As you can see, I have maxed intimidate and UMD, plus quite a bit in balance and jump. Tempest at lvl 9, which was as soon as I was able to get it.

Future feat choices:
lvl 17 : Whirlwind Attack

lvl 18 : Force of Personality (requires +2 cha tome)


Thoughts?

[Aranticus]

why 1 rog? going 2 rog lets u have evasion

[Yuhjn]

****, i forgot that rangers dont get evasion until level 9... Grrrr.

Ok back to the drawing board for some modifications.

Now I need to decide if 2 rogue or 9 ranger is the best way.... hrm

[LionSwift]

Why not 8ftr/2rogue/6ranger? Then put levels into ftr at cap raise??

[Impaqt]

11Ranger/1Rogue/4FIghter.

Full TWF without Dex Requirements
3 Extra Fighter Feats
Easy tokeep UMD up.. Plus any other ROgue Skillsa ya want
30pt Self buff resists


GOing 8 Fighter over 8 Fighters gets you 2 Feats.... Well, Improved TWF and Greater TWF are given for Free so your not down any at all from your 9/1/6 Build

Really? I thought only TWF was free for ranger. I thought they had to buy all the rest of them. Hrm. If that's the case then yes I would like less fighter probably...


Hrm, Ranger doesnt get the toughness enhancments though. And I wonder if rangers will get superior two weapon when it comes out, and what level that will require.

In any event I wouldnt build this without the ability to get 19 dex with a +2 tome just incase I need the dex for superior when they release it with the level cap.
