Run-a-muck and Suck: The Vambarian build

[RavenStormclaw]

Ok because I am simply demented the new info on lamnia about Tensors and a certain zombie monk inspired me to this build. Why? I don't know but it seems fun.

Goals:
Have fun
Play a really strange build to 20 just see how good it might be
Raging Vampire swinging a big axe

The build 32 pt version half-orc male(34 pt true rez if i wait that long)
str: 189(16)
Dex: 10(10)
Con 16(16)
Intel 14(16)
Wis 8(8)
Chr 6(6)

The class split Wizard 12/ 8 barbarian
Pale-master Vampire form
Buffed in Form non raged stats using the new tensors at level 20
Str: 18 + 2orc + 3 tome + 1 level up + 4 tensors + 6 item + 2 vampire form = 36
Con: 16 +2 tome +4 tensors + 6 item +2 barbarian con = 30
Intel 14 +3 tome +3 wizard +4 level up +6 item = 30

Key feats and enhancements:
Pale master II
Shroud of the Vampire
Extend
Maximize
Spell focus necromancy
PA
Cleave
Two handed fighting
Barbarin rage enhancements
Acid and cold spell lines, some fire
Not a complete list

Play style: Two handed fighting vampire with death aura running, tensors double spell cool downs but allows casting. Primary goal meelee in my own AOE dot's such a wall of fire, and acid fog. Negative energy burst and death aura for self healing and secondary enemy damage.

Mana allowing key buffs: blur, displacement, GH, stoneskin, resists and protections

Now a question I have never ever played a barbarian so I don't know the ins and outs of this class. Any key enhancements that our must haves? It the first level of fury of the wild worth it? Any modification you would suggest..12 levels of wizard is immutable; however, I could go to 6 barbarian if another class would be worth splashing...some suggested monk but barbarian and monk our mutally exclusive.

Better to go max STR? Why the level ups into INT?

Would a vampire monk in firestance with whirlwind do more DPS? (whirling unarmed monk hits each target up to 4 times).

Str: 18 + 2orc + 3 tome + 1 level up + 4 tensors + 6 item + 2 vampire form = 36 +2 for 20 base +4 additional level ups +2 fire stance

Loose rage + frenzy (not in your STR calcs anyway), hp & BAB

Gain faster attack speed, 2[d6] base damage if 8 monk, evasion, self healing option out of form, stunning fist + blow option


Just an idea

(this life for me is a spellsword & I plan to do a lot of tensoring)

Its not a bad idea...I actually thought about that line...I just didn't want to copy cat wha'ts been done...but it is still something that is on the table.
