[QUOTE="Celtavian, post: 1100536, member: 5834"] [b]re[/b] I am playing a Rogue 6/Monk 6/Ninja Spy 3. I have a 31 AC and use a weapon finessed wounding rapier and +5 Shortsword. I think I am fairly well-equipped, though my armor class could be higher. I have a 22 Dex right now and a 16 str. I'm not doing too bad on stats. I have 133 hit points. I always keep increasing my Tumble skill though I don't need to now because of special abilities. I do sometimes land some good hits, but that is what draws the creatures ire. I strike it with that wounding rapier and it turns on me like gangbusters. I don't have much trouble killing cannon fodder unless it is leveled giants or other similar creatures with high attack bonuses from strength. I do have alot of trouble when we engage big, bad ass creatures like Cornugons with piles of attacks that cause insane Fort saves against their attacks. Against the BBEG, I just let the fighters handle it and do what I can. Tumbling just hasn't come up. Sure its useful for getting in position, but more often than not at this level tumbling to get into position means tumbling into a death trap. If the party is fighting a few CR 15 or 16 creatures, they usually have attacks to spare to hammer me. It doesn't take many hits to widdle down my hit points. [/QUOTE]
