Gets her Improved Unarmed and Stunning Fist out the gate. From then on its levels of Fighter and Rogue -- Fighter for the feats and BAB, and Rogue for the sneak attack damage.Combine this with the Expert Tactician feat from Sword and Fist and the Unbalancing Strike feat from OA and you've got something pretty lethal.Her combo works like this: First attack at full bonus, normal damage. Unbalancing Strike robs the defender of his Dex bonus, which immediately (via Expert Tactician) gives her a second attack at her full bonus, doing sneak attack damage. Then it's her iterative attacks, each doing sneak attack damage to the poor schmoe.Works really well on Barsoom where very few people where much armour, so that loss of Dex bonus really hurts. She can unravel bad guys with the best of them.A little imagination (and a small investment in source books) is all you need...</blockquote>
