But take at least 7 . Ask your DM if you can use a musket . It is not that big of a problem . If is a musket , not a laser weapon . Use downtime for that . Take sharpshooter . Your animal goes by and use bonus action as help use a flying snake , which has a solid damage and flyby , then you attack with sharpshooter and still do sneak attack , then your beast attack . Good combo , get you a pretty decent damage , lot of skills , some spells , a companion and it would be fun . Also , you can ask for your DM so he can let you have a simple animal with some tweaks . Like , asking for a hawk with flyby , that is not to bad , neither strong , it would only be fitting the character . There is also the pteranodon , but as I told you to go with musket , it is alryd a little of the grid . If both are no , heavy crossbow and flying snake .
