You skipped over the best part of what makes the Rowdy so good. Your vital strike does an extra 2d6 damage per die of sneak attack you have. So a single vital strike hit with a greatsword at level 1 does 4d6 (weapon damage for vital strike) plus 1d6 (sneak attack) plus 2d6 (vital strike bonus damage from having 1 sneak attack die.) At level 20, vital strike is doing an extra 20d6 damage.
Yeah so you'll find that in every video there's 1 or 2 things I missed. It became an uncanny occurrence. Even when I actively tried to not let it happen it happened. It;s a big RIP but I've come to peace with it lol. Please, keep commenting things you notice thoguh! These are all good tips!
I’ve been mulling over mixing 2-3 rogue levels, 2 Paladin levels, maybe a scaled fist monk level, and enough inquisitor to get the equivalent ability to evasion for a character with great saves and no consequences from anything on a success.
While rogues seem to have a stigma in Table top they do have some of the highest dps single target available with sneak attack. Though its slightly harder to work than the games make it out. Also nok nok was too good of a companion in kingmaker no other rogue is really gunna compare shame too.

Again a good guide! Thanks. Keep it up!
Another point in Knife Master's favor is that best boy Nok Nok is one

Yeah its harder in the table top but in these games sneak attack and flanking are kind of dumbed down
