[QUOTE="Mercurius, post: 4985219, member: 59082"] Garthanos, that is exactly where I was heading as I read your words. Thanks for the affirmation! So I'm going with the fullblade, silly or not ;-). Another question: As a 5th level character he will have 3 feats. I'm definitely taking Improved Armor of Faith and Fullblade proficiency, but I'm trying to decide what to do with that third slot. The "conservative" choice would be to take Weapon Focus or Expertise, but I kind of want something a bit more snazzy (that is, flavorful); I'm also thinking both can wait until Paragon tier, when they garner +2 bonuses. Auspicious Lineage is also tempting for the d8 instead of d6 on A Thousand Lifetimes, but that too is just "more of the same." I was toying with an assassin character, or an avenger-assassin hybrid (which I don't think Character Builder can do), so I'm thinking about Shadow Initiate, the assassin multiclass which allows using the Shroud twice per encounter, giving an extra d6 damage which seems very good--and in a way better than Weapon Focus, at least for shorter encounters (+d6 twice per encounter vs. +1 every attack). I'm also considering Armor Proficiency in Leather, which would add 2 to the character's AC. So my thoughts so far are: Weapon Expertise or Focus, Auspicious Lineage, Shadow Initiate, Armor Proficiency (Leather). Any other ideas? [/QUOTE]
