Gunslinger / Inquisitor Build


Advice


Hello, fellow players!

I'm about to start playing in a new campaign, and the character concept that crossed my mind was some sort of armed cruzader.

My 1st idea was a "Mysterious Pistolero" 5/ Paladin 5/"Mysterious Pistolero" 10, but I'm now thinking about a Pistolero 5/ Inquisitor(Preacher) 15 or some such.

What do you think?

The first 4 or 5 feats are a bit obvious...
Deadly Aim, Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot, Rapid Shot and Rapid Reload...

Then I'm not sure, maybe:
Weapon Focus -> Snap Shot -> Combat Reflexes -> Improved Snap Shot.
Then Maybe Extended Bane

I also thought about dipping a single level of Monk (Zen Archer) for Wis to AC plus a nice bonus feat.

What are your opinions and ideas?

Why not a Inquisitor of Cixyron Musket master? A single level of cleric to pick up channel, then take channel smite and guided hand. You will then use your wisdom for attack rolls with your musket. You can use a musket axe and be a switch hitter as you will not need a lot of Dex and can pump strength and wisdom.

Dark Archive

What book is Cixyron in? I cannot find him.

Would that be legal for Pathfinder Society play?


Can't find it either. Where is that from?

1 person marked this as a favorite.

Cixyron.
I am unsure if there is a restriction to which gods you can worship in PFS.


I see... Still Str doesn't offer that much for a ranged build, Dex, even if not used for attck/damage rolls, still increases AC, iniatiave, reflex saves and a lot of useful skills.

Grand Lodge

As an Inquisitor, you will use wisdom for initiative and numerous non-wisdom skills. You can also up your ac with armor and a buckler.
If this is not PFS, the Guided weapon property will add wisdom to damage.

Grand Lodge

Is this for an AP?


No PFS. Just a game with some friends.

How do I add Wis to AC? Guided buckler or something like that?

Grand Lodge

Wisdom bonus to AC from the monk will never keep up with armor and shields.


Ah, indeed. I already gave up on the monk dip idea... I want the Inquisitor features to come into play as soon as possible.

Grand Lodge

Well, first level can go to Inquisitor of Cixyron, take a channel granting Terrain domain, take Channel Smite and Guided Hand. Then 3 levels in Musket Master. Continue with Inquisitor. Later, pick up a Musket Axe(or musket warhammer) with the Guided enchantment.
