Another proposed Ninja Spy / Tempest Build

[Eurytos]

I've been playing DDO since 2006 and I've never leveled a rogue past 6. I've always wanted to, just never got around to it. This isn't much of a rogue (2 splash), but it has rogue skills. This build will primarily use a shortsword in wind stance for attack speed using ki strikes. On enemies like undead, constructs and elementals, this build has the option of handwraps (2d6 base damage) and touch of death.

Race: Drow
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Path: Inevitable Dominion (Dark)
Drow provides shortsword attack and damage enhancements for use with Ninja spy. Lawful Neutral to allow use of litany of the dead in the future and handwraps do not require a UMD20 check for pure good. Greensteel shortswords do not have a UMD requirement. Drow also provides the possibility of incorporating the Drow Scorpion Wraith PrE to this build.

Level Split: Monk12/Ranger6/Rogue2
Monk 12 for teir 3 stances, abundant step, ninja spy II, etc. Ranger for Tempest, which stacks with the 7.5% insight from wind stance3. Ranger also provides Improved Two Weapon Fighting for free. Rogue 2 for rogue skills, haste boost, sneak attack.

STR: 16
