FvS Build for Madrygan

OK, I killed my first attempt at a Melee FvS. I was having fun withit, But my playstyle just couldnt get into it. I wasnt looking forward to end game. A Divine Caster without Blade Barrier is just wrong to me....

So after much tweaking of stats and Cruching all reasonable numbers I think I finally got it. Full TWF with a Solid Wisdom for good Spell DC's. Room for al the improtant Healing Spells as well. it'll cost me a bunch of Large scales to equip properly, but overall, I think I like this concept a lot more than my original.

Enjoy.

Lol this is prob why my builds are poop, I don't plan them, I figure it out as I go

So do I

Thanks for the build Blib, just started a FvS with level 1 to help my wife level up her dps toons and will try to consider some aspects of your build.

Problem still is that I'm missing 1 or 2 features when going pure FvS with an elf.
"Must taken" features for me are:
- 2wf
- Improved 2wf
- Greater 2wf
- extend (bb!)
- maximize (bb and generally dps enhancement)
- quicken (believe me, a must in shavarath quests and in dangerous situations)
- Improved crit slashing (must take especially when using scimitars on an elf).
- Toughness (elves are damn to weak and too many points went into str, dex and wisdom to have enough for con)

That are 8 features and you will get only 7 (Level 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18).
As I see it you have 3 choices on a really good FvS dps build:

- go for FvS 18/Monk 2 to focus on ac
- go for FvS 18/Fighter 2 to get haste attack clickie +15% and 2 more features
- go for FvS 20 including DR10/Silver and free heal spell

I still think pure FvS with DR10 is great and ac is a bit overrated in the game. If you facing a goddamned lvl 30 demon a few more ac won't help you, DR10 would do better but nevertheless pray to your gods ;-)
Fighter will give u +15% dps (only for 20 seconds but this is nearly like tempest ranger) and another 2 features like improved crit slashing (loads more dps due to crit range enhancement) and another toughness or power critical, think this improves your toon perfectly and gives you a chance to kill the foes even before they hit you ;-)

Any comments are welcome and @Tamtam and Nev: well in most cases we all have enough experience to level our toons without planning but favored soul is really a bit complicating. Whatever way you choose you always have a feeling you did something wrong lol
Additionally planning a toon with the character planner or on paper is effective and you now germans do love effectiveness - especially when starting from scratch on a new server
If you have any questions about any builds however feel always free to ask me in game or post in forum here
