Apr 03, 2008 7:47:45 Hi, I'm a DM and I'm building a dungeon limited to humanoids with the goblinoid or reptilian subtype. Could someone suggest a race, feats, and class? The ability scores I'm allowing (Not in order) are 16, 16, 16, 13, 13, 10. Max CR is 7. Books are in the signature, thanks in advance.

Apr 03, 2008 14:17:20 Black Scale Lizardfolk, MM 3. Barbarian levels, Wolf Lodge Berserker from Unapproachable East, Imp. Trip. Armbands of might, torc of the titan, brute gauntlets.

At least a +17 to trip with a sweeping guisarme +1. 20 foot reach, natural weapons threaten adjacent.

Not entirely optimized, but a pair of them would make for a difficult encounter.

Apr 03, 2008 14:25:50 Use wolf totem barbarian from unearthed arcana/srd to get improved trip at level 2 without meeting prereqs (costs you uncanny dodge). There's always Exotic Weapon Proficiency (Spiked Chain) and a level or two of Exotic Weapon Master (if you can meet the BAB 6 requirement).

Get a Sweeping Living Chain (Living Chain also from MiC) and trip attack from Exotic Weapon Master.

Improved Trip (4) + Wolf Berzerker (4) + Sweeping (2) + Living Chain (2) + trip attack stunt (2) = 14 +size and strength; add in BruceLeeroy's suggested equipment and it gets even better
