[QUOTE="Shadow64, post: 447205, member: 6868"] Hehe, well, I hate to double post, since I just made a replied in another thread about archers, but i'll cut and paste my response from there since it's more then relavent here too. I'd look at some of the archer feats from AEG's Mercenaries. They have some good ones to increase your sneak attack range (first from 30ft. to 60ft., then later 60ft. to 90ft.) as well as changing your sneak attack dice (from d6 to d8, then later to a d10). PLUS they have others that allow you to add your dex bonus to a single attack if the target is within 30’, one that allows an instant crit (if you hit with the attack) if you sacrifice your second attack (and if you have four attacks you give up the second and forth attacks to do the insta-crit with the first and third attack, IF you hit.) I'd probably start the char off as a rogue, switch to fighter at 4th level and go till 9th level with the fighter (use the fighter levels to load up on feats), then go back to rogue for the rest of your levels. EDIT Or if your DM will let you use the Scout class from the AEG Merc book you can use that as your first class, take Scout from 1 - 3, swap to fighter for 4 - 7th level (scout3/ftr4) then switch back to the scout class after that. If you want I can post a scout/fighter progression I worked out last night so you can check it out. [/QUOTE]
