I'm making an NPC opponent that is supposed to surprise and strike some fear into my players character.
He's a 20th level gestalt Mobile Fighter//Scout Rogue. I'm thinking on making him a goblin for the +4 to Dex and for the non-threatening appearance.
He will be a one-trick pony. His tactic is to make full sneak attacks. He always starts a fight dual wielding hand crossbows. He has multiple of them. He shoots, drops the crossbow, then quickdraws another. All shots get sneak attack on them (he moves before starting shooting). After the 1st round he just keeps distance and full attacks.
First thing that I need is for him to make a big number of attacks with crossbow(s). I know that I'll take TWF, ITWF, GTWF, Rapid Reload and Rapid Shot. That'll make 8 attacks in 1st round and then 5 attacks after that.
Second thing I need is to improve his attack bonus so he will surely hit with as many attacks as possible. I know that Weapon Focus and Greater Weapon Focus are a must.
Third thing I need is some additional damage from some other sources, because the PC has Uncanny Dodge. Or some way to bypass Uncanny Dodge, if there is any. Also I need some way to ignore or bypass DR higher than 10/- (or at least armor).
I don't need gear suggestions, I'm making this NPC independent of magical gear for now.
I have some houserules in my games, so ask if you need any more information or something is unclear.
