[QUOTE="Theroc, post: 4775113, member: 83115"] Alright. I've been asking various questions beforehand trying to make a build myself. Working on a Militaristic Warforged (Set in a Non-Eberron setting where Warforged are not common, in a setup similar to sparta). The campaign/adventure is using the Book of Experimental Might, but I myself don't own the book, so I cannot just go straight fighter(as Fighter is heavily altered past level 2 and I can't access the changes and such that the book uses), so I planned to go Fighter 2/Barbarian X. Other things of note for the campaign: Characters gain a feat at every level, not every third. Prereqs are unchanged. [B][U]Ability Scores[/U][/B] 28 point buy (slightly modified). 8 = 0 points 9 = 1 points 10 = 2 points 11 = 3 points 12 = 4 points 13 = 5 points 14 = 6 points 15 = 7 points 16 = 9 points 17 = 11 points 18 = 14 points Anyways, I'm not concerned with this character being a skillmonkey or particularly wise or charismatic, since in the setting he'd be built as an experimental construct soldier. But I am seeking advice for making a very blunt fighter/Barbarian who basically goes all in, "Hulk smash!" when on the offense, and able to protect allies when needed(The rules allow me to hop in and take a hit for my allies). Mainly, I am wondering what Armor I should take for my Warforged. The basic composite plating seem illsuited for just about anything, as it provides little armor, and gives ASF(though that's irrelevant for me). Adamantine appears like it would be good... but I'm also realizing there's no way to increase that AC further, and that it hinders my Dex to AC heavily, making it hard to increase AC during the levelling process. Anyone have suggestions? [/QUOTE]
