Now you're throw words in my mouth because I never said DDO and DnD were the same. I said mechanics behind the saves and AC were still the same. A full plate is 8 AC in DnD as it is in DDO.
I believe that equipment is for your halfling right? What about the Halfling status? You're trying play stupid so you won't have to post your whole build. OMG! You act as if I ask you how big your...well...you get the idea. I mean so private about your character build. I guess because I'm a girl this is all too intimidating for you? It's not like it'll disappear if I see it.
****
Notice that nobody here has thrown out a counter argument. The majority "agreeing to disagree" doesn't make something right. They do this type of stuff in Official EQ2 forums. Like you, they seem to be very private. Okay guys, you don't have to show me your builds, I won't ask anymore, if you feel that uncomfortable.

there are no counter arguments because you haven't made a valid point. As I said before you can't compare character classes really, because there are too many variances in character development. The only way to make the comparison valid would be to take a fighter and a paladin and give them all the same skills, feats, equipment, and enhancements. and that wouldn't make either one of them very effective.
The bottom line is...your arguing about high level skills and abilities in a game that you only played until level 4.....You really want us to take your arguments seriously?
LOL! Let me get this straight, you guys argued that the Paladin can't tank as well as the Fighter, but you can't compare the prowess of Barbarian with a Fighters. How is that it's fair for you guys to compare the Paladin and Fighter, but I can't compare a Fighter and Barbarian. Does anything to do with me being a girl and a girl always having to be the underdog.
So where does it say in this forum that only elist can post. Since you guys are playing and still playing, you should be able to whip a build that can prove me wrong? I'm so ignorant, yet you guys have yet to post anything in your statement to counter.
The problem CapLas is that you are throwing figures and stats around to compensate for the fact that you don't even play the game. Weather or not you said that DDO and PnP D&D are the same or not, your throwing around stats and such reflects that you believe that they are, to which those that actually play both say they are not.
Most of your postings in regards to stats are interesting but should go in the PnP section not the DDO general discussion. You are not going to win a debate telling us what is or isn't a better tank in DDO when you have openly admitted you only played until level 4. Just has your alter ego, the CapN you are by far in the minority in regards to your arguments on this forum.
You are not going to convince those of us that actually play that you have a better insight into the game than we do by posting builds. Actually experience often differs from builds. On paper I can make some great builds but when I attempt to put them to the test in reality they end up not doing so well.
If anyone goes into the game thinking that they are going to get the exact same feel out of the game as they do/did huddled around a table in their parents basement playing the PnP, they are going to be disappointed. No game will ever be able to replace an active imagination.
Anyway, I find this whole argument back and forth about the best tank in the game funny when it is a half dozen or more of us that actually play the game (elitist as you like to call us Las) only in disagreement with one person that has time and again proven that he/she doesn't appear to know much about DDO past what they have read on forums and what very little they found leveling a single character to 4 over the period of a few days.

You are the only one bringing up being a girl.
But then again no one on here thinks you are a girl. We believe with almost complete certainly that you are CaptainRPG.

I'm not sure if you've caught on yet, but I can't read your post.
LOL. You say that as if though you are the only one I am talking to.

Nor has it changed the fact you don't have a counter argument to back your statement. As for the girl statement, I'm just picking fun at you guys and how your behavior is similar to teenage boys with little egos.

How is pointing out that you are a girl (which no one believes) making fun at us?
And how is our behavior the same as teenage boys? Just because the majority of us disagree with you, that makes us teenagers?
LOL.

The little respect i had, is gone im afraid.
to the rest of you: i really dont care who this person is. her/his posts started out fine, but now, lately they have had a strong resemble to Cap.RPG's posts. i have to admit that. Atleast now we know who to ask if we are in doubt about our builds. Just post here and Lastera the all-knowing-DDO-sage will answers and help us Still waiting for her to fix my broken paladin tho... she/he better, because she promised.

It is comical.
Dec. 28th was the last day CaptainRPG post to this forum after countless attempts to stir up stuff.
Dec. 29th Lastera makes her (er. his) first posting to the DDO forum, and makes post almost exactly the same as CaptainRPG.
Both were listed as coming from Jacksonville, Fl. We call Lastera out on that and suddenly she/he changes it to Hollywood, Fl.
Isn't there something in the ROC about not having multiiple accounts? Guess he/she failed to read the ROC.
Edit: Yeah I found the entry under Major Infractions:
Multiple Accounts
If the staff of MMORPG.com discovers that a user is creating and/or using multiple accounts, that user, and all accounts, both past and present, will be banned from MMORPG.com.

to Lastera: I took one level fighter to get Towershield and toughness feat. All you need to do is look away from those feats and pretend im a level 8 paladin ... and yeah, improved crit - slashing i took as my level 9 feat.
I mentioned I was a girl when I first got here. I mention in the Vanguard boards that I was moving from J-Ville to Hollywood. Oh wait, you guys trolls in these forums only. I forget this is the only cave for you. My first post were in the Vanguard board, not here. I got called C-RPG for agree with someone of this statement I consider him/her and some of you guys trolls. You've spent more time being negative than productive.

Your original build was
STR – 18
Con – 10
Int – 10
Wisdom – 14

Protection against evil does not stack with protection against evil, you probably only got +1 AC with dodge and other +1 comes from Dex.
Drow
Str – 14 (With same item it’s 18)
Dex – 10 (14)
Con – 12 (16)
Will – 14 (18)
Int - 10

Concentration - 12 + 1 = 13
Heal - 12 + 2 = 14

Haggle - 7 + 6 = 13
1. Exotic Weapon Bastard Sword
3. Tower Shield
6. Weapon Focus
Everything else is the same.
With the same items, feats (except Toughness), the same enchantments (except Drow Spell Resistance) which should be traded for Resistance of Good (+3), Paladin’s Grace (+2) and pure class, your character will get a Fort save of 21, Reflex of 17 and Will of 22.
You’ll get a HP of 152, but your AB and damage is down by 2 points. (That's what Smite evil is for) Drow Resistance is useful for you, but what about the rest of your party members. Bulwark of Good and Resistance of Good can two of your best enchantments. The better your friend save, the less wipe out they’ll have. You still get 39 AC and you’re more of important asset than before. Also you can trade in Paladin Grace, if you can afford it and you can pick up Extra Law on hands or Great Devotion.
For your current build at 12th level spell, you should pick up mental toughness or lightning reflex . Maybe if you played on your paladin strengths rather than try to turn him into powerhouse, he do better.

I didn't get back on until tonight 2am and I'm not Lastera. And I'm not even going to defend myself on this because watching you guys for the past 2 weeks accusing of being me was funnny enough. After watching my friend play the trial, I'm actually hoping DDO does well. I have no disdains. I'm hoping DDO takes the WoW and GW fans by storm. Seriously. Imagine what DDO would be like with 7 million of WoW players. I mean they are more and more kids joining by the day. So you guys have fun, I'm out and off these boards.

And how is our behavior the same as teenage boys? Just because the majority of us disagree with you, that makes us teenagers?
LOL.

Im speechless...
The little respect i had, is gone im afraid.
to the rest of you: i really dont care who this person is. her/his posts started out fine, but now, lately they have had a strong resemble to Cap.RPG's posts. i have to admit that. Atleast now we know who to ask if we are in doubt about our builds. Just post here and Lastera the all-knowing-DDO-sage will answers and help us Still waiting for her to fix my broken paladin tho... she/he better, because she promised.

It is comical.
Dec. 28th was the last day CaptainRPG post to this forum after countless attempts to stir up stuff.
Dec. 29th Lastera makes her (er. his) first posting to the DDO forum, and makes post almost exactly the same as CaptainRPG.
Both were listed as coming from Jacksonville, Fl. We call Lastera out on that and suddenly she/he changes it to Hollywood, Fl.
Isn't there something in the ROC about not having multiiple accounts? Guess he/she failed to read the ROC.
Edit: Yeah I found the entry under Major Infractions:
Multiple Accounts

hehe...
to Lastera: I took one level fighter to get Towershield and toughness feat. All you need to do is look away from those feats and pretend im a level 8 paladin ... and yeah, improved crit - slashing i took as my level 9 feat.
I mentioned I was a girl when I first got here. I mention in the Vanguard boards that I was moving from J-Ville to Hollywood. Oh wait, you guys trolls in these forums only. I forget this is the only cave for you. My first post were in the Vanguard board, not here. I got called C-RPG for agree with someone of this statement I consider him/her and some of you guys trolls. You've spent more time being negative than productive.
+5 full plate,
+5 towershield,
+4 cold iron bastard sword of pure good (main weapon),
+4 Str gloves, +4 Con belt, +4 wis necklace, +4 dex ring,
+3 charisma/intimitate helm,
+2 resistance cloak with lesser cold resist,
+70 SP trinket,
Chaosguard bracers (constant protection vs evil spell
+2 dodge bonus to ac), greater devotion 2 ring, +15% striding boots.
DROW 8th PALADIN with one FIGHTER level
STR: 22
DEX: 14
CON:14
INT: 10
WIS: 18
CHR: 22.
Hit Points: 139 Spell Points: 188
AC: 39
FORT: +20
REFLEX: +17
WILL: +16.
Feats: Weapon focus - slashing, Exotic weapon - Bastard Sword, improved critical - slashing, and toughness. Enchantments: Bulwark of good, paladins charisma, Drow spell resistance, extra lay on hands.
go nuts...
Your original build was
STR – 18
Con – 10
Int – 10
Wisdom – 14
Cha: 16?
Protection against evil does not stack with protection against evil, you probably only got +1 AC with dodge and other +1 comes from Dex.
Drow
Str – 14 (With same item it’s 18)
Dex – 10 (14)
Con – 12 (16)
Will – 14 (18)
Int - 10
Cha – 14 (20 + 3)
SkillsConcentration - 12 + 1 = 13
or
Haggle - 7 + 6 = 13
1. Exotic Weapon Bastard Sword
3. Tower Shield
6. Weapon Focus
Everything else is the same.
With the same items, feats (except Toughness), the same enchantments (except Drow Spell Resistance) which should be traded for Resistance of Good (+3), Paladin’s Grace (+2) and pure class, your character will get a Fort save of 21, Reflex of 17 and Will of 22.
You’ll get a HP of 152, but your AB and damage is down by 2 points. (That's what Smite evil is for) Drow Resistance is useful for you, but what about the rest of your party members. Bulwark of Good and Resistance of Good can two of your best enchantments. The better your friend save, the less wipe out they’ll have. You still get 39 AC and you’re more of important asset than before. Also you can trade in Paladin Grace, if you can afford it and you can pick up Extra Law on hands or Great Devotion.
For your current build at 12th level spell, you should pick up mental toughness or lightning reflex . Maybe if you played on your paladin strengths rather than try to turn him into powerhouse, he do better.
You sure put a LOT OF EFFORT into a game you don't play or like. Why is this? There was a poster who seems to have departed the boards for now but he felt it was his duty/quest/mission to uncover the lies and half truths perpetuated by some about DDO, what are your thoughts on someone like this, on someone who seemed unable to walk away from a game he clearly hated with a passion?
You must not leave until you free Arlos and have gathered your party safely in this hallway.

Hi there Lastera, well, I would say we have missed you but you've never really been away, so while Lastera can block what I read, you can just log into CaptainRPG and read them anyway, so I have always known you have been getting them

I didn't get back on until tonight 2am and I'm not Lastera. And I'm not even going to defend myself on this because watching you guys for the past 2 weeks accusing of being me was funnny enough. After watching my friend play the trial, I'm actually hoping DDO does well. I have no disdains. I'm hoping DDO takes the WoW and GW fans by storm. Seriously. Imagine what DDO would be like with 7 million of WoW players. I mean they are more and more kids joining by the day. So you guys have fun, I'm out and off these boards.
