L3: Displacement, Haste, Find Traps, Keen Edge, Wounding Whispers
L4: Hold Monster, Improved Invisibility, Neutralize Poison, Stone Shatter, War Cry
L5: Ethereal Visage, Greater Dispell, Healing Circle, Lesser Mind Blank, Wail of Doom
L6: Dirge, Energy Buffer, Least Spell Mantle, Mass Haste
NOTES:
-Max AB is 93 at 60 with +12 gear.
-Saves: 59/58/55 (Yea, I know)
-The spells listed above are just the ones I picked. I'm sure you could argue the choices but some guidance is better than none.
-This char's max song is level 62 therefore you will need 124 Perform to max it out.
-The reason I put Light Hammer/Mace for the feats is that they are both viable in my opinion. The difference is that Light Hammer is 1d4(20)x3 and Mace is 1d6(19-20)x2. So it really comes down to what you personally prefer.
-You have to wear light armor to get the high conceal bonus from Displacement.
-You'll get IoF, Girding, and the Limbo return epics at level 40 with this build.
-I'd suggest either Saves or Strength artifact, I'll be using Strength myself as the side bonuses are much better on it.
