SWF Rogue viability

Looking for some thoughts or suggestions on this one. The idea is using a 13/6/1 Rogue/Monk/FVS split to take advantage of the combination of attack speed, sneak attack and doublestrike. Between the SWF line plus wind stance, Opportunist, rogue and ninja spy sneak attack, ED benefits etc the number of attacks should be high. Presuming you can keep sneak attack, damage output is going to be good.

Unless there is a good reason to do otherwise, I'd go human, strength based, shortsword user. I gave consideration to Drow just for a bit of extra damage from shortswords through Righteous Weapons and racial bonus.

The biggest concern would obviously be durability. Draw aggro and I'd be shredded, so I'd be a bit party dependent.

Thoughts on the concept?

im doing swf swashbuckler rogue currently. You give up a lot by not going stalwart stance with buckler for infi dodge, or dex based with improved defensive roll. PRR would be around 60 on your build before any Epic iconic PLs.

If you can get a hold of drow dun'ro'bar rapier you'll end up with a 13-20 crit range on it. I assumed SSword because you have celestia?

That and ninja spy on what I'd envisioned.

Come to think of it I've got a Drow rapier on a shelved character. Maybe I'll dust him off and do something.
