Message: <blockquote data-quote="Technik4" data-source="post: 3781352" data-attributes="member: 7211">I've never played a dedicated fighter/tank role in d&d. I usually opt for the magic guy, the rogue-ish guy, the 5th wheel (go bards and monks!), or if I have to, the cleric (which is a bit of a tank, but my last cleric was 8 years ago).Anyway, please critique my build ideas and feel free to use this model as an NPC in your games!Race: Raptoran, from Races of the WildStats: Str 16, Dex 14, Con 15, Int 10, Wis 12, Cha 10Feat/Class/Skills Progression:1: Endurance, Brb1 (Climb2, Intimidate4, Jump2, Listen4, Survival4)2: Weapon Focus - Longspear, Brb1/Ftr1 (Jump3, Intimidate5)3: Short Haft, Brb2/Ftr1 (Jump4, Intimidate6, Listen5, Survival5)4: Steadfast Determination, Con +1, Brb2/Ftr2 (Jump5, Intimidate7)5: -, Flight (40 ft, Avg), Brb3/Ftr2 (Jump6, Intimidate7, Listen7, Survival6)6: Etended Rage, Brb3/Ftr3 (Jump7, Intimidate8)7: Weapon Specialization - Longspear, Brb3/Ftr4 (Jump8, Intimidate9)8: -, Rage 2/day, Str +1, Brb4/Ftr4 (Listen8, Intimidate10, Survival 8)9: Melee Weapon Mastery (Piercing), Foot Talons, Storm Talon 1 (Spot1, Intimidate11)10: Improved Flight (40 ft, Good), ST2 (Spot2, Intimidate12)11: -, Fast Flight (50 ft, Good), ST3 (Spot3, Intimidate13)12: Multiattack, Armor Specialization, ST4 (Spot4, Intimidate14)13: -, Str +1, ST5, Fast Flight (60 ft, Good) (Spot5, Intimidate15)14: Driving Attack, ST6 (Spot6, Intimidate16)15: Defensive Sweep, Improved Foot Talons, ST7 (Spot7, Intimidate 17) 16: Flyby Attack, ST8 (Spot8, Intimidate18)17: -, Fast Flight (80 ft, Good), Str +1, ST9 (Spot9, Intimidate 19)18: ???, ???, ST10 (Spot10, Intimidate20)Am I better off as a straight-barbarian? I'm trying to prove that medium armor isn't useless, but in reality the only difference between a breastplate and a chain shirt is +1 AC, -10 movement (and I need fighter levels to fly in medium armor). Seems like a lot of work for flying in medium armor, and barbarian abilities like Imp Uncanny Dodge and Damage Reduction are making me think dual-classing is not the way to go... Suggestions?</blockquote>
