Unread post by Storm Munin »

I know, I know..but why is it flawed?

Race: Drow
Class: Rogue (Final Build: Rogue13, Assassin8, blackguard 4, frenzied 5)
Weapon: Scythe (why not)

Str: 17 (21)
Dex: 13 (destined to wear mfp)
Con: 8
Int: 16
Wis: 8
Cha: 17 (21)

Pro:
Epic precision, Expose weakness, IPA, EDM, 12d6 sneak, deathward rage, decent saves (lowest above 15) and HIPS.

Con:
HP slightly below 300
AB is meh with IPA on
and... yes what?

Ugly min-maxing. :P

Also, I think it might be more effective with fighter12/bg4/fb5/assassin9 or fighter14/bg3/fb5/assassin8. You won't get evasion and expose weakness, but the AB will be much better. And the damage per round will probably be better.

Drow farmer, though? Mushroom farmer? With scythe?

Rothe controller.. goblin slave aided they breed to insane numbers..
Zarmoon would go bonkers when the rothe herds spilled into the mushroom groves if they werent kept in check.


That fighter based thing:
Also loose a lot of sneaky, epic precision, not to mention skill points.

Sounds like a surface farmer to me. ;)

Rogue and Assassin are medium BAB progression classes and you are missing Fighter's Weapon Focus line of feats. If you are short on feats, always take Focus over Specialization.
