Hello, fellow Playgrounders. I'm working on a bit of an unorthodox build for a tank, which includes bull rushing. There have been two sessions so far, and this has actually saved a companion and two NPCs so far with my ability to control the battlefield by putting enemies where I want them.
However, I'm having difficulty sorting out how exactly I want this character to be built, or what some of my options are, and I was wondering if I could get any tips.
The character is a Fighter/Barbarian, 2nd level, and has a flaw, Implacable. He also has the defense bonus variant, and the following attributes:
Str 18, Dex 12, Con 16, Int 8, Wis 10, Cha 8
AC: 19 (+1 Dex, +6 defense bonus, +2 heavy steel shield)
Present feats: Power Attack, Improved Bull Rush, Pushback
I know he is going to be a dungeon crasher, and I'm looking into Combat Brute and Shock Trooper for directed bull rushes into walls and Combat Brute tactics with Pushback. Am I missing any of the potential options bull rush gives me?
