[QUOTE="res, post: 1584121, member: 6904"] I suppose it is min/maxing in a way, but I don't see what the big deal is with making a fighter type character who is good at the style of fighting that they do. Ask them if you should trade in some of those feats for Power Attack and Combat Expertise and maybe Improved Bull Rush. Even though your character would probably never fight with those styles, maybe you should have them so you have a well rounded character. There might have been a regional feet that you could take to maybe give your character a little more character so to speak, but if its going to be an 18th level game, the extra +2 to a few skills isn't going to do much for you. I think your ok. What is the context of the game? Are you a group of friends who will be fighting this dragon? Or maybe an Elf King or Lord has gathered the best from around the relm to go do battle with their foe? If its the latter, then you should have a lot of feats that match your fighting style (2-weapon fighting) because you are supposed to be the best at it. If your just a bunch of people who will fall in a dragon hole, then maybe you might want to swap one or two around if the min/maxing is such a huge problem to the rest of the players. [/QUOTE]
