Couldn't lvl up as Shadowdancer...Help

[Etinfall]

I understand completely. When I chose to become a SD I did know it woudn't be untill 13. It sounds like you on the other hand had just missed the dodge deal. If you are at lvl 7 right now ask the dm's (probally through a pm) if you can start over doing exactly the same thing, except taking the dodge feat. They wouldn't be able to give you anything Remy has right now but they probally can delete the old and let you start a new. As long as you keep him the same as your submission bio and char threads. The fact that you just had a cdq might help their minds on the matter.

Granted, I am not a gm, or even a m. But it can't hurt to ask.

Either way, look up Cole Etinfall in the game. We can train for the shadow together. I am a VERY slow exp gainer. Started Cole in January I think and I am lvl 11 now So it might be cool, since we will be close to the same lvl most of the time.

Question to Thunder and Etinfall... do you both feel that it is better to have 11-13 lvl's rogue or whatever you were before SD anyway?  I would hate to lose what Remy has now just to get SD sooner it would be a waste.  I don't think that they would go for it either.  I honestly can never remember having Dodge as a choice the last two times but oh well.  It is probably better that Remy has time to deal with his mother's death and his choice of his path toward the shadow.  I just am not very patient....  I would love to hang out Cole.

well Lue is currently 13/6 rogue/Shadowdancer, honestly i like having the 12 levels of rogue before become a shadow dancer, helps make me feel that i earned it, seeing as how otherwise a player can be a shadodancer in a week (assuming they get a quick CDQ as you can reach the level and requirements at level 6 it's not hard to get the ex for level 7)

Also, from a character building standpoint (which, isnt the most important)  being a 10+ rogue gives you some bonus rogue feats, crippling strike, or imp evasion, although many of the other feats you can chose you get in shadowdancer levels anyway (so read up on which you get so you dont end up with redundant feats.)

Also, more rogue levels means higher sneak attack, so you'll do more damage in combat.

Didn't know all that stuff.  Wow lvl six in a week.  It's taken me 4 months to get to lvl 7. I work 5 days a week...ahh the days of school when I had my summers completely free.  Being a grown-up I guess. hehe
I think that it is good that he'll have more Rogue under his belt.  Being an Expert in Rogue so he's ready for his step into the shadows. etc...
Thanks all of you have helped ease my mind.
