[QUOTE="Jackinthegreen, post: 6196127, member: 6678119"] You'll want to read the edit I added. Please include race and other stats because yes, those are meaningful. Especially if you've got a racial ability that the build needs, which you've implied there is with your reply to my suggestion of going Dragonborn. Finding stuff that has synergy with your race can also be quite helpful. Even if you get TWF and ITWF for free, that alone does not make the style a viable option compared to other possibilities. Even Favored Enemy doesn't add enough to make it viable. I'd probably stick with a 2-hander and then go with the archery style just in case you can't close in on your opponents. Going with a two-handed weapon could also allow you to make great use of the [URL="http://dndtools.eu/feats/complete-warrior--61/favored-power-attack--1093/"]Favored Power Attack[/URL] feat. If you absolutely must use TWF, there is the [URL="http://dndtools.eu/feats/players-handbook-ii--80/two-weapon-pounce--2999/"]Two-Weapon Pounce[/URL] feat which will allow you to attack with both weapons on a charge without needing the actual pounce ability. Combine this with a couple lances and you can deal some nice damage. But don't bother with tempest to get extra accuracy. You'd be able to get more than that by taking fighter levels and getting the [URL="http://dndtools.eu/feats/players-handbook-ii--80/melee-weapon-mastery--1917/"]Melee Weapon Mastery[/URL] feat. Mathematically, tempest will not work for you like you want it to here. The return on the investment of feats and levels is not worthwhile. [/QUOTE]
