[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 3256881, member: 63"] Hmm. Well, if I can't use rage, then maybe I should consider tossing in Swashbuckler and using a finessable weapon. I don't want to go two-scimitars mostly because of the cost of enchanting both, but let's see how it turns out. Elf Swashbuckler 1/Fighter 4/Dervish 4 Str 14 Dex 20 Con 12 Int 14 Wis 8 Cha 8 HP 67 (Greyhawked, +11 swashbuckler, +28 fighter, +28 dervish) Feats: Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus (scimitar), Dodge, Mobility, Combat Expertise, Weapon Specialization (scimitar), Two-Weapon Fighting, Melee Weapon Mastery (slashing), Spring Attack Two +1 scimitars (4630) +2 mithril breastplate (8200) +2 gloves of dexterity (4000), total dex of 22 +1 ring of protection (2000) +1 amulet of natural armor (2000) +1 dusty rose ioun stone (5000) Boots of striding and springing (5500) 4,670 gp to spare. Maybe I'd buy a hat of disguise so I can look like a purple-eyed drow. ;) Total AC 27 (+6 Dex, +7 armor, +1 ring, +1 amulet, +1 ioun stone, +1 class). My attack bonus is +19 (+9 base, +6 dex, +1 weapon, +3 weapon focus and melee weapon mastery), and my base damage is d6+7. While dual-wielding, it's +17/+12 (d6+7, 18-20/x2) and +17 (d6+6, 18-20/x2). While in the dervish dance, these go up by +1. I dunno. My AC is huge now, but my damage has gone to the poop shoot. Is there a way to boost damage I'm missing? Would a level of scout be worth the BAB hit and the loss of one level of dervish? Are there any full BAB classes that might be useful? I think I'll just keep the build as it was before, and just not fret being unable to use both buffing abilities at the same time. And I will make sure to roll attacks and damage dice at the same time, to accelerate play. ;) [/QUOTE]
