Hello,
Please help me create a trip-focussed Warblade, starting at Level 1 and moving up to, let's say, level 8 or so. Playing in a low-magic campaign with a low-op group featuring a Spirit Lion Barbarian, a Druid and a Rogue.
I'm thinking of using a Bastard Sword or Greatsword (a Katana, basically) when indoors, and a Guisarme while outdoors. I'm aiming for mid-optimisation. I am feeling an Asian Samurai style combatant - quite forceful, direct, stern, and tactical. I am not really "feeling" the spiked chain for this character.
Stats are STR 12, DEX 13, CON 12, INT 14, WIS 16, CHA 15, with the ability to swap any two stats around. I'm thinking either swapping STR<->WIS or STR<->CHA.
The combat style I would like to try is revolving around tripping, so I'm looking at Combat Expertise, Combat Reflexes, Knock-Down.
I'm pretty sorted on the maneuvers, it's just the arrangement of feats and any Race suggestions I'd really benefit from!
Can people please suggest feat arrangement on the assumption that
A) Human, no flaws allowed
B) Human or non-human, up to 2 flaws allowed.
I'd be grateful. Forgive my typing style, it is 4.15am here :smallsigh:
