07-31-07, 11:22 PM I just got access to the class, and am insanely happy that I did, but I'm not sure where to squeeze in the level of it. Just the one level of Hellreaver grants holy fury, kind of divine rage with unlimited uses per day, free action to enter, and lasts the duration of an encounter. It makes all your melee attacks good aligned and grants immunity to fear effects. He's currently 5th level. Here are my 2 options:

Race:Wood Elf
Alignment:Neutral Good

STR-16 (10)+2
DEX-12 (4)+2
CON-14 (6)-2
INT-12 (4)-2
WIS-8 (0)
CHA-12 (4)

Lv1(Ranger)Improved Toughness
Lv2(Fighter)Power Attack
Lv3(Barbarian)Extra Rage
Lv4(Warmage)+1 CON
Lv5(Ranger)Rapid Shot
Lv6(Ranger)Endurance, Reckless Rage
Lv7(Hellreaver)
Lv8(Wildrunner)+1 CON
Lv9(Wildrunner)Feat
Lv10(Dragon Disciple)
Lv11(Dragon Disciple)+2 STR
Lv12(Dragon Disciple)Feat, +1 WIS
Lv13(Dragon Disciple)+2 STR
Lv14(Dragon Disciple)
Lv15(Dragon Disciple)Feat, +2 CON

Gets Holy Fury as soon as possible for my character, but pushes back all the other strength boosts in the build. The other option would be to place the Hellreaver level immediately after wildrunner. I just don't know which I want more, Holy Fury or Primal Scream...I know the good aligned weapons will be much more useful at higher levels...I just don't know if level 7 is too soon for it to be as helpful as the extra strength, dex, bite, and movement from Wildrunner...

08-01-07, 07:57 AM I've seen Wildrunner in use, and Primal Scream is entirely useful. Putting off Hellreaver until Level 9 is not a bad choice, mainly because there's little to few monsters that require that good-aligned weapon at APL 8. Even if there happens to be those critters, having just one Oil of Bless Weapon is not going to set you back- just in case you need it. They are not that expensive, anyways.

Hmm, yeah goo reasoning. I guess it's just that the access was so rare and unexpected that I wanted to take it as soon as possible...and now that I've seen the class, I really wish I had a chance to make a full classed Hellreaver too.
