Human Barbarian AC

[Visty]

levelups into con are always a bad idea, no matter the class. con is always secondary stat

a dr hp tank can work though

Last note: this isn't the build i would make, i take only the abilities allocation, HP and the AC.

This is perhaps the worst build I have ever seen. 14 WIS on a Barbarian? Are you kidding me?


And as for your STR, my WIS-based Favoured Soul would out-DPS you.

Your build is a gimp. Delete it now.

Just upgraded it to a Shield version, after all if i want AC i must take a Shield.

With Shield: AC = Base (10) + DT Leather Armor (8) + Dexterity (7) + Protection (5) + Combat Expertise (5) + 5 Twilight Mithral Heavy Shield (7) + Greensteel Weapon Insight (4) + Epic Seal of the Earth (5) + DT Dodge Tier 3 (3) + Dodge Feat (1) + Alchemical Armor Ritual (1) + Alchemical Shield Ritual (1) + Improved Uncanny Dodge 30 Seconds (6) + Human Versatility Armor Class Boost 20 Seconds (5) = 57 + 6 + 5

Right now it's at 68 AC with shield.

Spell Haste (+1)
Spell Recitation (+2)
Bard Inspire Heroics (+4)
Paladin Aura of Good (+5)
Halfling Hero's Companion IV (+3)

So with these buffs i hit 68 + 15 = 83 AC with shield! Nice.

WARNING: this build isn't a "perfect" one! Many say it's gimped! It isn't about usefulness or DPS too. It's one for those outside who like HP, DR, speed and a bit of AC in a Barbarian.

Splash fighter, wear DT full plate armor (AC of 15 + 1 Dex - better than your DT leather of 8 + 7 Dex), and you can use a Tower Shield (9 AC instead of 7)

And with DT full plate, you can dump Dex, and max out STR again...

You can make a near-full DPS barbarian who can switch into AC mode... Again, you just can't be both at the same time.

WARNING. This build has not been played from the OP, and he said he will not roll a similiar toon, this build is all based on item impossible to obtain for this build (epic seal of earth??? NONE will want this build in a epic quest, it's a leecher build). If you want waste your time and a character slot, play at your own risk and danger.

Khanyth when i put a LFM, i don't have pre-defined expectations about any Character. That's more fun! A Battle Cleric, a DPS Paladin, a Ranged Fighter, a Caster Melee, it's fine! They can all be great, and make smooth runs.
I prefer to get out of parties who can't accept alternative builds. 63 AC, 77 AC buffed without Shield is acceptable.
I don't expect nothing from no one a priori, the Cleric may prefer to nuke! Need healings, cast Expeditious Retreat, Sprint Boost, Invisible potion and try to loose aggro, don't expect healing, only when unconcious i expect if anyone can.

This guy has not played end game plain and simple, He is a FTP that all.
