Disarm/KD WM Stinger Version Fighter 10/ WM 29/R 1

[Werehound Silverfang]

Saw people asking for a stinger version in Mish's thread, so I figured I'd post mine. Edited version off of the PvP server I play on to fit Stinger bonus feats, LL levels, and available items in-game. The original build gets 79 AB with a +20 weapon on a normal server at level 40.

Race - Human
Subrace - Stinger Duh

960 HP (with +12 CON from items) at level 60.

I'm pretty sure my calculations are correct, so without Demi, or STR artifact, you should have 100 AB with a +13 weapon.

You could opt to go for rogue at (Lose +2 AB from level 30 WM) level 40, and gain UMD, but you'd lose 40 points to one of your LL skills, and/or skip on LSA Tumble and 4 AC for another LL feat. With the 40-43 UMD, you could use BBoD and GS scrolls for when the going gets rough.

Medium Armor benefits this build, with 26-buffed, non-demi dexterity, allowing combos for armor including Ssithrak Skirmisher Scale (implode immune for Sissy taggers).

You could choose to read the KD Pandect, garnering 2 free pre-epic feats, in which case you could nab Iron Will and Lightning Reflexes, which gives you the ability to take Legendary Will or Legendary Reflexes at level 60.

This is my first fighter on HG, so tell me what you vets think, and possible changes to the build. Hoping to give back the the community that has benefited me so much.

Mine is only level 43 ATM.

Level 40 Saves:
Fortitude: 22
Reflex: 22
Will: 18

I haven't confirmed these in a CBC spreadsheet, but if true, these are awful saves. At 60, you'd be topping out at 53/53/49, which will cause you to suffer a variety of embarassing circumstances (including amnesia, confusion, and instant death).

The 4-5 feats you spend on Dev Crit are better spent on fixing those saves. The extra multiplier just isn't worth it IMO. Note that you don't get the extra crit range from Overwhelming Crit, since you are a WM.

Also, Mish's build explains clearly why dropping the Rogue level is not a good idea. Ignore his wisdom at your peril.

That'd also help with the saves. Mish's WM used it for some free feats early on too.

Don't forget that Koly has more bonus feats at start so there is less for you to choose for all the requirements.

You could lower starting strength by 2 and add 2 to constitution for +1 fortitude, and 2 to wisdom for +1 will. and still have pretty darn good AB. Heck, with the racial bonuses you could lower it a further 2 points to spend where you see fit. You won't have to hold off on levels for the feats listed.

I tried.
You could hold off on the weapon focus, take Luck of Heroes at level 1, and then have LL Luck available for the level 60 feat, giving +3 to allo saves.

borges I did explain about taking rogue at level 40 instead of 1 last WM level.
