Anyone know of a handbook or list of feats, spells, abilities and other tactics for weaseling your way out of having to do combat.
Skills are obvious, Disguise, Hide and Move Silently for avoidance, Bluff and Diplomacy for diffusing a situation, and Escape Artist for Making your escape.
Other than that fade to violence+wand of summon monster is a good tactic against a single foe, then obviously invisibility, fly (if your outdoors and your enemies can't), any fairly flexible illusion spell. Abilities-wise, hide in plain sight, trackless step. What else have people come up with?
