Arti/ranger/monk end game? What would the level split be?

[Dragonhiglord]

I ran a arti/ranger/monk on a 4/6/10 spit to get my monk life taken care of, and it was great for leveling, but this was more then a year ago(I think) I actually found my self using a the heavy repeater way more then I thought I would.

I am thinking of going bladesworn with this same split. Has anyone ran this for EE stuff. It will be a completionist with +5 tome in all stats. I plan on this being my last life, and would like the best self healing archer build I can do. To jump topic a little I would love it to be a party healer with out suffering from lack of ranged dps, but I think this is a pipe dream(I ran 6 ranger/6 monk/8 cleric(again this was great to 20) would this work as a sun elf(just to start at level 15 would be the only reason)

so 16art/2ranger/2monk >6 ranger/6 monk/8 arti which gives you manyshot/10k stars/endless fusillade

If going BF, do I have to level all the way to 15 before using the lesser heart of wood +1 to switch out the pali for arti due to loosing all unused xp at time of the heart of wood?

When talking about end-game EE, reliable self healing makes things much easier. The TWF Juggernaut build is primary melee with manyshot burst DPS option for bosses so not quite what you're looking for.

A bladeforged monkcher is probably what you're looking for if you want full-time ranged char. 12mnk/6rgr/2pal easiest split and doesn't need a LR heart.

[Dragonhiglord]

Is that (12m/6ranger/2 paly) better then the 8 arti/6 ranger/6 monk or its just easier due to not having to use a heart +1? Is there a planner that has completionist with iconic? also +5 tomes.

As of right now, no. What you can do is level the build through 2 of the classes you want, then just lr the 1 level of paladin into whatever you want, and finish the last 5 levels with whatever you want. It's even easier as a 16/2/2 build.

I do remember running with an Elf version of that build, who was a full AA alongside whatever other benefits they got. That was, interesting to say the least.

If you're wanting a full on ranged build, the 12 Monk 6 Ranger 2 Paladin version is always viable and doesn't cost a heart. On the same sphere, 11 Ranger 6 monk 3 Paladin is always nice as well. Same number of feats (exactly), some self healing (this mostly applies to anything other than toaster forged) and all the TWF feats added on in case you want to add some melee flavour to your ranged mastery. Yes there is the option of getting a bit of extra ranged through fullisade, but the benefits are outweighed by the deficits. Even with the +5 tomes it's going to be hard to split your stats among everything you'll need and still come out on top. Dex for feat prereqs, wisdom (38 for 10k minimum here), Intelligence for damage to Xbows, Strength for damage with normal bows, and constitution for the obvious hitpoints.

If you're going bladetoaster, it's more or less not worth it to worry about Arti. Yes it's a nice synergy, but it's nothing more than what the Warforged got in the first place. If you want to have some fun and aren't opposed to burning that heart, a 12 Rogue 6 Monk 2 Ranger full ranged build would be....interesting.

i 100% dont think fusillade is worth 22 ap

[DrWily]

i 100% dont think fusillade is worth 22 ap
