05-09-07, 09:36 AM I always thought hulking hurler fit well with the reaping mauler. You get some throwing feats, and can take things like fling enemy i think its called. MEaning you can throw them if you cant auto kill.

what is your base class though? because that could really change things. If you were a monk i would say consider going back into monk, or picking up a couple of levels of tattooed monk.

05-09-07, 09:46 AM the best combination is with bear warrior but you are already big.

05-09-07, 10:54 AM I will be starting with monk. Hulking Hurler requires Large size. I don't like the taste of bear warrior.

05-09-07, 10:56 AM I would suggest psychic warrior, some totemist (to get access to the girrilion arms), but I would be a half-giant. I would take the exotic weapon proficientcy for the scorpion claws, and the open least or lesser chacra for arms. I once calculated with a half-giant without expansion at about level 6 could have something in the forties range.

but make sure to get expansion, grip of iron, and don't forget about diminsion swap so you can save your little squishy wizard with around 20 health.

fling feats are always great.

05-09-07, 11:12 AM Well, I am not a fan of Incarnum, and I have already decided to use a Goliath. Psychic Warriar may not be a bad choice though.

05-09-07, 05:23 PM Not sure just where the clarification was established Dragon magazine], but the Powerful Build racial feature does count when applying for the hulking hurler PrC, so Mr Goliath can certainly qualify if he meets the other prereqs.

As for other classes, you may want to consider one of the martial adept classes from the Book of Nine Swords and look at the Setting Sun discipline for its collection of throws.

05-09-07, 09:18 PM those throws (at least the ones I've seen) require a trip attempt rather than a grapple check. Poison_Dusk is better off taking the fling enemy feat.
