Lightazk - Pure Fighter

Just capped his final life so was time to get a screen shot before it all changes in expansion.
Think its a record.



Could get 1 more AC if i bothered to get Haste Guard to trigger but im lazy.

Thanks to those in the top left that came and buffed me.

[Zorth]

132 you say at its height, but what is your average without buffs.

[Gunga]

Pretty cool. Can you hit anything?

[sirgog]

Can we get a FRAPS capture of you tanking epic LOB with that AC going? Or epic Lailat if you can't be bothered running to LOB?

[Faent]

Are you tumbling behind that Inventory window? Willing to post a shot of the Character screen at the same time?

In any case, very nice, max gratz, and excellent work.

[Lighti]

In my Sig is a post linking to tht toon on 90 AC completely unbuffed. Did not take a screenshot of Charecter Sheet at the time.

I will not be posting an AC Breakdown, part of the fun was working out how to get the max.

+52 to attack as it says on the screen shot with nothing but AC buffs.

[Moltier]

Awesome! Im sure it will be hard to beat that high AC!

All Hail the High Priest of the Esoteric Mysteries of high AC! Let us Worship this One who Guards the Dark Secrets and Shields them from Those who would Hope to Understand. All Harken Unto Him who has but Refuses to Provide Knowledge to the Pathetic Masses of Unwashed Newbies. For They are not Fit for this Knowledge.

Oh, and if you don't break your AC down, I will do it for you. This gives you a chance to break it down yourself. If you want to try to shroud this in mystery, feel free, but realize that you'll fail in that attempt.

No, he can't tank while tumbling.

Edit: Tumbling is accounting for a full 10 points of his AC.

[Lighti]

I have no problem with other people trying to calculate how i reached such AC and writing there own assumed breakdowns. But i will not be giving a blow by blow account as that just leads invalid posts critising various aspects. I like to keep my charecter unique else i would have posted this in the fighter forum for all to copy.

[Ormyrr]

Nice one!

Should have hidden the UI and just brought up the character sheet with the AC. To hide the current buffs, if you wanted to go to extremes of hiding how you got it.

Congrats either way, certainly is impressive. Even if it can only be sustained for brief periods of time.

.. NERF Fighters!!

[Mrmorphling]

Gratz, i kinda suspected something smilar was brewing when you were searching for a +6 aura pally yesterday .

[Blackmoors]

Jeeez, theres a few negativity in this thread, jealousy perhaps...?

IMO is a very nice achievement and if you dont mind Lighti, I would like to try and break down your build in terms of AC and post on this thread - if its ok with you ofc

[DarkRea]

Awesome number, nice work. Only problem is poor Satureon will feel obliged to work overtime to match that now

Can we get a FRAPS capture of you tanking epic LOB with that AC going? Or epic Lailat if you can't be bothered running to LOB?

I would love to see this too, just a combat log / FRAPS with eLoB/eDQ missing you 10 times in a row or so.

---

Regarding the tumbling, I think you can tumble towards a mob then hit it 3 times and tumble again and keep the AC bonus. If not then at least when just stalling the mob(eLob only) you can utilize it and just keep intimidating it.

Still 121AC should mean eLob only hitting you on 14+ right?...albeit for some 100 seconds only but still.

[Grieve]

So here's my breakdown of what I think is going on here in his screenshot. It might be off slightly from what he really has, but should be pretty close.

10 base
12 dex (34 based on myDDO yugo & ship buff are assumed in here)
17 armor (based on a prior Screenshot)
12 shield (max dex 13)
2 alchem rits
7 dodge (3,2,1 items & 1 feat)
6 nat armor
5 prot
4 HA
3 profane nat
3 SD
4 SD stance
2 ToD SD set
5 CE
--------
92
--------
1 Dex store pot (pushing dex to 13, the Max Dex Bonus)
4 AC song
3 ship buffs
6 Pali aura
3 Halfling Hero's companion
2 Fabricators proc
2 recitation
2 enchant spells
5 armor boost
1 haste
10 Tumbling
---------
131

Wonder how close I am to the actual.

Feel free.

Not entirely sure why i used a dex Store pot when i have Epic Spectral Gloves and LotD seeting on my tool bars. Waste of 60 TP oops.

Interesting threat but feel free to do so. The more people post there ideas more chance i have of improving my set up.
