Made a few adjustments to Ffard's 'Elven Bounty Hunter' build from topic v2.0. I just couldn't get that progression to work for me.
I also changed the STR/INT attributes to give him a bit more of a punch.
Elven Bounty Hunter
Race: Elf. Align: True Neutral
Str 14, Dex 20, Con 12, Int 10, Wis 8, Cha 8
Rogue 1 - Pointblank Shot Rogue 2 Rogue 3 - Weapon Focus Longbow Rogue 4 - Dex to 21 Rogue 5 Rogue 6 - Rapid Shot Rogue 7 Rogue 8 - Dex to 22 Bard 1 - Toughness Arcane Archer 1 Arcane Archer 2 Arcane Archer 3 - Dex to 23, Imp. Critical Longbow Arcane Archer 4 Arcane Archer 5 Arcane Archer 6 - Dodge Arcane Archer 7 - Dex to 24 Arcane Archer 8 Arcane Archer 9 - Open Feat Arcane Archer 10 Rogue 9 - Dex to 25 Arcane Archer 11 - Great Dex I (26) Arcane Archer 12 Arcane Archer 13 Arcane Archer 14 - Dex to 27, Great Dex II, III (29) Arcane Archer 15 Arcane Archer 16 Arcane Archer 17 - Epic Weapon Focus (Longbow) Rogue 10 - Dex to 30, Improved Evasion Arcane Archer 18 - Great Dex IV (31) Rogue 11 - Self Concealment I Arcane Archer 19 Arcane Archer 20 - Dex to 32 Rogue 12 - Self Concealment II Arcane Archer 21 Arcane Archer 22 - Great Dex V (33) Arcane Archer 23 - Dex to 34, Self Concealment III Rogue 13 - Defensive Roll Arcane Archer 24 Arcane Archer 25 - Epic Dodge Arcane Archer 26 - Dex to 35, Great Dex VI (36)
---------------------------------
Now here's the question I came up with after trying out this build, is there any benefit of changing out the Epic Dodge for Self Concealment IV?
With Epic Dodge the first attack per round would miss, but the concealment would mean every attack has a 40% chance to miss. Wouldn't that be better?
Please let me know what you think. _________________ ------------------------------ Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you. ------------------------------

I know this is an old build. But I like it.
Something the original poster asked got me thinking as well. If you were to drop two of the Great Dex feats. You would lose 1 ab and 1 ac, and take Self Concealment IV and V.
Any thoughts on this?
I strongly suggest not to swap ED for SCIV. Regarding your question, Great DEX feats taken as AA bonus feats cannot be swapped for SC feats.

Why not? Are they not both epic feats? And SC is taken at AA levels...

Beacuse SC is not on the AA epic bonus feat list, so he has to use general feats for them.

ahh the bonus feats. Duh on me
I'd recommend the Shadow Archer V2 /Bard 8/SD 16/AArcher 16 by syrath1001, it has ED & SCV.
