[edit] Description

The Divine Arrow of Evil is one part of a triplett build I call"the good, the bad & the ugly". The main goal behind these builds was to enhance the terrible will saves in other ranged builds. My first idea was to use the wisdom based zen archery to get good will saves, but all archery feats are DEX based so it didn't worked without using the Ranger. So I had to find other ways to raise the will saves.

The divine evil version is clearly the damage dealer of the 3. Equiped with a nymph cloak +8 the epic divine might adds +18 to every single arrow. The disadvantages are clearly the low INT and WIS and the low amount of skillpoints you can give.


Advantages:

  • great damage due to the epic divine might
  • Blackguards Sneak attack (+2d6), Aura of despair
  • good saves and AC
  • playable from 1-30
  • no xp Malus

Disadvantages:

  • low CON
  • low INT
  • bad skill progression
  • wizard class only good to qualify for AA
  • lower will saves than Arrow of Good and Arrow of Evil
