Toon build discussion

[alasteir]

Hello all,

I am starting this thread in order to generate some discussion on some of the more interesting (and effective.....) toon builds on the NS server. I have been playing on the NS server (primarily 'Reflections') for about eight months now and I really must compliment all of the devs and dms on their diligence, creativity, and hard work. Thank you. I have seen quite a few impressive builds on the 'Reflections' server (Arsenals, Nog, and G'of to name a few), and I was wondering what other insight, players, dms, or devs might care to share about PVP, PVM, or support build toons?

Here are a few builds that I am contemplating on, (or currently working on):

Bard/SD/Ranger (Githerazai-sp?) 21/10/9 is the plan. Dex & finesse build. Obviously, a high AC, but will this toon wimp out on the AB/damage side?

Bard/RDD/Ranger (Drow) currently working on this one... 21/10/9 is kind of the current plan, however, I may trade some ranger lvls for bard lvls, in order to make a better party support toon. Dex, finesse, and charisma will be the focus, regardless of the level distribution.

COT/Cleric (Aasimar) 20/20. This is actually my buddy's build. Seems like a monster with all of the potential divine damage, however, I may be missing something.

Cleric (Earth Genasi) 40 pure build. Travel & Earth domains. Currently working on this one. Seems like I will have a hard time screwing this one up!

Thank you for your input in advance!

check the News and Announcements (towards the beginning) for changes to bard song. 21 lvls wont get you much at all

If you're looking for an effective build, just make a Shifter.

best build in the server : halfling barb / wiz, with focus in divination and abjuration.

I would suggest joining one of the guilds or clans of Aetheria. There are many.... many possibilities and, in many ways finding a niche in a party is more important than finding that perfect build.
