Saves @ 80 demi x2
Fortitude 66
Reflex 70

AB @ 80
1-20 – 18 = 18
21-40 – 10 = 28
41-60 – 12 = 40
61-80 – 5 = 45
Weapon – 20 = 65
WF, EP, EWF, LWF, PWF – 9 = 74
Str Mod – 28 = 102
Craft Weapon – 2-3 = 104-105
Skills
Concentration 20 points (take on last Fighter level), Set Trap 5 points (gives a +2 synergy bonus to Disable Traps skill) but can also be taken to 63 if you fancy using traps offensively
Max - Craft Armor, Craft Weapon, Disable Trap, Discipline (take during Fighter levels and after LSA Disc), Listen, Open Lock, Parry, Pick Pocket, Search, Tumble, Use Magic Device plus t least one more
Build Pros
No experience penalty due to subrace
60% Always on concealment
1% Innate treasure scent due to 30+ CC rogue levels
Full opening/searching capability
High base dexterity gives immunity to a lot of these checks
20% boost to damage with 2h weapon use
Full weapon specialization for +20 additional damage per hit
Can disarm stuff
11d6 sneak attack
Build Cons
Saves nothing to write home about
AC Really needs Demi iterations
AB Requires use of Wraps to get to maximum damage output potential (not unusual for a non-tier 1 build)
