Im looking for a good race to be, right now im thinking about an aquatic orc because they get +4 to str and con. I even took two flaws so im 3 feats away from starting the master of chains class. I was just wondering what a good race to be, or what advice or improvements could be given.

The large race has the significant advantages of improved reach and strenght and trippin' power. The trade-off is a level adjustment. Personaly I think that's a deal breaker. Human gets a feat. The trade-off is strength. The long-term benefit of the feat will not be quite worth the reduced strenght unless you want to use a class other than fighter to get where you are going.

It has a few advantages: +4 Str & +2 Con Powerful build (= whenever a goliath is subject to a size modifier or special size modifier for an opposed check the goliath is treated as one size larger if doing so is advantageous to him.) Disadvantages are a +1 Level Adjustment and a -2 Dex. Have fun,
