But then I see that the instant kill save is based on As level. What to do? I want those feats. BTW what feats should I have? Thanks for the help.
Disciple 12-01-05, 12:10 PM	What about 3 rogue levels, 2 fighter levels and 3 assasin levels? You would lose some skillpoints but thats it. for feats it really depend on "what type of assasin" you want to play.You'll get a lot of sneak attack dices so you could go 2weapon-fighting. Or you could go for the "sneakyguy" approach.
Puca 12-01-05, 12:12 PM	Youre talking about a +/- 2 difference on your Death Attack? Not a huge deal. Eventually youll get a higher DC. But why do you want the levels of fighter for the feats when you arent sure of the feats? Decide how you want to kill: melee or ranged? Melee: Weapon Finesse and Two-weapon fighting Ranged: Point-Blank Shot and Precice Shot Cant decide: Improved Initiative and Blind-Fight
princeofcincinnati 12-01-05, 12:31 PM	Well you have to go melee for the kill. you cannot intstant kill using a range weapon. Believe me if you could, I would. I want the extra feats to improve his chance to hit. I was thinking things like weapon focus(short sword or dagger)
Dracspero 12-01-05, 12:39 PM	Isn't there a feat that can increase the DC of your Death attack? Ability Focus or something like that?
Disciple 12-01-05, 12:45 PM	Yup there is ability focus think its in monster manual. And you can insta-gib ranged, there's a fourth level assassin spell that allows it but... its fourth level :weep:
princeofcincinnati 12-01-05, 12:48 PM	yessss(drooling) yessss.
Puca 12-01-05, 01:10 PM	Well you have to go melee for the kill. you cannot intstant kill using a range weapon.Oops. Forgot that. I dont know that Id invest in Weapon Focus, but that really depends on how youd handle your (non-fighter-bonus) feats.
princeofcincinnati 12-01-05, 05:03 PM	bump-Anyone else?
Kakashi22692 12-01-05, 08:53 PM	you need to go with a rakasha charachter cause they get to shapeshift and have acess to lvl 7 spells. Go with a sorc/assasin. trust me from expirence, they ROK!! kakashi ;)
Rulebook 12-01-05, 09:54 PM	that seems like a horrible waste of an ECL 14 though. yo ucould do so much more with just a rogue5, assassin10 along the lines of assassin-ness. and thats by no mean optimized.
princeofcincinnati 12-02-05, 02:12 PM	So how would you do it? :D
Particle_Man 12-03-05, 01:49 AM	Perhaps Scout 5/Assassin 3, for 8th level. Focus on Spring Attack as a 9th level feat to combine with your Death Attack. With that, and the movement bonus of a scout, you have a head start to get away if your victim should prove so rude as not to die on you with your first blow. :)
princeofcincinnati 12-03-05, 10:23 AM	Hummm I've never thought of that.. (takes his books into the cornor and starts reading them..
Goreg Skullcrusher 12-03-05, 12:01 PM	Rog3/Ftr2/Ass3 has BAB+6 as opposed to your initial build which has +5. If you really want that high to-hit, it's worth not going to Rog5.
