[QUOTE="Patlin, post: 3695293, member: 17264"] I've got a number of combinations I'd like to try, but for a powergamed melee destroyer, I think I'd want a warforged warblade/artificer. The artificer offers some good long term buffs, the ability to repair damage to yourself (and other warforged, if any) and the ability to do a variety of usefull things outside of combat. If I was going this route with the stats you list, I'd put the 18 in intelligence, with the two 16s in strength and charisma. You would get 8 skills per level: Search, Disable Device, and Use Magic Device to keep the artificer happy, Tumble and other discipline related skills to keep your warblade side happy. With maxed out search and disable device and an 18 intelligence, you've got trapfinding covered for your party... and the searcher out front is also the tank! The thing I like about this combo is that the artificer really doesn't compete with the warblade in terms of use of actions in combat. Many artificer buffs have durations such that you can put them up well in advance of combat, including goodies such as magic vestment as a first level infusion. [/QUOTE]
