could be if built differently. using henshin cores and prowess set, but then only like you said when not 10k and no af, and while boosting.

On the other hand, it seems like you should be able to equip a bow or shuriken on a centered tree or wolf build and get +80ish MP with 10K via versatility.

i think this set is ideal for throwers

           
The Long Shadow 1 dex, 5 ranged power, +1 hit and damage

2 Pieces: +3 Melee and Ranged Power            
3 Pieces: Assassin's Sentience: Melee and Missile attacks deal an additional 4d6 +1d6 per character epic level in acid damage. This effect will not stack with other Sentience weapon procs.

but the ranged power boost set should beat it out;

Deadly Rain (Rare) 1 dex, 5 rp, +1 hit and damage, +2 critical confirm and critical damage. 1 wisdom

2 Pieces: +5 Ranged Power            
3 Pieces: +2 Damage            
4 Pieces: +3% Chance to Deflect Missiles            
5 Pieces: When you use an action boost, gain +20 Ranged power for 20 seconds

leaves me with 2 slots fre for ;

Zephyr (Rare) 1 dex, 2 dubshot+2 rp

2 Pieces: +5 Magical Resistance Rating

Guys can i ask if a 12 rogue / 6 monk / 2 ranger of fighter is better than pure or the 14 monk / 6 ranger? I think that mechanic tier 4 and 5 abilities are with great synergy with shurikens. Can you shed some light?

I thought hard about the boost option.  Assuming you have 6 charges of haste boost, it's just not enough juice to make it worth the squeeze when in FotW.  If Legendary Dreadnought was reasonable for shuris, that would make the boost option realistic.

Total thrower nub here so forgive my ignorance. I've been searching these and DDO vanilla forums for a shuriken build and this one seems to be the most up to date from what I've seen, but I hear people mentioning 14 monk 6 ranger as well. Does someone have a 14/6 build link that still functions well?

I'll be building it from a deep gnome, any decent way to incorporate the wizard level or should I just go with a +1 LR?

Which is why you don't go pure monk if you want an optimal shuri build.

14/6 halfling is the highest dps version. tier 5 dws, racial ap sink netting sneak dice and crit range, as well as the best line of sight for ips.

Carpone wrote on Dec 13^th, 2017 at 4:02pm:

It's a good indicator of burst/short-term/boss DPS which can sometimes be a very different thing from sustained/averaged performance across the course of many missions with multiple variables like mobs with different DRs, immunities, resistances, etc.

If people ran the kobold tests only using abilities that can maintain a >50% uptime throughout a mission (i.e. abilities with 60s cooldowns or less), we'd get a much better idea.  Unfortunately, most of the kobold tests are done with the goal of getting a sub-30s time, long cooldowns be damned.

14/6 halfling with all the lives and new gear should be breaking 10 seconds on red named kobold. over 50k dps bursts.

Aye, and, rogue 2 gives a whole sneak attack dice over monk! (not nearly the same dps 10% double shot adds every minute.. but, its at least some semblance of compensation.. xD)
