Ranged Assassin

This is meant to be a ranged stealth/alpha-strike build. The last level is up to the individual player, opting for either Ranger 9 for a 9th level spell or Rogue 4 for an additional Feat.

Playstyle & Strategy

1. Pre-combat: Stealth + position yourself for an Assassinate auto-crit.

2. First Turn (Alpha Strike):

○ Dread Ambusher Attack → Extra Attack → Bonus Action Off-hand Crossbow Attack (if equipped).

○ If enemy is surprised, all attacks are crits.

○ Use Hunter’s Mark on priority targets.

Mid-Fight: Reposition with Misty Step or stealth for another Sneak Attack.

Consider running with both a longbow and dual hand crossbows:

  • Start combat with a longbow (Dead Shot) for the highest burst damage.
  • After the first turn, switch to dual hand crossbows to keep up multiple attacks per turn.

If enemies are too far away, stick with longbows for range.
