New Interesting Artificer Builds

[jandhaer]

Now that we've had Artificers a couple days I know some of you out there have been studying the enhancements and feats, spells etc. and many have capped their first Artificer incarnations and have seen what they are at least for now capable of. So what I'm asking is to see what interesting builds people are thinking of developing. So far Ive only seen people talking about basically 2 diff builds.

1. L20 Artificer (possibly w/ splash of evasion class) - Mostly caster, with some repeater pewpew to fill in the gaps.

2. Varied mix of Rogue(mechanic)/Artificer - Focusing more on the repeater aspects, Int damage bonuses etc.

OK so we've heard those before. I'm interested in hearing peoples ideas on differerent builds like a melee heavy build (think WF STR build FvS) throwing down in the middle of a Blade Barrier and Flame Turret with excellent self heals, force field, stone skin etc.,

Or an all ranged all the time Arcane Archer build H/elf using a heavy repeater in between multishot cooldowns (I know AA doesn't work on Xbows but I believe it would still out DPS a bow while MS is on timer and with the endless fusilage could be very nice).

Anyways seems like there are SO many possibilities that haven't been fully explored yet Im excited to see what people come up with
