Archer Feats


Advice


Stats:
Str 10 Dex 18 Cons 14 Int 16 Wis 10 Cha 8 BAB +6

Stix Fighter(Subtype Archer mainly uses Heavy crossbow)

Current Feats:
Precise shot, Point blank shot , Rapid shot , Bullseye shot and Opening Volley.

About to get my next feat but kinda lost on what to get next any suggestions?


I'd recommend Manyshot but you said you mainly use a heavy crossbow; considering you don't even have rapid reload I'd consider using a longbow instead.


What class are you? How do you typically fight in combat? What sort of concept do you have in mind to work towards? What you've presented here doesn't look like a typical ranged build (I don't see any reason why you would use a Crossbow over a Longbow, and the Opening Volley feat in particular indicates to me that you're making a lot of melee attacks, which is highly unusual for a ranged specialist), so I'm hesitant to make suggestions when I don't know what you're doing.

Literally, or figuratively? This is Lamashtu we're talking about

Both sadly


6 barreled revolving Crossbow each chamber is enchanted with a enchantment and it is auto load and endless ammo when using standard arrows and no enchantment they have a bleed


Rapid Reload, of course.

Farshot maybe?

Deadly Aim

Reckless Aim

get Crossbow Mastery when you can

Funny thought, be a Grenadier Alchemist and put Alchemal Bombs and Flasks of Lamp oil on your bolts for a little extra oomph.

Weapon specialization, then Point Blank master, followed by False Opening, maybe?

The advantage of Crossbow is that you can operate it laying down, enjoying a +4 to AC vs Ranged Attacks. Maybe get Prone Shooter? Maybe some feat or ability that lets you move while Prone or jump up to standing? I remember there are Rogue Talents, but I can't remember the Feat names.

One of the barrels actually shoot any of the following Liquid Ice, Alchemist Fire, Bottled Lightning and my personal Fav Ghast Retch attached to a standard arrow

Gm is actually letting me use Opening volley with the other Party members so the +4 goes to any melee used before the end of my next turn

Im mainly going for an archer but the class i picked out the bowl was fighter. Im new to PF and usually always play magic users so fighter/ Archer builds are all greek to me.


go 5 levels of bolt ace then rest vanilla fighter if using a crossbow, drop bullseye shot and opening volley for rapid reload and crossbow master
