[QUOTE="killswitch, post: 5657368, member: 99637"] Hello all. I'm working on building a Blackguard / Fighter Hybrid for our upcoming LFR campaign, and need some help building up my character - here is what I was thinking so far: [B]Race:[/B] Vryloka [B]Starting Stats (after racial): [/B] 18 STR 16 CON 10 DEX 7 INT (dm approved) 10 WIS 16 CHA [B]Training:[/B] Athletics, Endurance, Intimidate [B]Feats:[/B] 1. Hybrid Talent (Fighter Combat Talent - Battlerager Vigor) 2. Weapon Proficiency (Execution Axe) 4. Armor Proficiency (Heavy Plate) 6. Power Attack 8. Weapon Focus (Axe) 10. Weapon Expertise (Axe) 11. Reserve Maneuver 12. Lasting Frost 14. Wintertouched 16. ? 18. ? 20. ? 21. Martial Mastery 22. Divine Mastery 24. Axe Mastery 26. Cleaving Axe 28. ? 30. ? [B]Powers (At-Will):[/B] Brash Strike (Fighter) / Retrained to Cleave at level 11 Ardent Strike (Paladin) [B]Powers (Encounter):[/B] 1. Hack and Hew (Fighter) 3. Dread Smite (Paladin) 7. Blade of Light (Paladin) 11. Reaping Lunge (Dread Reaper - Reserve Maneuver in Bloody the Field 13. Appalling Crunch (Fighter) Replaces Hack and Hew 17. Minotaur Charge (Fighter) Replaces Blade of Light [B]Powers (Daily):[/B] 1. Blood of the Mighty (Paladin) 5. Dizzying Blow (Fighter) 9. Thicket of Blades (Fighter) 15.

Bolstering Stride (Fighter) [B]Paragon Path:[/B] Dread Reaper That's as far as I've gotten so far. The point I'm trying to hit on is dealing as much damage as possible within this class, while being very survivable - hence all of the THPs from everywhere. I'm not too sure on some of my feats, and the holes there as well, and if my powers are the most damaging...or even if the Paragon Path is the right one. But I really like the theme. I'm not a huge powergamer, but I would like some help optimizing the damage output and tankability of this build. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
