Hello folks, does anyone know if the damage granted by Combat Insight stacks with the Swashbuckler's Insightful Strike?

It stacks as far as I know, but combat insight replaces str damage. Insightful strike will stack with STR damage (and DEX damage from CotW elegant strike).

Anyone know if combat insight would add damage to an archer build? (like how mighty works with str)

"Combat Insight From NWN2Wiki Jump to: navigation, search Type of feat: Epic Prerequisite: Character level 21, Combat Expertise, Epic Prowess, BAB 15 Required for: None Specifics: When wielding a melee weapon add your Intelligence modifier, rather than your Strength modifier, to the weapon's damage rolls. Use: Automatic" nwn2.wikia.com/wiki/Combat_Insight Guess not. :/

so you could make a really str gimp character and pull epic goodness off thats pretty cool. Getting there would be massively hard.

with the availability of str belts I think you could get there relatively easily. AC is more important than damage.
However, combat insight "replaces", while insightful strike, *stacks*.
So, two levels of swashbuckler (if you can afford it) might be a better choice.
hmm.....wizard/swashbuckler/CoTW/Swiftblade wonder how that would work out (str + dex + int to damage rolls) + arcane spell casting. AB might need some love though.

I've been wondering too, for months, now. Unfortunately, needing medium armor prof, heavy armor prof, and martial weapons prof for cotw makes it not feasible.

swashbuckler gives you martial and light so you need medium and heavy, WF, combat expertise dodge and mobility. So, if I do my math right you need level 21 to get all of them 25 with extend spell and practiced spell caster
so start out with a 5 levels of wizard and 2 of swashbucker taking dodge and mobility. Level straight up to 10 swift blade. Then whaterver gets you to ~21 the fastest
Hit the character releveler and level wizard and swashbuckler concentrating on the feats that will get you to CoTW the fastest, do 2 levels of CoTW and use the bonus feat to give you mobility for swiftblade and then level up swiftblade as high as you can and continue from there.
Hmm, might work out better with a character planner, I'll play around with it later tonight
