[3.5] Melee with social skills?
What are all the fun melee classes with the social skills as class skills? I want to make my nobles warriors.

Knights and Bards...they aren't Full BAB, but they're the gods of "do as I say"

Clerics and Druids too; both have at least Diplomacy.

Knights, Paladins, and Crusaders for "courtly". But Swashbucklers have... other attributes.

Any class can use the Skilled City Dweller ACF (Cityscape Web Enhancement) to swap Handle Animal for Gather Information, Survival for Sense Motive, and Ride for Tumble. Originally Posted by PanNarrans

Re: [3.5] Melee with social skills?
I'm pretty sure that Complete Adventurer's three base classes are the only melee classes who are completely socially inept. Everyone else can either bluff, diplomatize, intimidate, or perform some combination of the three to maneuvre their way around social warfare.
- Chameleon Base Class [3.5]/[PF]: A versatile, morphic class that mimics one basic party role (warrior, caster, sneak, etc) at a time. If you find yourself getting bored of any class you play too long, the Chameleon is for you!
- Warlock Power Sources [3.5]: Making Hellfire Warlock part of the base class and providing other similar options for Warlocks whose powers don't come from devils.

Re: [3.5] Melee with social skills?
The PHBII knight doesn't get Bluff, Diplomacy, or Gather Information in-class. Are you talking about some other knight? Possibly one that sucks less? Originally Posted by Rasman

Re: [3.5] Melee with social skills?
What gets both Diplomacy and Sense Motive, at least?

Re: [3.5] Melee with social skills?
Bards, Monks, Paladins and Rogues all have both Diplomacy and Sense Motive without stepping outside the PHB. Clerics with the Pact Domain (SpC) also have them. Originally Posted by PanNarrans
