ok so I've played every class to the late 70s early 80s and I've done some multiple time seeing different skill patters and how they work but this time i was going to try and use a class for things it wasn't meant to do. i'm making a physic but instead of the standard build i was thinking making it into a physical class. give me a second to explain though.

1. voodoo buffs would be great for making a versatile brawler

2. they have many stun skills, and deflection skills

3. if i go sage i will have two skills that heal me and soul of vengeance won't cost mp to deflect

i know in order to use any of the physic skills i'll need to have a soulsphere equip so I'm keeping the original soulsphere and hot keying it and my main weapon

for my stat build every even level i'm doing 5 str and odd levels i'm doing 2 vit and 3 dex so i can equip heavy armor and use swords

i know this isn't a normal thing that people do but i was wondering if anybody thinks this might work and/or anybody has some suggestions on how they would/have changed my build.

thank you for any input you have

    2 vit? so you plan on using a lvl1 sphere?

    well, you can do w/e you want but i dont see any point in that build.
    can it tank? no, the dps is pathetic
    can it dd? no
    can it aoe? no
    heal? not really
    any pvp uses? probably it could be used as some sort of CC in tw, maybe in a cata squad for buffs/purify... and that's only with g16 nirvy since otherwise r9 would be superior...


    for lols: http://pwcalc.com/cd908ed4c9b11376
    ~90k dps
    you only purge once #yopo

    You'll be cutting your damage to almost nothing, and since psys lack proper aggro skills you won't really end up putting all of that extra survivability to a test. Sure, you'd be able to solo stuff (read; physical things), but that'd take a long time, seeing as your damage output won't be that great. You'd have to learn how to swiftly change between sphere and any other weapon of your choosing if you wish to utilize any skills (healing, stun, dmg reflecting.), seeing as they're unusable if you don't have a sphere.

    Sides, psys can already solo craptons of things, even those that are a bit iffy for some arcanes. Just throw up white voodoo and take the damage if you don't manage to just oneshot whatever it is standing in your path.

    It might work, sure, but it wouldn't really be worth it in the long run.
