    Default A Forged Sorc/PLD

    I need 1 more Sorceror Past life.

    I was thinking about a doing a 17Sorc/3PLD split for some nuking and tanky-ness.

    Playstyle would be nukes for rooms, and DoTs for Reapers/bosses. Was not planning on meleeing. Just nuke, put up a persistant spell and turtle up.

    Here is what Split/AP would get me.

    3 levels of PLD and 13 points into Sacred Defender gets me:
    Tanky-ness
    +14 Saves, 11 from Divine Grace and an additional 3 from Stance
    +25 MRR and PRR
    +25% competence bonus in HP

    I am unsure about Warforged vs Bladeforged for this.

    The bladeforged effectively gets +2 CHR due to race.

    I have 7 racial AP, but I think this could work with zero if someone wanted to try.
    Here are my main splits for racial AP.

    Could do 11 AP into Warforged and that gets me the Repair Amp, and Arcane Spell Failure (but could drop this if I go really hard into EK), Racial Fortification, but the big one is "Memories of Last War: Arcane Slinger" which is +25 Determination bonus to Universal Spell Power
    Could do 14 AP for a total of 12 more PRR
    Could do 16 AP for another 8 PRR from "Memories of Last War: Spellcarved Soldier" +8 PRR and +8 AC
    I think I could play with these AP once I am level 18 to decide whether the extra into WF are worth it or not.

    If I went Bladeforged:
    I would put 11 AP into BF for the Tier 3 Reconstruct SLA, which would give me 2 Reconstructs.
    The Addy Body upgrade for Bladeforged is 2 AP per upgrade, vs the 1 AP per upgrade for WF. I view this as "this is only worth it on WF"

    So if the spit point is 11 AP.
    I am picking between 25 Universal Spell Power (WF) and Reconstruct SLA (BF)

    Damage: I was leaning Earth Savant
    Was looking at 37 to 41 AP into ES. Unsure if I will take Conjuration Focus for 2 AP or Earthgrab
    I want T5 Acid Blast SLA, Awaken Elemental Weakness, Conjuration Focus (could skip this if needed), Elemental Diversification: Flame

    More Tanky-ness:
    The rest of my AP into EK
    This is where I need to decide on spending 37-41 into ES and how many racial AP are worth it.
    EK would mainly get me: some ASF, MRR, a +30 Action Boost to Spell Power, Arcane Barrier (this helps a lot to reduce incoming dmg, and it also alerts you that you are dying)

    I would plan on using the AP at the end of Heroic Leveling into the durability stuff. I want the Acid Sorc stuff for fast leveling.

    Default

    Stats/Skills/Feats

    STR 10
    DEX 8
    CON 16-18
    INT 12
    WIS 6
    CHR max this 16-18 depending on WF vs BF

    Skills

    Concentration Max
    Spellcraft Maxed
    UMD some (high CHR helps a lot and CHR skills items help a lot)
    Could do Intimidate if thats your play style
    1 into Tumble and Perform (someone told me you need 1 point into perform to unlock the Sonic Power from CHR skills items)
    Balance as much as you can spare (hate being tripped/knocked down)

    Feats:
    1 Maximize
    3 Empower
    6 Enlarge
    9 Quicken
    12 Wiz PL
    15 Heighten
    18 Addy Body

    Maybe would use a different order of feats to get tanky sooner with Addy body?

    Epic Feats: pick what you like
