Alright, so I am playing Storm King's Thunder and I'm working on a character that started as a rogue but I want to multiclass to be able to kill a giant on the first turn of a fight!
So far what I have is:
Rogue 3 (Assassin)
Ranger 3 (Gloomstalker)
Fighter 2
Assume I already have 20 DEX and the Sharpshooter feat (house rules, we use a high power standard array with an 18 in it and I am a feral tief, and we all started with a bonus feat at level 1). I am currently level 3, with 3 levels in rogue (assassin), so that can't change, but the order of everything else can.
My stats are 10, 20, 12, 14, 14, 16, in order.
Assuming I take these class levels in this order, I have used Anydice and R to make the following plot of damage by level. This is pretty good, I think! These corresponding to using a longbow (my DM let me get longbow prof in exchange for my background tool profs) with sneak attack, assassin critical hit, and sharpshooter. Level 3 is just this, level 5 is with hail of thorns, level 6 is all of the above but with hunter's mark and gloom stalker benefit, and level 8 is all of this plus action surge.

My question is, how can I make this better? SKT can go up to level 13, I've heard, and knowing my group we do everything possible, so we will likely get there. So, my build only puts me up to level 8.
What else should I do? Is this the best order to take the levels like I said earlier? How do I get maximal damage output by level 13?
