[QUOTE="StreamOfTheSky, post: 5883136, member: 35909"] Your hp seems low for 3d12+16 (first d12 is maxed)...hmm...average hp 34.5, nevermind. I would drop cha to 10 and raise con to 14, especially if you're planning to use Concentration. You forgot +2 synergy for jump and tumble from each other, respectively. Also missing tumble's synergy to balance...you may want to double check synergies in general, you seem to be missing a lot. It's hard to read your maneuvers section, I'm gonna translate it into my system... Maneuvers (IL 4; [s]5[/s] 6 known, 4 readied): 1 Sapphire NM Blade (DM, S) 1 Steel Wind (IH, S) 1 Wolf Fang Strike (TC, S) 1 Charging Minotaur (SD, S) [gained from Martial Study] 2 Mountain Hammer (SD, S) 2 Disarming Strike (IH, S) Stances: 1 Punishing Stance (IH; -2 AC for +1d6 melee damage) 1 Leading the Charge (WR; Allies w/in 60 ft deal +IL damage on a charge) You...have absolutely nothing but strikes. Can work I guess. I'd suggest dropping Wolf Fang Strike and adding Sudden Leap (you need WFS to get Sudden Leap, but can consider it the maneuver you swapped at 4th level for another 2nd level maneuver). I also don't think Sapphire NM Blade will be terribly good for you; you could drop it, save the feat on Martial Study, and get some other feat if you prefer. Or just get a different 1st level maneuver. Moment of Perfect Mind to cover your poor will save could be good. Also, since you're doing a disarm focus, keep in mind. You cannot use combat maneuvers like disarm on martial strikes, unless the strike specifically lets you (like the Disarming Strike you have). Other than those, you'd need regular melee attacks if you want to disarm. Or you could on AoOs. Just making you aware. Are you sure there's no other feats you want? Like, Improved Initiative...you can just grab that as your Warblade bonus feat next level... [/QUOTE]
