[QUOTE="Tidus4444, post: 4470111, member: 9297"] Ranger allows for a lot of shifting abilities that let you get into sneak attack position, not to mention the quarry once per day. Anyway, here's what I got. Bear in mind, our DM makes us roll for our stats, and I ended up doing pretty spectacularly. Level 3 Halfling Rogue Str: 15 Con: 13 Dex: 19 (17+2) Int: 11 Wis: 14 Cha: 17 (15+2) HP: 34 Bloodied: 17 Surge value: 8 Surges/day: 8 AC: 18 Fort: 13 Ref: 17 Will: 14 init: +5 spd: 6 pas insight: 18 pas percp: 18 attack: At-Will: Sly Flourish: Target: One creature Attack: Dexterity vs. AC Hit: 1[W] + Dexterity modifier + Charisma modifier damage. +9, 1d4+7 Piercing Strike: Target: One creature Attack: Dexterity vs. Reflex Hit: 1[W] + Dexterity modifier damage. +9, 1d4+4 Encounter: Dazing Strike: Target: One creature Attack: Dexterity vs. AC Hit: 1[W] + Dexterity modifier damage, and the target is dazed until the end of your next turn. +9, 1d4+4 Bait and Switch: Target: One creature Attack: Dexterity vs. Will Hit: 2[W] + Dexterity modifier damage. In addition, you switch places with the target and can then shift 1 square. +9, 2d4+4 Tumble: Move Action Personal Effect: You can shift a number of squares equal to one-half your speed. Second Chance: Effect: When an attack hits you, force an enemy to roll the attack again. The enemy uses the second roll, even if it’s lower. Daily: Blinding Barrage Close blast 3 Target: Each enemy in blast you can see Attack: Dexterity vs. AC Hit: 2[W] + Dexterity modifier damage, and the target is blinded until the end of your next turn. Miss: Half damage, and the target is not blinded. +9, 2d4+4 Sneak Attack: add 2d8+2 Abilities: First Strike At the start of an encounter, you have combat advantage against any creatures that have not yet acted in that encounter. Brutal Scoundrel Hunter's Quarry 1/encounter Nimble Reaction: +2 AC vs. opportunity attacks Skills: Stealth: +10 Thievery: +12 Perception: +8 Bluff: +9 Streetwise: +9 Intimidate: +9 Acrobatics: +12 Feats: Backstabber (sneak attack damage is d8) Warrior of the Wild (Ranger multiclass) (these feats were ones I was considering) Defensive Mobility (+2 AC against opportunity attacks) Improved Initiative (+4 init) Lost in the Crowd (+2 AC when adjacent to 2 or more enemies of bigger size) Nimble Blade (+1 bonus to attack rolls when I've got combat advantage) Weapon Focus (+1 damage) Items: Dagger Cloth Armor At 4th level, I'm planning to bump up Str and Dex, and using a multiclass feat to pick up a Ranger ability that lets me get into flanking position. I'm not sure whether I should get Cut And Run, or Evasive Strike... I'm also debating between the brutal scoundrel and the artful dodger. On the one hand, I get extra damage with the scoundrel, but on the other, if I really focused on it I could get +8 AC vs. opportunity attacks by level 4, which makes the Ranger maneuvering abilities almost unnecessary...
