Wanted : Melee Arti/Pala build.

[Zauriel]

I agree im stretching it extremely thin here... But is there any viable way to mix and match Artificer & Paladin class with each other for a viable solo build - all the way to lvl 20.

Im considering going with the drow race... for the easy INT & CHA.

I know this might be a disaster in progress, none the less i hoped for some fresh ideas to atleast make it a somewhat viable build to solo fun with - without being a complete hazzle.

Thanks upfront.

PS: Yes im a complete DDO Noob.

I saw a build for this a few days ago, but I can't find the thread now. Essentially the idea behind the 2 paladin levels was the +CHA bonus to saves to make up for having low Reflex saves on a trapfinding class. I think the guy put 2 levels of Rogue or Monk in for Evasion also, but I'm not 100% sure on that. 16 or 18 artificer for the rest. Used a Bastard Sward with THF feats to allow for glancing blows.

Hopefully this helps at least a little......

What are the paladin levels for? You'd get more out of some fighter, monk or rogue levels imo.

I think the concept will work for normal 1 - 20. For high level elite and epic, I'm not the one to ask. Maybe with the correct gear.
