[QUOTE="Destil, post: 4983215, member: 1980"] This is a thought experiment PC I did once. At the time he was a member of every class in the game at 30th, though there have been more classes added since then. I think it actually gives you a decent, playable PC, though picking powers and feats a little more carefully for actual play would be a good idea: ====== Created Using Wizards of the Coast D&D Character Builder ====== Jack, level 30 Half-Elf, Bard, Resourceful Magician, Eternal Seeker Bardic Virtue: Virtue of Valor Pact Initiate: Pact Initiate (dark pact) Eldritch Blast: Eldritch Blast Charisma Student of the Sword: Student of One-Handed Weapons Seeking Destiny: Keeper's Prescience FINAL ABILITY SCORES Str 13, Con 22, Dex 13, Int 16, Wis 14, Cha 26.
