Hello again OPers, I have a new (not to the game, to us) player rolling up a character in our game, and he asked me what kind of class he would play if he wanted to model himself after Jigsaw from the Saw series. I told him artificer would be a viable option, but I'm concerned about how he would be effective in combat with the kinds of traps he wants to craft. I am personally unfamiliar with Artificers, so any help/advice/builds are highly appreciated. Thanks guys!

well there is the combat trapsmith from complete scoundrel if he's focus'd on traps

otherwise he can be a magic Jigsaw and use magic to make interesting traps

my one friend likes the animating a doll to look like a little girl with a letter that is crying, as the goodly paladin walks over to see what's wrong, she gives him the letter which reads GOODBYE wherein every letter is an explosive rune

Otherwise earthbound spell metamagic feat lets you cast spells as traps

Otherwise, hand him a spelllist and tell him to get creative
