[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5902320, member: 19675"] Revised list- in the running: 1) Focused Talent: Shaper (PSP p141): Minor Creation & Shaped Consciousness as Daily powers. [COLOR="blue"]Appeals to me very much from a RP perspective, but isn't the strongest from a mechanics view. Strongest mechanical aspect- Shaped Consciousness lets me extend the range and change the angle of attack with his Psion powers, 1/day[/COLOR] 2) Sacrifice to Caiphon (DMA p50): if you miss all targets of a Warlock Encounter power, take damage equal to the power's level to recover the power. [COLOR="blue"]Tasty & powerful, but as a multiclassed PC, he won't have as many Warlock encounter powers as would be typical for his class- admittedly, only one less.[/COLOR] 3) Rod Expertise +1 Feat Bonus to implement att rolls you make with Rods (+2 at 11th, +3 at 21st), as well as +1 Shield bonus to AC & Ref. [COLOR="blue"]Boosts attacks and 2 of my defenses, including the AC I've been whining about.[/COLOR] Saving for later: 1) Bludgeon Expertise +1 Feat Bonus to hammer/mace att rolls (+2 at 11th, +3 at 21st), as well as +1 Feat Bonus to push/slides with hammers/maces. [COLOR="blue"] Synergizes with Eldritch Strike well- hold on to this for if/when I retrain Eldritch Blast to Eldritch Strike. (8th & 10th level slots already allocated.)[/COLOR] Out of the running for the foreseeable future: 1) Melee Training PHB2 p187/HotFL p316: Choose ability other than Str- make MBAs w/proficient weapon using that stat's bonus for Att rolls & 1/2 bonus for damage. [COLOR="blue"]As per multiple advisors- not needed if I retrain Eldritch Blast to Eldritch Strike.[/COLOR] 2) Durable PHB1 p194: +2 Healing Surges. [COLOR="blue"]Tough enough for now, and I get Dwarven Durability at Paragon- reconsider if/when Sacrifice to Caiphon proves too dangerous.[/COLOR] 3) Toughness PHB p201: gain +5HP per tier. [COLOR="blue"]See my notes on Durable.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
