[QUOTE="Fingers Boggis, post: 1614288, member: 15336"] I definately wouldnt be taking the CW samuri, dont like it and I dont want to duel weild making many of its class abilities useless. I wanted to use sneak attack with regard to feinting which i don't think can be considered dishonourable, its just another way of gaining an edge in combat, sneak attack is not the same as 2E backstab indeed i often find the name sneak attack misleads. Also I think in a small group Uncanny dodge will be useful if we come up against mass combat (i dont think itd likely to happen but always be prepared and all that). I think, Syntallah, you mistake my intention for the rogue levels. We're not playing rokugana nd i haven't got the rokugan book but whats the courtier like? Also seen as its not rokugan I won't be able to be a Scorpion samuri but thats the kind of concept i was thinking, a character to whom personal honour is not as important as the good of the family and empire. This would also allow tolerance of the mage/rogue though he's said the majority of things i could find disagreeable will be done without my character knowing, thus avoiding conflict and still achieving any mission. I realise i should have given some of the information above in the earlier post to make things clearer but thanks for all responses so far and please keep them coming. One thing im curious about is why the "heavy" recommendation against Iaijutsu Focus, i was under the impression i could use it to gain more damage in the first round of combat? cheers Fingers [/QUOTE]
