Message: <blockquote data-quote="Colmarr" data-source="post: 5543171" data-attributes="member: 59182">A player in my upcoming Zeitgeist campaign wants to play a gunfighter, and we're currently leaning toward rogue as a class. However, he doesn't particularly want to rely on hiding for CA. He's also quite invested in the rogue's social class skills. The zeitgeist firearms rules are as follows:As you can see, using a firearm as a main weapon is quite feat-intensive. His human bonus feat pretty much has to be Firearms Expertise (for the reload minor), leaving him with one other feat at level 1. Does anyone have any ideas about how this character can be made to work? I've considered the Distant Advantage feat. I've also considered the rogue powers that grant CA until the end of the PC's next turn (especially Preparatory Shot).  I've considered building the PC as a ranger instead, but the skills issue might be a roadblock. I've considered creating a variant 'urban ranger' that replaces some of the ranger's traditional skills with more urban-oriented ones but the MAD of having to pursue Cha as well as Dex and Wis seems obstructive. I've even considered hybrid ranger/rogue for the former's striker damage feature and the latter's skills, but I'm a noob with hybrids and don't know how functional the resulting PC would be. So, does anyone have any input or suggestions?</blockquote>
