[QUOTE="Darklone, post: 3399420, member: 1372"] Of these two, I would definitely take the first one. Perhaps drop strength to 12, but being a frontliner bard/rogue pretty often, I can tell you one thing: DON'T TAKE LESS THAN 14 CON! You might drop it to 13 if you think you can survive the first four levels or if you plan to take Imp Toughness. Think about two or three levels of Swashbuckler if it doesn't cause multiclass problems... yet this will cost another feat (Daring Outlaw) but you'll start with Weapon Finesse. So I'd do this: str 10 (with a minor boost item, you'll be able to become a good archer later) dex 18 (16+2 Elf) con 13 (15-2 Elf) int 16 wis 8 cha 8 Now go Swashbuckler for three levels. You'll have decent hitpoints and Int to damage is especially nice later with TWF (since off-hand damage is not halved). Get a wand of scorching ray for undead. You'll qualify for Daring Outlaw at your level 6 feat (3 swash, 3 rogue) where you'll get sneak attack for the added levels. TWF at level 3? I'd take Deadly Defense ASAP... good for extra damage against undead and anything else. [/QUOTE]
