[QUOTE="Bauglir, post: 1331646, member: 6982"] I'm making up an archer character to play in City of the Spider Queen. Powergaming is pretty much the norm for this group (I'm expecting to have to keep up with 1, maybe 2 frenzied berzerkers in terms of effectiveness) so go nuts :). Stats are 18, 18, 16, 14, 10 8 (Assign, no point buy) Here's what I have so far: Race: Elf Starting stats: str10/dex20/con14/int14/wis18/cha8 (DWS=Deepwood Sniper, OoBI = Order of the Bow Initiate, Peerless = Peerless Archer) 1 Fighter1 Point Blank Shot, Rapid Shot 2 Fighter2 Weapon Focus: Comp Longbow 3 Fighter3 Far Shot 4 Fighter4 Weapon Specialization: Comp Longbow, +1 dex 5 Fighter5 6 DWS1 Precise Shot 7 DWS2 8 Oobi1 +2 dex 9 Oobi2 Manyshot 10 Oobi3 11 Oobi4 12 Oobi5 Zen Archery, +3 dex 13 Oobi6 14 Oobi7 15 Oobi8 QuickDraw 16 Oobi9 +4 dex 17 Oobi10 18 Peerless1 Improved Critical: Comp Longbow 19 Peerless2 20 Peerless3 +5 dex The character will be starting off at 10th level, for starting equipment I went for: Bracers of Archery Composite Longbow +2 screaming Mithril Chain Shirt +2 light fortitude Gloves of Dexterity +2 Cloak of Resistance +3 Bag of Holding (type 1) - To hold all the arrows :) (padded inside to prevent ruptures) Buckler & Longsword (non-magical) I know another player will be making a cleric (and he tends to memorise plenty of buffs normally) so I think access to GMW won't be a problem. So, does anyone have any comments or suggestions? [/QUOTE]
