Warlock//Rogue Gestalt Build

[Netbattler11]

I'm making a character for a dnd 3.5 gestalt campaign, and I was considering Warlock//Rogue or something similar, using T.G Oskar's Warlock retool (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=212830). Starting at level one, just wanted to figure out where I was going to go with the build. I've never played a either a warlock or a rogue, so I'm not entirely sure what optimization options there are for either of them. My basic plan, such as it is at the moment, is to be proccing sneak attack with eldritch blast, presumably supported by the warlock's invocations for some utility effects. Suggestions on any parts of the build welcome.

Well, I would strongly consider Chameleon. With craven, damage should not be a problem, and chameleon opens up TONS of utility and power at your finger tips.

I would go

Warlock 20 / Rogue 5 / Chameleon 10 / X 5

Chameleon just offers tons to any build.

I can't help you out, but a lot of other optimizers can!

Thanks, guys. Zweisteine, I would like to point out that the first rogue guide you posted is for 4e, not 3.5.


Come to think of it, I should maybe have specified that it was 3.5 in the OP.

For anyone who is looking for information on this subject in the future, I decided to play a stealth-based build, dumping charisma. I pumped my Hide check up as high as possible (Whisper Gnome (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ex/20040807a&page=3)) and took Blend into Shadows from DotU which lets me hide in my Darkness invocation. I'll just sit inside my cloud of darkness and use eldritch blast to sneak attack anyone outside of it.
