Avenger/Wizard Swordmage/Artificer Paladin/Warlock Warlord/Seeker Avenger/Wizard has good stat synergy and some nice versatility with ranged AOEs and melee single target. At paragon, probably take favored soul to fly while dropping wizard bombs, and then dive into melee when it's down to one...

IMO you should never see +/- stat mod to attacks or defenses. It's ok to use stat mods for damage, DR, movement, forced movement, etc... but attacks and defenses are intended to have very finely tuned scaling. I'm ok with +/- 1 till end of encounter or + 1/2 stat mod on next attack.

I think you guys are looking at this the wrong way. DIS is the spellcaster's answer to Iron Armbands of Power. Inherent rules don't allow the IAoP, I think... so DIS should be useless too.

Aren't Eladrin Fey? I don't think it means they have to step through the feywild... just that they have the fey subtype. I only played Dark Sun through the cRPGs... which, although buggy, were a lot of fun. You *could* play as a cleric, but it was a cleric of an element rather than of a god. I...

2x shielding swordmage is especially brutal with this, since both can use things like frigid blade and luring strike to keep the wrong mark adjacent. It essentially shuts down (at least) two enemies.

Fully agree on this one. Might even be better in some ways than either base class. The avenger striker bonus and the monk striker bonus have exclusive conditions - avenger needs you to have only one target next to you, and monk needs you to have more than one target next to you. Depending on...

On the other hand, there are some hybrid classes that I think lose too much! Runepriest - doesn't get rune of protection/destruction Rogue - doesn't get a build option Avenger - doesn't get its censure Paladin - neutered mark Assassin - not even a great class to start I'm not familiar with all...

Some classes lose a lot more than others. Pairing a class which *needs* hybrid talent with one which really doesn't allows for some pretty good options. Unfortunately, most of the better options at this point are somewhat exploitative in nature (avenger/seeker) and will probably be errata'd...

As I understand it, the first two articles have got some serious problems too. The first one at least, the demo links are truncated and don't work. It's a real shame, because that API would make developing a platform neutral character builder that works within the subscription framework a...

Using it with a MBA that slides enemies out of melee works though. (i.e. warlock with eldritch strike)

I do hope they nerf slashing, but not as far as some people want. (Once per round). I'd be ok with an eladrin swordmage|warlock(feytouched) slashing on ethereal sidestep to disengage, then slashing again on a fey charge to attack the target, and then slashing one more time on the immediate...

"Sort of is" because imo you only get the full benefit out of ragespell if you are a hybrid. I haven't looked in depth at the other two.

As much as I loved the feychargers... keeping fey charge from working with other fey step feats was a necessary change.

Dragonfoe Ragespell sort of is, as is the Underchasm Darkwatcher and Tharos Imposter.

There's a second group up already. I think I may have missed some... most notably rogue|ranger, so I might have to add a third group.

Group 1 is here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-discussion/275418-hybrid-championship-round-1-group-1-a.html I've added all the suggestions from the nominations, and a few others I thought might be interesting. Please vote on all of the hybrid combos you like, in this thread and the other...

Alright, I've added all the suggestions from the nominations, and a few others I thought might be interesting. Please vote on all of the hybrid combos you like, in this thread and the other. The top 5 votes from both threads combined will go on to a final round. Vote based on both mechanical...

Gentlemen, Hybrids have been around for a while now. The recent rash of tourney threads seems to have briefly died down so... I think it's time for a hybrid tourney. The trick is, there are *way* too many options if we just use every a|b combination out there. Solution: Nominate any hybrid...

Correction added. If you have another way to mark by virtue of being a defender/defender hybrid, you can shuffle your marks around at the cost of your minor actions.
