    Default Highest possible Reflex?

    I'm trying to work in a good number for a reflex record on my current paladin life

    At the moment I can get it to 75 self buffed at level 14. Here is the break down:

    Base reflex saves: 6

    Dexterity Bonus:
    Regular Dexterity Bonus: +13

    Feat Bonus:
    Regular Charisma Bonus: +12
    Halfling luck: +1
    Halfling Luck (reflex) enhancement: +3
    Resillience: +4

    Enchanted bonusses:
    Item of Resistance: +5
    Resistance of good: +2
    Aura of Good: +1
    Voice of the Master trinket: +1
    Defender of Siberys: +1
    Orb +5 bonus: +5 when defending

    clickies/spells
    Recitation: +1
    Greater Heroism: +4
    Resistance spell: +3 (stacks with resistance on equipment)
    Tensers transformation: +2 (thanks to the dex boost)
    Saves boost III: +4
    haste: +1

    -lightning reflexes feat: +2
    -eldritch resistance: +1
    -Large guild slot reflex gem: +1
    -trace of madness reflex recipe: +5 (+10)
    -monk class level 2: +3 reflex
    -water stance: +2 to all saves
    =83

    so I'd like to know how I can increase this further, some things I came up with so far are the following:
    -pick Charisma ability at 16,20: +1
    -Paladin charisma III + stat tome +4: +1 (I'm at cha II and stat +3)
    -exc. charisma +2: +1
    -resistance of good III: +1 (+3)
    -Defender of Siberys II: +1 (+2)
    -paladin saves boost IV: +1 (+5)
    -alchemical potion +2: +1
    -paladin class level 14: +1 (+4)
    -rogue class level 4: +2 (+4)
    -uncanny dodge: +4
    -good luck +2 item: +1
    -Luck of heroes: +1
    -Superior Parring: +2 (+4)

    =18 selfbuffed

    Epic destiny:
    shadow dancer Tier II
    passive reflex: +6
    tumbling reflex: +9
    dexterity reflex: +1
    =16 for tier 2 ED

    =111 reflex (without slotting in other ED's)

    outside sources:
    armor of speed: +1 (does this stack?)

    Nice, only thing that comes to mind is the madness armor crafting +10 reflex so that would be +5 more.

    ah good idea! thanks

    I have to find a pic of my rogue on her first life. 64 reflex at lvl 15, but never got a pic at cap.

    my int based rogue with insightful reflexes hits high 60's without really trying. If I focused on it, I could easily hit 80+.

    hmm that statement doesn't really help me increase reflex more. I can hit low 70s at level 15 if I want to. If you can show me a screenshot I'll put you up on the record book with such a number. current record of max int bonus someone managed to get is +30 so that could make it possible to get into 80, but I'd love to see you figuring out how to put all the reflex gear + int gear on your character.

    If you do manage then a breakdown would be nice because that is information I can actually use

    Very nice reflex oh and inspire heroics and GH won't stack because the are both morale bonuses. Hope this helps.

    I think getting higher than than is very hard to go, especially with your build.

    Only things I can think of to increase the reflex save even more is by
    • Going with paladin/monk(/rogue or ranger) split (14 paladin/6 monk) for water/air stance or
    • Getting the Paladin Helf Dilentantte with a high reflex save build (where 12 monk or bard/6 ranger/2 rogue, the base reflex of 16 already shines. However, might not have good self-buffs) or
    • Going Tukaw build's monk variation (my original Tukaw has a good 35 reflex ship buffed at lvl 14) and focus on CHA.


    Anyways, way to go to get your saves that high, my fellow Argonnessenian

    Of course the trick is in knowing just how to bend the halfling...otherwise they never come back.

    ah great tip! I still got that free LR, I'm going to trade my fighter level for 2 monk levels (14pal, 4rog, 2monk), Fighter gave tower shield proficiency (for defender of siberys) + additional feat and 0 reflex save. Monk will give +3 reflex save, two feats (Combat expertise + Resillience) with +3 reflex save, +1 saves to all traps enhancement (though it doesn't display as reflex), water stance for an additional +2 to all saves

    And all that comes without gimping my toon, I can just switch on most of that stuff.

    EDIT: did not know the free LR doesn't allow class changes so now I have to wait 7 days to actually change my class -.- Either way something good did come from it, I added 1 more point to dex and cha (taken from str) and picked up resillience which now gives me 61 reflex at level 14. Technically with a trace of madness robe and monk re-spec I can get reflex to 70 at this level. My goal is reaching 100 reflex before I TR =)

    You can easily add another +12-18 reflex from epic destinies depending on how you twist them.

    Draconic: Draconic Perception will give +6 passive

    Magister: Unearthly Reactions will give +6 passive

    Shadow Dancer: Acrobatic will give +9 while tumbling (lol)

    Shadow Dancer: Lithe will give +6 passive

    Grandmaster of Flowers: Perfection of Soul will give +6 reflex


    As a pally, the Grandmaster of Flowers would be the least amount of grind to get, but you should be able to get 4 Unyielding Sentinel, 5 Grandmaster of Flowers, and 3 Shadow Dancer fairly easily just by running all the end game content a couple of times.

    A greater parrying item will give a +2 insight bonus to saves.

    A superior parrying item will give a +4 insight bonus but I've only ever seen that on ML 20+ items.

    I get the feeling I'm missing some reflex on this picture because I could get to 79 at level 15 and at level 16 I gained 2 reflex for 81 before I got my hands on the new Orb shield. With the shield I can't use monk stance losing out on 2 reflex, but I can get an addition 5 reflex from that and I managed to squeeze in +1 from the recitation spell, so I should be able to reach 85, yet I only got to 83. Maybe I'm forgetting something.

    According to current calculations I'll be able to hit 114 reflex at level 20 with just shadowdancer 2
