Red Ryder Build - It'll Put Your Eye Out! (Rgr11/Ftr6/Mnk3)

[Sani_Medicor]

Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra!

This build takes full advantage of the elven longbow and longsword enhancements. I put all of the level ups in strength, but after enhancements the strength and dexterity are equal. The build has weapon focus, weapon specialization, and improved crit for both ranged and slashing. In other words, whether using a longbow or longsword...it'll put your eye out!!! :D

Special thanks to shablala and unbongwah for helping me develop the monk splash!

I like the longbow and longsword concept of this build, but in retrospect I think I would be better off just using handwraps. Even though I'm giving up the elven melee enhancements, I won't have the penalty for an oversized weapon in my offhand. So essentially, I'm giving up +2 damage and gaining a feat (drop whirling steel) and some enhancement points (drop the melee enhancements). If I drop the skill focus UMD, I could also pick up spring attack and shot on the run. I'm pretty tired, so I could definitely use some feedback. What do y'all think?
