Camellia build that made her insane

[Mindflayer14]

I thought I'd share the general idea of my most recent build for Camellia, it has easily made her do a crap ton of damage. I'm in Act 4 and her average damage is 155 and crits on a 15 for 230+ (20d6+85).

Here's the breakdown:
Spirit Hunter Shaman 9/Rowdy Rogue x
grab both Enduring Spell mythic abilities and Mythic Vital Strike.
For Hexes I grab Iceplant and Battlemaster, choose whatever for the others.
Getting to Shaman 9 means you gert up to the +3 weapon enchantment and Enemy Bane and more buff spells for Enduring.
For Feats you can kinda do whatever you feel like. I take weapon focus, fencing grace, outflank, piranha strike, improved initiative, etc., standard stuff. I will say that accomplished sneak attack is really good as every 1d6 of sneak attack deals an additional 2d6 damage, so if you have 1d6 sneak attack dice then you're actually getting 3d6 damage.

you all are more than welcome to critique this build idea and improve upon it, please comment if you do and let me know how it works out!

Thats Rowdy for you. I take Rowdy 1 on Seelah for her first level for a decent damage boost and any of my tank mercs.

See I make Seelah full Pali but with 3 levels of Beast Rider Cavalier, Order of the Cockatrice. It gets her better mount choices, though you have to be careful as some are too tall and you need a reach weapon to attack while riding them, and dazzling display for free, making getting Dreadful Carnage a bit easier. Wolf and Smilidon mounts are top, either getting free trrps and op attacks or charging and pounce.

this is not a physical impairment, so no. you can't. The only real strat for her is to hide like a coward and attack her from ranged because her AC is 45 after she spells up, and she will spell up, and at lv 15 with full bab, and a 27 dex, bless, haste, flanking bonuses, studied target +4, weapon focus, THATS still only like 35 to hit, so its only a 50/50 chance you'll hit her, and that after getting lucky and rolling high enough to get passed her displacement, and maybe getting her instead of one of her mirror images, which every demon seems to learn.

A simple solution I might try first here is spamming some castings of Dispel Magic at her. There's that monocle looking item you can grab in Act 3 I think that lets you take a 20 on one dispel a day, that'd likely ruin Chivarro. This is pretty much how I beat the Pathetic Quasit as well.

I feel like the best build for camellia probably has her dual wielding kukris with a couple levels of instinctual warrior for the AC (& movement speed & initiative & rage) and a couple levels of fighter for more feats.

There is a +3 kukri in chapter 3 with shock flaming and corrosive damage, put that in her offhand and enchant her main hand weapon with the 3 elements. She needs to get elemental barrage, followed by ascendant element electricity and then fire.

At mythic level 10 and BAB 16 that would mean like 114d6 of non-reducible divine+fire+lightning damage on a full round attack if she hits everything, on top of her weapon damage, dexterity bonus, weapon spec, etc. You'll also see good damage early on the instant you get the kukri, since by then you should have at least ascendant electricity and elemental barrage - the divine damage still procs even if the damage is reduced to 0, as long as the enemy is not immune. On most demons with 5 attacks per round and mythic rank 4 (after clearing the laboratory), that is still 33d6 of non-reducible damage on a full round attack if you hit everything. And her AB is pretty good with rage, high dex, divine power and reduce person, etc.

Edit: Oh yes I also didn't factor in haste in the above calculations. Of course you can still opt for levels in rowdy (up to 8 levels if you just get 9 spirit hunger and 2 instinctual warrior) since there are spare levels, although I would think knifemaster is a better option for finesse wielding and d8 sneak even though the weapon finesse is wasted. Personally I would go 16 levels of spirit hunter and get mythic weapon finesse as a lower priority mythic feat after mythic two-weapon fighting and weapon spec, since camellia has too much utility as a buff caster. Caster level 15 gives her 8th level spells, +5 AC for her barkskin and +5 AB and damage for her divine power
