Hey Zink, nice build, but the Dex needs to be higher. If you set str and dex to 16 to start, and spread the other points a little more evenly, keep int around 14, you'd still end up with a playable char, then, take one point of str on lvl up, and put all the rest in dex. The 10 RDD lvls will put your str to 25, but you'll end up with a really nice bow ab with the dex points up there, good damage, if your bow has the Mighty feat, and with the staff. The one flaw that I found with this type of build, dev crit in more than one weapon, is that you lose the focus in one or the other, and end up sort of mediocre with both. That is how Anah lost out in the EfU tourney, too many feats spread out over the range of weapons, instead of focusing on the one. Granted, in the OC's it won't be as big a deal, but in a high magic world, the less you spread out the better.
Overall, the bard/rdd/arcane archer is a really strong build though, and one that I particularly like.
