So i changed my list a bit but my concerns are am i good on scoring units? should the wraithknight have the suncannon or should it run standard which would free 60 points which could be used on say a ranger squad, 3 jetbikes or even a dire avenger exarch with shield and some more shuriken cannons on the 2 waveserpents. Finally is the iyanden supplement codex worth using for this list?

Well if your scared on troops, drop the dire avengers down to 5 man, then get a squad of eldar jetbikes. Just leave them in reserve until the latest possible.
Again, i would run wraithknight stock, but thats really a matter of preference. Looks pretty good otherwise

so making the WK standard and bringing down the dire avengers to a 5 man squad then adding 6 jetbikes would better in general?

Just 1 thing, its better to have the shuikeken cannon on a serpent, because it will be twin linked. just a small thought, but still

Ah good call on the shuriken cannon and im just curious, are 5 man dire avenger squads effective?

They are effective in that they are the cheapest unlock for the WS. They are mediocre as last turn objective grabbers. I would split the bikes into two squads and maybe pull the cannon for fast shot on the avatar.

If you expect anything other than elite small opponents I would struggle to get scythes on one wraith squad.

If i split the bikes into two squads should they both still be in reserve? and i thought my Wave serpents could handle bigger squads while the Wraithcannons can deal with small elites.

Yes reserve them both. They are designed to clear out chaff and grab objectives

I could free 50 points for 1 squad of wraithguard to get d scythes but i'd have to give up 3 jetbikes. is that worth it or is my balance between anti infantry and antitank alright?

Keep the 2 units of x3 bikes if anything take off cannons for scythes if you want otherwise cannons are fine, ID for most units at Strength 10.
