So, I was reading the "top 10 list of broken things in 3.5" and one mentioned "WarHulkingHurler". Obviously a war hulk/hulking hurler build.
I thought about building one myself and seeing what it would look like, but changed my mind. I just want to make a non-broken hulking hurler. Here's what I have so far. The stat spread that our DM has us using in the current campaign is 17 16 14 13 11 8. I'll be shorting him on his mental ability scores by just throwing away that 11 because I see this character being dumber than the rocks he throws. So:
17 str (21 after mods)
16 dex (14 after mods)
14 con (16 after mods)
6 int
8 wis
13 cha
Might switch the dex and con around, giving him a 12 and 18 respectively.
Race: Goliath (might do half-minotaur template, scrap the gore attack, flavor as half-stone giant. Haven't decided)
Levels
Barbarian 2 (rage and uncanny dodge)
Fighter 2 (bonus feats)
Ranger 1 (favored enemy, more good saves)
Hulking Hurler 3
Flaws
Inattentive (-4 spot and listen)
bold = flaw feat
italics = bonus feat
Feats
1 - Power Attack, Rock Hurling
3 - Weapon Focus [rock], Point Blank Shot
4 - Brutal Throw
6 - Power Throw
9 - Improved Rock Hurling
12 - ???
15 - ???
18 - ???
What else? I've considered master thrower, but I dunno that that fits the flavor of the build. I see master throwers being rather ninja-ish, full of finesse. This guy doesn't do finesse. Also, any more good throwing feats that I might have forgotten?
