelling and rushing. If this was a 32-point build the only thing I could see changing would be to bump the WIS up to 12 for a gain of +2 will saves. Terribly low AC is compensated partially for armor with damage reduction and guard properties such as an Adamantine Full Plate of Acid Guard.
* Build goals: High DPS, Big stunning blow DCs, decent saves...designed for taking down groups of mobs.

I don't know anything about damage formulas so I won't even try to feign knowledge in that topic. Maybe someone could post a reply. Does anyone see any glaring holes in this build? Any ways to make it better?
