Eldritch Blade - Wiz(8),F(7),EK(10),IB(5)

Description
Wizard 8 / Fighter 7 / Invisible Blade 5 / Eldritch knight 10

The Kama Kaze (Wind Scythe) focuses on hitting as often as possible per round while relying on elemental damage from equipment and bleed damage from the Invisible Blade class.

She has the potential to strike 18 times in a single round with a good hit chance for most attacks.

Unusual for melee builds of that kind, the Kamakaze also sports good saves and very high AC. You also get pretty decent social skills (bluff, diplomacy, intimidate) despite having a very low charisma.

There is no XP-penalty due to multiclassing and ECL 1 is neglegible.

Also, you get most of the key-feats at a very early stage:


 * Greater Flurry and Improved Two-Weapon Fighting by CL 13


 * Epic Prowess and Perfect Two-Weapon Fighting at CL 21


 * Combat Insight & Epic Weapon Focus by CL 25


 * Epic Weapon Specialization by 29 (ok, that's not early)

When playing, you simply point her in a direction and watch. Apart from some buffs like Haste the Kamakaze will take care of almost any mob without tedious buffing procedures. Alone.

When encountering enemies that are immune to most of the damage types that her weapons have, you can feint until it succeeds and apply some sneak attacks, dealing stacking bleed damage (6 damage per hit over 3 rounds).

Character Creation
Race: Air Genasi

Classes: Monk 13, Fighter 12, Invisible Blade 5

Alignment: Lawful

Why these classes/races?

Air Genasi


 * The Air Genasi gets DEX+2, INT+2 bonuses, where INT is useful and DEX is critial.


 * Prefered Class: Fighter. This allows for no XP penalties.


 * WIS-2, CHA-2: The WIS-2 is inconvenient but this monk doesn't rely on wisdom skills other than AC. Charisma penalty hurts dialogue options but can be countered by skills and items.

Alternatives: Humans,Half Elves, Earth Genasi, Dwarves. The drawback with all those races is the lower DEX, which means you won't get Perfect Two-Weapon Fighting at character level 21.

Monk:


 * Level 11 for Greater Flurry Feat


 * Level 13 for Diamond Soul Feat

Fighter:


 * Level 12 for Greater Weapon Specialization. Prerequisite for Epic Weapon Specialization.

Invisible Blade


 * Level 5 for Unfettered Defense (total AC+5), Bleeding Wound 3, Feint Mastery
