If you don't hit more often than the guy who spends points in other stats, what's the point? It was the broken AC vs. BAB curve in 3.5 that made most attacks powered by a decent attack score automatic hits.Also, 'both will hit less when they increase in level' is a phallacy, as magic item bonuses, feats, stat increases, and level increases keep the hit ratio largely in line with level. What's more, with the specific case of a 15 vs. a 20, you're going to see the guy with the 15 get closer to the guy with the 20 at level 4 and comparable increments.Desiging a character concept based on a class which leads to gimped stats in that class will logically hurt you in combat. My personal approach would've been to remodel an Artful Dodger rogue and maybe pick up the ranger multiclass feat... same concept, and an execution that works in combat.</blockquote>
