Combat Stats

AB: 30 BAB + 18 STR Modifier + 5 Weapon + 4 Weapon Focus, Epic Weapon Focus, Superior Weapon Focus + 8 BG Bull STR + 3 Aid/Bless/Premonition = 68 AB ( +16 from +20 cap ), add Tenser and it goes to 72 AB hitting the +20 cap.

AC: Irrelevant, this is a pure hitter.

Attacks per Round (APR): 4 + 1 haste + 2 BG Bull STR + 1 Tenser = 8

Recommended Gear:

Armor: Corroded Banded Mail for 3 Tenser uses a day. ( Baragor's Armor )
Shield: No Shield. Use 2-Handed weapon.
Weapon: Your choice.
Helm: Dragon Helm ( Henneth Dragon Killer boss )
Belt: Bull's Hair Belt or Baragor's Belt.
Rings: Bigby's Right Hand. The other ring is your choice.
Ammy: Amulet of Udan ( Balrog's Ammy )
Boots: Melkor Demon Boots ( High Priest of Doom boots )
Cloak: King's Mantle ( Theoden's cloak )
Bracer: Divine Touch ( Aragorn's gloves ) - Can use Divine Fury too ( Stinger Lord's gloves )


My weapon of choice was Flame of Udun. With it my damage output was 60s - 70s normal attack, 200s - 230s normal ciritcal, 90s - 110s, sneak attack and 250s - 280s sneak attack critical.









Later I made a new build like this with a slight tweak. I started with 14 CHA instead of 14 CON and I dropped Toughness and got Divine Might instead. Also I dropped Epic Fiendish Servant for Improved Sneak Attack II.

My weapon of choice was Unholy Halberd of Doom and with it my damage output is 60s - 70s normal attack, 250s - 300s normal critical, 90s - 110s sneak attack and 330s - 400s sneak attack critical


OBS:. The damages are rough estimates, it can be a little more or less, and they were all calculated being fully buffed and on NPC's with no or next to no resistance/immunity.

I was always interest in builds like this but the ab progression was a killer as were the temporary and easily dispellable buffs.

Are the Tenser shifters still viable? I know when I stopped playing the helmed horrors were the end-all be-all by a pretty significant margin. I had a built a 120ish AC tank and ran with a couple helmed horror hitters that just destroyed most everything.

The tenser bug was fixed. Only drows can use tenser now :/

Wizard shifters are probably the next best bet then. 25 wiz and you'd only need 10 shifter for construct shape. 2-3 less ab and minus 1 attack vs the ftr shifter (pre fix that is) but you'd pick up Warding/epic Mage Armor and the illusion foci feats for 65% conceal from Ethereal Visage. Not exactly super boss rompers but definitely better for mobs.

At 33 atm, i have the unholy halberd of doom. I love this build so far.
I need to double check, but i was unable to pick sneak iso epic fiend i think. But i went to bed after that level and will re-check it when i log in again later.
