Cynric 04-07-07, 06:48 AM	Ok. Haveing a look at the fact that I soon will not have a low level character, I have come up with the following. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The theory is a blacksmith, hence the hammer, who gets caught up in this adventuring thing. He is good with the hammer from his blacksmiths apprenticeship and while a little on the slow side, has the wisdon to know what works, hence the combat focus feats. Plus I really like the idea of walking up to the bad guy at high level, hitting it once and yelling how many hit points it has to the rest of the party:D Human Str 18 Dex 8 Con 14 Int 8 Wis 14 Cha 8 All stat buys go into strength Fighter 1 EWP Goliath Greathammer or Maul Combat focus and P Attack Fighter 2 Weapn Focus Appropriate Hammer Fighter 3 Exotic Armour Prof Heavy Fighter 4 Weapon Spec Appropriate Hammer Fighter 5 Nothing Special Fighter 6 Power Crit and Blindfight Fighter 7 Nothing Special Fighter 8 Melee Weapon Mastery Fighter 9 Combat Vigor Fighter 10 Greater Weapon Focus Fighter 11 Nothing Special Fighter 12 Armor Spec and Heavy armour Optimization Fighter 13 Nothing Special Fighter 14 Combat Awareness Fighter 15 Imp Crit or Greater Weapon Spec He ends up with DR 2\- and fast healing 2 at level 12 once he has hit something, hopefuly allowing some tactical options.

(and more con) I already have dwarven fughter who is doing Red hand and he is built with the typical dwarven waraxe and high con and AC without Deepwarden levels. Otherwise I would definately be doing it that way. Plus I am feat starved for everything I want in there as is.
_metz_ 04-07-07, 07:27 AM	I think a combat cleric with the fire and creation domains would work better, especially with the wisdom, but hey.... I do like the idea though, any flavour character is OK by me ;)

Cynric 04-07-07, 11:06 PM	"Nothing Special" is really unhelpful text Nothing special as in base fighter level, no extra feats etc.

JamesMaissen 04-08-07, 10:45 AM	Plus I am feat starved for everything I want in there as is. I'm not the biggest fan of power critical, what's the appeal for it for you? Assuming you are going to be in heavy armor, Dwarf seems like a much better choice for you. Even if you go with human, most any other feat seems a better choice for you. Likewise the heavy armor profs seem weak for feats imho. Trading a feat for +1 AC is a hard sell in my mind. Consider that any single feat on the list could be traded in for say rage and uncanny dodge (as well as more skills and hp) at the very least. A pair of levels in exotic weaponsmaster could also do well here. -James
