Can another here think of an alternative to a blaster wilder? Outside of that the only other build I could come up with requires metamorph/shapechaning stuff. Anyways thanks in advance.

06-11-04, 04:57 AM Wilder gets 3/4 BAB, light armor, and Surging Euphoria. IMO this lends to it being a very interesting melee class. Take combat buffs and battlefield control powers and take advantage of Surging Euphoria. Try this for a power list:
level 1: Vigor
level 2: Offensive Precognition
level 4: Biofeedback
level 6: Mental Barrier
level 8: Telekinetic Maneuver
level 10: Tower of Iron Will
level 12: Temporal Acceleration
level 14: Psionic Moment of Prescience
level 16: True Metabolism
level 18: Psionic Etherealness
level 20: Reality Revision

This gives you a pretty straightforward selection of powers for your personal defense and to make you a better attacker, and will work well combined with the Power Attack, Dodge, or Combat Expertise feat chains. You can go more tactical too, focusing on battlefield control and taking Wall of Energy, Decelerate, and similar powers to take control of enemy positions and movement.
