[QUOTE="StreamOfTheSky, post: 4553480, member: 35909"] Agile Shield Fighter lets you TWF with a shield without needing the high dex of the TWF feat. It also doesn't care if you're using a heavy or light shield, so it's like getting Oversized TWF as well. Shield Bash as an offhand attack would use full BAB, yes. -Looking at your stats, you seem to have a 15 str as giving a +3, this is not the case. -Does this include the +1 bonuses at levels 4 and 8? -I think you overvalue charisma. It'd be much better to put youe high stat in strength, IMO. By level 8, you'll already have plenty of challenges per day, even with a +2 cha, and the DC will still be high enough to work on low will save targets. Against foes with decent will saves, they have a fair chance of making it either way. Far as feats... if Sword and Fist is allowed, you should make sure to take Knockdown, as soon as possible! Really, it's just too good to pass up. Basically (and this is remembering from like 4 years ago), it does something to the effect of a free trip on a foe any time you deal 10 or more damage to him. If you could change from longsword to lance and find some way to get a mount not prone to dying, you'd be much better off, but with those limited resources, your only option may be the leadership feat. Always bugged me Knights get a mounted focus and options, but no way of getting a mount. If you do stay grounded, Enlarge Person should be a buff spell you use (potion, ally caster, ally caster w/ wand you bought, whatever) nearly every fight in order to gain reach. [/QUOTE]
