Halfling Pale Master/Ninja Spy (High AC & Saves)

[Jeremyx1307]

I do realize this is an odd mix but i have a feeling it would work out very well.
This build revolves around staying in lich form most of the time while using shadow fade (Short Swords as monk weapons) for the %25 miss chance + Haste + Displace with the Insane Ac/saves and evasion would make this build VERY hard to hit while staying in a firewall not to mention the great HP regen from Death aura/Lich Form/Shroud of the abbot, Great umd due to good charisma and of course wizard buffs (Stone skin ect) One tough cookie eh?

AC-
Should be well over 70
6 monk levels, maximum dex, pally aura, wiz buffs.. nuff said.

DPS -

High to hit due to high dex and some sneak attacks+smites should be enough with the increased speed while in wind stance + haste.


I preset to you the Shadow monster -

I realize the feat selection could be better. ill work on a better one if i get positive feedback.

Also, Will add halfling dragonmarks for healing when forms become toggle on/off in the next update. (jump out of form and heal)

actually that character probably is good on ac but i dont see why you choose it, u wasted so many tomes just to make ur highest stat dex which is only 26 so in which its probably would barely hit anything unless you use your spells more often...

[geoffhanna]

He'll hit. He has weapon finesse.

Not going to be a lot of DPS - especially vs monsters that are immune to sneak attack - but looks like it could be fun.

I don't think I've seen anyone take Ten Thousand Stars

That is really a LOT of enhancements. I'm surprised you can fit them all. Well done

[Baalis]

You can cast spells level 7 with only 16 on intelligence???

[voodoogroves]

The planner is not showing items. That's not a 16, it's a 22. That dex isn't a 26, it's at least a 32. etc. etc.

[Therigar]

The only problem with builds of this type, and I have something similar going currently @ L15 in Doofus, is that their spells are not really strong enough for L20 content and neither is their melee or ranged damage. The problem comes in sticking their spells against higher level mobs with SR.

Certainly a lot more powerful in L12-15 content than a L12 wizard. But, with 8 more levels in cross classes that's about what you'd expect....
