I have been thinking about this for a while and I even played around with it before..

If a wizard gets a solid template, with some con, melee bonuses etc. they could kill stuff in melee, I'm sure! Let's have a look at the toys:

RR5, cl styles(I know they are not that effective, but with a proper weapon with some procs it could work), with earth spec you get a 87dot, ns, snare and root for kiting to heal up

I'm 8l5 iirc on my wizard so I was thinking about speccing my RAs like this:

  • PD 4 - This is needed as I would never stand a chance in melee without it
  • Long Wind 1 - For perma sprint
  • Mastery of Pain 4 - Would not be doing enough damage without it
  • Adrenalin Rush 1 - To double melee dmg for 20secs
  • Purge 2 - Slam is a killer
  • Decimation Trap 1 - 2secs non-interruptable trap that does 00dmg instantly
  • Volcanic Pilar 1 - 200 instant dmg, which combined with DT and RR5 will deal a great amount of damage in very short time

All I need now is a proper template! I am 100% sure this will work! There is no doubt about that I will ofc be killed alot and rolled over, but when it finally works out, I'm sure it will be an amazing feeling :D

So my challenge to you guys.. Can anyone of you make me a proper template that would make me able to compete in melee with my wizard?

dear bambi :p

if i still had any program that could sort out templates i would spend loads of hours on makeing you the "perfect temp" just so i when you finish it.. could resub my hib acc. and come slap you around :p

tbh im gonna give it a look... maybe i can sort summit out bored as hell at the moment anyway.

so your going fighter/healer cl's im guessing ?

Earth Theurg are better
EB/haste, 6s pbt, red asd. I actually beat a paladin in an unbuffed duel :) 90% of his swings got absorbed and i strafed like a mfer to get passed his shield. And that was without pd!

and if so i would Go Purge 2 dectrap 3 vp2 and aug str 2 lw 1
Since str will uppen ur dmg abit mop will only make u crit on that super amazing dmg that a caster can lash out in mele :p so u will have to rely on timer u might be able to kill a roglord 45 stealther in mele but seriously doubt it :p

I've had the same idea as you.
Except I've had this idea for years, just never did it.
I'm making a melee BD on US servers..
CL Styles, the corecct weapon, high AF, hits, con, and dex are a MUST.
Methinks, however, your idea is fine, but needs a few tweeks.
Volcanic Pilar would mean you're not fully melee..
so don't waste 5 rsp on that, instead put those 5 into
Toughness 2
Aug Con 1
imo. That way 75 hits extra plus whatever amount comes from the extra 4 con..
Also your mythirian will need to be Greater Mythirian of Health/Mythirian of Endurance/Bolstering Augmented Mythirian (or whatever the +8con and con cap one is)

Atm my Melee BD is level 36.. so it's just a regular BD for now.. but it's getting there.

And FYI to whoever said Aug Str - don't bother. Melee damage with a staff is governed by dex still, not strength.

P.S
Sorry for the late reply and the thread highjacking

Holy shit, even my protoge has an award! How fucking awesome am I? :D

But srsly BUMP! This must now be possible with all the new gears and gadgets!

BloodOmen or someone else who really kicks ass at making templates, I would much appreciate it if you would just give it a try :)
