Hello to all!
I've been trying to come up with a 12th level build that can go solo through a campaign and survive, fight and be fun at the same time, and have been all over these forums wracking people's brains for ideas.
This is not carved in concrete; at least the concrete hasn't dried...
Choices were narrowed down to:
Human Paragon 3/Rogue 3/Swashbuckler 3/Bard 3
Bard 9/Swashbuckler 3
Human Paragon 3/Bard 9
Rogue 10/Shadowdancer 2
Bard 7/ Shadowdancer 5
I have decided to go with Human Paragon 3/ Bard 9 (Bard 9/Swashbuckler 3 was a CLOSE 2nd!)
11th level caster, free martial weapon proficiency with one weapon, extra feat and 10 skills of my choice as class skills! Just gonna take the skills that the rogue would get that the bard lacks (like spot for one!)
Just need to figure out how to get a little more damage from physical attacks, arcane strike is one I guess, but this build is about flavor and fun, not fatality (though fatality would be awesome!!)
Thanks to Rich Berlew for Order of the Stick. I've read almost all 800+ in the better part of 2 weeks! This character is inspired by "what if Elan was Bruce Wayne?" Where the "Elan" character is the face you actually see, but when sh** gets real, you see his true skill! LOL
Now just trying to figure out how to get as much damage out of him as possible. The other question is this: Bards are proficient with the Longsword, Shortword and Rapier. Extra damage would be basically "Crit-Fishing", Human Paragon gets Martial Weapon Proficiency with one weapon. It would be so cool to give this character an Asian feel to it... almost like this:

Thinking twin scimitars, but first, my numbers (all rolled): 18,17,16,16,15,14
Finesse seems to be the key here, but why not a deceivingly strong, small Asian girl? LOL
So, would you go with the "Graceful Fencer" as archtype, or the "Hard Bard" and give her a Greatsword? LOL
(Or just go with Swashbuckler instead, and trade away my 4th level spells for consistent INT to damage?)
Ready Set GO :elan:
