[QUOTE="anonystu, post: 1174173, member: 10897"] This is a "More Crunch!" analysis, not a style or "What's fun to play?" thing. I don't have a book on me to tell you exactly what to take, but you need to look strongly at the AU combat feats: a good deal of them are very strong compared to the PHB. Off hand, I'd absolutely, positively take Exotic Weapon Heavy (+2 damage to all weapons once you make them dire), and Rapid Strike (add one extra attack 24/day) Expertise and Improved feint at 24th level are not going to work very well: sacrificing an epic-level full attack to get sneak attack is just not worth it, even with high amounts of sneak attack (Which you don't have). Since it would probably be going against the previous history of the character to have him not have expertise and feint (which are solid low-level feats), I would make sure you take the extra move action x/day feat, such that you can feint out and take a full attack as well. So, there you go: Exotic Weapon: Heavy Rapid Strike Burst of Speed (or whatever that move extra feat is) There are probably lots of other neat feats, but I'll let you look in the AU book. [/QUOTE]
