Once you accept that, there are a few things you can try. Use the previously-mentioned PHB II ability.Try to disarm intelligent undead.Be a high-AC road block.Take out any living necromancers/wizards/blackguards.Get an undead-bane weapon.For levels and feats: I'd stick with Rogue until level 10. For the special ability, take Slippery Mind. That'll really help with Will saves. Or pick up Opportunist for extra opportunities to do damage--it works great with a (silver undead bane holy) spiked chain. For more will-save goodness: the usual buffs. A simple Protection from Evil is a must for undead, since it defeats the dreaded Vampire's gaze and other mind-control. If your party casters are lame then just get a wand of it and cast it yourself. Also pick up wands of magic missile and mage armor for use against incorporeals.</blockquote>
