So I am about to TR my Drow 18/2 PM Rogue splash. I've loved playing him and had a lot of fun. Evasion and UMD raising dead healers in a pinch as well as my versatility in being the trapper who can mass hold, etc. It's gotten me into several groups looking only for a trapper rogue where otherwise I'd have been left by the wayside. However sadly for higher level Epics even I realize my DCs are too low. I have no ToD rings yet due to lousy luck getting boot mats so my DCs are only about 37-38. This keeps me out of Epic Chrono and makes me to nervous to join Epic sands on my caster for fear of blowing it for the whole party.

So I am ready to TR, ToD rings or not. I originally went Drow for the poor mans extra point build, but am saddened by the fact that TR'd Drow are still only 32 points as opposed to other races. I have read many posts about which race is better and even tried an older version of a builder. I compared a TR'd human 34 point build to a post from someone who built a drow and they showed a 27 top Int (Though I don't think they counted the capstone somehow) with a +2 Int tome and I got mine to 31 (that's with Capstone or 29 without) and using a +2 tome or to even things out 32 with a +3 tome.

Everyone says Drow have the highest int even as a single TR from what I think I've read so what gives? Have I done this wrong? To end the debate once and for all is it possible if anyone is good or enjoys the builder (I'm really slow with it ) to post three identical builds for human, drow and elf so we can see for once who would have the highest DC and Spell Pen? I recognize that there might be some racial differences that would promote one build to be made slightly different to enhance that racial feature, but every time I see a build it seems it's apples and oranges. The clarify the build should be spec'd for GSF in Necro and Enchant. Pure Wizard PM build. I will probably make it ice and force damage based for an end build. Though acid seems nice too. It's good we can play with this every 3 days.

Let's make this the definitive thread and end the discussion once and for all!!! (BTW thanks in advance )
