So I've recently started playing the Reign of Winter AP. It is just me playing 3 characters, inquisitor witch and rogue. (minor spoiler) I just hit the point where I was given +2 to the ability of my choice.
So that is making me look into my stat allocation sooner rather than later. I am currently lvl 3 with an 18 dex, so no ability bumps yet. If I pushed everything into dex, I'd end up with 30 dex, a +10 modifier. hat is assuming, +2 from quest, +4 from lvls, and +6 from belt, no books.
Clearly I am looking at going past the max dex bonus on most armors. I've asked my DM about the chance of obtaining celestial armor but no choice has been made yet, but it is still only +8.
So I guess my question is for anyone who has played a high dex character at higher levels, what would you suggest. Is the +hit and ref save worth enough even if I can only get mith chain or celestial? Should I look at bracers of armor or haramaki? Or should I consider putting some points elsewhere? (knifemaster/scout rogue, focusing on TWF and feint. S 11 D18 C 16 I 13 W 10 C 12 was rolled)
For my build, keep in mind with only 3 PCs, i expect to rarely have flanking unless its only 1-2 enemies. Also the inquisitor is going for intimidate, which I plan to capitalize on. This is why it is a heavy bluff/feint/shatter build.
1:TWF
H:Combat Expertise
2R:Finesse Rogue
3:TW Feint
4R:Offensive Defense
5:Skill focus bluff or imp. init
6R:Slow reactions
6R(human favored class):Weapon Training Daggers
7:Skill focus bluff or imp. init
8R:Combat Trick: Imp. TWF
9:Imp. TW Feint
10R:Crippling Strike
11:Dazzling display
12R:Feat:Shatter Defenses
12R:Entanglement of blades
That is as far as I have planned out. Dazzling display is a small waste but shatter should make up for the "wasted" feat.
Does this sound like an effective build for a 3 PC group? It give me many options to get sneak dice with d8s. And should i throw everything into dex and save for bracers? or would the extra +2 from RoW be better spent elsewhere.
Thanks!
