Hey it's been a while since i came to ask for build ideas, Ive been here before and the latest build suggested (a swash/phantom blade) did survive many sessions in the hardcore Gestalt temple of elemental evil (ad&d) port i'm playing, but the other sesion he met his fate at the hands of a Fey which seemed fitting due to his backstory.

I have the backstory and the stats or the new pc but don't know what to build,i want him to go unarmed, the character has a prosthesis arm (already talked to the Dm and due to a npc/hook in the story i'll be able to just pay the materials for an arm) it can be a clockwork prosthesis or a graft from 3.5 book of vile darkness.

The character is a kayden caylean follower (i think thats how u spell it, sorry if not), he is a pugilist first and foremost, Chaotic Good, he is based in Tom Hardy and old classic boxers, he likes booze, cigars, and card games..... And femboys from iblydos

The stats rolled are 16-16-16-15-13-6.

Starting gold is 26k.

Lvl8 ,all paizo(including vampire hunter and omdura) and 3.5 paizo content.

Resta of the party is a white haired witch/iron ring strike magus, a fighter/ sword binder wizard and a karma Umonk/Urogue specialized in disable device.

I really don't know what to build, thought brawler/vampire hunter, or free style Master fighter/ any scaling unarmed damage .archetype/class. Please refrain from the monk cleric- monk druid suggestions. Sorry for the Bad English (English is not My mother tongue) and long post. Thanks

EDIT: homebrew/3pp is allowed under dm approval

We are playing a hardcore campaign based in ad&d adventures by our dm, My omdura/okayo Corsair swashbuckler died against a Fey last night, i wanna roll a character i Made for 5e and never got to play, the character was a brawler/pugilist who crafted his arm prosthesis after he Lost it a bar fight when young, i wanted to play a brawler but don't know what to pair it with(Open to other unarmed classes). Constructed pugilist and jitskan artificer have the right flavour but did not liked them . I know like martial flexibility (or something that gives me some tricks like spell casting or skills) and unarmed. Havent decided the race, all of them are allowed (here a villager is not gonna respond the same to a halfling than to a tiefling/dhampir or a gargoyle tho) also all paizo material is allowed, Even some 3.5 with the dm approval

Rolled stats are 16-16-16-15-13-6

26k of gold

My prosthesis is only the material cost according to the dm

Party composition is a dex fighter/ sword binder, a rogué/unchained monk and a white haired witch/iron ring strike magus

Thanks as usual, i'll await response

EDIT: i like the vampire hunter one , dunno if any of You played it

I'm the guy playing the meat grinder Gestalt temple of elemental evil , My last character that i Made with the advice of Reddit lasted 6 sessions (thats a Lot) and entered to the temple , but then we got tpkd by a bugbear, like , we got our asses handed to us.

So i wanted to port a character i Made in a campaign which was a monk/stalker vigilante. he was a dhampir taking care of the city, really dexterous , efective in unarmed and with thrown weapons.

The thing is i don't know what to build i'm Gestalt, since i don't know if the whole double identity and social talents Will be Even in the adventure, i thought brawler/teisatsu or far strike umonk with arcane dealer.

The stats rolled are : 16-16-15-16-13-6. Start at level 7 and with Lvl 3 gold, all paizo including 3.5 is allowed, u get one drawback and two traits, and then u can take extra traits in Exchange for an extra drawback.

I thought i'm reflavoring him as a vampire/undead hunter, since the campaign where he is from had a vampire bbeg. I'm Open to other ideas as long as the character is a dhampir and can both use unarmed and thrown

We are playing a really hardcore gestalt campaign with heavy dungeoneering and PC's dying frequently, My DM says he wanna playtest some things So he Will allow prestige classes, i wanna try it, but i don't know Much about prestige classes since the only one Ive played is the mortal usher , and also i don't know which prestige class to pick either, we are currently at lvl 7 with lvl4 gold , had good rolls for stats So i'm Open for everything, tho i have a soft spot for unarmed characters

Edit: this would be a new character, nothing is set in stone yet, the stats are 17-16-15-16-13-6

I wanna decide between those two combinations, looking for synergies and utility mostly, rolled really good stats, if u have other ideas or combinations Will be apreciated, the flavor is a Fey touched scoundrel/swashi who loves Nature and pranks

Lvl 7, lvl 4 gold 18-16-15-13-12-9. Rest of the party is a unarmed magus/witch with Focus on maneuvers, and a fighter/wizard who actually is the biggest damage dealer.

The campaign is a meat grinder, it's a Pathfinder conversión of temple of elemental evil of AD&D, we are having a blast but it's clear You can't get attached XD

Hello ive been asking for Gestalt builds this last month since we are playing a hardcore campaign and our characters keep dying (it's actually really fun) so now i wanted to roll a okayo Corsair swashi, but i don't know what to pair it with, we already have a paladin/rogue, white hair witch/iron ring strike magus and a arcanist/fighter, we are lvl 6 we had a tpk last session.

Lvl 3 gold, rolled stats are 17-14-13-10-16-14

Gestalt rules, all paizo material is allowed

Edit: i was thinking maybe 2 lvls of paladin 1 of sleuth investigator and maybe the rest fighter or something, never played a swashbuckler before

Lvl 6, pretty hardcore campaign , 3k gold Gestalt rules, all paizo, thought several classes to pair but cant make My mind, stats i rolled are : 17-14-13-11-10-12.

I really loved the flavor of the synthetist and since this campaign is a meat grinder for pcs i thought i would test the class.

Lastly there are so many flavor posibilities for this archetype, Venom, Saint Seiya, súper sentai, magical armors, mechas, i wanted to hear your ideas since everything i think off sounds cliché

Rolled stats : 17-17-14-13-10-9 (i was thinking human for the +2 and the extra bonus feat)

I'm playing a really hardcore Gestalt campaign( 3 characters have died in the last 4 sessions,mainly due to Bad rolls) so i was making a backup character, i was thinking a turfer or strong sided brawler, the thing is i'm not savy enough about all the classes and Gestalt tables , so i come to Reddit to ask suggestions or ask good synergies. The party has a white haired witch/magus and a fighter/arcanist , level 6, gold of lvl 3 all paizo material is accepted

Recently got into a Gestalt campaign and i'm fascinated, the Game is hard af, we party wiped last week for example. But i wanted to hear your favorite builds and weird archetypes combinations and synergies

(Sorry for the Bad English , English is not My first language)

I asked My friends and all of them said that the only way is to dip 1 lvl of inspired blade for using a rapier, i don't like rapiers. So i was Gonna ask, is there any other viable weapon?

Pd: lvl 6 , 16k gold , 20 point buy, i'm thinking of making a dex build

We are near the end of strange aeons book1 and we got tpk'd, have no idea what to do, i like the idea of the natural philosopher/empiricist investigator. I'm Open to ideas, some members have not decided class, however one said zen archer and other said Slayer, 2 and myself are pending.

I like skillmonkeys and martials generally, i'm not a Big fan of full casters, but like i said, i'm Open to ideas, Ive been only playing 2 years, pretty new to the stuff.

Point buy 20, 2 traits , curently in lvl 6 with the correspondant gold. Thanks in advance

Wanna mix it with some cha based class,but i'm not quite sure which one, the party has a ninja/paladín with panache (cant remember the archetype) and a cleric/shaman, i really like the Warrior poet samurai but don't know what to mix it with. So i come to you My fellow redditors, any ideas? Lvl 3, gold of lvl 1

Rolled stats are 17-15-14-13-11-10

Gold of lvl 1 , lvl 3 character

I might take human but i'm willing to change it, originally i was Gonna play a fighter rogué, but thanks to Reddit i changed My mind, the character concept is a young adventurer chaotic but with a heart of gold, follower of k.kaylean same amount of brains and muscles. This is My first Gestalt campaign and My first character died already, any ideas for builds? I would like to hear all your wacky combinations and ideas

Rolled stats are 17-15-14-13-11-10 , i wanna make him a human, kinnda like Jhon the human adventurer, the adventure is a PF1e port of temple of elemental evil from ad&d.

Lvl 3 pc, starting gold of lvl 1, i would like to hear your suggestions, thanks

EDIT :obviously i Made a mistake, what class is good to pair with fighter for Gestalt, would like to have skills if possible and not use investigator since i just used it prior to this PC

Love a rey wanderer campaign that i used for little time, now i play PF1e and wanted to SEE if there is something similar

A character i had was a winstep Master u monk, but something happened story wise and i'm able to re-spec the character as long as it stays unarmed, i wanna hear builds , rolled great stats and have lvl 18 gold

The story is at lvl 15 My PC left to find his Master, now we are lvl 18 and he is ready to come back for the final stretch changed, he was kinnda Dumb and hot headed, im planning to bring him calmer and wiser

Hey soon our Pathfinder camping Will end, and the universe ingame Will reset, we Will have some homebrew (some players Will use some 3.5 content and we Will be able to keep an ability from our pcs , i'm taking the flurry of blows since i have a monk) , so i was thinking in playing a jitskan artificer Magus since i really like the flavor , i wanted to ask if u guys would give me any good class to mix with the unarmed magus idea, the only rule is no humans allowed, 2 traits , 1 drawback , paizo content mostly but dm said he can evaluate homebrew. Rolled really good stats So i can afford to be a little MAD

Edit: jitskan artificer , golemfist magus, artificer magus
