Other Components[edit]
Some other items you may need are:
- Quiver of Ehlona - A buckler for buffs - Various arrows from Races of the Wild
Also, creative application of spellstoring arrows is fun and effective.
Highlights[edit]
you just have a high dex and like 4 items that add to Initiative (Improved Initiative +4, Roaring (armor)+4,Eger +2/ Warning +5 (bowblade)) so when i was done he had a modifier of 24. my final attacks looked like 38/38/31/26/21 2d6+20 19-20 x3 the force on the bow ignores most dr. with the haste and the battle belt you can clear a room befor you team knows whats going on.
Munchkin-Size Me[edit]
go god or epic look for things that have to do with arrows...
Side Notes[edit]
you run out of feats really quick well good ones anyway. you may try The Exotic Weapon Master inplace of the OoBI and pick up a Greatbow (exotic wep). Also, please note that once he is proficient with a Greatbow all feats relating to a Longbow, (Weapon Focus, Weapon Specialization etc.) also apply to the Greatbow RotW.
DM Counters[edit]
untill they can ignore all cover stick bad guys behind stuff, or just and a really big number to Initiative
you can not enter order of the bow int. if you are a human !!!
