Any pointers? My concept was make a character with a crazy bluff modifier. Here's how:
18 cha
max out skill rank
skill focus
two other feats that give me a bonus to bluff (one's in the PHB and I think the other's in COmplete Scroundrel or Song and Silence)
the trait persuasive or dishonest (forget the name)
the trait illiterate (I'll just spend 2 skill points to become literate)
+2 racial bonus (changeling)
I'm going bard for he buff spells to increase this as well as the illusion ones. I'm just wondering if there are any pointers out there for people with experience for this type of build. The whole concept is being a great lier that can talk his way out of anything and con anyone. Also, what spells should I take and how can I manipulate them to their fullest? I'm not taking alter self. I'm a changeling with a +10 bonus to disguise who will be taking feats and other stuff to increase this so I don't have to worry about altering my physical image.
I'm not sure about what prestige class to take. Warshaper looks nice and I already have the shapeshift subtype. I like the general things it gives you (immunity to crits and stuns, +4 str and con, natural weapons). Those are nice for pretty much any PC, but I'm not sure if that's the direction I want to go. They don't get bluff as a class skill. Maybe I could work something out with my DM so they do. Also, thinking about taking some levels in rogue. I like the sneak attack damage and evasion. I'm thinking, 3 levels in that. Rogue is a changeling's favored class so no multiclassing xp penalty.
So, any tips from you playgrounders.
