There is no need to multi-class or waste feats on Sneak Attack if you want offensive power for your Beguiler.

Instead, you can:
  • Use your 11th level Advanced Learning ability to pick up Shadow Evocation or Shadow Conjuration.
  • Invest in Use Magic Device and use wands and scrolls.
  • Look at the Item Compendium, and look at the wide variety of rods and other cool offensive items that anyone can use. And/or;
  • Use the Shadowcraft Mage build, or some toned down version of it if you think its too cheesy.


Whatever you do, don't give up caster levels. Access to higher level spells is ALWAYS more potent then a few extra points of damage from Sneak Attack, especially when you consider Precision restrictions.
