As much fun as 50ac on a sorc would be, what feat did he drop to take Dodge, and why not just build a self healing caster with high hp?

Also, it is now obvious that godh doesn't play in epics. Or know how to solo.

Drow - Check
6 starting CON - Check
Monk splash for wind stance (AC, duh) - Check
Von Symbiont for a pinch of DR just in case - Check

Hm...two more points of that nasty 'ol CON left...

How the heck is he getting a +10 enhancement bonus to AC?

And all that gear, including Epic gear, even wasting a feat on Dodge, and he's at a 50 AC?  What, is he optimizing for running Gianthold on his level 20 casters?

Well I fired a comment up but I bet it doesn't show up or he goes on a diatribe...

In case he does moderate it before allowing it.

And when you use the lovely air savant DoT spells, Spell Like Abilities and Area of Effect spells in an area where there is no cover. Lord have mercy on your soul in end game content as you still get smacked and turn into a soulstone.

I played a dex based caster for the first years of this game and it worked wonderful. Then the game changed and it’s changed again more recently and if you practice dex based casters you better be good at being a Benny Hill show imitater.

Because you aren’t going to live long with a 50 ac and dumped Constitution in DDO end game. I am sorry I tried it IT JUST DON’T WORK unless you got better than average skills at maneuvering your character.

You keep preaching not to follow the common wisdom of do not dump constitution. Guess what you don’t want people how to tell you to build your characters? Don’t tell us how to build ours, we have a playstyle too and it seems to get things done also.

Quote:
The best race for building a Sorcerer is the Drow Elf, especially for players who seek to maximize the Sorcerer's DPS capabilities. The reason for this is that Drow Elves receive bonuses to Charisma and Dexterity, the primary and secondary statistics (respectively) for a Sorcerer.

For a gimped version of a Sorcerer build, check out this Compendium submission: http://compendium.ddo.com/wiki/Sorcerer_101 and the subsequent discussion.

The saddest part of that entry:

Tolero apparently spent the time and effort to link that page on the New Player Guides, Community Created Guides, and Class Guides pages.  Look at the history.

No umd either....I really enjoy the self-contradications that occured at least 3 times in his sorc build.  The dex article is even more amusing....considering gear slots sacrificed....

It's everybody's favorite crazy fuck.....Snootch!

"Playing at casual difficulties where each player gets to use their abilities"

This reminds me of that type of logical fallacy that says each person is equally important, so each person's job is equally important. Or each person should perform a job according to their objective strengths, rather than their relative strengths.

I have grouped with these Lumberjack Plainsmen and while I prefer to zerg, these guys are too slow to dungeon crawl. I did a 97 minute Coal Chamber with them.

Quote:
I like arguing merely for the sake of travelling down the path of the another person's grasp of reality; each and every one of us has our own that we cling to. Ought we to question those that pose a difference of opinion in order to close, or better understand, certain gaps in judgement or certain reality?

Quote: "I think that your thoughts on those matters should be directed to the game developers" - Snootch

Response: "Not all developers are allowed to program their creations as they would prefer, higher ups tend to make the real decisions nowadays.

Quote: "After all, they programmed Dexterity into the game for people to use."
Response: Some things are merely meant to be filler (sadly), not always viable. See feat "Power Critical"

A 50 dex will be useful around normal and maybe some hard Gianthold quests, a 50 will not be useful once you start going to places such as: The Vale, Amrath, Inspired Quarter, Dreaming Dark, etc.

~~~

Blur or displacement along with Heavy Fort (till fort gets changed) are very solid ways I stay alive.

Combine the above with fire Shield scrolls and some other basic stuff, Turbine has given us an opportunity to be very self-sufficient as well as pure DPS.

I was thinking for Co6.  I mean really, unless gianthold got the nerfbat pretty hard, a lot of those mobs were hitting my ac build at 76 ac almost every hit.  So if 50 is viable there, GH got nerfed hard.  I don't think that happened though.  To be fair, it has been around two years since I had an ac build.

Since it can be soloed within 15 minutes... I must ask, why the fuck did you wait so long?  NO ONE in CK worth their weight would have.  They would of blasted through it.  So, I guess this makes Heffty correct about you.  Congratulations at admitting defeat!
