Baseborn Titan Fighter 58 / Rogue 2

[louisvilleslugger]

My first attempt was a dud according to the experts.

see other version here:
highergroundpoa.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=builds&action=display&n=1&thread=7023


see below for 2nd reworked version.

Looks better...
For fine tuning: I would take earlier the feats Improved critical: B. Sword and Legendary Weapon Focus: B. Sword.
(For the skills I have no opinion at the moment.)

Cheers

Why baseborn titan?

Craft weapon and craft armor don't count towards the normal caps.

I had a fighter with greater knockdown and greater disarm which I found useless. He had 56 fighter levels so yours might do better, however getting flat-footed makes these extremely hazardous. I had lower AB on my tank so the improved kd and disarm were useless in hells, but if you want to use those a WM would do much better.

Any reason you have an attachment to the fighter class? Its just about the worst tanking class currently. It doesnt pack much of a punch, it has no crit immunity, epic dodge isnt worth much when swarmed (and that is 90% of the time), etc. Your UMD will be too low to use the crit immune ring without finding a bonus to UMD. The fighter secret is mediocre.

Paladin or CoT would be a better match for baseborn, and WM a better offense tank with some crit immune.

Your character wont need a will save in hells much, however it may hurt a lot to have it so low. I always get mine up to 64 even on tanks that dont lose anything from amnesia.
