If you could pick 3 skill trees from any class into one what would be the best build?
Thanks in advance for contribution.

Hard to say what would be the best but I’ll take a crack at it:
Tree#1: Offensive Auras(Paladin)
Tree#2: Shadow Disciplines(Assassin)
Tree#3: Bow&Crossbow(Amazon)
Build would be as follows:
20 Fanaticism
20 Burst of Speed
20 Strafe
20 Guided Arrow
20 Multishot
6 Prerequisites
Equip a Mist(for Concentration aura and 100% Pierce) and proceed to dominate like no other.
Edit Now that I look at it… I want one…
Passive from Ama, shadow from assassin and lightning from sorc.
Energy shield, 2xdream with BoS/fade and Dogde.
Also imagine going lightning tree with offensive auras and defensive auras. You could make an “auradin” superhero.
I would do curses instead of shadow disciplines
I picked Shadow Disciplines for the extra Movement/Attack Speed. Makes you virtually impervious to slow effects while moving like no other Amazon before you. I get having Amplify would be so nice but there are ways of proc’ing it(albeit at poor rates unless you roll with Wrath/Brand or Reaper Toll Merc).
Edit: Here’s another one that would be stupidly broken as F#!#$
Tree#1: Offensive Auras(Paladin)
Tree#2: Defensive Auras(Paladin)
Tree#3: Fire OR Lightning Tree(Sorceress)
Fire Variant:
20 Warmth
20 Enchant
20 Fire Mastery
20 Resist Fire
20 Conviction
5 Prerequisites
Rest into Salvation
Grab Holy Fire aura via HoJ/Dragon and proceed to roll the forces of Hell with raw Fire damage
Lightning variant:
20 Resist Lightning
20 Salvation
20 Lightning Mastery
20 Conviction
5 Prerequisites
Grab Crescent Moon with dual Dream and proceed to roll Hell… lol
Holy fire kuko bow pally, easy 8k + fire damage with up to 83% chance of pierce . Use act 3 fire merc for lvl 40+ enchant. A great hell cower.
Tesladin/foher, use griffons, nigma, hoz. Max holy shock and use crescent moon pb with a 1 faith merc. You will be doing over 20k dmg zeal and have very high foh holy bolt dmg.
Frost maiden with mavs, serious build with 2 skill teleport amy
Dream tesladin, dual dream 30 30 pb OR 20 20 gris caddy, this will almost double your dmg!
Dream sorc zealot, requires a jewelers phase blade of zeal, ive only seen one in 20 years of playing but they are possible, check vendors. You need a pb with 4x shael to hit that last break point, passion pb won’t cut it. Alternativley, beast for wearbear and 4x shael caddy with max chant for supreme luls.
Blade Sin, do not follow anyone using last wish! A basic claw is superior than a perfect eth last wish berserker axe. Cheap version uses nats claw loh glove duress armor, you cannot beat the cost/performance. Max claw mastery, use SS with enough dex for max block. BoS is your friend along with a 30% frw circlet. 1 point to fade, 1 point to bos nothing into venom, this is a pure physical build. Enjoy salying the game!
Leladin, trang glove, belt armor. Basic foh build with a twist, fireball and fire wall! Flickering flame + hoto and fire facet armor shield. You will have about 1800 firewall and about 1k fb. Act 3 fire merc does damage! Get a fb ormus and watch him have over 4k fire damage, mercs do 25% damage to players vs players doing 16% damage. Fun times.
Summon from druid, summon from necro, paladin offensive auras. That would be the ultimate lazy slacker’s build. You just move around and collect stuff.
The only downside would probably be the fact you don’t have enough points to make both trees effective
Never thought it points wise. Maybe my idea wouldn’t be so good after all. I don’t like this thread anymore…
having the necro curse tree would be epic for every class, ( except shapeshift as they wont be able to cast curses in that form)
but you need to consider that vs paladin offensive aura
after that any aoe elemental build would be crazy
like imagine ele druid with the ability to cast amp and lower resist instead of having shapeshift tree
probaly light sorc tree as that comes with tele
overall i would say:
your fav damage tree
curses or offensive aura
something else, to support w/e damage tree you choose
maybe passive from zon or barb or shadow discipline from sin
Shadow Disciplines (Fade, Burst of Speed and Shadow Master are too good)
Lightning (Teleport, Energy Shield, Static Field & Nova? Sign me up!)
Either Poison & Bone or Traps for Corpse Explosion
Probably overkill on the AoE but I’d love to have all those skills on 1 toon
I guess Paladin with Defensive Aura (for Syn), Lightning/Fire (for Mastery) and Shapeshifting would be a fun Fury Paladin (using HoJ/Dragon or Dream).
As would a Frenzy Barb with Defensive Aura, Fire and Combat Skills (though I’d likely go 1 point double swing and max Enchant as well.
Haven’t actually done calculations, but pure power I expect Javazon with Lightning Mastery and use Barb Masteries as a 1 point wonder tree.
Curses, offensive auras and summons would be pretty effective.
Might be more interesting if you could pick individual skills instead of entire trees.
Barb (fcr BP, hp gain)
Offensive auras - Conviction
Javelin and spears - CS
Poison Bone - CE
sorc lightning tree + pala offensive tree + barb warcry tree
Summoning skills (Necro)
Offensive Auras (Paladin)
Fire Skills (Sorc)
Pretty much the standard summon necro (maybe last wish in hand instead of beast) with fire mastery to boost Corpse Explosion damage and perhaps Fire Golem.
Here’s another one…
Defensive Auras(Paladin)
Lightning Tree(Sorceress)
War Cries(Barbarian)
20 Resist Lightning
20 Nova
20 Static Field
20 Telekinesis
20 Battle Orders
1 Battle Command
1 Energy Shield
6 Prerequisites
Nova Sorceress with ES is already strong with proper equipment. Now with Sunder Charms… she’s insanely OP, especially if she has self-wielding Infinity to tap into that -45-55 Enemy Lightning Resistance. Tack on Resist Lightning and that Sunder Charm malus instantly disappears while making Black Souls virtually laughable to face(95 Resistance anyone?). Battle Orders buffs the snot out of her Life/Mana(with Shout providing Defense) and the only thing she needs to compliment the build is an Insight Merc to recover Mana. Throw on Flickering Flame for Resist Fire and this Sorceress will struggle to die to Elemental damage.
lightning (sorc)
bow and crossbow (amazon)
third TBD
I’d make an energy shield bowazon whose arrows cast chain lightning dmg to surrounding monsters with some mana leech somewhere. Doubt that it’d be the best build but it’d be fun.
Not the best one, but I would re-build one of my favorite characters, which was broken by this Dev team, the Wolfbarian Shapeshift, Masteries, Warcries and likely an Asswolf aswell Shapeshift, Shadow Arts and Offensive Aura (or other third, first 2 is why I would play this).
