[QUOTE="Spatula, post: 664661, member: 2198"] What's getting in the way of your character being super-effective is that you have no focus - you've got Ambi but not 2WF, you've got Dodge & Mobility but not Spring Attack, you're got Weapon Focus & Improved Crit. but not Weapon Specialization. You can improve your melee damage by taking Spec. at 10th level and Power Critical (from Masters of the Wild) at 12th. Power Attack & Cleave are also good choices, but don't bother with Great Cleave because it's extremely rare that you'll ever get to use it. Power Attack turns BAB into damage, and Cleave gives you an extra attack when you down a foe (which increases your damage indirectly). If you have the intelligence, you can pick up Expertise at 10th and both Spring Attack and Whirlwind Attack at 12th - doing so won't increase your damage output but it gives you more options in combat. Or Expertise at 10th and then start taking rogue levels, picking up Expert Tactician at 12th. Your character does seem focused on being quick and mobile, the Duelist PrC might be a good fit although you'll probably have trouble qualifying for it. [/QUOTE]
