So I'm trying to create a rogue (human) that okay at most things without any negatives.

Going for good at most dex based skills (duh) and a decent scout/face

He's a lover not a fighter though he packs a shortsword or dagger in a pinch but a 12 in con could be alright

I've got

10 str
14 dex 16 after racial
12 con
14 int
10 wis
13 cha

Thinking about taking a point out of int to boost wisdom to have a +1 on some checks and the +1 will

Ideas suggestions or critiques

Start with Unchained Rogue (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/unchained-classes/rogue-unchained). This gets you Dex to attack at 1 and Dex to damage at 3 along with other benefits.

I would go with this spread instead personally:

10 Str
16 Dex (H: 18)
12 Con
13 Int
10 Wis
10 Cha

You don't need a lot of Cha to be a decent face, you have all the skills and plenty of points to go around thanks to PF consolidation.

Alternatively:

10 Str
15 Dex (H: 17)
12 Con
12 Int
12 Wis
12 Cha

This gets you 18 Dex at 4, right after you get Dex to both attack and damage.

I always try to get at least a 12 Wis on any rogue or class with a weak will save. Will saves are by far the worst save to fail, particularly at higher levels. Every little bit helps.


10 Str
15 Dex (H: 17)
12 Con
12 Int
12 Wis
12 Cha

This gets you 18 Dex at 4, right after you get Dex to both attack and damage.

I second this spread. You could also go
10 Str
16 Dex (H:18)
12 Con
10 Int
13 Wis
10 Cha

Bump your wis at level 4, then focus on dex for the rest of the game. 8 skill points should let you max out almost everything you need and have a few points in all class skills. If you want to be more skillful, make wis a 12 and int 11. If you want to be more social, make wis a 12 and cha 11. Bumping either 11 to a 12 at level 4. I still think the wis is too important to pass up, though.

I like this one a lot thread resolved thanks for the quick help.
