[QUOTE="Unkabear, post: 3454812, member: 39373"] I am rather liking my skillful build, and though I chose a race with a LA I believe that there are few PrC's that really fit with rogue. Thief Acrobat is one, but being able to fly kills most of what that is about, Uncanny Tricksters & Invisible Blades synergize as well depending on your build. There are a few of us that are not building front line brutes and I think that Litch is someone to watch out for. But in all I doubt that there will be much outshining as play by post allows anyone so inclined to role play their character into the spotlight of their choice. A well built healer/Bard/Dragon Shaman/Divine Mind can steal the spotlight easily. Even though a foe doesn't fall with an attack, there is a difference between vs I post this from a rogues perspective because I enjoy playing them more than fighters. This action may have used a few skills & skill tricks but with a bit of flair any action becomes something that draws the spotlight. Every post has that potential. A bard singing is providing everyone with a modifier that may mean the difference between using partial power attack and full power attack. A healer can patch up the wounded and get a party ready for the next fight, or take out hordes of undead. A well built Cleric can stand toe to toe with a fighter with a few moments notice, and Divine Metamagic is nothing to sneeze at. Even though you are not built for power melee doesn't mean that you should back out. There are plenty of ways to shine in this game. And I personally do not oppose a character with a 100ac on my side. especially if we can bottleneck the opponents. Set someone at the front to keep them at bay while the others whittle away at them. Though we are starting as strangers, we are coming together for a common purpose and not to compete in the arena. Just my two cents. [/QUOTE]
