[QUOTE="keeper216, post: 6339894, member: 6777522"] So I have developed a gish and I want everyones opinion. I warn you this build has some controversial things in it. Race: Naenhoon Illumian Class: Dread Necromancer 8/ Abjurant Champion 4/ Incantatrix 8 At 1st level take two flaws: pathetic (-2 to an attribute, con), meager fortitude (-3 fort) 1st: Extend spell, Magical Training, Versatile Spellcasting 3rd: Smiting Spell 6th: Combat casting 9th: Persistent Spell 12th: Iron Will 13th: Bonus feat Quicken spell 15th: Life sense 18th: Rapid metamagic At third level become a necropolitan with a dread necromancer of 8 level with fell energy and casts consecrate on a altar. This give me 1d12+8 hp/hd plus +4 strength and dexterity. The trick would be finding a dread necromancer with fell energy and that can cast consecrate but as a Illumian i can ask around the gravewisper cabals (which I will belong to one) so that shouldn't be that much of a probably. Persist wrathstrike. Research mage armor into a abjurant spell instead of a conjuration spell. With shield and the now abjurant spell mage armor equals a 16 AC bonus. This build won't wear armor. Wrathstrike gives me so that I don't need a high BAB. With an item to gives me more turning/rebukes I can persist haste. I don't know what the normal feat at level 18 will be. Might go Fell animate or Fell energy. Just to pump up my undead minions. Which I won't have many, mostly just what is at the beginning of the dungeon and if they are still alive by the end I will order them to bury themselves in the ground until farther notice. This character will be lawful neutral. This character will be wielding a Greatsword. Those who hate the rule compendium won't approve of this build because of the magical training versatile spellcaster combo. Some will hate on Incantatrix but don't see how this class can even be broken in any combo. Just to be sure its the Incantatrix from magic of Faerun that people have a problem with right? [/QUOTE]
