Rogue/Hexblade?

Post by Waldo52 » Sun Jul 16, 2023 5:40 am

I'm thinking of a character concept that's basically a rogue, but requires a familiar for character reasons. I'm thinking 24/25 rogue and the rest hexblade.

I realize that this probably won't be as good as the rogue fighter variant, the rogue ranger variant or the rogue invisible blade variant. But is this possible to make without being terrible?

As long as you have at least 6 level of Hexblade, I think you could make it work pretty well. I recommend human for the extra feat + skill points. You can never have enough feats as a rogue. But don't let that stop you; this can work with any non-good race.

Also make sure you take all the Hexblade levels before epics, so that your BAB is as high as possible. Though you should probably save the 6th level for 29 or 30 in order to get the discipline. The rest I'll leave to the real experts 😊

Anyone else ever tried such a stupid build? Any more feedback on the 5 versus 6 hexblade levels aspect?
