Overwhelming Archer

[T_ward7a]

This is all just a hypothetical build that I have been thinking about. Meant to be a Kensei II, Ninja Spy I, AA w/10k stars. Really wanted to try and combine Overwhelming Critical with Combat Archery. It was tough to come up with a way for everything to fit in.

I'm sure there are plenty of things that I forgot. The stats had to be really spread out in order to get the epic feats. The feat order isn't optimal, but I believe everything is there that I need for pre-reqs and ranged DPS. No gear is posted so the HP, saves, stats and all that is off. Just did a quick run through of the enhancements to mainly make sure I could get all the prestiges that I wanted, and the skill points were also just done quickly.

The real drawback of this is not having the ability to melee much. No TWF or THF feats will really limit the melee capabilities. I have lower wisdom than I would like on a 10k stars build, but I didn't see much else to do about that if I wanted to get both epic feats. On my current Monkcher I have stunning fist which works really well with the high wisdom and I know I would miss that on this build, but it is going to be a permanent archer.

Stats at End of Level 20:
HP:342 SP:217 AC:21 FORT:16 REFL:14 WILL:17 BAB:+18/+18/+23/+28
STR:22(+6) DEX:21(+5) CON:17(+3) INT:15(+2) WIS:18(+4) CHA:11(0)
Balance:7, Bluff:2, Concentration:19, Diplomacy:2, 
Disable Device:20, Haggle:0, Heal:5, Hide:7, Intimidate:2, 
Jump:8, Listen:6, Move Silently:7, Open Lock:9, Perform: n/a, 
Repair:2, Search:14, Spot:6, Swim:6, Tumble: n/a, UMD:23

The stat raises at 20 and 24 also need to go into strength with Combat Archery being taken at level 21 and Overwhelming Critical being taken at 24.

Important Stats
STR: 16 base +4 levels +3 tome +7 item +2 insightful +2 Yugo = 34 easily sustainable
DEX: 16 base +2 levels +3 tome +8 item +3 insightful +1 exceptional = 33
CON: 14 base +3 tome +7 item +2 insightful +2 Yugo +2 earth stance = 30
WIS: 14 base +3 tome +8 item +3 insightful +2 insightful + 2 Yugo +2 monk +1 human adaptability + 1 exceptional = 36

Str and Con will be higher since I will run in Fury of the Wild the majority of the time and use Primal Scream, but that is only 3 mins long. I didn't count ship buffs but that will add some more and being raged while in fury will grant me +2 wisdom from Acute Instincts. Earth stance will be the main stance so + 2 con is accounted for.

I'll go through and add gear setup at another time soon.

Just looking for some suggestions on how to improve on the idea, or point out anything I missed. Or reasons why this just simply won't work. Thanks.
