NOTE: this build expects epic bonus feats (TWF) that the Duelist doesn't receive after the epic PrC update in spring 2025. If anyone fixes this build, let me know & I'll update it.
Swashbuckler 7/Duelist 29/Champion of Corellon 4 (Drowtrageous)
This build is designed to be a well-rounded melee powerhouse. AC will be unmatched in this build (at least among builds that don't include PnP Shifter), and damage output will be excellent as well thanks to Elegant Strike, Insightful Strike and Lolth's Meat all being applied to TWF.
What this build gives you: extremely high AC capable of breaking 60 without any equipment, armor, or buffs; full BAB; dexterity bonus to attack, AC, and damage (weapon finesse and elegant strike); intelligence bonus to AC and damage (canny defense and insightful strike); damage, attack and save bonus that stacks with each kill (lolth's meat); perfect two-weapon fighting; good scaling SR (drow).
Weak points: no healing to speak of making this build a good candidate for equipment with regeneration; saves are nothing special - I would prioritize equipment that offers increased saves and immunities for this build.

Note, make sure to buy off the drow level adjustment as soon as you can (level 6 and 9). For all this build's abilities to work you must 1) not wear any actual armor (clothes with an AC bonus and robes are fine) and 2) have fighting defensively turned on (enabling sticky combat modes is recommended).

I noticed there aren't many places to find epic level build ideas for the updated incarnations of the PRC. I love building epic characters in NWN and I keep my designs in a spreadsheet so I figured I would share them here for anyone else who wants ideas. Here is my first one. I also believe this is the best high-level NWN build I have ever played.
What this build gives you: full warlock invoking by level 25, 16 pre-epic BAB for 4 attacks/round; charisma bonus to saves and an additional charisma bonus to one save of your choice; access to shifter forms starting at mid-to-high levels for massive AC, physical stats, and immunities; the ability to infinitely heal yourself (undead shape and utterdark eltritch doom); doubled eldritch blasts (eldritch sculptor, quadrupled with haste); doubled eldritch essences (lord of all essences); damage, attack and save bonus that stacks with each kill (lolth's meat); devastating critical with either falchion or scimitar (your choice, falchion is best but is not in the vanilla game); good scaling spell resistance; and CHILLING TENTACLES!
Weak points: invocations only have a caster level of 25; invocation save DCs are not super high; slows down a bit killing constructs, undead, and other critical-immune monsters. It may be worth working in extra invocation somewhere to get vitriolic blast to deal with spell resistance and the critical-immune stuff, but lolth's meat generally boosts the damage enough for me. You could also replace Flee the Scene after level 11 with vitriolic blast, but I would read the notes at the end before doing that - it will essentially force you to primarily use smaller Shifter forms until level 35.

Some shape suggestions for Shifter if you can find them:
27: Asabi Chieftan, Dire Tiger
28: Brown Bear Companion, Bulette
29: Hill/Mountain Giant
30: Androsphinx
31: Battle Devourer
32: Old Red Dragon, Fire Giant
33: Demilich
34: Ancient Red Dragon
37: Dracolich (Best all-around form IMHO)
38: Mithral Golem
40: Prismatic Dragon, Adamantine Golem
Note, this is a great candidate for an undead template like necropolitan for the infinite utterdark eldritch doom healing mentioned above. Make sure to buy off the drow level adjustment with XP as soon as you can (level 6 and 9).
