03-20-07, 01:05 PM My DM is starting a 11th lvl astral plan campaign......I was wondering what builds would be best ...for surviving all the possible outcomes ...suchas being drawn into another plane..and dealing with the enviromental rules for the astral plane

thanks

03-20-07, 04:39 PM Well I have looked at a psion/slayer build ...and possibly a binder/koss

I don't want to be the master of planar travel....but at least something with a "planer attunement" like ability and something that has alot of powers/abilities that require the material plane

thanks

03-21-07, 12:13 AM If you have access to the Planar Handbook, I'd take a look at the substitution levels there. According to this thread (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=414760), several of them are very solid and become even better in a planar campaign.

03-21-07, 09:36 AM Hehe, after your first post, I looked into the SRD and I came up with something not ar from your idea, too.

It's not the most optimised build (or race for that matter) but definitly classic:

Githyanki Wilder 6 / (Illithit)Slayer 3.

Githzerai could be even better, Choose Psi-Warrior instead of wilder with a high Wis and Dex - take a Monk's Belt and your racial innitial armor (take the psionic version) and Force Screen and your AC will be damn high.
However - You'd have no plane shift for two more levels. :)
