Bludgeoner / Butterfly Sting?

[Pythia, The Channeler]

I am looking into making a Sap Master Bludgeoner build. Looking through the weapons list, I noticed that only 2 bludgeoning weapons have a 19-20 crit range, both of which are Exotic/Monk weapons. Is there any way to make this type of build viable for a Butterfly Sting inclusion?

Yes - be the x4 guy.

Ask your DM if they will allow blunt arrows for crossbows as well as bows perhaps. Or, a three section staff (sansetsukon) is an Eastern weapon but a martial one with 19-20 crit. Or, just get large numbers of bludgeoning natural attacks via alchemist or summoner and hope one of them comes up a 20 ...

Actually, the cestus has a 19-20 crit range and is simple. So you could use those if you'd like. They aren't as good as kukris, but they aren't bad.

They're also a monk weapon, but that in no way keeps you from utilizing them, it just means Monks can flurry with them.

Question about the Cestus, then. I know that Keen can be put on it because it's a Piercing or Bludgeoning weapon. If I am only using it for bludgeoning, does this allow keen to work?

I believe so, yes. Though I'd check with your GM to be sure. And generally, I'd also advise grabbing Improved Critical rather than investing all the GP in making two weapons Keen...though I suppose as a Rogue 11th level might be too long to wait for that.
