Build advice please: PM/Ninja Spy/Trapper

[Thaminor]

So... yeah. My Pale Master is sitting at 20 and is growing more and more gimpy as updates come out. I would like to TR him into something a little more fun to play. I was hoping to pull off a Pale Master II/Ninja Spy I for the combined sneaking and combat abilities. I mapped it out and it looks a little (really) gimpy, so I was wondering if people had advice of what I was doing wrong.

The rogue levels are a replacement for a similar build that used fighter levels instead. I wanted to be able to have trapping skills to get me through mid level where I seemed to be much less effective.

I know the enhancements are a mess. I am aiming for fire boosters, halfing guile, and the PM and Ninja Spy prereqs as well as Zombie, Wraith, and Vampire form. Pretty much the only damaging spells I plan to use are wall of fire and maybe scorching ray at earlier levels.

My resulting attack seems too low in the 30s, especially if I want to power attack. The AC is also sub-par, but I didn't have much hope for that in the first place. Survivability will be through miss chance, stoneskin, and self healing.

Does not include equipment.

That probably looked hideous to the experienced builder. Can anyone tell me what my general flaws are? I am mostly aiming for a character that is fun to play, but I still want him to be an effective combatant.

[strath]

It doesn't seem like you are too worried about DC for your spells, so why not pull your Int down to 14-15 range. You will need 16 to cast your highest level spells but you can easily reach that from enhancements, potions, or gear.

Once you have freed up some points you can drop it into con for survivability, wisdom to enhance monk ability, or STR if you decide to do any melee.

The only melee DPS palemaster build that I've managed to convince myself of is this build here.

Lich form is just that powerful in terms of offense and defense. It also has the benefit of being a lot more fun to level. Having access to higher level spells will also make a big difference even with a low intelligence. Spells like energy drain, power word:kill, symbol of death, black dragon bolt, polar ray and rays of exhaustion are all excellent spells that will be very useful. Finally, with more caster levels your SP pool is greatly improved and so is your self healing and offensive dots.

The reason the build that you looked at had fighter levels was because it is the only way to qualify for GTWF. With the level split that you have you never get enough BAB to get the feat (doesn't look like you have enough dexterity either).

Whichever way you go expect to be relying on Divine Power clickies to keep your BAB at maximum and expect to be doting to keep your DPS up.
