[QUOTE="ruleslawyer, post: 1665952, member: 1757"] Does it have to be a melee rogue? I know that you have a character concept and all, but the fact is that elves are not well-suited for melee rogues for the simple reason that a -2 Con penalty and d6 hit die, in combination, do not make for a survivable combatant. Elves can make fine archer-rogues, but that's a different archetype. That said, if you absolutely must, your key is to "min" the heck out of your multiclassing handicap by taking beaucoup PrCs, while maxing the heck out of BAB and SA. The basic build I'd suggest is: Shadow-walker elf Rog3/Ftr2/shadow thief of Amn 5/Telflammar shadowlord 6 If you can use FR (which is required for the above PrCs anyway), take a wood elf for the +2 Str (although you lose out on Con, Int, AND Cha, who cares?).
