Most powerful non-magical class combo

[Ravilah]

What, in your opinion, is the most potent non-spellcasting combo of classes for a gestalt campaign? I suppose really minor-level spellcasting would be okay--like for a ranger or paladin--but not as a major feature of the class.

I just wrote up a ranger/fighter and he is MEAN!

Fighter/Rogues or Ranger/Rogues hit often and deliver lots of sneak attack damage.

The Fighter/Rogue has the edge in twinked-out combat feats of course.

Completely mundane, or just non-spellcasting? What about Bo9S material?

Ultimately it boils down to maximizing benefit. Having one side with full BAB, and the other side that sacrifices BAB for skills or abilities.

So for example a Barbarian|Rogue. Especially if you start taking class variants into account, such as whirling frenzy and a spiritual totem.

I've always been a fan of the Bbn/Ftr combo, especially with Extra Rage (and Whirling Frenzy from UA).

I'm fond of my Rogue/Warlock build... eldrich blast, which is a touch attack, plus sneak attack dice. My 6th level gestalt character with that build is doing 5d6 per attack, and pretty much always hits because it's a ranged touch attack.

 

[sckeener]

gestalt scout/fighter would probably kick....

 

[Ravilah]

What if I were to tack on that the character would also be a remarkably intelligent minotaur?

How do you reliably get sneak attack damage on a ranged attack? Or do you mean when attacking from surprise to start the combat?

using the warlock invocation that creats darkness and the other one that lets you see through it.

or using their invisible invocation but then things can see you if they have see invis etc

the first is more reliable

I may be full of it, but I vote for barbarian/marshall or fighter/marshall.
