Shifter/thaumaturge build.

Unread post by Calen »

I'm currently running this build and would like some advice if there is anything I can do to optimize this.
A full shifter build would also work as it fits the character, given I don't know how to build a proper one.

Link to the build: https://nwn2db.com/build/?339383

Frostmage= Thaumaturge
Minor shape shift= improved familiar.
Augment summoning= Augment form

The build has a few basic concepts.
- Needs to be a mage that shifts
- Need to be TN
- Doesn't summon evil creatures (or angels)
- Needs improved familiar.

The thing I considered changing.

- Drop the one int for another epic spell as he isn't DC focused, allow myself to get a +3 int item.
- Get power attack gloves for some damage
- Drop thaumaturge all together for a full-blown shape shifter wizard/dragon knight/EK.
- I've the toughness ring

Is there an item that gives exotic weapon feat?


I've a tendency to overlook some things in core features, any help would be appreciated.

You might consider 4 Rogue for Uncanny Dodge (prevents you from losing all your shapechange AC to hidden attackers) and opening up Expose Weakness.

Yeah, I would build it Wizard (11/12), Arcane Scholar (10), Thaumaturge (5), Rogue (4) or Cleric (3) with Evasion/Uncanny Dodge.
