Ftr12/Pal6/Rog2 Skill question

[Victor_1]

Hello community

I am currently thinking about using greater reincarnation on my 28pt fighter/rogue when it comes out.
And here's what I came up with. His main role will be tank, with DPS capability from Kopesh TWF.

As you can see, I tried to have little bit of search/disable with this character.
However, I am just not sure if his modified rank will be enough to later game contents.

DD&Search
14 Rank/5 Int(+6Int Stuff)/7 Tool/15 Equipment/4 GH/5 HV/2 Luck(Either reaver's head or prayer scroll/1 Enhancement = 53 with regular buffs.

Is this low-50ish ranks are worth having? Should I forget about traps and put em into Jump/Balance?
From what I searched this works on most of traps up to vale quests in normal, but no further.
So I would like to see the advice, for the feats&status selection as well. Any comments/opinions would be appreciated

#Oh, and sorry if this thread should belong to rogue forum, was just not sure about where to make thread.

most players will understand that you are an evasion build

the only rogue skill you should worry about is open lock

then put points into umd & jump, balance, etc.

/agreed

unless you can get max ranks or near max ranks it's not worth it. You might be able to get some traps on normal, or maybe even a few on hard, but you'll never know which ones. Your HV boost gets your skills close to the useful range, but in a trap heavy quest you might run out of boosts when you most need them. You won't be able to sell yourself as someone who can get traps reliably.

I have a character who will have the same class setup, but is warforged and I gave up during planning on having anything meaningful in search/spot/disable, the paladin and fighter levels just don't give you enough skill points.

Put what you can into Intimidate (if you will use it) UMD, balance, etc and maybe what you can into open locks. People will understand you aren't able to get traps.

I like to think of the rogue levels as Evasion Part 1 and part 2.

Thank you for your very quick responds and comments everyone
With the above advices, I think I'm going to stick with non-trap setup.

Thanks again!
