Post your Archmage build

[Mister_Peace]

Several posters on this board have expressed the opinion that Archmage is a good prestige, with several benefits for the wizard taking it as opposed to staying pure (or going PM). I would like to see builds posted in this thread that reflect that.

Nobody has one?

I guess it is too early to ask for this. You only can respec your Enhancements every 3 days, for some changes you need to LR like for the Spell Focus. Further after each change you may probably first want to make yourself an image if this combination is viable or not.

In my first attempt for example I try'd to keep the Fire/Ice Elemental lines as far as possible but skipped Arcane Bolt and Blast with only the Spell Like Abilities Evocation I+II. But the SLA Evocation II with 'Gust of Wind' didn't seemed to work (bugged?), not work as expected or not in the content I try'd it. But only the SLA I with 'Magic Missile' is too less for spamming as there is nothing to cycle with. Having re-spec'd to Force/Repair and AM 1-4 with SLA 1-4 plus Arcane Bolt and Blast looks a bit better, but still I not make use of most of the SLA.

Meanwhile I suspect that Evocation is not the line to go with but rather Conjuration, Enchantment or Necromancy. Or completely dump the SLA and only aim for the extra SP+DC.

PS: It can be a good PrE, but with the whole bunch of possibilities it is not easy to find a acceptable tradeoff.
