The Unstoppable Warrior

style="font-style: italic;">By Darkgolem



The unstoppable warrior is a barbarian/fighter designed to take
enormous amounts of punishment.  Not so much a tank, in the sense
of having a very high armor class, this combatant has enormous hit
points, coupled with a moderately good armor class, and a high level of
resistance.  This build is meant to be a “sword and board” build,
using a shield and armor for maximum armor class.



Normally this would imply an issue for allies of this character,
because it would take more healing to heal the unstoppable
warrior.  But because of careful enhancement choices, this isn't
the case.  With a massive 505 hit points raged, this normally
would drain a clerics spell points.  However, these hit point
totals are actually an equivalent to a quarter less, because of the
href="http://ddo.tentonhammer.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&ceid=462">human
recovery enhancement, before any href="http://ddo.tentonhammer.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&ceid=447">bonuses
a cleric has to
healing.  Plus damage is reduced substantially by the 6/- damage
reduction this warrior has.  If one is leary of having a build
with so many hit points, prepare a dragonshard and respec at levels 4
or 8, after trying out the build,

This character is best with a 32 point build.  This allows
substituting dodge for one of the toughness feats, and allows gaining
full benefit from using mithril full plate.
