IIrc, this is a reinc of the very first toon I ever made on HG. Decided to dust it off and see if I can turn it into something playable.
The design criteria are: Minotaur fighter wielding a greataxe, because I want a cow fighter, and wielding greataxes is what Minos do. As many immunities as I can fit in, so I want 3Pal for saves and Fear/Disease immunity, and 7 ShD for Evasion and Slippery Mind. With the greataxe choice comes the decision to wear a Plate of the Legendary Master, because free Over/Dev Crit is yummy. Since the plate also gives Over/Dev crit for Throwing Axe, and Fighter gets a ton of bonus feats, I decided to take full foci in Throwing Axe as well - no idea how useful that will be in practice, probably not much, but I thought I'd give it a try. This didn't leave room for fighter's special KD/Disarm feats, but for a 30F build, those are not effective anyway.
The build:
Start with 14 Str, 14 Dex, 14 Con, 8 Wis, 14 Int, 14 Cha.
After Mino mod: 18 Str, 12 Dex, 14 Con, 10 Wis, 10 Int, 10 Cha.
Alignment: Lawful Good, required for Pally levels.

Feats not associated with any level:
Epic Skill Focus (Parry)
Legendary Character
Legendary Fighter
Legendary Luck
Legendary Skill Affinity (Tumble)
Legendary Weapon Focus (greataxe)
Legendary Weapon Focus (throwing axe)
Legendary Will
Maxing out Discipline, Parry, Tumble, Craft Armor. About 20 ranks in Concentration, rest in Craft Weapon. I took Blind Fight instead of Listen, as Listen isn't a fighter skill so I could put at most 43 ranks in it at the last ShD level, and figured a max of 93 Listen wasn't worth the 43 skill points over the equivalent of 60 listen of Blind Fight... that is probably debateable.
Saves at 60, +14 Gear, should be 65F, 65R, 66W.
This build is very much an ongoing experiment and not playtested much. Comments welcome!
