^I would have started that way to be honest.
I just found out that I'm bad at calculating BAB; my quick draft above only reach +14 and I kinda want +16. I do want to keep Shadow 10 though... Hmm.. Rapscallion regional feat can make up for the sneak attack part, Holomancer 4, Full BAB 3, Shadow 10, Lens Mage 3... Any ideas, anyone?
Edit: I'm thinking about making those Full BAB 3 levels Domeskipper; it gives everything I need plus some extra things, and that 1st level Falling Star stance looks sweet when used with Coherent Light (it does work with it, does it?).. Plus it has some exotic flavor to it.
Would this be an acceptable setup? If so, I'll make the sheet plus background/description (still considering your ideas btw, Flay) in the next days hopefully.
