I'm going to play in a campain with three players and I thought "Finaly a chance to play a factotum!" :smallbiggrin: and I want it to be a scout and kind of allrounder (and I don't want to include Bard, because I played one recently).
But I could need some help with the build.
All official books are allowed and Dragon/Dungenmagazine or 3rd party is allowed on a case-by-case basis.
Stats are really high (18,16,16,16,14,12) [we rolled 5d6b3 seven times, take the best 6 and rerolled every 1] but all in all it's not going to be high optimization except for the stats.
The other party members are a Barbarian/Wizard who wants to try out Ragemage (with good some goodies to make it worth from the DM) and the other one is a Barbarian/Cleric who wants to make some kind of melee shaman-thing and found a homebrew prestige class for his char.
(Alignment-prerequisites are mostly ignored for any purpose)
Starting level is going to be 2.
Right now it is unclear, if it will be a gestalt campain or not, so it would be nice, if you could include options for gestalt and non-gestalt in your posts and it would be great if you could list the sources.
Right now I got this:
Stats: Str 16 Dex 16 Con 16 Int 18 Wis 14 Cha 12
non-gestalt: Human Factotum1/Domain Focused Cloistered Cleric 1
Flaws: Code of Arms (DragonMag 324)
Living Faith (DragonMag 326) (both have RP reasons)
Trait: Quick
Feats: Font of Inspiration, Point Blank Shot, Rapid Shot, Darkstalker, Knowledge Devotion (from cleric)
Domain: Celerity (so I have a speed of 60')
gestalt: Human Factotum2//Fighter 1/Domain Focused CC 1
rest is the same as above but one FoI more
Is this good? Can it be done better without becoming too optimized? Can I somehow include more combat options and maybe becoming halfway good at shooting and maybe tripping if we need the battlefield control (or if shooting isn't possible at the moment)?
What should I take later on for levels and feats (I would like to stay as much from more casting away as possible and get many Factotums levels) ?
Whew, that are a lot of questions :smallredface:
Thank you for any help :smallwink:
Edit: Changed my mind on the shooting and wanting a tripping build now :smallbiggrin: everything else would be the same atm.
And please don't suggest Iaijutsu Focus, I don't want to use it with this character. :smallsmile:
