HHEEAALL!!! MMEEE HO Solo FvS - solo capable

[flipstre]

Pure fvs

Half Orc

Male

32 point build

Str 19 << i might drop this to 18 or to 20 depending on what ppl say
Dex 8
Con 14 <<might drop str to 18 for more con to 16 mayb
Int 8
Wis 13 << dunno if i should drop it lower just using it for blade barrier. it will not b uber tho
Cha 12



feat progression

lvl 1 Prof:Great axe <<< (half-orc dont get any favoured weps makes leveling easier. using greataxes for leveling)

i might drop it later for other feats though

fvs Sovereign host << (i took this for da heals lvl 6 rather than the silver flame)

thinking of getting the usual maximise heal, toughness, power attack, quicken spell and others

need a good feat progression

also as Half orc it will not be getting heal amp



Purpose

It will not be da best tank nor the best dps thats what fighters barbs rogues are for just more a support dps and backup frontline healbot. It is mainly for soloing if i cant find a good party
i can take a lvl or 2 of fighter for martial proficiency but dont want to lose da wings and 10 dr. Hence i want to go full fvs and sacrifice a feat for greataxe prof

Lose 10 dr and some cha, dont lose wings.

Either go high WIS and put you level ups into it- or dump it completely. Mediocre WIS is as good as no WIS whatsoever.

[Paleus]

Seconding the opinion on dumping wis. I run a wf fvs with no wis, my blade barriers can still land on some mobs with bad reflex, not nearly as good spell based dps as my wis speced fvs, but its ok sometimes. Other than that, no offensive casting is viable. If you dump wis, then you can bump con or str.

One issue you are overlooking is the favored soul free feats related to their deity's choosen weapon. In this case, you'll be getting bonuses to long-swords and using great-axes. Its a bummer that half-orcs don't get any deity specific two-handed weapons, but then again, they got almost everything else you could want.

In fact, you may want to look into trying out adapting the typical human twf fvs longsword build into Half-orc. You don't get the THF orc feats, but everything else should be kosher. The issue is you lose a free human feat on a feat starved build.

I disagree...

Going with a HORC and not utilizing it's fairly considerable enhancement bonuses to THF weapons seems counter productive to me.

I would build this like a min/max WF LoB melee build:

Max Str (all level up points here)
12 Cha
rest in Con

The issue is going to be with the feats as you have only 7 and a "skimpy" version of this would generally have 8:

Maximize
Empower Heal
Extend
Quicken
Toughness
Power Attack
IC: Slash
Weapon Proficiency: Greataxe

If you don't plan on doing much raiding I'd drop Empower Heal. If you do plan on doing some raiding I'd probably drop Extend until you've made yourself a MinII greataxe then either swap IC: Slash for Extend or grab something else like Stunning Blow.

Ideally, you'd have an ESoS, which doesn't naturally have keen. I'd consider dropping empower heal no matter what, and once you have the E SoS, drop greataxe for greatsword. Hopefully you won't have crafted too many greataxes by the E SoS time.

I wonder how this synergy will work with the low-HP bonuses. Quicken and fast reflexes and Death Pact if things go sour?

That's an interesting take. Depends how long the STR buff remains after you've healed yourself above the low-HP thresholds. Doubt I'd ever take the STR enhancement bonus for 10% HP. Even with 650 hp, intentionally letting yourself get to 65hp is cutting any elite/epic encounter too close.

another thing i want to know is what skills and how many should i invest on (skills) if int is dump stat

my playstyle usually is max jump but i dont think it would be a good idea though
i was thinking of a couple on concentration and heal and 1 on tumble probably

well thank you for your input so far i appreciate it a lot thanks

also what should my feat progression look like please if anyone can have an input please thank you

You do not need points in the Heal skill. Nobody does unless they are playing permadeath and only use items they find.

anyone else have comments on this build or other builds some ppl actually did in llama land

please and thank you

Lev 17: 26 STR, 26 CON, 26 WIS - 441 HP

I can use Destruction, Greater Command, Slay living...

I took Heighten yes, but it works.

You can play just fine without min-maxing....I can solo and group just fine, since I can melee, heal and cast offensive spells including insta-kills and mass damage.

The min-maxing mentality is getting really old...

[Kominalito]

It will not be da best tank nor the best dps...

[Twerpp]

Maybe if they get a favored weapon two hander LOB style it would be worthwhile... it's pretty weak otherwise.
