Human Werebear Build (In Process)

[Tetsubo]

I'm working on a Human Werebear build.

Based on this article: <http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/sp/20031114a>.

I'm having a problem with picking Feats for 9th, 12th, 15th and 18th level. I am also open to suggestion for ones I have already chosen. I plan on having him be primarily attacking with the bite/claw/claw routine. he will carry a large melee weapon ofter 4th character level as a back-up. He will also use javelins as ranged weapons.

Any thoughts?

Take a level of Monk, get improved grapple and add your Wisdom bonus to your AC. For Combat Reflexes and Evasion, take a second level.

I second szilard although I would go 2 levels of Monk & take imp grapple, evasion and another bonus feat-deflect arrows, the +3 fort +3 reflex +3 will couldnt hurt nothing! Then 2 levels of Paladin for all those goodies adding cha to saves, lay on hands, detect evil, etc well maybe thats a little min max but helpfull to the build? yes.

(there is a pc that I play with thast picks 2 Monk/ 2 Paladin for every one of his builds)
