#1 noheat Mar 19, 2008 21:45:12	I'm working out a dungeoncrasher build and wanted to present it to the CO masters and get some opinions and pointers. Right now I've built him to utilize AoOs to deal out as much punishment as possible. Suggestions can come from pretty much any WotC source. Human 32pt build Str 18, Dex 16, Con 14, Int 8, Wis 8, Cha 8 Fighter 6/Crusader 2/Warblade 12 F1 - Jotubrud, Power Attack, Improved Bullrush F2 - Dungeoncrasher F3 - Knockback F4 - EWP (Talenta Sharrash *pre-errata 1d10 19-20 X4 with reach) F5 F6 - Shocktrooper, Dungeoncrasher Cru1 Cru2 (Thicket of Blades stance) WB1 - Combat Reflexes WB2 WB3 WB4 - Robilar's Gambit WB5 - Improved Initiative WB6 WB7 - Defensive Sweep WB8 WB9 - Iron Heart Aura WB10 - Stormguard Warrior WB11 WB12 Thanks for any suggestions

It has virtually no mass compared to its size and would get stuck in your target with every worthwhile hit. I mean, I know it works game-technically. But outside of power-ranger physics where every hit of any kind causes a sparkly explosion that tosses people backward, I just can't envision it.

When something between two and four times bigger than you hits you with something, it doesn't matter a whole lot how big or heavy it is; you can still get knocked flying.

If you replace the two Crusader levels with two Warblade levels, you can get 9th level maneuvers. Grab Thicket of Blades via feats (2) instead. Also, the build has multiclass XP penalties.

Damn, those dreaded multiclass XP penalties!!! I always forget that. I was going to try to get the Thicket of Blades via feats at one point, but thought this way was easier. I guess it's back to the drawing board. Thanks again for all the help.
