Master of Disguise

[Steve]

Thoughts on a build?

I'm thinking Rogue 11 / MoD 5 / Guild Thief 3 / Bard 11 (Inspire Competence +4).

It won't be able to hit a barn, but it could convince someone their mother was a barn.

Bard25/MoD5 Charisma based. Done

[Steve]

Grrr....Bards.

[mrm3ntalist]

Grrr....Bards.

I know right... there is no way to make a bad bard build. STr based, Int based, Dex based, Wisdom based, Cha based... they all work!

[Steve]

Okay...let's imagine a Character coming from a Land where they outlaw music, and sound, of any type. What would be a good split taking Master of Disguise as the theme?

But I want a CON based Bard!

How about this?

R16/IB5/MoD5/GT4

How about this?

R16/IB5/MoD5/GT4

Yeah, that could work for a high INT character.

I could also imagine MoD 5 / GT 4 / Rogue 11 / Assassin 10. Poison + HiPS could make the lack of BAB manageable.

[chad878262]

yeah, thought about the assassin route, but with this build epic dodge would be a big win and make RP sense (not much a fighter anyways, even for a rogue type)... though the assassin death attack save or die (basically) is also nice to have.

[Steve]

One could then swap out Assassin for Shadowdancer 10. It would be a fun concept to RP.

Speaking of fun RP concepts, one could imagine the fun of a Guild where the requirement was 5 levels of MoD. All the time trying to one up each other with disguises...lol.

[Planehopper]

I have been considering a warlocky flavor to a MoD build.

Perhaps even a bard/warlock/master of disguise.

It would likely end up being an RP build more than anything (cool in concept, weaker in play), but I like the idea anyway.

A charlatan who has made a pact with a fiendish source further his cons and trickery.

Epic PC 1: "I'm <Guild Masters name>"

Epic PC 2: "No, I'm <Guild Masters name>"

Newbie: "Awwww, guys, I thought it was my turn to disguise myself as <Guild Masters name>"

Epic PC1 and 2: "Shut up Roy! Everyone and their mother see's through your disguises"

Guild Master: "You all suck...."
