Straight up max damage with all you sneak attacks without rolling....? If you build for ambushing rogue this is what you wantAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05445467785149236777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534782797790619934.post-73592588929736530922017-07-04T04:03:02.732-07:002017-07-04T04:03:02.732-07:00You can do not necessarily need to multiclass for ...You can do not necessarily need to multiclass for this to work. Just stick with sohei monk. spend the feats for a fully leveled animal companion. Template the AC into bodyguard archetype. Take the look out feat. Done. Now you both can move and the sohei can make full attack after the move The AC should probably Vital Strike.<br /><br />Maybe there is better is better options doing this as a hunter or sacred huntmaster dipping sohei, but I just wanted to show it could be done single classing thanks to look out teamwork feat.<br /><br />Congrats you can always make a full action whenever there is a surprise round...<br /><br />By RAW (I think) you can always FORCE a surprise round. <br /><br />How ? (Careful the cheese is strong in this one, but it's hilarious). Take a feat or a class dip for a familiar. Tape it/bind it to your animal companion. Put blindfolds on the familiar. Voila a surprise check is always forced, because one of the combatants (the familiar) will be unaware when combat starts... Profit with a full action for you and your animal companion... Talk about action economy...<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05445467785149236777noreply@blogger.com
