Tring into PM and need help with past lives

[Heathir]

Howdy yall,

I am on the TR train...My final build will be a PM, human or drow is still in the air...but here is my question. Which past lives?:

I am leaning towards:

3 Sorc (1st two are Done)
3 FVS
3 Wizard
Then final on the 10th life.

Speed isnt an issue, I have Otto's to run through all of the lives, but wondering if these are the lives i should set up, or i should add others drop some..etc?

Thanks muches;-)

If you are looking to max out spell casting past life benefits you would want:

Wizard x3: +6 spell pen (Free Feat), +1 to all DC's and MM SLA (Taken Feat)
Bard x1: +1 enchantment DC (Taken Feat)
FvS x3: +3 spell pen +60 sp (Free Feat)
Cleric x3: +3 conjuration DC's (Free Feat)
Sorc x3: +3 evo DC's +60 sp (Free Feat)
Completionist: +2 int (+1 to all dc's), +2 spell power (from skill boost)

The other past lives are pretty meh for PM's imo. Barb can give you some hp and Arty for a bonus to spell craft, but neither of those benefits are worth it on their own.

On balance, cleric past lives will likely be a touch more useful than sorcerer ones - Web and Trap the Soul are very good DC spells.
