Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
not in my group :(
seems every one works solo except one other guy(who plays sub par characters) and me. the others will build singly powerful(to them) persons with the ODD helpful for the party thing, i like to build things that would well with a party and have RP value, not just "ive got a schticki use all the time"

Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
That's sad. The point of building a group is kind of to work together in order to achieve greater results.

Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
that might be the point of it but not how it usually works :(
this is what i work with as finding a gaming group around here is very hard :(
so with RAW i can shadow ride(dim door with mount) to so legal location, full attack(shadow pounce) with a full attack that will(should) be with sneak attack/sudden strike and still have my mount attack as well?

Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
I'm going to assume that I would meet them or i just would wait until I did meet them before shadow riding in to position. as for ToB I think i posted OP it was banned along with psionics. Small creatures due to personal dislike where off the drawing boards as well.
thank you for the help/ideas/thoughts, if there are more then keep them coming!

Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
If that's the case...
Warlock's Flee the Scene (Dimension Door +Invisibility for the flatfooted) would be nice, but they don't ride as a skill.
You are going to need a way to flank, it's still the most viable option. Screw it. You see a teammate adjacent to something, just teleport for a flank. Someone on your team has to be melee, and you don't need their consent not to suck.Avatar of Rudisplork Avatar of PC-dom and Slayer of the Internet. Extended sig

Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
my thoughts on a build once held warlock then though against it as i need to many levels to get it.
so i thought up rogue 5/ crinti shadow marauder 5/ shadow dancer 10.
shadow jump is more triggers a day and further distance, HiPS, shadow companions for flanks. as for the ride 8 ranks, jack of all trades was my best thought on that one
ranger was another option but then no SA dice...
SA fighter also crossed my mind but hide and move silently are missing...

Yeah, lock works better with Telflammar Shadowlord.

EDIT: You should find a way to get an At-Will Teleport. Not ever being limited by the number of times you can Shadow Pounce will be a great boon. Blink Shirt is the best bet. Even if it's Dimension Door, get the Move action Chakra Bind will let you do other things with your standard action like use wands or drink potions.Last edited by Snowbluff; 2012-11-05 at 11:35 AM.

Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
thug fighter doesn't do anything for me as it just adds urban tracking a few skills to my list that i don't need and 4+ skill points
hmm, jack of all trades is not what i thought it was... whats the feat that makes all skills class skills for humans and dopplegangers?
i think ranger is going to end up being the path i have to follow :( no SA makes me sad :(

Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
You might want to show them what a tactical melee combatant looks like using only PHB, DMG, and SRD, maybe? So they can get a solid baseline of competency?

Re: Mounted Sneak Attack?????
as another option instead of rogue for the first 5 levels, can a scout use dim door to trigger skirmish?
if so, then all the skills except handle animal need to enter are class skills, and handle animal only needs 4 ranks anyway...
