[QUOTE="Mythknight, post: 7288176, member: 30717"] I am not really sure. Honestly they all seem fun (except the standard EB blaster). That was sort of the reason I asked to see what others are looking at in a build out. My initial thought, because it seems different, was to go hand crossbow build, eventually taking either 2 levels of Fighter or 3 of Gloom Stalker (to get Darkvision to free up the invocation, and Archery style to offset the eventual Sharpshooter/xbow expert combo). Overall the build looked solid, except maybe a little light on feats due to only 4 ASI from Warlock. Since it was a hand crossbow I also considered maybe 3 levels of rogue or so. My second thought was the PAM build, but again light on feats makes it tough. From a RP concept I wanted to be a gambler who made his living from that. Finding that he was taking money from successful adventurers he decided that the risk was worth the reward. He has a minor quirk of talking to his patron (spirit of a warrior who once used a sentient weapon) as if he was really there. I imagined something similar to the way Stephen from Braveheart talked to god. Originally I thought taking the Lucky feat as a Vhuman would suit the idea but again lack of feats/ASI makes that tough. Since my mind is all over the place, and the RP concept could work with any of those, I thought I would ask for help. On a side note if I was going EB blaster (very small chance), I thought of starting 3 levels in Shadow Sorc. The flavor of the Shadowfell and a sentient weapon from there being my patron seemed fun. I was going the opposite of the standard Sorclock and more of a Warcerer? Lockerer? Oh well, you get it. More Lock than Sorc. [/QUOTE]
