My FvS Build - if anyone wants it lol

so we all - mainly blib - had a laugh at my first attempt to build a decent FvS, although since the respec to mainly healing based spells and a re-jig of wepon proficiency its actually turing out to be pretty damned useful

details to follow if anyone wants them ie feats, enhancements, items, spells etc

so far:

Female Drow 32pt FvS - Shortsword and Shield Heal Build. Lvl 10 at time of writing

HP - 207
SP - 1162
BAB +7
Spell Res 19
AC 35 unbuffed
Fire res 20 + Acid res 20 unbuffed

i may have started ddo life as a barb but FvS is officially amazing to play

<pedantic> 32pt drow eh? </pedantic>

Play nicely Tidy!!!

lol yh didnt even notice - it kind of is tho just the extra 4points are already allocated

nice use of the /pedantic switches tho - i might even write some html for that for you lol

Will try to be as gentle as possible mate

Now I know you will want to build your own build, but try this and when u have an idea what you want it to do exactly then build your own.

Bollocks. 450+ hp is for dweebs who melee. Healers don't need silly hp, but they do have to be survivors.

At end game you can easily be hit for over 300 hp and sometimes over 400, you aint going to heal yourself if you are dead. 450 is considered the safe spot, I think 400 may suffice. But on thing is for sure 207 is way to squishy!

Oh and testicles to you good sir!

Cough Cough!!!

And I've been hit with spells that do over 500hp damage well before end game. And I died. Big surprise. But it's rare, and for those healers that can survive that: well done. Go to the top of the class.

There's always going to be something that can kill you dead instantly. Such as standing anywhere near your party's barbarian, sorceror or rogue. Keep out of the way, don't do any damage, don't pick up aggro, have high will and fort saves, diplo anything that comes near or just plain run away.

But then, I don't run with the Hunters of the world, and I don't intend to.

In any case, I looked at that build. 457hp - that's at level 20 and comprises 160 base, 155 from enhancements and eq (no need to reroll to get those, but good luck with all that crafting!), 42 from feats (again, not a problem and 20 of those are from Heroic Durability), and 100 from con bonus (at level 20!).

I mean, for that 100hp con bonus you only need to roll 12 at creation. A +2 tome and a +6 item (and by level 20 you'd have both unless you've been boosted) and you're there.

I wa with RIGHT up to the end of the first paragraph, then u starting grown up DDO speak andlost me is it fun to play....no=reroll! is it fun to play? yes= cool get on with it. wil it annoy Blib yes= play it every night

Yup. When calculating hit points for lvl 20 its the norm to include everything. so every race can add toughness 23 and a minimum 2 racial enhancements = 43. Throw in minos, con, gfl and its not hard to ease past 300. FFS if i can break 400 with emi a drow rogue then its not hard.
