seeing a disarmer at work during a phleg run made me want to do something similar. this is what i came up with - i hope the AB, coupled with large size/weapon is enough to effectively disarm the tougher baddies out there (not aiming for the toughest - PFs, males, but 1 tier less tough makes me happy enough
decided to go for a 'pure' gdd, because of an additional epic bonus feat, and highest level fear aura
pros:
pure xDD awesomeness (large size etc)
10-20x3 crits with halberd (for double slash/pierce damage types)
can hit 127 search
high listen
25% immune fire
firewalking
lots of hitpoints
high enough AB (104 effectively) to disarm a lot of critters (PFs, males and similar things will be very hard though)
UMD
cons:
no crit immune
(dev crit version in parantheses)
human Salamander
str 17->23 (16->22)
dex 12->14 (13->15)
con 12 (14)
int 14->16
wis 8
cha 11
all increases in strength
leveling progression:
1 bard, 10 gdd, 1 bard, 7 wm, 1 bard, 20 gdd
feats (all in order):
pre-epic:
1 expertise, luck of heroes
3 martial weapon proficiency
6 weapon focus
9 spring attack
12 whirlwind attack
15 skill focus search (power attack)
18 improved critical
epic:
21 epic weapon focus
| epic toughness I-IX
39 epic prowess (cleave)
40 epic toughness
legendary:
42 legendary weapon focus
45 legendary luck
48 disarm (great cleave)
51 improved disarm (overwhelming critical)
54 epic reflexes
57 epic will
60 great strength (devastating critical)
pandect:
if you have the disarm pandect, simply reincarnate and swap for 2 Gstr for +1 AB.
artifact:
strength, obviously, for +1 AB
skills: (558 points total... and no able learner sadly)
4 intimidate (costs 8, crossclass, before level 13)
63 discipline
63 parry
63 listen
30 tumble (costs 37, dump at 20 + crossclass)
63 craft weapon
63 craft armor
63 search
63 lore
23 UMD (dump at 20)
49 points leftover for concentrationand ... spot?
stats at 60, fully buffed etc... :
str 74+32
dex 26+8
con 34+12
int 34+12
wis 20+5
cha 29+9
fort 1+7+2+12+46+10+5+20=61
refl 3+3+5+8+8+10+5+20=62
will 3+7+2+5+8+10+5+20=60
AB 16+10+12+1+7+20+2+33=101 (104 effective disarming AB with aura on)
AC 10+2+30+16+16+16+16+20+1=128 (132 with girdling, 135 in BUR gear+gird)
with LSF craft weapon, double demi, the disarm pandect and STR artifact, AB will hit 104/105 (107/108 effectively)
ask the friendly neighbourhood cleric to GR you while tanking the tougher baddies if you are suffering from penalties...
