[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 7049193, member: 48965"] Well you could go for Rogue 9 at which point you'd get... Uncanny Dodge (Re-skin as Battlefield Awareness)...good for when the support character gets hit Evasion (Re-skin as Preternatural Combat Awareness)... again good for those unexpected hits that might take you out Feat: BM Die & maneuvers Insightful Manipulator: (I'd use this to better direct spellcasters against which saves are weak vs. opponents) NOTE: I'd be using bonus action Help to make sure the big hits by the Rogue or spell attacks land... and less about the dedicated warriors who logically would need less help as they progress in combat prowess (though it can still make a difference when disadvantage or other conditions are in play). Also it is used for any ability check not just attack rolls so any action that's not an attack, benefits from it. The other route is to go further into BM... you are becoming a warlord with a more combat oriented focus at that point with new maneuvers, more dice and more feats... [/QUOTE]
