[QUOTE="Sodalis, post: 144755, member: 1791"] you can take three lvl of ftr, and at lvl 4, boost dex to 15, thereby qualifying for amb. At lower lvl, it is kinda pidly to take a off hand weapon, because you can deal more damage with double handing an axe. so: dwarven ftr- char 1, bonus ftr1: power attack, exotic weapon (waraxe) bonus ftr 2: weapon focus (waraxe) char 3: cleave bonus ftr 4: weapon spec (waraxe), abil incr (dex 15) char 6, bonus ftr 6: amb, twf by then, your BAB (6), WF (1), str (4) MW axe (1), and dual wield (-4) waraxe will give you a +8 to hit, and 1d10 +6 (4 str, 2 w spec) to damage. this way, you have twf and amb as feats (not virtual) and so can wear heavy armor- FP and not lose anything. Also, at higher lvl, you can get boots of spring/stride (double base speed) and get dodge, mobility, spring attack, which is very useful. at lvl 9, you can take impr crit, and keen your weapons. High dex menas you can also take cmobat reflex (extra AoO) Also, if you want to take another route, you can put the dex on int and go ftr/duelist. that way, you can take a short sword in off hand and get int bonus to AC and also off hand parry (S&F) Another favorite of mine is to go ftr/psionic warrior. both have a bonus feat progression, and if you psywarr as you main class, you will be able to manifest some cool abilities to complement your fighting skills... But that is only your DM allows psionics. [/QUOTE]
