Message: <blockquote data-quote="FlimFlam" data-source="post: 447175" data-attributes="member: 8567">Any advice on making a versatile Assassin?  I don't think the Archer idea is cutting it for me.  I was hoping to be a ranged assassin, well I guess more or less like a sniper.  But I am not too impressed with my options atm.  If I take the Assassin road, I will eventually be able to get an Assassin spell that gives me:Sneak Attack at 60'DarkvisionThe ability to use the Death Attack at rangedAnd a couple other nifty things.I forget what book it is in (T&B or MoF maybe) but that seems more or less what I was looking to do.So, are there any suggestions as to what other classes, combinations, feats, etc. I could get to make a versatile Assassin?I was thinking Rogue levels (of course) and 2 levels in Shadowdancer (for HiPS and Darkvision).  Then the rest 10 in Assassin.As far as character concepts, I was actually going to make him Lawful Evil.  He would follow the "code" of the Thieves Guild as well as his own "code of conducts" (like no killing children, but women are ok to kill.  Hey, there are some vicious females out there that need dispatching, just look at Hillary Clinton...  doh).  I was also going to make him centered around being a Mage killer.  Maybe have something in his background where he has a hatred for Mages.  The main reason for his, Mages have bad Fort saves which is what I would use my Death Attack on.  And since Forgotten Realms is a haven for wizards and such, I should always have a job =)So anyway, back to my original question before I started rambling.  What are some good class combinations, feats, etc?Edit - I should also mention we are using the point-buy system with 30 points to spend.</blockquote>
