i got to reading about crossbows when this popped into my head.

Basic idea: optimise inspire courage to get dragonfire inspiration giving great bonus damage. perform (quip) while using a crossbow like a shotgun.

it's not optimal, because i detest being exalted, otherwise i'd crowbar words of creation in there. so far i have:

1 Bard dragonfire inspiration, rapid reload
2 Bard
3 Bard song of the heart
4 Bard
5 Bard
6 Bard rapid shot
7 Bard
8 Bard
9 Bard crossbow sniper

it looks cool, but could use some tweaking. i'm open to multiclassing and dips. pretty much anything except dragon material goes.

Shot gun effect i would sugest using a great or heavy x bow..
as well as dipping into something with SA or Skirmish.

rapid reload lets me reload medium crossbows as a free action and heavy/great crossbows as a move.

of course, i could always drop rapid shot and take some psychic warrior for the psionic shot feats with affecting my DFI too much. i'm open to either
