So, and he's what its all about: The HK-47 Assassin-droid! (http://www.starwars-union.de/bilder/lexikon/2005091807.jpg) Now, the question is: How to optimize this one in D20-Eberron? Let's start on the basics: Race: Warforged (that's obvious - and yes, I'm aware that they aren't droids) Classes: Hmm...that's the first problem. I consider him to be rather a fast (ranged) fighter and sniper then a sneaky assassin...but that's just me. Any good ideas? Feats: Up to you! Weapons: The Armbow should be nice, although I really like the idea of a melee HK-47, too, especially because the Armbow only can fire 20 Bolts per day... You see, all is still very open, so feel free to be creative! Allowed Books: All official (please write where feats, classes etc. are from!) And one last thing: In this matter style goes over power. It is enough when he is efficient, he doesn't has to be totally Uber. So please, no strange templates and dozents of (Prestige) Classes. ;) I'm curious how you whould build HK-47! All ideas are welcome...Meatbags! :D Thorir

The rod is the equivalent of a gun, and the three wands (of scorching ray) can be burned all at once for a characteristic starwars rapid fire of laser bolts. With 3 CL 12 wands you're looking at 9 rays, IIRC, which means 36d6 damage.

Combine with a wand of Aganazzar's Scorcher or random flamethrower / freezethrower spell to simulate the built in droid components.

Thorir 11-15-06, 03:53 PM	OK, so much for the wands. :thumbsup: :) At the moment I think that HK-47 would agree with a Heavy Repeating Crosbow as standard weapon and wands for the little more firepower...;) A Bow would be more efficient - but it's definatly NOT Warforged-Style. Or would it be better to simply make him a melee-combatant? Also I think a pure Artificer can't fight/hunt well enough to represent HK-47... So we need a build that can: - track down an opponent - take down an opponent (using a HR Crossbow?) - use wands To me (I'm no professional and are a bit lost due to the flood of new books ;)) this looks like a scout/ranger with a few levels of artificer and fighter. Any good/better ideas on that? And what about PrCls? I've heard of a "Dread Commando"? Sounds nice - would it be suitable? Any further ideas are welcome!
