Yeah, alignment restrictions prevent it, but from a standpoint of benefits gained vs benefits from other choices given up, I don't think it would make any sense...

Hey guys thanks for all the help this is the build I'm gonna roll Ranger18/Monk 2 (Ranger 1-6/Monk 7,8/9-20 Ranger) Str 14+6 (Item) = 20 Dex 18+3 (Elf Dex) +2(Ranger Dex) +5(Lvl Boost) +6(item)= 34 Con 12+6(item) = 18 Int 10 Wis 15 +6(item) +1(Monk Wis) = 22 Cha 8 Hoping for Wis/Dex tomes *Will most likely be wearing robes/outfits to avoid dex limit+being uncentered Feats: Favored Enemies: Undead, Evil Outsider, Constructs, Elementals...

You want Tempest 3. Barbarian gives you +10% running speed. Fighter gives you extra feats and +1 Str an level 2. Maybe Ranger18/Barb1/Fighter1. Extra feat and +10% running speed. Barb2 sounds fun. Fighter2 is more efficient. You can never go wrong with more feats and Strength.

I just wanted to know if Rapiers count as "over-sized" as I can't find this defined anywhere. According to what Samadhi and Braegan said, I'd assume it'd be safe to switch out, and Rapiers, not being marked Light, do indeed...

As it is, he has the highest survivability a non-healing non-AC toon could hope to ask for. then drop toughness....

Quote: Originally Posted by lyeman No, you only get the highest bonus; different bonuses will stack, however, e.g. fire arrows on a shock bow, but not shock arrows. You really should try to use a Shock bow and Shock arrows sometime. The results may shock you.

The only reason I would take this is if it was as a prereq for say tempestIII. The extra to hit is just not needed in most circumstances.
