[QUOTE="kylowinter, post: 5715260, member: 6684472"] So I'm introducing a new character to a campaign starting at level 5 (my old character died). I'm thinking of going for Human Hybrid Warlock(Infernal)/Swordmage(Assault). I have already read through [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-discussion/274754-hybrid-warlock-swordmage.html"]this thread[/URL] but figured instead of reviving it, I'd just make a new one. So far I have: str 10 con 20 (+2 racial, +1 at lvl 4) dex 12 (+1 at lvl 4) int 16 wis 10 cha 8 Skills: Arcana, Athletics or Endurance, History, Insight At Wills: Eldritch Strike Hellish Rebuke Sword Burst Lvl1 Encounter Chains of Levistus Lvl1 Daily Frost Backlash Lvl2 Utility Charm of Hearts Lvl3 Encounter Dimensional Vortex Lvl5 Daily Tyrannical Threat Feats: Versatile Expertise (Heavy Blades, Heavy Blades) Skill Power: Arcane Mutterings Hybrid Talent (Infernal Pact Boon) White Lotus Riposte Starting Magic Items: Armor of Dark Majesty (Leather) +1 Fey Strike Broadsword +1 Iron Armbands of Power +1 I built this character around using mostly warlock powers during my active turn and all the swordmage powers are either minor actions, immediate reactions/interrupts, or passives so that I wouldn't have to rely too much on my intelligence stat. I also plan on taking the Academy Master Paragon Path. I am building my dexterity up to 13 so that I can take Dual Implement Spellcaster at lvl8. And since my dex will be at 13, would it be wise to mutliclass into assassin then get the cursed feat shadow giving me the warlock's shadow walk feature? My only problem with this would be moving 3 squares every round to activate the feature. My AC is pretty low due to not having shadow walk or swordmage warding which makes me fear OAs. Any other suggestions that you might have regarding feats, powers, and items? [/QUOTE]
