So what do you think of this Sling based archeologist build?


Advice

Silver Crusade

Anything i could do better? anything i'm missing?

Truth be told i liked how it turned out but i still wanna know if im missing something. And i couldn't fit precise shot in there unless you know something else i can swap it with.

Archeologist(Kobold Bard)

Fate's Favored
Reactionary

4.Weapon Training:Weapon Focus(Sling)
8.Combat Trick:Juggle Load
12.Feat:Lingering Performance

1.Point Blank Shot
3.Deadly Aim
5.Startoss Style
7.Ammo Drop
9.Startoss Comet
11.Rapid Shot
13.Startoss Shower


You're doing 1d3+X damage. In this formula the 1d3 is not the important part. If you can get a shadowshooting weapon then ammo drop and juggle load become redundant. Hello precise shot? And the later startoss feats earlier, probably ahead of rapid shot.

Like i said there wasn't enough room everything else i feel im gonna need, if you can think of anything i can get rid of for precise shot i'm all for it.

Edit: Just looked up shadowshooting, never liked needing an enchant for a build to function, but i've done it before and this would save me 2 full feats.


As much as I love Kobolds... I prefer Halfling for sling builds. Warslinger and three levels of Weapon Master Fighter to pick up Weapon Training and Slipslinger Style.

But anyways, if you want to be a Kobold, I suggest you take their Prehensile Tail alternative racial feature in place of their Natural Armor.

You can drop Deadly Aim and grab Precise Shot at 3... Startoss will add plenty of static damage, you don't need the accuracy penalty from Deadly Aim.

My Halfling Slipslinger:

15pt: +6/+5/+4 (+2 vs fear)

Stats for continuing into Alchemist:

25pt buy (w/ racials):

My only advice is don't put weapon focus on training enchant. You can't use that as a prerequisite for other feats and it may come up.

Try a feat later down the road.

Voodistmonk honestly gives some strong advice. Take notes.
