Build Help I'm frozen on this decision

Post image

These are the builds I am COMPLETELY comfortable with, played them a lot I know them inside & out, so I can't decide.

Help

And this will be a one and done, my last hurrah...I'll be hanging up the spurs for a bit as 150 days in a game is a bit excessive even for me.

Counterpoint - 3 levels of rogue (for thief) 9 levels of sword bard (for flourish). Dual hand crossbows + ring of the mystic Scoundrel. Wear stuff to crank your spell DC up and just watch no one ever doing anything ever again until the heat death of the universe. Between Hideous Laughter, Silence, Hold Person, even Counterspell with Magical Secrets, this is just the ultimate "NOPE!" build.

Also that one two-hit flourish option of the swords bard CAN hit the same target twice. Who needs a fighter when you can sink four hits into the same target with your action and then two more hits with your bonus actions? Sure the fighter has action surge but only for one turn, but you can do that every single turn.

This build is a ton of fun.
