Hey guys, looking for some feedback.
So I find this class extremely interesting and want to figure out a build for it. I'm going back an forth on whether or not it would just be better to play a straight inquisitor or not. Right now I'm looking at Cavalier(Gendarme)2/Rouge(thug)1/Cleric3/Grey Gardener X. Not particularly in that order.
Human with focused Study replacement.

The plan would be to pick up shatter defenses at 9 and enforcer at 10 as a bonus feat. Have a merciful weapon so I can intimidate people every time I swing, therefore making them flat footed to the rest of my attacks and get sneak attack all while debuffing them. It sounds like a solid build in my head, but I can't help but to feel like I'm missing something or making this too complicated. I effectively get almost all skills as class skills, though I don't have a solid amount of skills to back it up. My AC wouldn't be great but I would have some healing, and the ability to use a CLW wand. Thanks to Cavalier I could dazzling display as a standard action instead of a full round action, pile that on top of the rouge's frightening ability and I can frighten a number of people depending on my roll.
It obviously would come up short against undead/constructs since I couldn't use non-lethal on them, and anything immune to intimidate.
I guess let me know if this sounds fun, or if I'm being silly and should just play an inquisitor. And with it's somewhat awkward start up, would this be fun to play in PFS?
-------------------------
Afterthought question, would the rouges frightening ability work with the enforcer feat?
Here is an interesting take:
20 pt buy
Str: 16
Dex: 16 (+2 from human)
Con: 12
Int: 10
Wis: 13 (+1 @ 4, 8, and 12)
Cha: 10
Looking to buy a +4 belt of phys perf, mithril full plate, comp longbow (+5 str), and a holy fauchard.
lvl beakdown:
1) ranger- combat ref, exotic weap prof: fauchard*, FE: undead
2) ranger- power attack
3) ranger- furious focus
4) ranger-
5) ranger- FE: evil outsider
6) ranger- Vital Strike ( you are the quientisential flanking buddy at this point!)
7) ranger- skill focus: sense motive
8) GW-
9) GW- lunge
10) GW-
11) GW- imp crit, enforcer
12) GW-
He ends up with +4 to hit/ dmg (instant enemy wand), 2d6 SA, 3d6 bane, 2d6 holy, the destruction judgement, and 4d8 weapon dmg (lead blades + vital strike. 80 skills, plenty of in and out of combat utility, and tons of flavor.
You can switch skill focus for whatever you like, I just like knowing when someone is lying to me... Fits with the whole judge/ excecutioner theme.

Only one problem with your idea, The grey Waden is not a legal prestige class for PFS. You can't use it.
according to the Additional resources page the only legal Prestige Classes from the Paths of Prestige book are these:
Presige Classes: Aldori Swordlord, Bellflower Tiller, Brother of the Seal, Champion of Irori, Dawnflower Dissident, Golden Legionnaire, Green Faith Acolyte, Hellknight Signifier, Knight of Ozem, Lantern Bearer, Magaambyan Arcanist, Mammoth Rider, Prophet of Kalistrade, Riftwarden, Shieldmarshal, Skyseeker, Sleepless Detective, Storm Kindler, Tattooed Mystic, Veiled Illusionist, and Winter Witch are legal for play.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! It can't be! It's impossible!
