Have a series of encounters that deplete their resources. In my years of gaming, too many DMs have let us begin encounters prepared and fresh. Desperation makes for good role playing, good tension, and extra resourcefulness.


The Mutagenic Mauler is perfect. I may play the mutagen as a drug he is addicted to. The Mauler simplifies the concept and will make it easier to play while I am learning all the new feats in PF.

Thanks for all the help with the build. I’m still open to thoughts on it, but I’m liking the way it looks.


That looks pretty solid. I’ll look up all the feats/abilities and see what he can really do.


Lemeres: That sounds like it could be a better plan. It’s not that I’m bad at math, I just don’t have the gift of optimization. A long time friend can look at a rule book for 10 minutes and make a character that dominates encounters. I tend to build a weak character and then beg to make changes later. I’ve also been away from d20 for a long time so a lot is new to me.

I hope to be joining a game with some guys from work. I’ll come in around 7th level. I want a Tyler Durden type of guy. Not a disciplined martial artist, but a brawler. A smooth talker. I can role play the personality but I don’t want charisma to be a total dump stat.


I’ve been binge watching Peaky Blinders and I want to make a knuckle bruiser with a bit of charisma. I looked over the Brawler class and it looks pretty good. My problem is, I have never been good at the math of character building.

So, how good is the Brawler? Can he keep up with his peers? And what’s a good build?


I love the Swashbuckler. But no guide...

Can he TWF or does he need all the feats for the dex based fights? I’ll have time look a little more this weekend.


I have been playing rpgs for a very long time, but it haven’t played in the last 10 years. Now the opportunity to play has come up and I am excited to get back into it. I played 3.5, but this will be my first Pathfinder game.

I am interested in playing a scoundrel. Not a bad guy, but one who can cheat at cards or dice. A guy who can hold his own ina battle of wits and with a sword. I’m thinking a dex based melee character with a reasonable cha.

Is this doable? I don’t need to be the baddest guy on the field, but I don’t want to feel useless in combat.

I don’t know the creation rules yet, so just an idea of how stats should be arrayed will work.

Thanks in advance.


I’m sure I made some lame characters, but it’s the ridiculous weapons that I remember most. In middle school, a friend and I made up a Dragon Slayer with a ranged Dragon lance attached to a chain. You can guess what book we were reading at the time.
