So, a crazy idea.

I have been running a pure Bard for the last 6 months, and experimented with CC, swash dps, and a freezer swash. But after TR'ing into a Cleric, I got to thinking. What would the outcome be if i rolled up a 15 Cleric, 3 Bard, 2 Fighter? Vistani dagger swash, with the added benefit of follower of Vol, Holy Sword, Vistani tree, Swashbuckling? It would have dangerous healing and Melee Power galore, the doublestrike and dodge would be nice, with enough fort bypass, it should be very nice. I figure going Dex based, weapon finesse,and using Different Tack to get Dex to damage. I already have both Pain and Sufering, and Van Richtens cane, and plenty of the top end raid and crafted gear available. What say you, oh builders and players galore?

Haven't thought much about it, but: holy sword, swashbuckler, and vistani's one with the blade are all competence bonuses and won't stack.

Hi OP. Xenon211 did something similar here ( https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthrea...An-easy-fvs-PL ) but with FvS. I ran a life of this and it was great fun, may do another later.
