Cerge started out his life as a sorcerer and then he became a wizard and a bard (arcane sphere). His three first lives he was a non iconic, but since iconics were released, all of Cerge’s lives have been iconic. Before his current life as a ranger, he was a favored soul, a cleric, a paladin (divine sphere) and a druid. Now the time has come for Cerge to try artificer. Since I want to stick to iconics, Cerge’s arti life will be split with rogue.
This is my first time doing this kind of build, and even though I did ask Hamster for a lot of advice, I do want to try a few minor differences to see what I prefer. This is only the first draft, and I’ll most likely make changes along the way. For this draft I chose to put points in diplomacy, intimidate and bluff, on epic reincarnation I might do things differently.
Here is the first draft:

And here is my first attempt at the enhancements. These will most likely change.
Cerge enhancements July 29, 2019. They’ve looked like this a while, I just forgot to add the screenshot.

That’s all for this post.
Thank you for stopping by.

Reblogged this on DDOCentral.
Why not go for KtA instead of that HP bonus ? It does work on all xbows.
Ty for the suggestion. I’ll have a look.
