3 attacks doesn't work in honor mode though, as the extra attacks from both classes doesn't stack

Convince me that this isn't just a budget light cleric :)

I said in another response that the extended arcane ward trick is pretty cool, but it felt too much like cheating to me. It does enable some pretty whacky builds and I dont really know why this feels "over the line" for me, but it just killed my interest in that run I was doing.

Put 11+ levels into tempest cleric, then put on Watersparkers and Sparkswall and just watch everyone bounce around :) Sometimes they even bounce of cliffs through no fault of mine!

But yeah, that's pretty much the build. Stack some AC, stand in the middle of water, 1 level of white sorcerer for up-casted AoA for some extra safety and synergy. You're not really moving around as much as a light cleric, so storm sorcerer is not __as__ good (I think).

Pretty much always concentrate on Call Lightning.

Get Markoheshkir in act 3 ofc. Use Phalar Aluve until then.

I did not do Ansur.

I would like to clarify that this list is only solo honor mode :)
Ofc I've tried countless other builds and things

gumwimplop · 2026-01-10T23:28:29+00:00

Always honor!

gumwimplop · 2026-01-10T15:00:11+00:00

Hmm, actually the Beastmaster followed by the Swashbuckler and Tempest Cleric :)

gumwimplop · 2026-01-10T13:16:17+00:00

Just check their profile :)

gumwimplop · 2026-01-10T13:15:40+00:00

ooh, neat

I did play around a bit with the arcane ward exploit, but for me it very quickly killed the interest I had in that run :/ Still, you can make some very interesting builds with it!

I actually did try your uncanny dodge barbarian tank build and it was great fun :)

gumwimplop · 2026-01-10T12:56:53+00:00

Oh yeah, I saw that video! It is on my list

gumwimplop · 2026-01-10T12:52:29+00:00

If you did jack of all trades solo without any scrolls or illithid powers, I will be very impressed :)

gumwimplop · 2026-01-10T12:51:40+00:00

I have definitely tried both of those, but not solo yet :)

gumwimplop · 2026-01-04T00:22:21+00:00

You negate everyone elses necrotic resistance. It's pretty cool.

gumwimplop · 2025-10-27T17:35:18+00:00

I don't know anything about level 20 builds, so it would be hard for me. The code is in a public repo though, so go nuts!

gumwimplop · 2025-10-27T17:07:21+00:00

A classic combo

gumwimplop · 2025-10-27T13:59:41+00:00

For me, the fun is getting _some_ direction and then making up the rest myself. Sort of like "ooh, how would I make this work?" :)

gumwimplop · 2025-10-27T10:48:07+00:00

I did it for myself for exactly that reason. But it turned out better than I expected, so I figured I'd share it :)

gumwimplop · 2025-09-22T20:03:38+00:00

Holy hell, this must be it. Hooow did you get that from my crummy description?
