Shadowy Dragon

This is my first build so I may have made a few errors.

(Halfling)

Starting Stats
STR=6
DEX=16
CON=8
WIS=18
INT=15
CHA=8

This is a dragon I made up. I had already made a version of this with fighter classes instead of rogue ones when I saw Dragon Kin on the epic character builds. I realised straight away that it was better than my original one so I made my rogue build. When it sneaks attacks (without flurry of blows on)it gets two attacks and can dal out over 190 damadge in a round (without buffs).

1. Rogue, lightning reflexes
2. Evasion
3. Sneak attack 2d6, uncanny dodge, dodge
4. Wisdom +1
5. Sneak attack 3d6
6. Uncanny dodge II, expertise
7. Sneak attack 4d6
8. Wisdom +1
9. Mobility
10. Monk, cleave, stunning fist, furry of blows, Monk AC bonus
11. Druid, nature sense, animal companion
12. Wisdom +1, spring attack, woodland strike
13. Trackless step
14. Resist natures lure
15. Wild shape, whirlwind attack
16. Wisdom +1, wild shape x2
17. Wild shape x3
18. Rogue, knockdown, crippling strike
19. Uncanny dodge III, sneak attack 6d6
20. Wisdom +1
21. Sneak attack 7d6, improved evasion, improved critical (unarmed strike)
22. Uncanny dodge IV
23. Sneak attack 8d6
24. Wisdom +1, improved sneak attack I, great wisdom
25. Uncanny dodge V, sneak attack 9d6
26. (none)
27. Sneak attack 10d6, improved sneak attack II, great wisdom II
28. Wisdom +1, uncanny dodge VI
29. Druid
30. Great wisdom III, venom immunity
31. Wild shape x4
32. Wisdom +1
33. Rogue, Sneak attack 11d6, improved sneak attack III
34. Druid
35. (none)
36. Wisdom +1, wild shape x5, dragon shape
37. Rogue
38. Sneak attack 12d6
39. Improved sneak attack IV, improved sneak attack V

Skills
It doesn’t really matter what skills you use, as long as move silently and hide are maxed out. I would also suggest tumble, perhaps.

take monk at lvl 21
and make your pre epic guy druid 12/rogue 8 or thw opposite
also.. you might want to go 12 druid 8 assasin and forget about rogue... yourll get more feats that way
but less skill point, but i think that its ok for this build.. with your str.. you wont be able to do much

aslo, put the last point into str.. youl need it.. your guy will DIE from the heavy loads he might have to bear while unshifted

oh, and just noticed.. if your going for a dragon, then you really should have IKD, because of the dragoin size, its much miore effective that way. and your sneak damage will be dealt while they are knocked down..

also.. why do you have mobility? spring attack? and whirlwind??? makes no sense to me now, could you please explain.

He'd need at least 13 druid levels to get assassin, since he'd have to cross-class Hide and Move Silently up to 8 ranks. That would drop his BAB by 1.

Edit: You should probably have griphook add in the fact that it's a halfling somewhere at the beginning of the build.

I just got mobility and spring attac to get whirlwind, with the build in dragon mode it has a high BAB and you get lots from the whirlwind. I totally agree on the IKD though... Could ye post the stats (ac/ab/hp etc)for dragonshape and halfling shape? Naked I mean. Helps to compare with the other builds

OK, this is in Dragon mode, without any buffs or items:

Attack 1: 2-12 +19(critical 19-20x2)
Attack 2: 2-12 +19(critical 19-20x2)
Attack 3: 2-16 +19(critical 19-20x2)
Fortitude: 33
Reflex: 38
Will: 32
Base Attack Bonus: 24
Spell Resistance: 20
AC: 61
HP 742/642 (you get 100 temporary hit points when shifting to dragon)
