[QUOTE="James the Newbie, post: 5937157, member: 6692006"] This is a concept for a character my freind wants, and I want to help him. He wants the most physicaly capable character that could be created, but when it comes to magic, problem solving and other such things, he isnt particularly concerned (Though he enjoys seeing the group use spells and disarm traps, so he fits in well with us no worries there) We are starting a new campaign in a few weeks. All 3.5 source books are usable, and 3.0 content is usualy allowed but it is preferable to use 3.5 instead. _____ This character wants to have near 0 abilities it needs to activate, while having an incredible natural strength. The character is becoming a half orc, as while all books are allowed, only PBH races. He has a strength of 18 he is becoming a wearbear granting +16 strength His racial bonus is +2 strength We have here 36 strength, which ofcourse, is quite large. He may use the half orc paragon rout, adding an aditional +2 Now 38 strength As soon as we get the chance, a +6 strength item will be purchased totaling 44 strength. Obviously every four levels he is adding a point to strength, and if we can get him points in inherent strength bonus, thats great, but that is kinda tricky as far as I can tell, so any suggestions on an easy method to do that would be apreciated -edit- Nezkrul added warhulk prc idea thats 10 levels to +20 str so 64 strength The rage (spell) adds a +2 moral bonus so 66 Circumstantialy we may use emoplato's useful suggestion to gain another 6 str, (as they are feats not class features this makes them more appealing) can reach 72 strength The party has a sorceror, and a wizard (The wizard being me, and happy to use any spells I can to buff him) How else can we increase the characters strength? As he is a wearbear he has already had a size increase in his stransformed state, I think this means enlarge person wont work on him? An increase in constitution and dexterity for him is also nice as any side notes but this character is ment to emphasise the simple desire to smash things. He enjoys the character concept, so if I have made a mistake in my methods of boosting his power, or missed something, please point it out. Any classes that add to strength would be apreciated if you know of them. Start 18 str + 2 half orc +20 10 level's of warhulk +2 3 levels half orc paragon +16 8 levels of wearbear +16 bite of the werebear +2 Rage +6 for invulantery rage and pain mastery +5 for choosing str boost every 4 levels +5 if we get him an inherit bonus 92 str Question: can we use polymorph to modify him into a werebear giant getting him another +16 boost (I forget the giant variant, but thats the largest I have seen) If so can we have him hit 108 str With his 'bear' hands thats +41 boost With a two handed weapon thats +60 boost If the giant thing flies then thats +49 str with his fists Or +73 with a two handed weapon ------ He will be fun to have in the party and be very good in some situations. Any more recomendations would be apreciated ofcourse, but I think this certainly captures the essence of what he seems to want (heh heh, zeus only has a strength of 55) [/QUOTE]
