Yes, re-roll, but it is for a friend.
He is taking Shiradi Champion, what twist of fate would be not totally GIMP?

Reign from Fate singer is nice, gives you like an extra 300 damage on a 20 (tier III).

Consider some defensive twists like lithe a Unearthly reactions.   You need like a 55 reflex save for EE stuff and that helps.

if you ever melee at all Sense Weakness is awesome, but it don't work for bows.

(Arty perspective here, so take it with salt)

Well, if he uses action boosts a lot, there's a couple in dreadnaught. Say, pop a damage boost right before a many-shot, or extra ones, depending on how he got AA.

Anything that'll draw agro on a semi-routine basis I try and fit lithe on for the dodge cap+reflex bonuses.

More than a little investment would get him a pin that works on orange names from fatesinger, though without a past life, that'd take 2 slots.

More theory than verified fact: A Dance of Flowers should be a pretty good option if he has Zen Archery and is willing to be a pajama wearer.

(I asked about this on the main forums in a thread about archery and E.D.s and got an amazing amount of silence.)

He has also a pure monk, so he wants to try something else with the AA, that is Dex based (a Gimp, I told him to put mor STR, but wouldn´t hear).

Thanks for the feedback, I think he will take legendary dreadnought.

Here's what I'm usually doing when I'm in Shiradi on my ranger...

Between Pin, Whistler, Nerve Venom, Prism stat damage, and Double Rainbow procs he will have a lot of helpless targets. So that means Sense Weakness is a must for 30% MOAR damage and it works on everything (everything!) so you will see 900pt slaying arrow procs instead of just bow damage. The extra damage dice based on HP remaining only work with melee, but it's  quite nice if you have to fall back to fisticuffs.
Now it is a tier 4, so that leaves you with a tier 1 and a tier 2 for the remaining slots.

The tier 1 slot is typically Brace for Impact unless you can work that extra fort into your build somehow. It comes with a couple points of saves too.

The tier 2 slot is a floater that changes based on what is being run and gives you a boat load of options.


Last I read, Dance of Flowers and other "while centered" things still aren't working with Zen Archery.

Hard to believe an AA has any fates to twist. That's some blind dedication.
