Rogue Daggermaster Crit Idea's

Not far from level and waiting for 18 to 20 crits to kick in.
Have built up Crit feats and trying to maximize the number of attack rolls I can do to get as many crits as possible.

Unfortunately the dagger crits only apply to rogue powers now and not basic attacks or charges, but in return you can get SD damage on out of turn attacks which is not too bad.

What ways are their to maximise the number of Rogue attacks you can get ?

Is "High Crit" feat worthwhile at Epics as that would be 3D4, and using Gauntlets of Destruction thats 9 extra damage on a crit.

Low slash or minor action triggered attacks for extra rogue attacks. Duelist's prowess stance lvl 1 daily gives you bonus rogue reaction attacks. Lashing blade 7 enc gives you an attack nova and a good AC buff.

The lack of basic attack substituting rogue powers is a good balance to insure the fighter is more punishing with opportunity attacks.

I have had another look at that Lashing Blade from the Dragon mag and its a bit tricky to read isnt it.

So the standard action to activate actually does nothing besides put you effectively in a stance for a round.

And since its an Opp Action you can make as many of these attacks as enemy adjacent to where you are, or move up to you.

So effectively its an out of turn blast 1, + any enemy who move up to you.
So its a bit of a weird power isnt it.

At least its not a melee basic so it counts for Daggermaster crit.
