So I made some crossbow sniper build ( the whole concept of those are around obviously using the crossbow to some deadly extent). I'm not too sure at this point if I did some good builds, or if I fixated too much on some aspect (namely for some evasion and haste).
If any one wanna take a look here they are :
This is a Warlock-Monk-Fighter-Assassin build. Which I focused to have hips, evasion, perma haste(kinda?). I'm aware it has an ECL (20%) xp penalty at some point. http://nwn2db.com/build/?289401
Here's is a monk variant without warlock level ( I took some arcane archer cuz why not ). http://nwn2db.com/build/?289831
And finally, here's the build that sparked my flame for the concept (not mine)
http://nwn2db.com/build/?223519
Now, I find all those three builds really fun on paper to play. What do you think about them? Any idea or comment?
Please rate my crossbow Sniper builds!

Re: Please rate my crossbow Sniper builds!
The warlock crossbow build seems very nice. I would drop Leap and Bounds invocation and go with the Entropic Warding invocation (+4 H/MS). I would aim to buy bracers of DEX+4.
For alignment i would pick CN as i find that more fitting for a follower of Brandobaris, but yours may have a different backstory.
AC is very nice for a Crossbower, dmg probably also!
Well done!

Nice builds, you can get away with just lvl 6 warlock for haste. I got simular build http://nwn2db.com/build/?284336 and so far pve was very easy.

No idea if Arcane Archer works with crossbows, probably not. But then again, it does apply to piercing melee weapons, or so I hear.
