feats question on ranger/rogue (18/2)

[bree22]

i am currently building a drow ranger/rogue (2/2 currently). I am taking the path towards tempest. using this format expect for the energy of the wild enchancements http://forums.ddo.com/showpost.php?p...6&postcount=49. Starting stats are 16/16/14/10/10/10. I like balance and I still plan on ranging her a little (i like many shots and will use a +1 dex tome on her) but perfer melee as my main focus. My plan is to pass on weapon finesse to get to tempest I as fast as possible. question is i get rapiers and short swords with drow for enchancements but was wondering if i should take a feat into exotic weapons khopeshs at level 9 or 12 being that my feats were all moved up by 1 for passing on weapons finesse or take a another level of toughness (i think you can take toughness 2x's)?

I seem to get them as rewards on all my toons but none of my toons are trained in them. I hear good things about them as well as scimitars and rapiers (mostly due to crit hits 15%). My current main toon (ranger 13) got screwed up because i didn't take the tempest route (to expensive to switch now and take to long to add feats later) and I and i got catch between dex and str on my levels. I plan adding to str on each level-up option (i think it 4 times to add to stats). I took rogue for the early part of the game so i can solo more to build up faster (instead of waiting for groups all the time).

Why do you have 2 lvls of rogue, on a class that already gets evasion?

because i screwed up my setup and forgot to put in disable traps (it was late at night and the wife was in my ear ;-). I didn't feel like restarting at that point. 2nd reason is 19th ranger is no big deal and I am simple, i didn't want to fuss with a third class. The rogue is really just to detect and disarm traps and that is it.
