[QUOTE="kengar, post: 448219, member: 3230"] Without min/maxing, I would say human or halfling. Human for the feats and skills, halfling for the DEX. Personally, I would lean towards human. Some Feats to consider from: Improved Initiative (for more Sneak Attack opportunities) Lightning Reflexes Dodge Point Blank Shot Weapon Finesse (Rapier) (for human) Combat Reflexes Skills: Take plenty of ranks in Spot, Listen, Search & Open Lock/Disable Device & Tumble (TUMBLE TUMBLE TUMBLE). Move Silent, Bluff, Appraise, Climb & Use Rope too. A rapier and a light crossbow are good enough to fight with, a chain shirt is a must as well. Rogues are [i]crazy[/i] with skill points, so take advantage of that with a good INT. INT & DEX are your friends. Decide what kind of rogue you're going to be. Urban thief? Wilderness bandit? Dungeon crawl/tomb raider? Make that your focus but don't totally neglect the other aspects. Don't worry too much about combat at first. Stick and move. Get your sneak attacks through surprise and flanking, use your crossbow when you can (Precise Shot and Rapid Fire feats when you can). Toe-to-toe is the fighter's job. Think sneaky and stealthy and clever. Not charging in like a bull. Hope this helps. :) [/QUOTE]
