Wrong forum for questions like this. This is just for builds.
Some creatures are sneak immune, bur primarly because its a waste to use a FEAT for a possible 1d6 extra dmg. Better max your main ability score (ex Great dex 10), put in epic saves and other nice stuff for dexers like self concealment or epic dodge.
When you get a DB weapon with 6x 2d12 elemental damages, a few d6s on top of that again isnt that fantastic.

My point is: with taking so many improved sneak attacks you miss out 10 !! epic feats, and you will lack in : - saves - ac - ab and the legendary areas will eat you for breakfast.

At the cost of what, Self Conceal 5, Epic Dodge, Great Dex X? I think you'll find your ac (and I'm including SC and epic dodge in your ac here) and ab will suffer quite a lot with the loss of 10 feats. And you won't be much of an archer as you can't use the Dustbone bows as they are tagged for AA only. Oooh you must have beaten my post by seconds!

u righ, self conceal isnt the great problem, couse i can have a good conceal with assassin ability but low AB is always a problem with this servers today, meaby if i mix this with AA i can reach more AB and still get some imp sneak and great dex, with the buils i thinking i get epic dodge in lvl 25 i think

Have a look at my Dark Archer build for some ideas but obviously you'll have to build in a caster and AA so you'll only get one other class and it looks like rogue would be your favorite. I'd go Elf (unless you want to use a subrace) and go one wiz (to prevent an exp penalty), eight AA pre-epic to get your ab up (and four attacks) and then the rest rogue to get you the sneak attacks you want (+16d6) and loads of rogue bonus feats. Even if you used assassin I'd discount the conceal as it can be dispelled and is only one use per day. Self conceal is a must have for just about all dexer builds here especially for toons without shields.
