We are throwing so many things. Between Rapid Shot, Greater Two Weapons Fighting and Equipment Trick, if we equip a Throwing Shield, we can attack 10 times a round. And via Throw Anything, anything in our Gate of Babylon Bag of Holding we can use anything as a thrown weapon.

Sentinel

We are worshipping The Demon Lord of Greed and Secrets, which makes it that if we are wearing a Gold Full Plate it counts as Adamantine, and by throwing money at mongrels, we can summon red dragons to murder our enemies. Plus we get a few bonuses if we use a Sickle so that’s cool I suppose.

Equipment

You have tons of gold at first so buy yourself the best armor you can, a throwing shield, a combat scabbard and all the throwing weapons.

Final Thoughts on the Build

Yep, we did Gilgamesh pretty darned accurately actually. Can throw tons of shit at people, have tons of magic items, wears a golden plate armor, and is a King via Leadership. Plus we get Ea’s Chains(Just get a few Spiked Chains and have a spellcaster cast a permanent Animate Objects on them) and we can use a Sickle to mimic Enuma Elish for tons of damage surprisingly. Have fun with this build.
