Before I start, I would just like to state that I have not tested this build in the game yet, but I will build the character whether it is viable or not, just for fun.
Also, the stats in the planner that I have provided are completely unbuffed, and with no gear. I don't know what's going on, if it is supposed to be like that in the Character Planner, but some of the gear is just not on there. /shrug, So I guess I'll just type it out for yall.
The Chance Dragon is a 6 Paladin/2 Monk/12 Cleric. Lawful Good for the Monk levels. 32 Point Build.
The Saves on this build are actually very nice, I am happy with that part of the build, especially with evasion. Unbuffed and Ungeared The Chance Dragon is standing at 29 Fort, 22 Reflex, 22 Will Save, making for some very high end game numbers.
The Stats are a little stretched, due to needing 15 Dex for twf, 13 Str for Power Attack, Con for decent Hitpoints, and Max Cha. It is somewhat difficult. But end as so:Code:Character Plan by DDO Character Planner Version 03.09.02 DDO Character Planner Home Page The Chance Dragon Level 20 Lawful Good Human Male (6 Paladin \ 2 Monk \ 12 Cleric) Hit Points: 329 Spell Points: 645 BAB: 16\16\21\26\26 Fortitude: 29 Reflex: 22 Will: 22
Constitution -16 +7 Item +2 Ship +2 Rage Spell +2 Exceptional +4 Madstone +1 Litany = 34
Charisma -28 +7 Item +2 Ship +2 Exceptional +1 Litany = 40
The other stats are not as important, only for Pre-Reqs really. So they only have some +6 stat items and such. +2 tomes in Str and Dex as to spend less when rolling up the character.
As far as skills go, Maxed UMD and Balance, and nothing into the rest. UMD serves us for some items, arcane scrolls, etc. But not so much heal scrolls as you get those free with the 12 Cleric LevelsCode:Starting Ending Feat/Enhancement Abilities Base Stats Base Stats Modified Stats (32 Point) (Level 1) (Level 20) (Level 20) Strength 11 13 13 Dexterity 15 17 17 Constitution 13 15 16 Intelligence 8 8 8 Wisdom 8 8 8 Charisma 18 25 28 Tomes Used +2 Tome of Strength used at level 7 +2 Tome of Dexterity used at level 7 +2 Tome of Constitution used at level 7 +2 Tome of Charisma used at level 7.
The feats that I used in this build were also very stretched, but I tried to make it work, having metas for the Radiant Servant Bursts and Auras. The feats used in this build are Maximise, Toughness, Empower Healing, Quicken, Empower, IC: Slashing, Monk PA, Monk twf, Itwf, and Gtwf.Code:Starting Ending Feat/Enhancement Base Skills Base Skills Modified Skills Skills (Level 1) (Level 20) (Level 20) Balance 4 19.5 19.5 Bluff 4 9 9 Concentration 1 3 4 Diplomacy 4 9 9 Disable Device n/a n/a n/a Haggle 4 9 9 Heal -1 -1 1 Hide 2 3 3 Intimidate 4 9 9 Jump 0 1 1 Listen -1 -1 -1 Move Silently 2 3 3 Open Lock n/a n/a n/a Perform n/a n/a n/a Repair -1 -1 -1 Search -1 -1 -1 Spot -1 -1 -1 Swim 0 1 1 Tumble n/a n/a n/a Use Magic Device 6 20.5 20.5

Radiant Servant I and II, sadly you can not take HotD, which I was originally planning on.

The Damage that you will realistically be doing with this build, is around 60 a swing,which is not a lot you might think, but then again you are a cleric really, and you are charisma based, so that might be alot. You also have the smites of a Paladin, Divine Might, Ravager Set ticking off, and you can turn undead with ease.Code:2x Epic Dynastic Falcatas (For the Cha Attack/Damage Mod).. 2d8+6.. 19-20/x3.

Some other fun facts about the Chance Dragon: Your Lay on Hands will be extremely Potent, you will have a large, large sum of turn undead attempts, Quicken to spam bursts, you also have a healing over time effect on a some-what melee character which is kind of nice.
Now, I will say again, that I do not know if this toon will be viable, but I will try it out, Screenshots and all.
Will report back the results.

Why max CHA? Sure, you have higher saves and more TUs for extra auras / bursts; but gimping your DPS to achieve that is a poor tradeoff, IMHO. Base CHA 14 + 2 tome is enough for Divine Might II, which as high as you can get with this lvl split; your saves will be plenty high and your DPS will be higher if you put more into STR.
Do you have HE? This is radically different from your build, but what I'd consider is: HE monk 6 / cleric 13 / ftr 1 w/pally dilly feat for bonus to saves using handwraps. You'll get two more feats, one which you'll use to add Dodge for Ninja for Shadow Fade (25% Incorp). Cleric 13 would get you the next bump in aura output and lvl 7 spells; I'm thinking MCSW would be the most useful. Feats are tricky, but there are 13 total: 7 base + 3 monk + 1 ftr + 2 epic; I'm thinking TWF x3, Emp, Emp Heal, Max, Quicken, Dodge, Toughness, Stunning Fist, IC:Blunt, PA or Precision, +1 more (maybe Imp Sunder or Stunning Blow).Semi-retired Build Engineer. Everything was better back in our day. Get off my lawn.

Interesting...I think a fair bit of build tweakage might be called for, I think some of the Paladin levels may detract from the build unless you are building for a tank. With 6 paladin levels, my first thought is Divine Righteousness, which might combo nicely with Divine Punishment for aggro-holding...albeit perhaps not as well as 6 more Cleric levels would do. However if one could somehow fit in Defender of Syberis and Intimidate, I think that would help justify the 6 paladin levels a bit more.
With only 12 Cleric levels, I am curious why the starting Charisma of 18...one might consider dropping this down a bit, or possibly bumping up to Cleric 15 to access Divine Might III. Even that only takes 18 Charisma including tomes and levelups.
Unfortunately the Radiant Servant stuff will be Cleric-level based rather than character-level based, in addition to the recent nerfing in update 14, I fear you won't get as much party-healing functionality as you may wish for.
Note that Madstone and activating radiant bursts/aura are incompatible, though LoH should work while raged to my knowledge. Divine Healing enhancement can be used while raged, but it's not viable at higher levels/costs too much AP anyway.
Some directions one might consider:
18 Cleric/2 Paladin (in preparation for the enhancements pass and the third tier Clerical prestige classes.)
15 Cleric/3 Monk/2 Paladin (extremely hotbar intensive, combining Clerical spells, light monk combos and paladin smites)
15 Cleric/3 Paladin/2 Monk (much simpler)
15 Cleric/5 Paladin (divine sacrifice)
13 Cleric/5 Paladin/2 Monk (similar to your posted build, except with slightly better party support buffs/healing: quickened mass pro elements are handy)
13 Cleric/6 Monk/1 Fighter (as unbongwah suggested)
12 Cleric/6 Monk/2 Paladin
If it's a Monk splash on a Cleric, investing into Wisdom for Stunning Fist can also be quite fun!

The Max Cha was just to do something different. The build was sort of based off of the Epic Dynastic Falcata's with Cha Attack and Damage Mod. So that I could be in the middle of it all, with somewhat good DPS with max cha, spamming bursts as ill have a million of them, and be able to UMD scroll some things, and giving all the melee health per second with my Radiance 2 aura. Plus access to the Divine Might enhancements.

Reading this makes me think that you think CHA is the main stat for clerics. Wisdom is the main stat for clerics, cha only gives you more Turn Undead/Radiant Bursts/Auras. I have the pally levels for the saves, and for the extremely potent Lay on Hands. Originally Posted by JollySwagMan

Yep, build will probably not be viable end game, or reliant on arty buffs to pass DR, but I'll post on it. lolwiz·ard [wiz-erd]
