Shortbow is D8 damage with +2 proficiency bonus (you add +2 to attack rolls when you use it and are proficient with it)
Attack bonuses are based upon specific stats dependant on class or build, all your ranged attacks should use your dex as a base.

As a Striker your best best would be to go for accuracy, so a feat like Bow expertise might be the way to go.
+1 to hit per tier and +1 damage to single targets (not adjacent to anyone else) per tier.

There is a multiclass feat that will enable you to use sneak attack, I take it quite abit, you can only do it once per encounter though I believe.

Hey, Sneak Attack is my thing.

In other news, welcome to the game RedheadedWhiteSomething. I wonder how your character will be introduced.

[Redheadedwhiteguy]

So my attack with bow expertise would be 1d8+4dex+1magic weapon+1bow expertise+1half lvl with rerolls on 1 and 2 due to halfling shortbow hunter.  My rolls to hit would be d20+4Dex+2profeciancy bonus+1magic weapon+1half lvl.  Sorry number2 I was trying to figure the best build so as to bring the Pain.  I'm excited about how I will be introduced as well.  Thanks for everyone's assistance, it has been invaluable.

After Im in the trees can I move through the branches as difficult terrain.

[Tondi-]

like from tree to tree or branch to branch?  There'd be acrobatics checks or plain jumping for anything none adjacent.

[Redheadedwhiteguy]

I see the character moving through the branches to get line of sight to the whole battlefield.

[thenewnumber2]

No problem Mr. Redhead... I was just teasing Tondi-, I didn't know it was your idea. It seems like on the whole, your character has got a much different combat style from Rikkon's way of going about things.

[Redheadedwhiteguy]

No problem, Rikkon seems to be a "face" where as Shadow prefers to stay out of sight till he starts raining arrows on our foes.

I'm looking over data from blogs and forums, if any information I post is wrong please let me know.
I get 6 healing surges +4 for my con mod + 1 for being a halfling.

My health will be 12+18=30+5(second lvl)=35

I think I'll choose hide armor so my ac should be 10+4(dex)+3=18,  the point blank shortbow gives a plus 2 to ac against oa.  I also get a plus 2 against oa for being a halfling.

Shadow is a crafter who builds weapons from whatever the environment provides.  His skill at surviving on his own and bringing in kills that Ruby provided is what brought him to the attention of the Elders.
