My new RP concept

I just had an idea for a concept character i'd like to try out but I need help getting a build that would work for making my RP seem realistic.


The concept is this:

A knight has lost his sword in a battle with an evil wizard. During the fight, the wizzard summoned electricity to try and fry the knight. The knight blocked the blast with his shield but the metal in the shield transfered that power into his body so now, instead of fighting with a sword he has to use his electric power to fuel is punches. If he tries to hold a sword it will immediately melt. This angers him so he goes around killing huge groups of villians in a very short amount of time. He is dead set in his ways so he likes to find just one or two types of bad guys and just thin the herd for hours on end. That way, the evil bosses won't have so much support. Sort of a magical, medieval war of attrition character.

can anyone come up with a build that would fit this concept?

from the sound of it, elec/shield is what you want

Wow, interesting and original gameplay concept ... Now there's got to be a combo around here somewhere that would fit it ... Hang on a minute - you're not being completely serious are you?..

If your sword melts when you hold it, why doesn't your shield? :P

more specifically, the same magic that fused the electricity into my body, fused the shield to me as well, it has become an extension of my being thus allowing me to provide protection to myself unmatched by a normal man.

I lol'd.

Now tell us, how long did it take you to come up with a RP concept for an elec/shield farmer?

/gignore @username is the best feature of this game. It's also probably the least used feature.

By chance does this knight's power diminish if he's to far away from Atlas Park?


I gotta make pain. I gotta make things right. I gotta stop what's comin'. 'Least I gotta try.

no, because his favorite color is purple. PI calls his name and sometimes the wall in Cim

Hmmm.

I like the idea of this guy! You could tie his back story into the whole Hero One thing, with him maybe thinking if he gets Excalibur out of wherever Hero One stashed it, he could cure his affliction and end his curse.

Nice!

Granted, Elec/shield is a pretty terrible build, the defenses have to suck, but it'd be fun to mess around with.

It's strapped to Ms. Liberty's belt.


Which, on second thought, would give you plenty of excuses to get all up in that. Well played sir, well played.

I would put my money on Spines (with the custom metal spikes) and use the regen secondary....colored lightning blue.....I think then your concept would be complete. Perhaps you could even wear a Knight helm for dramatic effect? Make sure you use the lightning aura effects when you get to 30...that will set it all off....

I would consider Elec/SD one of the least terrible builds if played/built by a player who isn't totally lost with IOs.

WHAT?!

Come on, everybody knows concept toons sux. Jeeze, mang.

It's impossible to have a cool story, and a RP theme, and also be uber. So this Elec/shield thing must stink on ice.

Right?
