Craziest Character Build
-
I was just thinking about the weirdest builds I have done and why, and was curious what everyone else's unique or unorthodox builds have been in the past and why you chose those.
Paladin/Bard with divine archery- Selunite singer/divine archer who fought evil but only spoke in rhymes
Ranger/Wizard - Evereskan Sun Elf who ended up joining the House of Maleen to support his fellow Evereskans
Ranger/Rogue/Sorcerer - Insane Tiefling who was disguising himself as a Satyr so he could spread chaos and play tricks on people
Parry-Build cloth-wearing Fighter - Pirate who prided himself on being "The Fastest Blade on the Wyvernwater."
Pure Rogue with High UMD - Wore robes and wielded a staff to convince people he was actually an infernalist wizard

3 wizard, 1 ranger, 3 fighter - Stark Wyvern who relied a lot on magic missile spell gems (bout all he could make with such low levels in wizard) and his -1 int ring which granted 2 level 2 spells and 2 level 1 spells. Plus some 5% failure chain mail. He also had skill focus parry, and improved parry. He frontlined…
1 Wizard, 1 fighter, 6 bard (7 for about ten minutes) - Slightly mad adventurer with dreams of travelling the planes. Used to fight gorgons blindfolded (actual item that caused blindness) with one arm tied behind his back. Till someone cut his arm off. Then he didn't need to tie it behind his back anymore.

Isn't that an oxy-Moron? I mean…. how would you do it? That does not compute!!11!
-
cleric1/mage1/rogue x (got to 7) had people convinced he was a cleric of significant level - people kept asking for full restorations and raises… suitably duplicitous as was a maskarn.
fey touched bard with only enchantment spells and 6 con - got to 11 at one point, and i think broke through 30 hps to do so.
-
Dual wield ranger who only used fish with the no damage property. When he finally got to a high enough level to tame a squid to call the Krappen he was killed by an octopus seconds later. What a journey.

You forgot the best part. He was called Paul Shieldon, which was pronounced Poo-shi-don. Hence the squid's name being the Krappen.

This is like…the thread that describes how I play NWN. Where do I even begin?
Ranger?/Rogue?/Barbarian? - Elf who liked to bash stuff - I was a young and had no idea how to play, once tried bashing a goblin with a shield wand
Wizard9/Ftr2 - Spellsword who swore she could frontline and scout...actually just sucked at mostly everything. Once rolled opposed strength to stop a raging barbarian instead of using the Stilled Hold Person she had prepared for just such an occasion. Fail.
(Note - the fighter levels were NOT part of the build plan...they just sort of happened. I cared less about mechanics then. The good old days.)Rogue3/Wiz5 - Chaotic Good Maskarran street urchin turned rich honest businesswoman, had a Cyricist mentor who taught her to poison -everything-
Cleric4/Bard4 - "Secret" Agent singer/priestess of the Song god, didn't really keep her secret at all, also was like a 50 hp tank against the Shadovar army
Ranger6/Wiz3 - This concept was born out of "Hmm, this apple I'm eating is really good. Let's make a CoA character", so much survivability it's ridiculous
-
Pure Druid (8) with low con, low dex and low str, multiple summons and cross class bluff. Made people believe they were a hive mind.
-
They weren't? Fooled the f out of me.

Fooled me too.
and to toss one of mine in. intent was a mystran pure monk,
got IG talked into going Mage, then later switched to cleric (or fighter?)
crazy build was monk1,2,->Wiz1,2,3,4-> fighter 1(if i remember correctly)
And tried to frontline. Sucked at everything. -Badly- Except Spellcraft. -
They weren't? Fooled the f out of me.
I joined the server later.
I was being told stories how the hive-mind concept was super awesome! -
My first character ever on this server was a Fighter Wizard who used a Doubleblade… Had no two weapon fighting or ambidexterity... And I pumped points into parry thinking that it would increase the damage the character did.

I remember a lot of these old crazy builds. The Multitude was awesome. My PnP players have run into so many hivemind druids because of that concept. Pure win.
I also remember games' Samantha Watkins. The two of us used to pretend to tank together a lot. We were bad at it.
You should also throw your other crazy build into the mix, games. What was it like fighter/bard/wizard with star pact?

She was a ex-Beshaban bard/cleric turned bard/wiz Kilgravian/Lyssan/Legionnaire/Warshamaness/Tyche Miltia Commander(lol) who collected souls as a hobbyOnly Syrin Aessa knew the depths of her bloodlust for revenge on Arabel, and how devastation was spared only by a number of unconnected infiltrated faction people quitting characters at the wrong time.
