    Default Build Request -- Daxe wielding evasion FVS?

    Hello, long time reader first time poster

    Lets cut to the chase, I have a 32 pt. standard dwarf axesinger at level 20 that I am interested in TRing into a evasion FVS and/or cleric...I already made my Min II Daxes though, so I'd like to use them if possible. Is there a viable build that will allow me to use them, perhaps with monk levels?

    Thanks

    You could try a 17 FvS/2 Mnk/1 Ftr type deal. The monk and fighter get you three feats and DAxe prof for free (fighter), which would cover your 3 TWF feats. 34 pt starting stats of something like:

    Str 16 (+5 Levels)
    Dex 15
    Con 16
    Int 8
    Wis 12
    Cha 12

    You'll be wanting a +2 tome in dex, wis for sure, cha and str more than likely (so a supreme is probably in order )
    I'd go with lvl1 - monk, lvl2 - fighter then FvS to heal/BB and then monk right after that. Feats would be (not in order):

    Toughness (Monk Bonus @ lvl 1)
    TWF (Fighter Bonus @ lvl 2)
    ITWF
    GTWF
    Maximize
    Empower
    Quicken
    Extend
    Power Attack (Monk bonus @ lvl 14?)
    Empower Healing

    Dwarven, 18fvs, 2 rogue (or 2 monk). Take DAxe as an exotic weapon proficiency feat.

    This, but drop the fighter, and be a human. Who says you need to be a dwarf to use DAxes? Use the Extra Human feat for Exotic DAxe prof, and drop Empower completely.

    in no order:
    Daxe Prof (Human)
    Toughness (Monk)
    TWF (Monk)
    iTWF
    gTWF
    Power Attack
    IC Slash
    Quicken
    Maximize
    Extend
    .

    How impartial are you to lvl 9 spells and or wings? Or do you follow the forum herd ?

    Although dwarf 17cleric/2monk/1ftr will net you lvl 9 spells but less of a dps/tank toon, less sp/hp/saves/etc

    Hmm, that's a not bad idea at all. You get to keep a level 9 spell, but you're down empower and empower healing (one traded for IC Slash). Also lose the racial bonuses to the DAxes. Hmm, okay, how about:

    Dwarf Cleric 17/Monk 2/Fighter 1

    Str: 16
    Dex: 15
    Con: 16
    Int: 8
    Wis: 14
    Cha: 10

    and my original feat line up, perhaps switching empower for IC: Slash though. Now you've got the TWF, racial damage bonuses, empower heal, more wis, AND Mass Heal.

    Just another thought!

    1 - Don't you get level 9 spells at level 18? Meaning any 17/x split will lose out totally on level 9 goodies such as Mass Heal.

    2 - Given your feats, and assuming you're putting level ups into STR (as a melee build), you'll be sitting at 22-25 WIS... and nothing to boost the DCs of your BB and Destruction and so forth. So is the 14 WIS really bringing you a benefit over say, 18 CON (HP never hurt anyone), and maybe 10 INT (so you can hit Balance and Concentration). Or even maxing STR instead, as you're looking at -4 to-hit from the oversized TWF, and a FVS is a bit short on To-hit in general. Much less with PA going (which will mean what, -9 penalty to-hit?).
    Anyone who disagrees is a Terrorist...
