Added as Ranger. 17 of 20 and still no first choice conflicts. :)

Harlax - thank you for doing the summary, I've been busy with work and didn't get a chance to do it.

I would recommend we have 2 very strong clerics combined with 2 very strong bards. At least 1 of the Druids should probably be healing focused as well.

The rogue build I play is range focused for decent damage (but, like all rogues, not on par with the casters).

What do we want? Evidence based science! When do we want it? After peer review!

Based on experience with True Horde, we should probably have both Cleric and Druid optimized for healing, possibly with Charm of Spell Swapping.

I'm hoping our group is truly geared for this.

No problem. I'm a compulsive organizer. :P

If I get one of the fighters or paladin or barbarian, you could run my son's Druid build.


Umm 9 other people have agreed I am never allowed to play a druid again :-).


This is true. I was on that run. No Druid for James. ;)


One of the other 9 on that run. It was almsot unanimous (9 to 1). ;)

I'm a decent Cleric, +22 healing and have the lenses of divine sight to duplicate. Don't have the Charm of Spell Swapping, but I'm sure someone may be able to help out with that or I can see about getting one.

I have all the cleric toys and I will post my cleric build I am running with this a little later. I have been thinking about this build for a year since last year.

Still looking for 3 others. Current line up and class selection can be found on page 2.

Andy prefers Druid, I didn't get from him his backup preferences.

Ian: For pure force, human wizard or barbarian would make most sense in my case. As there seems a dearth of wizards, I can be a token MECer.


Added. Still no Bards and light on strong ranged attacks.


My Bard build is decent but my Ranger build is better. The GT sigil I wound up with is +4 to hit with missile.

It is a bit puzzling as all the tickets for this were purchased on Patron day.

This is not an event where we want to be haggling over class selection in coaching. Especially those of us coming from other runs ending shortly before this one.

Surprisingly, not all Patrons are on the forums. For example, at TDC I met Ray and his wife, who weren't on the forums. Both were well equipped for Horde, and we were able to work them in to our plans. I tried to encourage them to join the forums, but no clue whether they did after TDC.

Also, I'm fine planning to be one of our Bards, and having the Dwarf as my backup plan.

I could whip up a Cleric or Wizard if necessary. Both will be significantly inferior to my Dwarf Fighter/ Fighter build
