    Default Feat selection?

    Just wondering what the ideal feat selection is for a rogue. I've gone half elf with fighter dilletante, from what I can see, more crits is better than fewer harder crits for a rogue, so I'll probably end up wielding scimitars, but for the first few levels I'm wielding an antique greataxe (you should see the look on people's faces) until my to-hit reaches acceptable levels.

    Because of this, I'm struggling with feat choices, here's what I have so far:

    Toughness
    TWF

    And here's what I guess I'll have by 20

    Toughness
    TWF
    ITWF
    GTWF
    IC:Slash
    PA (unless it causes large issues with to-hit)

    This leaves me with a feat to play with, so I was wondering what I should take. Oversized two weapon fighting? At the moment the feat I like the look of is sap, as it doesn't seem to have a save, or failing that, maybe just another toughness, more hp is good hp

    Any ideas?

    Common choices:
    - 2nd Toughness <----- personally, I don't like it
    - OTWF, since you will be wielding two large weapons;
    - Skill Focus: UMD, if it brings you close to 39 (i.e. no fail on Heal and Reconstruct scrolls);
    - Past Life: Rogue feat, if/when available.
    On Thelanis: Hallelujah (EK wraith) - Jerryrigged Juggernaut (Fiend Warlock) - Sepulchral (Druid) - Chopchopchop (Monk) - Alleyshadow (retired gimped monkcher). Formerly on Keeper : Misericordia (Thug) - Mumbo Jumbo (Battle Caster) - Infernal Can (WF Kinda Cleric) - Halleluyah (Melee Spellsinger).

    OTWF, Khopesh, SF: UMD, PL: Rogue, Quickdraw are all more or less viable choices.

    For more info, see Draccus' guide which is linked in my sig.

    1. Toughness
    2. TWF
    3. ITWF
    4. GTWF
    5. Imp Crit: Slash
    6/7. Two of the following which appeal to you.
    1. OTWF
    2. PA
    3. Toughness
    4. SF:UMD(only applies if needs to get 39)
    5. Khopesh
    6. Rog PL:SoS(TR must have been a rogue)
    Its all up to you what you want to do. You are on the right path dont bother with 2 weapons just yet that 2hander will do you just fine until lvl 10-12, but if you want some more AC go S&B for a bit.

    If you're human (+1 free feat), geting CE and Improved feint is perhaps another option if you solo a lot.
