[QUOTE="DracoSuave, post: 5606622, member: 71571"] One: Screw Admixture. Why are you adding lightning to powers when you should already have nothing but lightning powers? Two: Storm Soul Sorcerer. Mark of Storm going into Lyrander Storm Rider, which is kapowerful with Storm Sorcerers. Under the old keyword inheritance rules, you used to be able to use a Lightning weapon to -add- keywords to a power. Under current keyword inheritance rules, because the powers won't deal their old damage types, they cease to have those keywords. Ask your DM which rule he's using. This is important because if he doesn't use the current version, then you can make all your powers Thunder powers, grab a Lightning weapon, and you can use Echoes of Thunder and Oncoming Storm as your own version of frostcheese. Because every power has the thunder kieyword, you'll get a damage bonus to powers when you hit. Because every power has the lightning keyword, you'll get an attack bonus to powers when you hit. Heroic level frostcheese! If you can't do that, ignore the Echoes/Ongoing, and make all your powers lightning. Also, if you're going to get Raging Storm, you'll be better with Tempest Magic which gives the damage bonus, but gives even more damage bonus when you're bloodied. When it comes to lightning and thunder, sorcerer really is the best class to bring to the table. With a dragonborn, instead of Storm, go Dragon soul (lightning of course), and take the feat Ancient Soul. This will make your breath arcane. Which... is sick. Oh, when you get hit with lightning it also recharges your breath but that's some other thing that's situational and not the point when your breath is arcane and you're a sorcerer. [/QUOTE]
