So using a spiked chain and I have enough cash to make it a +2 or +3 and wanted some ideas. 9th level 4 rogue/5 swash buckler.

No dragon magazine/No evil.

Feats:
Craven
Daring outlaw
Power attack
EW spiked chain

Combat reflexes (open to suggestions to replace). Right now with power attack 1 I am doing 2d4+24+5d6.

Any suggestions for what to add to spike chain or to replace combat reflexes?

Edit: Sure it doesn't matter but for his background I have speed 40 and high jump and climb No Flaws allowed

Off the top of my head blurstrike stands out forces people flat-footed a few times a day.

To be clear its +2 or +3 over all? or +2 or +3 worth of enchantments? Im fairly certain spiked chain is a double weapon so you would need to do each side separately.

Currently it is +1 for enhancement I can add on +1 or +2 more to it before I start the character. And spiked chain is not double.

Then ya I recommend Blurstrike form Races of the Wild

But is that's not your cup of tea Id go with a traditional damage booster either Flaming or the like Bane (If you are sure you are fighting one group reliably) or just +3 for the extra accuracy and 2 points more damage.

Thanks for the idea. Might work well since I only have two attacks

Seconding Blurstrike. Get your d6s on.

If you just want damage collision is always good.

Ok any other ideas? I'm not to concerned about hitting and We do have a barbarian who will help me with flank.

Assassination (+1) and Deadly Precision (+1) both give an extra d6 of sneak attack damage.

Eager (+1) and Warning (+1) are initiative boosters. Combined they give +7 initiative.

Skillful (+1) will give you proficiency with it so you can retrain EWP for something more useful.
