On a face book group I was asking for advice for a build that focuses on Intimidate but can actually fight. And have other stuff going for it
How ever I know some of the advice given is wrong.
Such as my rogue going Dazzling Display at level 3 when that feat needs
Weapon Focus and that needs a baby of 1
The idea is to take the underhanded rogue Talents and use darts
I am actually not sure if it'll work
I think antagonize was talked about and shatter Defense
I like the idea of throw darts but not sure if its worth it
Also if this works what rogue archetype should I take if any?

Darts are definitely not going to be the easiest or probably most effective weapon for your rogue build. Ranged sneak attacks are definitely harder to pull off than with a melee weapon. And you'll really suffer in early levels.
As for dazzling display at 3 you could use your 2nd level rogue talent to get weapon training in order to have weapon focus pre-req met in time for level 3.
I don't know of any rogue archetypes that would be especially effective here. There is a sniper slayer archetype that might possibly work.

The thug rogue archetype is your basic intimidating archetype for the rogue. It works most naturally with a sap or saps and use of feats like enforcer and maybe sap adept/master, but you can certainly use other weapons or tactics.
It might even be possible to use darts with a ranged feint build or the false opening feat, but this won't allow you any intimidate-related feats for a long time.

My best advice is not to be too ambitious with UnRogue builds. Try to build to the campaign, rather than a complex set of connected talents.
