I am playing a half-orc fighter, rolled my stats, and got (after racial adj)
str 16/dex 13/con12/int 7/wis 11/chr 9. He will likely bump up strength every 4 levels, unless there is a compelling reason not to.
My DM is letting us take all skills as class skills, and I went for Diplomacy and will max it out (trying to be nice as a way of overcoming discrimination). I am probably the only "Face" character in the party (it is a fairly hack and slash game).
I am trying for a tactical feel on feats, and also want to avoid taking weapon focus, etc., too soon so that I don't end up with a choice between the more powerful magic weapon and the one I focused on.
He is allowed a heroic path from Midnight, so I took Iron-born.
So, using feats from the PHB, and the first 4 completes, I came up with this:
1. Power Attack, Cleave
2. Dodge (current level)
3. Improved Unarmed Strike
4. Mobility
6. Elusive Target, Improved Bull Rush
8. Shock Trooper
9. Improved Sunder
10. Combat Brute
12. Combat Reflexes, Hold the Line
14. Close Quarter Fighting
15. Great Cleave
16. Weapon Focus
18. Greater Weapon Focus, Weapon Specialization
20. Greater Weapon Specialization
So will this character serve? Any tips or ideas?
