Help with a Warchanter build please

[DefecTalisman]

Im very close to finishing a life of Barbarian and want to go Bard next life.
With my odd playing times and lack of people to zerg through lifes, I like to have a strong solo build.

Coming from a lvl20 Dwarf TWF pure Barbarian(currently rank 94). I had plenty haste/rage/heroism/lesser restoration/cure serious pots. A stack of Yugo and Mabar pots. Also a nice selection of clickys 11 haste/6 rage/3 heroism/1 greater heroism/3 cold sheild/2 stone sheild to name a few.

All I felt I lacked was support buffs like blur/displacment.
Healing was pretty ok from a hireling and when I needed the help I had a on par cleric I could rope along.
I learnt Im not happy with not being self sufficient.
I really enjoyed the high HP and DPS, also AC of +-50 with Light and Darkness and some party buffs.

My main aim is to get to level 20 as soon as I can(learning as much as I can along the way) and TR into a FVS or Cleic.

So this is what Ive come up with :

* Please note the bellow build uses a Stone Of Experience (level16). (So I will be skipping levels 8 through to 16)
* I have already used a +3 stat tome all round.
* I have a vast assortment of items at my disposal.
-Torc & Con Op bracers.
-Varies Iuon Stones and trinkets.
-Plenty Clickys and Potions.

Have a look at my Kublai Khan build, which is along the same lines.

[DefecTalisman]

Would I be able to dump charisma ? Im not to worried about the size of the blue bar, I have enough SP gain items to keep me going if im in melee the whole time. With the extra 6 stat points i could max constitution rather.
As im not playing levels 8-15, im a little worried I boost up to level 16 and find the character is useless, which could take me longer to get through the last 4 levels than the time I saved skipping levels.

Base CHA 8 + 2 tome + 6 item is all that's required. Given that you've already taken a +3 Supreme tome and will be skipping the mid-levels, you should be fine.

I would drop OTWF so you can move up ITWF/IC Slash/GTWF. If you're not going for khopeshes, consider adding Quicken to your metamagic selection.
