[QUOTE="RedSwan78, post: 682464, member: 5951"] Hey all, I need help with Rogue feats for a 6th lvl Elven character. We've a new person in my gaming group (my gf!) and for the past 2 sessions she's been playing a Scout (it's a variant class out of the Mercenaries Handbook).. basically an archer-fighter. Problem is, she feels a bit useless she says, and that makes her uncomfortable in the gaming group. Through talking to her, we've come up with the fact that she thinks a Rogue would be fun and *useful* to play! We have about 5 hours untill I won't have internet access anymore (leaving) to get ideas so we can create her character later tonight (it's Friday, 11am pst, 2pm est, so we have till 4pm pst and 7pm est) She's going to be elven, we're using 32 point point-buy system. She'll probably buy either a 16 or 18 dex and elven will make that either 18 or 20. Since she's Elven, she gets to use the Elven ThinBlade as a weapon (in our campaign she does! :D hehe) and also since she's elven she'll get to use a LongBow instead of a CrossBow. Feats: We where thinking Weapon Finesse- Elven Thin Blade. Beyond that, she has 2 more feats for being 6th lvl. A possibility for another could be Improved Init.. because, well going first rules as a rogue.. hehe. That leaves us with 1 more to chose, possibly 2 more if something would be better then Improved Init? There's Point Blank and Precise, but, if she felt useless as an archer before, that's kind of redundant. But I'm not sure if she felt useless because that's *all* that she could do, or if she didn't like archery. ::shrugs:: Prestige Classes: Can anyone make any good suggestions for PrC's? Or would she be better off just *staying* a Rogue? Rogue's do get those cool abilities at 10th lvl and up I think it is.. (Opportunist, Defensive Roll). Anyone have any good suggestions? Please, if it doesn't come from the PhB or the "core" splat-books, we would need a desctiption of it and it's requirements.. Same thing for Feats as well. She's never played a Rogue before, and she's still just kind of learning the 3E rules (although she's played 2E). We've figured she won't fell "useless" because of all the things Rogues can do, open locks, find/disable traps, Use Magic Device, Sneak Attack in combat, etc.. Thanks in advance!
