I'm in the process of making a cohort for my necropolitian focused conj. I really just wanted something to massively lower creatures saves while not particularly being able to be hit. I've got a 6th lvl build after lvl adjustment

Bard 1/ Pal of tyr 3/ hex 1/ dirgesinger 1

feats:ghostly grasp, requiem, devoted preformer

house rules: "once it's a class skill, its always a class skill" so no worrying about preform levels

my question is, is there a better way to go about lowering saves? Song of sorrow + aura of dispair + hexblades curse is a -6 to will saves, -4 to fort and ref. any items i should be looking for?

If you can bear a few more hexblade levels, iirc you have the option of taking dark companion (-2 to saves) instead of a familiar. Although I have to ask - how are you being a LE bard?

sorry, another house rule. alignments really don't mean much to us. lawful barbs(battleragers or whatever) military bards, pretty common stuff for us.

Aside from the house rule about alignments, that would be how.
