Rouge mechanic

[Zehcourier]

So second character build request in 2 days, going strong here but if any of you awesome peoples can help me i would appreciate it!
I'm looking for anyone to link me or make me a rouge mechanic build.
it would have to be pure rouge, and a 28 point build, and with the great crossbow as the main weapon. free internet cookies going to any warforged builds! (but not a requirement)
sorry for bothering any of you with this if you cant actually do it, but if you can you are amazing people with amazing-ness just oozing out of you, and thanks!
have a good day/slash night, and continue being awsome!

Do you have a DEX tome you could use with this char? Mechanics are stat-constrained, since you need DEX 21 to take all your ranged DPS feats, but you also want to max INT for dmg.

You can't swing a dead kobold in the rogue forum without hitting a Mechanic build these days.

This is a Halfling Mechanic build I did for a new guildy. 28 Points, no tomes needed, no VIP race or class, good selfhealing (dragonmarks + hip flask + scroll mastery III for pots/scrolls) and still a verry solid damage output with great crossbows. But it's a build for grouping as a lot of damage comes from the sneak attacks, you do double damage when someone else has the mobs aggro. Once you get a +2 DEX tome you can use Lockania/Fred to swap watchful eye for improved sneack attack.

So first off, you people are awesome, thanks for the help. second off, as of this point i don't have a dex tomb to use,
but still, you guys are awesome. thanks for the replies, i'm going to have some fun with these!

[Zehcourier]

Just so you people know, if anyone has anymore rouge mechanic builds your free to post or link them here, we already have 3, so lets make a stockpile!

[Kompera_Oberon]

[...] a 28 point build [...]

That suggests a ftp account, but I've done the same while a VIP, so I will only suggest that a look at the Harper Enhancement tree will be handy for a Mechanic.

Good build with easy self healing; however in the assassin tree I'd drop sneak attack training at tier 3 and take the core abilities dagger in the back and assassin's trick instead. You won't use dagger in the back, but with assassin's trick you further lower enemies' fortification, and, more importantly, you ignore their sneak attack immunity, allowing you to deal SA damage to every mob, including undead and constructs.

Also, here is an alternative to Lorianus' AP distribution, provided you can heal yourself with wands and scrolls, or are happy with outside healing. If you go this route you won't need the halfling dragonmark feat, just take other ranged feats earlier if their prereqs allow it and take precision at heroic levels; you also won't need the heal skill. Alternatively, you could swap out the dragonmark feat for skill focus: UMD, and take mechanic t3: use magical device 3 (you'd need to take a few AP from another tree for that); that way you'll reach a UMD that's usable to heal yourself earlier / more easily. If you don't have access to the harper tree, just spend the points in halfling for core abilities and/or guile.
