well that escalated quickly.....what now?


Advice


ok, so a while back i posted a thread asking for help on created my first pathfinder character....i ended up creating a rogue fighter(archer arc-type) Fetchling bow user who worked out pretty well...what i didn't know is that my GM likes to dish out XP like candy on holloween....

so here's my problem: we're maybe 1/3 through the set campaign course and our party is already lvl 25. (no kidding, right). we're already playing in the epic lvl range and ruleset, but the leveling doesn't seem to be slowing down any and i have quickly run out of ideas for where to take my character now.

here is a rundown of what she looks like as of now:

Character so far:

Inara
Stats:
STR:30
DEX:32
CON:24
INT:20
WIS:24
CHA:22

CLASS LEVELS:
Rogue: 4
Fighter: 8
Ninja: 10
Inquisitor: 3

(i know that having lvls in rogue and ninja is retarded, but when i originally built her, i had no idea about the ninja class or that it was even a good idea to build with it...lesson learned)

full attack:
42(X2), 42, 42, 37, 32, 27 +42 Ki point
DMG: =(36*hits)+(1D8*hits)+Holy+SA(7D6*hits)
Pressure Points/Bleeding Attack = +9 Bleed +1 STR/DEX DMG

AC=49
Initiative= +22

Feats: (there's a lot of them, so bear with me)
Point-blank shot
precise shot
Weapon focus (longbow)
snap shot
rapid shot
many shot
improved snap shot
point blank master
Skill focus (stealth)
Weapon Specialization
Shadow Walker (racial feat)
Deadly Aim
Improved initiative
combat reflexes
vital strike
improved precise shot
greater snap shot
clustered shots
greater weapon focus
combat expertise
quick draw
moonlight stalker

honestly, i cant remember at which level i took each of these, so dont ask. but i do know i met all the requirements before taking each.

these are all on top of all the class skills i get for all 4 classes and some racial stuff as well.

Inquisitor domain is Darkness

inquisitor spells:
Read Magic
Resistance
Stabilize
Detect Poison

4 Emralds to expend to succeed stealth after attack. recharges after 1 week
Endless Ammo

Keen Bane (undead) Silver Katana of Flaming Burst

armor and others:

Belt of Physical Perfection

gauntlets of the Weaponmaster

Ring of Dexterity +2 (story item supposedly....)
Ring of Protection +5
Sniper Goggles, Greater
Amulet of Natural Armor +5
Poisoners Jacket, Greater
gunman's duster
Bracers of Archery, Greater

I plan on taking Inquisitor up to at least lvl 8, but after that i don't know where i want to go with her....honestly i have nothing more to buy for her except maybe a helm of brilliance if i want to go that way, and as far as feats go, the only idea i have is the dimensional Dervish line . but to do that i need more then 1 use of a dimension door spell per day to make it effective. not to mention its not really necessary for a ranged player to really ever move. especially not with my AC...

before anyone says anything, yes, i know, this is freaking outragous and broken but hey, its how the GM wanted it to be. there are 8 players in the group who are all just as insanely geared and powerful as this and the stuff he keeps throwing at us is still keeping us on our toes like we were at lvl 1, so yeah....


Excuse me while I'm over here not even-ing.

That's pretty hilarious. I'd keep going ninja and just become the most awesome sneaky type in the history of existence. (Some of the advanced talents are pretty awesome.)

There are currently no rules for PCs beyond 20th.

I am guessing there is an assortment of houserules to handle this?

Perhaps a quick rundown of them will help with advice.


there actually are some guidelines in the paizo books about characters beyond 20th lvl. its relatively short however.

all it really says is that xp beyond 20th lvl is simply double what the previous lvl was, and that no character can have more then 4 BAB's although the + to attack for all 4 BABs will continue to go up.

it mentions some basic guidelines for continuing to increase saves and what not based on their progressions for each one, and also how to continue static class skills for some classes. for example a lvl 21+ rogue will continue to get an additional sneak attack die every other level.

it caps it all off by saying that the simplest way to progress beyond lvl 20 is to simply cross-class, which i have obviously done.

my problem is that at this point i'm finding it harder and harder to find things that will continue to improve my characters effectiveness while still keeping with the "flavor" and back-story i build her with.

Ask your DM about the various Godling classes from Super Genius Games‎.

It's third party, but the flavor fits, as at this point, your group is basically a collection of Demigods.


lol, you know i actually though about that myself and i'm not entirely sure he'll let me. 3rd party stuff is kinda hit and miss with him.

on the one hand we have a player who's playing a time-theif and he allowed that, but on the other, he won't let us buy or use 3rd party items...so, i dunno. i'll ask tho

any idea's on which godling i should look into?

Grand Lodge

This seems to be a Martial build.

I suggest the Mighty Godling.
