Looking fir custom build! PM Barbarian! "28 Days" build

[DkrLeo]

Hey guys! Looking for a PM Barb! Zombie with rage! Pro's? Con's? What do you think?

Barb Rage prohibits spellcasting = problem.
Flavor build, sure. Useful: not so much.

If you wanted to make a melee Pale master, I'd go monk, and benefit from the touch attacks.

It wouldn't be THAT much of a problem if he only wanted zombie.

Extend would be required, he could haste/displace/rage/death aura then rage up.

Rinse and repeat.

Now the effectiveness of what the build might accomplish is another question altogether!!

LOL at the "28 Days Later" reference.

Main issues are no spellcasting while Raged and zombie attack speed penalty makes it a poor choice for any melee. Monk 6 / wiz 12 is a semi-popular combo for a novelty unarmed build; I suppose barb 6 / wiz 12 could also be made to work.

I like the monkey business idea! Thanx!

You would need vampire form and the shroud of the abbot to make this work, honestly 12wis/6fighter/2whatever is much better and doesn't require you to dump your dps if you need to cast negative energy burst or something

Have a look at this build. 12wiz/6ftr/2monk Monk invasion, the most important thing when you turn into a vampire form. 4times damage is not a joke.

So far ive been monk1/wizzy6 so the Haste, Deathaura, displace, blur, rage BAPPITYBAPPITYBAP is amazing.
And with charged gaunts every few swpings i get an additional 50+dmg.
So what ur saying is 1 more level of monk and then fighter?
I was thinking about PM2/NS1 W12/M6/?2...
