[QUOTE="jeffhartsell, post: 2543164, member: 7748"] Something to keep in mind is that if you cannot sneak attack then daggers suck. That is the big weakness of combat rogues that cannot use a 2h-weapon. Once you fight stuff at the higher levels with DR and See Invisibility then rogues get hosed unless they can do decent damage without sneak attack. A good weapon for a rogue is quarter staff. You can TWF with it or 2h. If you have 4 fighter levels you can spec in it as well. An uber template depending on your alignment is Saint (must be good) from Book of Exhalted Deeds. It is a +2 level adjustment. But you get insane abilities. A good human saint rogue9/ftr4 with Use Magic Device is pretty sweet. Use Magic Device is a must. At the higher levels you can use all wands/staves and can use up to level 4 scrolls fairly easily around level 13 depending on INT/WIS. Some of the main uber saint powers: Fast healing (equal to 1/2 your HD). Immune to acid, cold, electricity, and petrification. Low-light vision AND darkvision. Resistance to fire 10. +4 save vs. poison. Tongues (alway active @ 14th CL). Protective aura free action at will; acts as magic circle against evil AND lesser globe of invulnerability. Also gets DR, holy power, and holy touch. BRO-KEN. But, if your DM allows it. We tried it for one campaign. Did I mention it was broken? [/QUOTE]
