Scaled Monk build questions

When should i take the dip into Either Bard/Archaeologist or Crossblood sorc(Undecided on which is better) and when should i take the 4 dip into dragon disciple.
I dont want to accidentally hamper my self early on because some encounters before and during Drezen and can be difficult.

probably missing something, but i don't see any advantage for taking a dip into crossblooded sorcerer to get dragon disciple
i would chose between a dip of archaeologist or stigmatized witch

for early game archaeologist offers you grease and stigmatized witch better AC

and because scaled fist doesn't offers you much for early game outside of level 1 i would take archaelogist/stigmatized witch dip as soon as possible

another factor to be considered for midgame would be uncanny dodge and mirror image

for archaelogist you need to invest one additional level to get uncanny dodge and for stigmatized witch you need to use up a mystic feat

mirror image you get with archaeologist through dragon disciple, for stigmatized witch you would have to spend your first ascension ability on trickster

because of AC i would also get dragon disciple as soon as possible

personally i prefer to just ramp up as much AC as fast as possible for my melee heroes, so i would go for stigmatized witch
