Twitch McGee has a need for speed.

[Juramenta]

Twitch McGee loves being the fastest in whatever game he appears.
Yet realises that on the bgtscc server or neverwinter nights 2 in general, he really needs the help from the community to build himself up. Twitch specialises in using a build, but is terrible with creating one.

He is a pure treasure chest/quest runner.
Twitch has no time for fighting and all that sillyness, save for maybe a orc chieftan here or there.

He is not opposed to teleportation, but also believes there is room for a speedrun with and one without teleportation. If possible he would like to achieve both.

What does Twitch believe he will need?
- Being the fastest character on the server.
- High saves with evasion, because noone has time for disabling traps.
- Lock picking, unless he will have enough damage output that bashing will go faster.
- Short and long distance teleportation.
- Enough uses of invisibility that will allow him to do multiple dungeons before needing to rest. Also would not want to scare of the locals when he is running past them trying to break the sound barrier.
- Hips, for when invisibility breaks after opening a chest or simply when a enemy sees through invisibility.
- Knowledge on possible items he should hunt for that will allow him to speedrun even faster.
- Goal will be to speedrun every possible 'dungeon' on the server, so he has to be prepared for every kind there is. If there is a 'keyless' chest to be opened, he is going to run it. Only repeatable quests are going to be his goal, because he believes he will need to run it multiple times before getting a record time.

If the community is willing to help twitch, he in return hopes to someday record his runs blind. Which means running without a visible UI so the run will be most pleasing on the eyes.

Cleric of Eldath 8 (Plant and Water domains for 10% movement boost and Evasion), plus Eldath is non-violent. sanctuary for invisibility.)
Monk 6 (+20 feet movement speed)
Sacred Fist 10 (+30 feet movement speed)
Hierophant 6 (to improve Caster level... Or you could take 3 more cleric levels and go Bodyguard 3 for another 10% speed boost, but you probably want CL29 which needs Hierophant)

What does Twitch believe he will need?
- Being the fastest character on the server.
(Not sure about the fastest, but he's fast)
- High saves with evasion, because noone has time for disabling traps.
check
- Lock picking, unless he will have enough damage output that bashing will go faster.
put a point or 10 in pick locks..check.
- Short and long distance teleportation.
Nope, have to pick as there is no deity with both plant (for speed boost) and teleport...could try scrolls, but UMD will only be 16
- Enough uses of invisibility that will allow him to do multiple dungeons before needing to rest. Also would not want to scare of the locals when he is running past them trying to break the sound barrier.
Sactuary, greater sanctuary, or use a wand of invisibility (Tarent's wands and elixirs, tell your friends!) Also has stealth, but no camouflage so, probably to slow for ol' Twitch.
- Hips, for when invisibility breaks after opening a chest or simply when a enemy sees through invisibility.
Nope...
- Knowledge on possible items he should hunt for that will allow him to speedrun even faster.
sure, why not? Boots of haste, wand of haste, bracers of blinding speed or take the feat if you have high enough DEX
- Goal will be to speedrun every possible 'dungeon' on the server, so he has to be prepared for every kind there is. If there is a 'keyless' chest to be opened, he is going to run it. Only repeatable quests are going to be his goal, because he believes he will need to run it multiple times before getting a record time.

All this said... A Ranger/Cavestalker might be something you enjoy more as it can stealth run with Ranger fast movement in outdoor and indoor natural areas. Longstrider can help increase movement speed as well.

Thank you for the fast reply!

You sure have given me a lot to think about.
I will download the training module and try to building both.
I'll post the first draft build here before going live with one of them.

Thanks!

A build with camoflage feat and cavestalker, max dex and survival at 30 ranks.
Slap on a wyvern light armor for 10% fast movement (buy it at the blacksmith in beregost), Rogue, divine seeker or ninja early levels dip for trapfinding.
Get dash in some way.

That should be fast and sneaky enough.

Assassin/monk! Evasion, great reflex, highest base speed, hips, invisibility from assassin spells, teleport by umd, ki step, bash chests with high fist damage. Haste items for silly speed.

[nightingale]

monk 6/Spirit Shaman 11/Sacred Fist 10/Shadowdancer 3

30ft base
+20ft from monk 6
+30ft from SF
=80ft
X3 from extended storm avatar
= 240 ft movement speed total.

You also get the other stuff you mentioned, you could get higher speed without HiPs, and you'd need a wand of invisibility to run at full speed undetected. Also low CL (23), but that matters when you are trying to fight things, not when you're blazing past them.

[kellendril]

This might be the single most OOC character concept I've ever imagined..I am stunned that people are actually posting builds to help this..

[Storm Munin]

Why?
Seem like a BGTSCC version of Indiana Jones to me, if roleplay are taken into account.

It is imho no wierder then playing a paladin or archmage.
Bloodmages and palemasters being very wierd in perspective.

Lets not even get into roleplaying being an elemental, dragon, horned devil, troll, mindflayer or dropbear.


OP go for it!

Why?
dropbear.

dropbear.

*rolls will save vs urge of rolling a dropbear*
*fails critically*
*shakes head*

OP, you need a Monk25/SD5 with a wand of invisibility.

You'll be lightning-fast, you'll be fast even in stealth, you'll never ever need to rest, you'll have the dmg to kill enemies and break chests, and you'll basically be immortal. Grab Ki Step for the extra mobility you were asking for.

Not sure why you'd play anything else, with your requirements.

Either that...or a dropbear. A dropbear...

Dropbear...

I was under the impression monks are rather underpowered? How's that immortal?

[chad878262]

You're mistaken. Monks are very powerful. High AC, good saves, spell resistance, good damage and lots of attacks per round.

[Invoker]

That's because of hearsay. Which is next to always wrong, in NWN2.

So, you have a character with the speed to dodge bullets (attacks, AoE spells, whatnot) for easy control of the fight's tempo, evasion, deflect arrows, defensive roll + epic dodge, hips, SR, decent AC and medium HP that is immune to poisons and mind effects, plus Ki Steps to teleport around...Not to mention the 10/DR and on-demand 50% concealment.

You need two wands, and then you're unkillable.

How exactly is that not immortal? How bad do you have to screw up to get killed? Those are the questions...

As a 1st level monk your AC isn't too good unless you have muled gear to start with.

At 1st level, every character is pretty shit mate. Favored Soul is also horrid.

I'm not sure what your point is.

[Juramenta]

Thanks for all the great suggestions.
I am trying to build them all and then test them in the training module.
I'll probably record it all so you guys can help me decide on a final build.

Also been searching the server to see if there are areas I have missed so far to see if I need anything specific to beat it.
