![]() ![]() There are some regional feats in the book I'm interested in and I'm thinking if I get to retrain a bit I can drop my point blank shot(my SS will eschew all benefits of range fighting for prowess in melee anyways) and pick up one of the FR feats. ![]() ![]() This is in forgotten realms campaign setting, though the DM didn't have his books at the time we started our first session. Other than the 7/9 throwaways I'm actually doing pretty good. Or if I want to go this character path, should I just try to retire my rogue completely and start a new guy(if DM permits)? My only worry is my luck with the dice lately is horrid, and I could easily roll worse stats than I have. since I don't plan on taking any combat expertise and only taking a few levels of rogue perhaps my INT could swap directly with WIS? I'm not sure how important INT is other than skill points.Īssuming DM went along, would this be a valid option? Or can I still play an effective SS without the extra wis and keep current stats the same? The SS gets will saves so will make up for my penalty, and ultimately will only be missing out on AC bonus and insightful strike which seems fluff at best. Maybe I could get him to let me swap the entire WIS/CHA/STR around to drop my cha to 7, str to 9 and wis up to 14. I was thinking dropping STR, upping WIS though I can't do 7 str. Through the training with SS and meditation he could theoretically gain wisdom and give up something else. He could teach me a bit about the swordsage path and my character can meditate and reflect on his training and give a valid reason to shift his stats around. I could wander around looking for a swordmaster and ultimately find a swordsage. (One of the guys' in the groups wife is having a baby soon and we may have a couple of weeks of no group, where maybe I can squeeze this in with DM on a night or two). He is obviously a bit naive, compounded by his low wisdom score, and I'm thinking maybe a side quest could help fix this if DM goes along. I can RP that he became frustrated at his uselessness and has rethought his entire motives for adventuring. Background story was that he had been trained in agility and swordsmanship from a young age, but not yet had the chance to actually use them real world. My guy has had a horrible run of whiffed attacks since I don't have weapon finesse yet, even the DM has commented on my bad luck. I'm considering speaking with my DM about rebuilding this guy since we just started. So I guess it boils down to this Can I be an effective swordsage with the low wisdom? Or does the SS need the Wis to AC bonus to make him effective? Not to mention insightful strike, though that only seems to help on actual striking manuevers, not regular melee attacks. I took wis as the lowest since I wanted to be able have some ability to interact with NPCs and was planning on getting some resistance items to help out. My stats are as follows(DM was a stickler for the 4d6 method, no point buy): With that said I'm wondering how important the WIS is for a swordsage multiclass. After my first two sessions and seeing how my group is, it's making me want to do this even more, maybe even completely switching to another class with only enough Rogue to pick up the 2D6 SA damage, evasion, penetrating strike ACF and extra skills. I'm playing a level 1 rogue right now and I'm already planning on multiclassing him with some sort of swordsage/fighter levels.
