Monk6/Fighter8/WM16, the only right way about it.

Why dex based on a scimitar?

Actually, I think I'll try going for epic dodge. I really want something untouchable in melee. I always forget the prereqs for epic dodge, so I'll have to look that up. Falling Spider wrote: Why dex based on a scimitar? Well, the scimmy has a nice crit range, and it's unusual for a monk. I know some 'real' monks use swords, so I thought it would be cool.

It's just, you can't finesse scimitars, is all. Which is why I'm confused.

If you want the same crit ratio, you can use the rapier, which you -can- weapon finesse, methinks.

You can't get the Con requirement any other way.

You need both wis, dex and STR which leaves very little room in your gearscore As for gearing, it wouldn't be any different from 21/7/2. The combination in general is tricky to work out I admit, but the level setup is a bit moot as you'd want the same things with roughly the same amount of base feats/skills/saves anyway. Having a scroll monkey to read you the bedtime story of Owl's Insight may get a bit arduous at times, but nonetheless, with diligent farming and finetuning you should land on decent enough readings. Didn't Tormak play one of these babes, btw? He should have an idea if no-one can bother with the math. _________________ UCE THIS, YOU COW.

He did but he wore armor. He got saves and ikd out of it. He was a soul knife so the monk stuff was an rp use I think.

I'll post the full build plan, but how viable is 25 wiz/4 fighter/1 Rogue for a spellsword knight? It's for a D&D friend I'm getting in to Amia.
Looking for EWF: Halberd, EMD Construct with ESF and epic mage armour. Mainly asking for viability and ability management than a whole build right now.
Thanks!

If Geared Guardian is your beefy tank EMD, what is the Ancient Air Elemental?

All EMD summons are tanks, the Air Elemental fills the Crowd Control position with it's Stun Aura.

Theorizing a disciple of Mask, using monk, shadowdancer, and divine champion. Issue I'm having is how worth no AB/Damage the epic shadowlord is. Either I go 7 Monk/3 Champion/20 SD, or I try and at least make it functional by itself as.. what, 8 monk/16 SD/6 Champion? But I figure the damage is substandard either way. Are the champion levels even worth it?

Take it from someone with 20 SD, unless you're really wanting SD for the deeper Shadowdancer and Mask opportunities, Epic Shadowlord is only as good as it can be provided it's not fighting anything with NEP. I don't know much about the proposed build as that's quite an alien combination for me, but I can say do not rely on your Shadow too much. It's good in PvM but again, anything that uses NEP or that can out DPS your Shade is going to give you trouble, but damn is it good at epic dungeons such as Spires. _________________ "Operating in the border between light and darkness, shadowdancers are nimble artists of deception.

I already have a mage who can wear all armors but i want to make him even more well defended. I have been told that taking a few lvs of palemaster would grant me the improved defenses i desire. Also the palemaster class would fit and compliment my wizard's style and personality nicely. Should i do this?

So is there a possibility to combine a SD with a shifter? Obviously I would have to have a spell caster at non epic levels. Any ideas?

Third class would have to be druid, as it is required for shifter as far as I remember (but its been years since I made a shifter, so...).

Problem there is that it's 7 monk/rogue/tumble class to SD, meaning you need 7 of it since Champion's got that 7 bab requirement. I'm actually starting to think it flat wouldn't work.

4 AB would be nice, given the advice up there that the 20 shadow isn't worth it, which is kind of sad.

I find there is a niche of RP opportunity if you delve beyond the 6 or 10 SD levels most builds have. I have a few ideas in mind to make my shade more effective personally. _________________ "Operating in the border between light and darkness, shadowdancers are nimble artists of deception.

Are handaxes 'good'?
I've seen them in builds, but are they only really good for specialty builds like Dev Critters or WMs? Or are they pretty nice for dual-wielding STR builds? Considering it on a dual-wield Dev Crit build because I want to use something different and have never used them on a char.
Is there a fine selection of them? I know there's always a ton of swords and stuff, but like with certain weapons the selection is very lacking.

Yes, they are dandy on a dual wield dev crit built.
They are 1d6 instead of 1d8 but you are using little weapons instead of medium weapons so you are not penalized as much for dualwielding. Allowing you to retain your AB (mostly) at a cost of not very little damage. They work great for small sized characters as well.
And there is a very respectable variety of handaxes.

If one wished to cover most of the bases in PvE for Favored Enemies, would this list and order suffice?
Reptilian Humanoids, Giants, Undeads, Outsiders, Aberrations

Reptilian Humanoids is a very good choice for PvE: Kobold, Troglodyte, Lizardman, Yuan Ti, Sahuagin, and the odd snake in the desert. (Kobolds not so much now since they got swamped by the Goblin Horde)
For PvE I would go: Reptilian, Human, Undead, Abberation.
For PvP: any race playable you think you will fight.

It's my understanding that:
Reptillian: mentioned
Giants: Trolls, frost/fire giants
Undead: Several places for them, including Manor
Outsiders: Abyss
Aberrations: Illithids/beholders
Figured that covered pretty much all of the major hunting grounds. Though I can see the swing towards Elves and Humans cause of the drow thralls and human spawns.

Human is the most played race next to Genasi :then Elves i think.The devs probably have numbers.
Outsiders also incorporate the Genasi, tiefling and aasimar subrace.
Human pve is awesome. Especially leveling up. Brigands;Barbarians ; 50%If fod spawns are humans , rest shapeshifters , The list is long

Yeah that's very true. I am mostly considering the FavEnemies for PvE, but PvP ability is nice, too. I was actually able to squeeze in another Favored Enemy in epic :3 Here goes: Quote: Ranger(25), Fighter(4), Rogue(1), Human
STR: 10
DEX: 16 (24)
CON: 14
WIS: 14
INT: 14
CHA: 8
01: Ranger(1): Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus: Handaxe, Favored Enemy: Reptilian Humanoids
03: Ranger(3): Knockdown
05: Ranger(5): Favored Enemy: Humans
06: Ranger(6): Alertness
09: Ranger(9): Improved Critical: Handaxe
10: Ranger(10): Favored Enemy: Undeads
12: Ranger(12): Improved Knockdown
15: Ranger(15): Blind Fight, Favored Enemy: Elves
18: Ranger(18): Skill Focus: Spot
20: Ranger(20): Favored Enemy: Aberrations
21: Ranger(21): Bane of Enemies
23: Ranger(23): Favored Enemy: Outsiders
24: Fighter(1): Epic Skill Focus: Spot, Epic Weapon Focus: Handaxe
25: Fighter(2): Armor Skin
27: Fighter(4): Weapon Specialization: Handaxe, Epic Weapon Specialization: Handaxe
30: Ranger(25): Great Dexterity I, Epic Prowess
Craft Armor 8(10), Craft Weapon 8(10), Discipline 33(33), Heal 18(20), Listen 33(37), Search 33(35), Spot 33(50), Tumble 30(37), UMD 26(25), remaining skillpoints 5 Want to make sure I covered everything. I found two spare feats in pre-epic so I tucked in Alertness and SF: Spot. Not entirely sure on Alertness, but the base 50 Spot at the end is nice. Plus the Listen bonus helps with invisible peoples and such. Grabbed the 6 Favored Enemies for maximum lulz and slaying, plus dat 24 DEX and such for AC and AB, along with Armor Skin and Epic Prowess. The 10 STR might suck, though, and I suppose I could knock CON to 12 and bump STR to 12, or flop them to 14/10. 356 HP is nice, but 296 is damn good, too.

You want 26 DEX. Otherwise you can go STR instead. You need every piece of ac you can get a hold of. You will also sit VERY low on AB
26 + 12 = 38 = 14 Mod = 14 AC + Shield (5+3) 22
Full plate (8+1) + Tower shield (5+3) = 17 AC.
the AC difference should be as wide as possible
In terms of AB
25+5(GMW)+3(EWF) +1(Prowess) + 14 MODIFIER = 48.
Misc
Take Thoughness instead of Alertness if you feel you are low on HP.
I would also reccomend Great FORT or Dodge (+1AC) instead of Skill focus: spot.
You gain so little from those feats.. So little  Quote: Plus the Listen bonus helps with invisible peoples and such. Listen doesnt help. =(

I'd switch epic prowess for another favored enemy.
Given I know you aren't really the biggest fan of min-maxing and you probably won't play the character the Dex is fine, I wouldn't worry about going to 26.

Mages that are invis don't normally take MS, so Listen will let them be 'seen' (heard). Mages that do invest won't invest that much (normally) so they will still be 'seen' (heard). Also, SF: Spot is useful for gearing Spot to see epic sneakers. If I recall correctly, you want to hit 100 Spot so you can see anyone and anything.

Invisibility somehow bypasses listen unless you're within whisper range, unfortunately.
