[QUOTE="Monty, post: 1098915, member: 13958"] [b]Duelist[/b] Here's the duelist. It's completely an experiment. The requirements (BAB +6, Tumble 5, Perform 3, and a couple of feats) make it hard to qualify for Duelist. Although Precise Strike is pretty sweet. With a Flaming (or Icy or Shock) piercing weapon, a duelist can do 4d6 with each attack. [b]Smackdown the Duelist[/b] Monk 4/Fighter 3/Duelist 10 [indent]HD 4d8+16 plus 3d10+12 plus 10d10+40; hp 230 Init +16; Spd 40 ft.; AC 34, touch 28, flat-footed 21 Base Atk +16; Full Atk +25/+20/+15/+10 melee (4d6 19-20/x2, [i]+1 flaming siangham[/i]); Flurry of Blows +23/+23/+18/+13/+8 (4d6 19-20/x2, [i]+1 flaming siangham[/i]) SA acrobatic charge, precise strike +2d6 damage SQ canny defense, elaborate parry, enhanced mobility, evasion, fast movement, grace, improved reaction +4, slow fall 20 ft., still mind SV Fort +18, Ref +27, Will +17 Str 8, Dex 26, Con 18, Int 20, Wis 20, Cha 8.[/indent] [i]Feats: Combat Expertise, Combat Reflexes, Deflect Arrows, Dodge, Improved Critical (Siangham), Improved Initiative, Improved Unarmed Strike, Mobility, Spring Attack, Stunning Fist, Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus (Siangham), Whirlwind Attack. Possessions: headband of intellect +2, periapt of wisdom +2, gauntlets of dexterity +4, +1 flaming siagham, bracers of armor +6, cloak of resistance +4[/i] I didn't feel Strength was all that important after Weapon Finesse and focused on Dexterity (and Int/Wis for additional AC). I may rework it to bring the AC down and gain a few points of Str damage. With this buildout, Flurry of Blows and Fighting Defensively the Duelist's AC jumps to [color=red]46[/color] with 5 attacks (+21/+21/+16/+12/+6) for 4d6 points of damage each. Up to 20d6 per round. Not too shabby. Any thoughts on tightening this one up? Regards, Monty [/QUOTE]
