Duta's page

My friend has a Ratfolk Gulchgunner who's looking for another Ratfolk to get swarming with, and has convinced me to make a Barbarian to get benefit of the Ratfolk's FCB with the Barbarian.
Haven't had a chance to play it, or with him yet.

We've got a pair out here. Started as just mine, then another player got a ratfolk boon and copied my build so we could do it.

Gulchgunner 5, then a level of Swashbuckler (inspired blade of course). After that I had planned to just go fighter, but changed into Rogue once the other rat came along.

The general idea is to fire in melee range using a pepperbox pistol. Provokes (get a grit). They take the AoO, I parry with my tailknife, and riposte by shooting again. And because I'm swarming with the other rat, we're flanking and thus get sneak attack and hit bonuses. I think we came up with some way for this to give the other rat an AoO, but I can't remember what it was.

I use a pepperbox pistol. And have a tailknive. Took a level of swashbuckler to get parry/riposte, since it doesn't say the riposte has to be the same weapon.

Fire (provokes), parry AoO with tail, riposte with gun for second shot.

Also, it lets me have dedicated barrels for special bullets, and cuts down on the paper cartridges.

In round mountain I didn't need this hat to keep the sun out of my eyes.

Duta is an envoy from the Rats of Round Mountain. After (now) VC Elsi Ambustiana came through with her guns, he left to make use of some himself, though he prefers a pepperbox from right next to you. He's also the round mountain ambassador to the sovereign court, but isn't very good at it.
