TOPIC: Number of backup class builds for in-person PUGs?

James Clausen wrote: Hi Marc.

I have elected myself guild master for my friend group. While I have been playing for a while, I have really stepped it up from 1-2 runs at GenCon to personally playing the VTDs. My hope is to create normal ready builds for a full group (and then progress to HC depending on the tokens I have). Would you be willing to share your normal ready builds so I have a starting point?

James

Happy to share what I can. Will take some time later tonight.

Sweet. No rush. GenCon is still far off. HeHe.

The majority of my tokens are from 23-25 but I should be able to get the jist of it and if I have enough decent tokens we may be able to run at HC.

Yes, by all means feel free to “translate” into more recent tokens. The concepts are similar.

Alright, here's the builds I have that can go across my token collection. I went through and removed the ultra rare and above tokens that I know I have. I left a few light blue tokens that are either cheap or highly beneficial (or both) to show what's possible.

I didn't include a Bard because that's what my main character is and it'd be difficult for me to scale that down (since I own the fancy stuff)

Some notes:
Elf wizard has a very specific token that lets you cheese Alertness every room in the Neck slot. There's also a cheap ultra rare that let you do the same
I tried to toss in treasure enhancers because treasure is fun
I played through the early VTD cycle a *lot* so I have a lot of belts of the brave, jasper ellipsoids and other strong completion tokens in these builds

Hope these help give some direction!

Thank you!
