What's your actual class split by level? And what was the wiz splash for, just the metamagic?

I did a 12/6/2 split with monk added getting my ranger PLs.

Reason being that you don't get much after 12 as a ranger (2 more fav enemy and Hiding in Plain Sight) unless you are pure ranger for cap stone.

With those 6 levels as monk you get a stance, AC, slow fall, and some unarmed fighting skills, 10,000 stars (that's a big one), extra feats + more stuff.

Challenges include skill pints. Use a planner so you have an idea how much INT you will need. Too little and you can't afford the cross-class skills of DD and UMD. Too much and you nerf yourself elsewhere. I started with 12 iirc.

Also a challenge is making sure you qualify for your feats when you want them. Sux to plan on taking a feat at a certain level only to find your BAB is too low.

Also, also a challenge is gear. I HATE swapping gear to do traps. Squeezing in spot, search, DD, OL is rough. If you don't mind swapping out gear at each trap and know where the traps are then this is no problem.

Good luck with your build.
