So many things to consider:

1st life was WF Barb
2nd life is currently Drow Ftr

3rd life?

I already have some gear that would benefit Barb for 3rd life:
-Knost Belt
-Titan Grip
-Berserker's Fury (although I would never waste a feat on barb for pathetic 30 sec clicky)
-Epic Cloak of night
(already have triple pos falchion, planning to craft min II Fal if I go Barb)
-Tharne's Goggles (although this would benefit both classes)


As far as gear that would benefit Assassin Rogue :
- set of Lightning II Heavy Picks (i know that nerf of auto crit makes picks less desireable, however shocking burst and shocking blast for 3d10,3d10, +4d6 (nat 20), and the ability to add vorpal and 14d6 to backstab damage to those picks seems hard to pass up.

Ultimately, I love playing barbs.. They are masters of dps. But I know how much dps a well built assassin rogue can dish out.

If I choose barb, those picks will be shelved. Seems almost heartbreaking, considering it took me months and months to make both, and a TON of large stones and scales!

So either I swallow the loss, farm ToD for encrusted ring, add exceptional Str to it, and go 18/2 Barb/Ftr and contiune to improve my gear,

or I break out those lit II picks again and go Assassin rogue with decent Str, decent dex, and maxed out con with Toughness feat and racial toughness enhancements, and extra con with WF.


The decided factor will ultimately which 36 pointer will deal better DPS??

I appreciate all the build masters out there crunching some ddo math and tell me which toon will have the edge.

Which ever way I go, the races will be set in stone:
Horc if I go barb
WF if I go Rogue.

Cheers!
