Shifter 30 / Druid 6 / Blackguard 4 (Risen Lord) (legacy)

A build written by Riversilk, first published 10-NOV-2024. A build is one player's opinion, not a rule. Nothing on this page is checked against the game's code the way the rest of the wiki is, and a rebalance can leave a build behind without anybody editing it.

Marked legacy by its author: it was written for an older version of the server and is kept for reference rather than for following.

ClassesDruid(6), Blackguard(4), Shifter(30)

AbilitiesSTR: 20, DEX: 8, CON: 14, WIS: 12, INT: 8, CHA: 14 (26)

Here is a Free Pure Shifter Risen Lord build, focused on CHA: final charisma is 40 (When shifted the race modifications to abilities are not applied) thus giving a passive +15 to all saves.

Notes

It has Divine Might for +15 Negative damage on all attacks, Divine Shield (The build already has +10 dodge AC from Risen Lord form, +4 from Haste, so basically it would be +6 AC), with 3 minutes uptime on both feats. Having 20 base STR allows the use of a 2 handed weapon + shield, for example Purple Scyte for the +20 AB (the build has Exotic proficiency) and a defensive shield. / Note: to be able to equip a Large weapon with a Shield you need a Large skin, there are some in the skin shop that go as low as 100 Skin Tokens (i.e. Trolls, Slaadi, Stingers, Formians), which will be easy to acquire Start with CN alignment for the Druid. At level 13 go kill Zhengi children (will shift you toward evil) until you’re CE, so you can take levels in Blackguard.
