A sapper is not a dextrous sneak, but a solid warrior specializing in destruction—of blindsided opponents, fortifications, and objects in general.
Class Information
This is a rogue archetype.
Hit Dice: d8.
Starting Wealth: 5d6 × 10 gp (average 175 gp.) In addition, each character begins play with an outfit worth 10 gp or less.
Class Skills
Add Knowledge (Engineering) (Int) to the sappers' list of class skills.
Skill Ranks at Each Level: 6 + Int modifier.
Class Features
This archetype has all rogue class features, except as noted. If the sapper gains a feat he already has, he gets to select a replacement he fulfills the prerequisites for. The same applies to rogue talents.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency
Sappers are proficient with all simple weapons, all firearms (where available), plus the earth breaker, heavy pick, light hammer, light pick, and pickaxe. They are proficient with light armor, medium armor, and with shields (including tower shields). This replaces two skill points per level.
Sapping
At 2nd level, a sapper can inflict great harm on objects. He gains the rogue talent Sapping an can use Knowledge (Engineering) in place of Disable Device and Perception when opening locks or finding and disabling traps or secret doors. Using Knowledge (Engineering) to disable a trap or lock destroys it. Knowledge (Engineering) gains the benefit from Trapfinding and trap- or lock-related rogue talents when used like this.
Sapping replaces evasion. A sapper cannot select improved evasion as an advanced rogue talent unless he first gains evasion from some other source.
Pavise
At 4th level the sapper gains Pavise as a bonus feat. When using a pavise, the sapper gains the benefits of the evasion rogue class feature. This does not count as a prerequisite for abilities that require evasion. Pavise replaces uncanny dodge.
Improved Pavise
At 8th level the sapper gains Improved Pavise as a bonus feat. This replaces improved uncanny dodge.
Greater Pavise (Ex)
When using a pavise, the sapper gains the benefits of the rogue class feature improved evasion.
