Okay, so about a month ago after me my fellow friends finished our campaign we came up with an idea for a pvp battle before we start a new campaign. here are the stats for the charcters.
gold to be spent 1760000 or less
level 40
feats 20
ability score increases 10
1st ability scores(before picking race cannot go over 20)
For my build I was plannig on running a Tiefling (sniper rogue 20, shadowdancer 10, And assasin 10) I would like to use stealth but i have a felling they've planed for this already. and i don't know how to build my characters any other way.
As for my opponents I know they'll be
1. Magus/eldritch knight/stalwart defender
2. Inquisiter/Unkown
3. Barbarian/Fighter (three of these)
6. ninja/monk
7. Ranger/horizon walker/nature warden
8. the terain our GM made (no info total secret from him)

You should show up those Barbarian/Fighters by going:
10 RageChemist-Vivesectionst/10 Master Chymist/20 Barbarian Archetype of your choice.
Make sure you pick up Raging Vitality.
Go all the way through the Two Weapon Fighting Tree, Making sure to pick up Double Slice and Two-Weapon Feint so you can use your Sneak Attack Damage (also try and convince your GM that Bomb Thrower Class ability stacks with sneak attack so you can get a full 10d6 for each of your attacks)
Go all the way to Greater Eldritch Heritage and pick a Bloodline (I say Elemental so you can get either the Orc or Elemental Bloodline Powers (Orc gives your more Str and Damage, Elemental gives you better movement types like burrow if you find yourself in a bad situation).
Then take your standard array of other feats such as Power Attack, Weapon Focus, ect.
Make sure to get Boots of Haste and a Belt of Physical Perfection +6, a Head Band of Mental Superiority +6, Manuel of Bodily Health +5, Manuel of Gainful Exercise +5, Manuel of Quickness in Action.
You do all of this right and once you use your Rage and Mutegon, you will be looking at a Str and Con Score of +50 each, with about 14 attacks (if I did my math right) while hasted and using two simple light weapons. You also get some pretty cool extracts (like Twin Form, just drink that burrow into the ground and have the new you run around and cause havoc and when he dies pop up make another and then repeat).
It would also help if you are a Half-Orc or an Orc so that way you can go to Deathless Zealot and you can keep fighting (and taking Full Round Actions) while at negative hp. Another thing that would help is getting a weapon with a huge Crit range regardless of the damage that it does (you are looking for a static modifier from Str rather than a die roll for damage), then add Improved Critical or Keen and you will deal x2 or x3 your Str Mod on quite a few attacks since you will be getting about 14 in a full round action.
These are just my suggestions though, I know its not what you had asked for but you would be unstoppable!
What were the base stat rules? 25 pt buy or rolled?
The ninja capstone ability is 'can't see me', so I don't think a stealth build is the way to go.
Why not be the maxed out spellcaster?
Looking at the building rules, it seems you could go:
Cleric 10
Wizard 3
Mystic Theurge 10
Fighter 7
Arcane Archer 10.
I believe that comes out to:
+30 BAB
+21 Fort
+14 Reflex
+25 Will
Cleric caster level 20
Wizard caster level 20
and all the bonus special effects from Arcane Archer and Mystic Theurge.
Holy Boom Spell, Batman!!
edit: Nevermind, it's Limited Wish, not Wish.
Alternately, the genie bloodlines capstone for sorcerers is Wish once per day.
That's alot of "I wish I were (stronger, faster, tougher, smarter, wiser, or more likeable) for stat bumps.
Switching sorcerer for wiz would be Sorcerer 4/Fighter 6 instead of Wiz 3/Fighter 7.

Pala/Synthesist/Oracle (Lore)/whatever - something like that could be kind of overkill.

This is wrong. Capstone abilities come from 20th character level, not caster level. This mistake woke me up this morning.
Can I recommend Conflict PVP for Pathfinder for your GM?

I think a caster could rock that show. While their saves is going to be through the roof, spells such as Time Stop will give you a great advantage.
Level 20 diviner wizard is a great way to go to get high initiative (although the horizon walker is going to be difficult to match if he is in his favored terrain).
Be a Dhampir and spend some of your gold to have a bunch of Clones prepared. You can ignore the negative levels, but will die when they equal HD, which basically mean that you have 10 additional lives.
Pala/Synthesist/Oracle (Lore)/whatever - something like that could be kind of overkill.
I second that, and since you need only a few levels of paladin and oracle i suggest going for cavaliers levels for the rest (after the synthesist levels of course).
If evil alignment is allowed you can go with antipaladin/synthesist/oracle of lore/barbarian.
I strongly suggest a Synthesist/Kensai.
Antipala/Synth/oracle(lore)/Barb - ragecycling overkill
are you serious?
You could die against level 1 wizard/sorcerer with color spray, you know that...?
I don't want to build this all out, but heres my idea.
Pistoleer, gunslinger 20. For Sig deed and true grit take up close and deadly(extra 5d6 per bullet), twin shot knock down (if you hit twice they are prone), and bleeding wound(allows you to add dex twice to dmg per hit). Also make sure to go down the improved snap shot tree. This allows you to threaten 10 ft away with you gun (1d8+5d6+ dex x2)
Then as people said caster are killers so I would either do wiz10 and eld knight 10, which gives 9th lvl spells and equiv of 10 lvl fighter for opeing up those feats.
OR
7 wiz 3 clr and 10 mystic for 9th wizard spells and 7th cleric. Which nets you heal.
The twin shot knock down is key, if they have to spend a MA getting up that hurts them.
I strongly suggest a Synthesist/Kensai.what's knesai?
evil is allowed. hence the asassin levels from my previous plan.
Antipala/Synth/oracle(lore)/Barb - ragecycling overkill
Antipaladin 2/Synthesist 20/oracle (lore) with lame curse/Alchemist 1/Barbarian 16
Per RAW Manuals of dex doesn't stack with eachother, since they grant the same bonus type. But if your GM rules it, that is something to go on. I would surely make save-or-die spells impossible to save against...
If I had the opportunity to build a lvl 40 rogue/ranger/horizon walker, I would throw as much into favored terrain as possible to get insane bonusses to to-hit and damage. Since you can take the rogue talent as many times as you got talents for, and you can get them extra times through feats, that is really all you need to be able to deal insane damage.
You'll want a wisdom of at least 16 to be able to cast instant enemy, if your most favored terrain doesn't include them. Pearls of power will grant you enough
If your gm allow it, I would build such a character with a rod of wonder, shaking it each morning, for being reduced two steps in size to become diminuitive (Only permanent drawback is changing color a lot).
Ok this is quick and based on the idea that the GM will allow arcane archer to work with guns, IMO no big deal.
20 Gunslinger (twin shot knock down, bleeding wound, up close and deadly)
1 Shadow dancer (for your hide in plane sight)
7 wizard
2 arcane archer
10 eld knight
So this nets you a couple things.
Using your stats..(dex mod 42)
BAB 35
77 base to hit, take -8 from deadly aim, -2 from rapid shot, -4 from firing both barrels of your double barrel gun each shot
63/63/58/53/48 all against touch ac
Damage per shot (since your firing 2 bullets each time) 2d8+84+5d6+16, this is per shot and you have 5.
Now for combat, I would start by casting time stop
use imbue bullet to shoot an anti magic field at the feat of the person.
Then next round cast wall of force directly around the antimagic field( not covering the top)
then cast fly
At this point just fly up and rain down death on your opponent. If they some how get our use hide to move around. I have a hard time believing anyone can live through a single round of that damage. Also every time you hit twice they are knocked prone, no save
Edit: opps that would be 2d8+168+5d6+32
Opps you would have to do wall of force and fly first wouldnt ya
Well since this is a one time thing, I would leave it as written and just use the bow to shoot the antimagic. If not probably wizard or maybe 2 levels Alchemist to get dex from the mutagen.
If your dropping levels due to cohort I would probably drop the arcane archer and shadow dancer. To keep the 9th level spells
Lesser meta magic rod of quicken for dispells is key, for things like windwall. That was the idea of antimagic. 1 on 1 in that antimagic field he would still win since the books don't go away
gear
12 manuals of quicknees in action(+5), 100 arrows, ring of chameleon power, cloak of elven kind, belt of incredible dexterity +6, elixer of hiding, 4 dust of diappearance
Manuals do not stack. This is a problem for your build. You could have one for each of the stats, but the highest Inherent Bonus is used for any Manual used on any specific stat.
Your Will Save is practically negative. This is bad. Your Fort save is also practically negative.
This character will die in the first round.
Even though the weird manual-stack-rules may cause characters so become just crazy - as I mentioned earlier this character would fail ANY save it had to make.
Just imagine him facing something ~CR10 with frightful presence:D
Just in a realm of hypotheticals...
Wail of the Banshee
School necromancy [death, sonic]; Level sorcerer/wizard 9
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target one living creature/level within a 40-ft.-radius spread
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw Fortitude negates; Spell Resistance yes
When you cast this spell, you emit a terrible, soul-chilling scream that possibly kills creatures that hear it (except for yourself). The spell affects up to one creature per caster level, inflicting 10 points of damage per caster level. Creatures closest to the point of origin are affected first.
No targeting required. Let's say the caster is playing...oh...I dunno...
Wizard 20 / Loremaster 10 / Fighter 1 / Eldritch Knight 9
So we have a caster level 38 character. The character has a Metamagic, Reach (Greater) Rod. We'll conservatively say that the character has an Int of 36.
Spell DC is 10 + 9 + 13 = 32 (not good, by any stretch).
Looks like instant death to me. :-)
So is it not over?
If it is 15 feat then it helps me more then I thought..
