Shield Toting Tosser: Throwing build primary melee
Dec 21st, 2011 at 9:54pm
Print Post  
with the implementation of the new crafting system decent throwing weapons seem to be much more obtainable without waiting for a rare drop or dumping a bunch of GS components into crafting one. so it led to me to consider how you would go about creating a toon that used throwing weapons as its primary offensive means. seeing as throwing weapons are a one-handed affair, the build might as well go after tower shields for some nice damage mitigation.

then throw in 2 rogue levels so i can bring trap skills to the table.  plus the 2 rogue levels gives me evasion, UMD for self-healing via scrolls, and a little bit of sneak attack damage.


sorry about the code not working, but im not editing the whole damn thing:

thoughts, critiques, suggestions?

this is only a first pass at this build.  i still need to wait a bit to get my crafting levels up a bit higher and compile some craftable returning throwers as id like to have a nice set of debuffing throwers to go along with damagers.  there is probably a better feat order to go with, but everything listed is what id like to include.

If you want to troll, you should be a bit less obvious than a thrower build.

Novelty would be one word for it.

Well, if you want to go gimp, at least go full gimp. Shuriken-specced Drow FTW!

Any Thrower Build without a high Wisdom, High Strength, Brutal Throw, and 10,000 Stars is Auto-Fail.

You know, many shields are curved.

That means that you can use them to make a uber salad tossing build.

That sounds right up your alley.

Hmmm...I was not aware of that. But so what?

Just make a bunch of +5 Holy Returning Shuriken of Greater X Banes and you have something just as good if not better.

Well then work on your Cannith crafting. You don't need any packs for that.

No comment on the salad tosser build? It has great DPS (dicks per second).

The build you have listed will work just fine except for one thing.  The rate of fire on thrown weapons sucks ass.

As soon as you add a few feats to bring the rate of fire on your thrown weapons up to melee attack rate, then your build will be outstanding.  If there are any feats that can actually do that, let me know.
