[QUOTE="Viktyr Gehrig, post: 4914264, member: 9249"] You've got a lot of stat points to work with here. I recommend getting as much out of them as possible. I've recommended this build recently, but it's good for your situation. (Actually better, since you haven't said anything about being unarmed.) Changeling Rogue 3/Swashbuckler X/Ninja X/Invisible Blade 5. Str 10, Dex 17, Con 12, Int 16, Wis 15, Cha 14. (At first level.) Feats: Point Blank Shot, Weapon Focus (dagger), Far Shot to qualify for Invisible Blade; Daring Outlaw (Rogue and Swashbuckler stack for sneak attack dice). You have Evasion, add your Int and Wis bonuses to your AC, plus a couple small bonuses. You add your Int bonus to damage with your dagger. All of your class levels give you either sneak attack or sudden strike and you feint as a free action in combat so almost all of your melee attacks qualify. If you're going epic, take Martial Stalker so that your Ninja levels count as Fighter levels for the purposes of Weapon Specialization. Take Weapon Specialization, then Daring Warrior, so that your Swashbuckler levels count as Fighter levels, too. [/QUOTE]
