Subdual Combatant: How Viable?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


I have long been thinking about a "Do no harm" Bounty Hunter/Vigilante.

The Sap Adept and Sap Master feats along with blugenoner or merciful weapons make that a very strong rogue build against anything which takes non-lethal damage.

However, the build would be useless against Undead and Constructs. Glancing through, everything else seems to take non-lethal damage even oozes and elementals. Is this right?

I would be very tempted to build a dungeon with this character.

I would be very interetsed in ways to make myself resistant or immune to non-lethal damage.

I am thinking full human, full rogue, using the rogue talents from favoured class.

Any suggestions??


I think this is a great idea. I only have one suggestion for you - make the ethos of this character such that he can deal lethal damage to non-living beings.

Human, elf, goblin, bear, dragon . . . non-lethal.
Undead, construct, elemental . . . use what works.

You'll have a lot more fun that way.
