I am playing a human sorcerer (efreet bloodline) 4/rogue (acrobat) 2 character and want to take arcane trickster at level 8. I have one more level of rogue to qualify is my 7th cumulative level.
My character focuses on rays as an opening gambit to get a sneak attack (he often acts in a surprise round and regularly is near the top of initiative) and between mage armor, shield and invisibility can do well with a shocking grasp sneak attack for 5d6 damage and flank with a +1 dagger when he needs to.
His feats are toughness, improved initiative, point-blank shot, percise shot and weapon finesse (rogue talent). At level 7 I get another feat and was considering dervish dance, hopefully soon after replacing my +1 dagger with a magical scimitar of some type. His dexterity modifier is +3 which would be a respectable damage bonus as sneak attacks increase.
I was interested in soliciting other ideas for the level 7 feat just to have some food for thought.
Shamelessly fishing for a response.
Leadership if your GM allows it is always good. Otherwise I would say weapon focus: Ray to help hit.
Perhaps Extend Spell? Good for mage armor, shield, and eventually greater invisibility.
