New guy needs help to make a crazy strong fighter


Advice


so my friends have recently introduced me to pathfinder and I am way into it now, But in our group there is this guy who has been playing for years and he recently joined the group and he is a total douch bag. he has ruined half of the game so far and I have had to make two new characters because he keeps killing my guys. So I need some advice on how to make a level 10 super crazy strong fighter that is impossible to kill. CAN ANYONE GIVE A NEW GAMER SOME ADVICE!!??


No character is impossible to kill in any game I know about but if all you want to do is kill this Guy and you have 10 levels, I would say play a rogue assassin, take sneak focus, weapon focus, poison your blade, wait until his character goes to sleep and do the dirty. Put highest in dex to, str, then con and if he survives should be easy enough after that.


What you need to do is bring it up with your GM and fellow players, tell them this kind of thing isn't acceptable, and make this behavior stop. Just building a character to beat his does nothing but turn the game into a pissing contest of "who can build the best PvP character and curbstomp each other?". Which is no fun for most players.

Why is this new guy killing off your PCs? Most groups frown heavily on PvP. Why is the GM letting him do it? Is he just killing off your characters or are the other players also his targets? And who invited him into the group - the GM or another player?


I agree Orthos but I am assuming his GM doesn't care what's going on or he wouldn't have come to us for advice. I could be wrong though. *shrug*


You'd be surprised how many people come to the boards before going to their GM.


Really? That sucks. In that case he should take your advice and if that doesn't work, try mine or leave the group. If all else fails, online gaming is becoming popular. I have run a few on my im and they worked out fine even with me being American and they were from Germany and Denmark respectively.

Yeah it is a friend of one of the other players and I think we have come to a majority aggreement that this kid isn't allowed to come anymroe. But our other buddy, who is friends with this ass clown, invited him to another session that is a "one off" from our original story. So in this next session I wanted to have a good character so if he decided to act tough again I could put the boots to him.


There is more discussion in my other post. I posted this twice like a dumb dumb and there are more respnses in teh ADVICE section. just FYI if anyone wanted to see what other people were saying.

Take some class that has an Animal companion, take Leadership for a loyal follower who will back you and pay most of your WBL as a reactive HIT contract to the local assassin's guild. So it may not stop you getting killed but that guy is dead as well. Even better RP your background as the younger brother of the campaigns most feared assassin's guilds leader - business is business but now the guild is out for his blood.

Is there any RP reason he would attack and kill you? cause if he is doing that kind of stuff then make sure that YOUR character has some valid reason to want to kill him asap and then just off him for exactly the same justification he has - sauce for the goose etc.

But seriously if this guy is an ass hat and like doing this kind of crap, when he launches his attack on you simply and calmly say - No this doesn't happen, only children get off on PVP stuff - and ignore any action he takes, initiative damage etc.
In fact from that point on ignore anything he says or does at the table until he apologises to you.
If the GM backs him then pack your stuff telling the group you look forwards to the next session you will be playing when this guy isn't here, wish them luck and leave.
If nothing else you have denied this clown the satisfaction of seeing you get annoyed, and you may have actually weakened the group to the point that they cant achieve the objectives they need to achieve in effect showing the group that the consequences of ass clowns actions is that no one has fun.
