Level 10 Update: This build is working well; good dps (tempest!), AC is still useful, longswords are cheap and plentiful.

Level 14 Update: The level progression was perfect; I was just starting to feel that AC alone wasn't really cutting it anymore (GH and vale stuff), balanced by more and longer displacement dragonmarks, when 6 monk rolls around and I get ninja incorporeal. The combo is unbelievable.

Level 18: Decided once and for all to go fighter 8 for the extra feat. I took toughness since I couldn't decide, and I can always switch it out later.


Update 19: WAAAAY more possibilities now. If I were to rebuild this build, now, it would use scimitars or rapiers.

Dwarf with either axes or picks and hammers is amazing.

Human/PDK with khopeshes and bastard swords (you've got the feats to spare)

Bladesworn THF with falchions and greatswords; just replace the ranger levels with paladin

Not sure about my last feat.Thinking about:

Toughness
Zen Archery
Stunning Blow
Two Weapon Defense
Greater Weapon Focus
Sap
Extend

Coming up on level 18, I really need to make a decision here...

i really like the premise of this build ad had thrown something through thecharacter generator as well. the two main premise that i was trying to nail it looks like you did which is basically displacement dragonmark stackability w shadow fade - this also brings room for having the LS and SS be Ki weapons - and with only imp crit slash you have them both crit. i dont liek the reduced HP form elf but c'est la vie. i think the dispalce and shadow fade should be enough to make up for the lack of HP. i was wondering how the build is coming aling and whether or not you have attempted dualing retribution, enduring conviction or the dragon sword of acid or sirroco or god forbid dualing epic sirroco. anyway jsut update and let us knwo how it looks - cheers m8

Sorry, must have missed this, just came back to refer to this build. I actually switched servers (again) before getting this character fully geared, but it was good enough that I am building a new one on Thelanis, with perhaps only minor changes.

The displacement is not quite as good as it used to be, due to slightly more enemies having true seeing, but there is still enough trash out there to make it useful. I will update again when the new build is finished

Lol, I basically have 4 different variations of this build, now.
