28 Days Build

[DkrLeo]

Ive been working on a Monk Pale Master build and everything is coming up roses so far.
monk1/wizzy6.
should I go 11 wiz and 9 Monk to get ToD?
Or 12 Wizzy and 8 Monk for PM2 NS1?
Or....(insert other multiclass ideas)

Thoughts?
Feelings?

Right now i'm running around like a zombie from 28Days.
Too bad this game doesnt have Fear on Sight like pnp huh?

Do you intend to stay in Zombie form when you fight? It's wildly sub-optimal, thanks to the attack speed reduction, but if you want to stick with it, PM2 probably won't get you much. Might as well pick up ToD.

If you're willing to switch to Wrath or Vampire form, I'd go with Wizard 12.

thats what i was aiming for.
Or multi into fighter and go Vamp form for extra dmg.
For now the zombie is somewhat funny to watch and the 1 shot kills are shocking!

but wraith form is my ultimate goal.

but wraith form is my ultimate goal.

Well, then the decision is simple. You need Wizard 12 for Wrath form, which means no ToD.

As for Fighter, would you go 6 Fighter, for Kensai I, and 2 Monk for evasion?

In terms of unarmed DPS 2 Monk/6 Fighter seems pretty similar to me to 8 Monk. The Monk might be better factoring in Ki strikes.

If you go 8 Monk, though, you can pick up NS I. Unfortunately, I don't think Shadow Fade stacks with Wraith Form incorporeality, but it should work in Vampire form, which would be neat. I'd say Vampire + Shadow Fade is better than Wraith Form.

I figured as much.
Any idea on vamp Stonedust wraps working in undead form?
