[QUOTE="Shellman, post: 3413868, member: 16067"] I have played a good number of rogues and personally fell that two weapon fighting takes up too many feats to be reasonably effective. IMHO; The rogues poor BAB and penalties for TWF dont make for a good chance to hit after the first or secondary attacks. Feats are way too valuable at one every 3rd level to waste on something that produces too little result at higher levels. I would go at least to Rogue 13, so you get at least two of the rogues special abilities (available starting at 10th level). I like Crippling Strike (does Strength damage) and Opportunist. Obviously a high Dex and Con will be your most precious Ability Scores. Int maybe in there too if you want to be a skill based Rogue. Feats: Improved Intiative, Combat reflexes, Combat Expertise, Improved Feint, maybe Iron Will Races: Dwarves and Elves make great rogues, Humans are nice for the extra feat and skill points. Suggestion: the two biggest rogue killer's out there is the infamous WILL save, find some way to raise your will save! and low Hit Dice, so raise your Con too! [/QUOTE]
