Wanted to post a build to see if I might be missing anything. My goal is to be a picker first, who hurls secondarily.

I would like to cover the gamut of situations able for a hurler (shielded hurler, TWC hurler, sniping hurler), so there is shield use, dodging, and brawling (post TWC hurl DS) added into this build.

Thanks in advance for the criticism:
Armor Use (1.0X)
Shield Use (1.0X)
Thrown Weapons (2.0X)
Brawling (1.0X)
Two Weapon Combat (2.0X)
Combat Maneuvers (1.0X)
Ambush (2.0X)
Physical Fitness (1.0X)
Dodging (1.0X)
Disarm Traps (3.0X)
Picking Locks (3.0X)
Perception (2.0X)
Arcane Symbols (1.0X) until 10 ranks
Harness Power (1.0X) CoL/mana for spells someday

ambush won't help you hurl (no ambush bonus' in hurling from hiding). you also went to self cast up to traplore (404)

rolfard, I was taking this from the wiki:
"The Ambush and Combat Maneuvers skills factor into aimed hurled attacks from the open. Ambush skill alone is taken into account when aiming from hiding"

And yes, I'm going to have to squeeze in the lores somehow.

it will help you hitting the mark but you can get that from ~35 ranks of ambush according to a recent study.

Karly is set up as a picker and hurler from hiding, though she is mostly a picker. Also not around much these days, but I mention it because hurling from hiding is pretty cool. It may not be the most efficient hunting method, but it's pretty sweet when objects fly out of no where.

You also don't necessary need to be full 2x in twc... I didn't have any problems 1.25-1.5x.

Darn, wish i played around more with a hurling / picking build opposed to full combat when I had a chance with a bandolier.
