I have been working on a striker that could fill all the striker roles:
A. Ranged
B. Melee
C. Area of Effect (AOE)
What I came up with so far is a Warlock PMC Sorcerer.. 2 striker mechanics (Curse and Double Stat Damage), RBA via Acid Orb, MBA via Eldritch Strike and relying on AOE damage encounter powers.
It is generally thought that PMC builds are inferior to PP builds.
What I am asking for is suggestions on class / paragon path combinations that will do the following:
A. Leader enabling friendly
B. Striker damage benchmarks for Single Target and Multi-Target
Do not need full builds, just need some more ideas since I am LSM.
Thanks

The striker mechanics don't work together.
Barbarian|Sorcerer would be a viable option too, combining some of the best melee encounter powers with lots of close blast and bursts. You will have a hard time combining the charge package with dual implement expertise though.

He's PMC, not hybrid. It's a terrible idea, but it technically works.

OP, this is a good option. Fullblade and Arcane Implement Proficiency sounds right.

What.

Thri-kreen STR/DEX Ranger. Take their racial weapon proficiency. Swap your not-Twinstrike at-will for Rapid Shot. That'll do it.

Would you consider going hybrid Exe here to pick up the easy extra damage on the RBA's from Rapid Shot?

Ok, that wasn't precise. Howling Strike uses a two handed weapon, which can't be combined with dual implement expertise without feat investment to switch weapons fast enough. You'll probably lose either charge damage or arcane implement power damage.
The Ranger will have an easier life feat wise anyway.

It makes your character worse so you shouldn't do it.

Strait up Dragonborn Dragon Sorc does it.
Ensorcelled Blade and Dragonfrost at-will give you constant ability to be granted basics by a leader. With minor investment (MC Fighter for Draconic Arrogance and the light blade package) both can net you benchmark DPR on their own.
Huge Burst Nova in the form of Dragon Breath, Flame Spiral, AP Thunder Leap, Dragon Breath (7 damage rolls). (Ancient Soul, Nusemnee's Atonement, Draconic Spellcasting, Mark of Storm). That fills up your feats from 1-12, the rebreather thread will have more options for later (I suggest defenses)
