Drow Rogue/Fighter/WM

[falafel]

Hello!

I was thinking of trying a Roman legionnaire inspired drow fighter with short sword (Gladius style) and board. Hoping to get Dale sword at some point to get +5 enchantment bonus with rogue weapon proficiency bonus AB.

Feel free to give me some suggestions for improvements and such. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Is the rogue bonus AB added on top of the weapon bonus AB as it is with Fighter level 23 bonus? You get four bonus rogue feats with that build, what would you do with them? I'd at least suggest taking ESF:Discipline. Set trap 32 is overkill, because you'll have a hard time reaching epic trap DC 65 with a STR-based build. However, deadly acid blobs only require a DC of 35 to plant. This build could work better DEX-based but the damage is real with this one. And definitely KD as the last feat pre-epic, you'll want as much of your sneak attack to sink in as possible.

It is. You get a +5 masterly damask weapon with 24 rogue levels.

Ewww, bye bye mages.

Getting the dale sword might be a problem.

I made a similar build to this one on a different server that had a scythe. He was hitting 300+ with sneak crit. Might not need to reach for the +5 Dale swords with that type of damage. AC was of course always a problem with it.

Thank you for your input. I think I will take knockdown as you suggested. I think I will have to take Epic Skill Focus: UMD to use Dale sword with 50 UMD requirement, but it could be possible to swap one of the other epic feats (Epic Weapon Specialization or Armor Skin) for Epic Skill Focus: Discipline.

For the skills, I could reduce the set trap and put the points into cross class spellcraft. What do you think about the other skills? The amount of Open Lock, Disable Trap and Search about right?

For the rogue bonus feats, I was thinking: Defensive Roll, Improved Evasion, Slippery Mind and Crippling Strike.
