What are the strongest character builds you have seen and why?

By boggle2, in Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay

Hi all i was just wondering about what character builds you have seen and what made them stand out this would give us all a chance to really examine why certain things work.

Dont just limit it to characters use party sheets if you like and what was bolted to them that made them really shine.

Or anything else you think is realative many thanks.

The strongest individual character build i've seen is an Elf with a longbow, BS trained, and Rapid Shot. I don't remember the last time he missed on the first or second shot, even when enemies Dodge.

Excellent example and i guess if he was in the woods as well deadly...

Nice

Btw. a technical question concerning Rapid Fire (I believe it's what you mean by Rapid Shot). Do a dodge or block count for every single shot of Rapid Fire or just the first? And how about the success lines, can every single shot trigger the +2 damage on 3 successes (as I remember)? What about free manoeuvre on 2 boons?

We took it to me each shot was basically a separate attack, so no the dodge or blocks would only count against the individual shot you dodged/blocked. Also, the free maneuver/damage bonus would apply over and over again to each individual shot.

We also decided Rapid Fire was too powerful, there's a thread one of my players started on this in the rules forum.
