Twist of Fate for Exalted Angel

[mikarddo]

Greetings.

I am pondering which twists to add to my caster fvs using exalted angel

My main ideas are:

Draconic Incarnation
- Tier 1 - Draconic perception. Reflex is great - but I am unsure what darkvision does exactly.

Magister:
- Tier 1 - Unearthly reactions. Reflex, dodge and the ability to tumble through enemies looks like the very best twist to me
- Tier 2 - School specialist. +3 dc to evoc looks pretty good.

Unyielding Sentinel
- Tier 1 - Brace for impact. Fort + all three saves look good.

So I guess I will go for three of these - which can be done fairly cheap as they are all low tier.

Please do comment with your ideas. I am definitely looking for input on better options even if they cost more fate points.

I have twisted on my FvS +3 evocation from magister, +2 evocation from dragonic, and +3 spell pen from draconic. The first two require a twist of fate slot to be upgraded only once, the spell penetration requires you to upgrade your slot twice, so if you want all 3 you need max fate points plus the +2 fate point tome. It's pretty easy to get the first two though, just requires 8 fate points.

I haven't yet heard whether or not the DR from Shiradi stacks with FvS L20 /Cold Iron DR.

If it does, then that would be pretty much a no-brainer for me. 17/Cold Iron DR, and +15 Universal Spell Power? Oh yes.

Shiradi cold iron DR does not stack with FvS cold iron DR. Yes, I've tested it myself.

As per the topic,
I'm twisting in +3 necro DCs from magister, unearthly reactions from magister, and either brace for impact or block energy from unyielding.

Have you considered double rainbow? As a dps evoker caster, no DCs required awesomeness...

Doing that tree now (w/ Exalted Angel twists) and it's pretty fun.

I assume that would mean taking Tier 2 Prism to get into the stance and Tier 4 Double rainbow. Possible but expensive. Neat idea though if the effects are worth it. Do they proc off Avenging Light and the Archon or just actual spells?

They work with avenging light/archon

Now we are talking. Do you find the double rainbow worth it even at the cost of both a tier 4 and a tier 2 twisr? Have you tried the single rainbow for comparison?

I've tried this and sadly it does not work. You need prism, rainbow, and double rainbow to get double rainbow effects and there isn't enough twist points to get all 3. It's probably for the best as you could make a pretty monster caster with those twists.
