[QUOTE="shulamyth, post: 5203958, member: 90852"] DM probably won't allow it because it conflicts with the core and it's not in the errata. Plus I've got DM bias. He was upset that I wouldn't let him be a kensai for another campaign. e_e so anything that would give me an advantage is out. He almost denied allowing me to have a cohort mount because just because of that. So it will probably be a standard action to cast with wands. I'm going to go with Changeling Rogue 2/Rogue 8/Swashbuckler 3/Factotum 2. I get a lot more benefits from Factotum then I do with the temple Raider. [B][I]StreamoftheSky.[/I] You mentioned that there were more effective ways to get sneak attack with a melee Rogue.[/B] I know flanking and hiding, but sometimes this group gets greedy with the flanks and when there's one open, they'll either take the spot or put a summon there. So the blink thing is a MAJOR back up plan. I also know about hiding and hide in plain sight, but dipping into ShadowDancer takes too many feats, and my DM won't let me be an assassin due to the alignment restrictions he has set. I've read that there's a magic item that allows you to hide in plain sight but I haven't been able to find it. With Blink they are denied their dex, and they have either a 50% miss chance or 20%. I have a weapon and armor that gets rid of the penalities--my 20% miss chance and the Armor bonus. I know that's a lot of money spent, I really wouldn't mind decreasing the price if you know a cheaper way. [/QUOTE]
