Dusk Eclipse
2010-03-06, 10:31 PM
I came up with this skeleto build for a gestlat arena that my group is hosting
Relevant Houserules
40 point stat buy
You are given a LA +1 template or race for free (the la is considered bought)
Normal WBL
All WoTC books allowed
3rd party books on case by case basis (I believe Hyperconcious was given green light)
We start at 3000 XP over the minum XP for the level
The arena will have combats at ECL 6, 11, 16 & 20
You can take spell casting levels on the other side of the gestalt build to offset CL/ML/ETC by prestige classes even if by RAW it would not advance off-set the CL loss.
Two flaws allowed
Two traits allowed
Now my skeleton build goes:
Tiefling
Side 1
specialist transmuter 5/ Abjurant champion 5/ swiftblade 10
Banned Schools (Enchantment & Evocation)
Side 2
Dusk Blade 3/ Swashbuckler 3/ Swordsage 2/Factotum 8/ wizard 4 (taken at levels in which swiftblade looses CL)
Important feats
Expeditious Dodge
Mobility
Arcane Strike
Power Attack
EWP Elven Courtblade
Shadow Blade
Quicken spell
Explanation
with this I get 20/20 wiz spell casting, all the goodies of swiftblade and the AB champion
Duskblade is for getting channel spell which I believe is a great option at low levels.
Swashbuckler is for getting a free weapon finesse and Int to damage
Swordsage is for getting access to shadow blade feat
Factotum for Int to initiative and action economy
Right now one combo that I have deviced is casting a quicken stinking cloud and wade in with freedom of movement activated in addition with a necklace of adaptation.
I believe that with the extra XP points I can buy off one extra LA+1 so does anyone knows of a good template that might help this build?
Any Suggestion, comments, critiques for my skeleton build?
