Final Stats:
Monk 9/Wiz 4/AA 27

Fort: 23
Reflex: 29
Will: 30

Barehand Attack: 1-10 (20/ x2)

AB (Fist): +28/25/22/19/16/13
AB (Longbow): +52/47/42/37

Wow. That looked so much nicer in Excel.
This Archer ends up with a high Hide/Move Silently, a good Longbow Attack, and can go hand-to-hand if absolutely necessary.
I thought a 4th level of Wiz would make a difference but it didn't, so if I did this again, I'd probably do 10 Monk levels.

Nice build, now here are some thoughts for you:

Why are you taking the WM line of feats (Expertise, Spring Attack, Whirlwind Attack)? I don't see how those could be useful in this build - especially Whirlwind Attack. You mention you can go hand-to-hand but I would think that was as a last resort, and so no feats should be used towards that goal. Those feats appear to take away from your archery effectiveness. Instead of WM pre-qualifying feats, you could take Epic Constitution to increase your HP's for instance.

Wizard levels - rather than three or four, why not take only two Wizard levels? 2 Wiz, 9 Monk levels, and 29 AA levels? What does one or two more wizard levels get you that is better than the extra Attack Scores from the Archer levels? You could take the first wizard level to qualify for AA, and then take the second level at character level 38-40 to max Spellcraft. Then take your last Monk level in there too to max Tumble and Discipline (if you have enough skill points).

Just some thoughts.

Thanks for posting.

Kaliban If you lower your Widom by one to start with, you could have:

Starting Stats:
STR- 10
DEX- 14
CON- 11 (12)
WIS- 17 (26)
INT- 14
CHA- 8

OR:

Starting Stats:
STR- 12
DEX- 14
CON- 12
WIS- 16 (26)
INT- 14
CHA- 8

I took those mostly for those situations when I was surrounded and had no one to help me, as an archer doesn't need a whole bunch or feats (and since I couldn't do Weapon Specialization, Overwhelming Crit or Dev. Crit).
I suppose I could've used 2 of them for Great Constitution or more Toughness feats, tho.

And you're right about the Wizard levels- I suppose I just felt weird with only two.

True, but I have virtually no use for strength in this build. However, looking at this again, I could've had STR 10 and DEX 16 at the start if I'd also started with WIS 16 and CON 10.

Strength is always helpful when you have a Mighty bow, plus 40HP more is never a bad thing. And the initial increase of intellegence would net you 23 more skill points.
