So, I'm getting to play again, and the concept I decided on was the traditional Final Fantasy dragoon, Kain Highwind. I've figured I'll more than likely use a Warblade chassis, human race, with stat priority being Str>Int>Dex>Con>Cha>Wis. The DM hasn't decided how we're going to figure out stats yet, so I'm just working with an imagined priority list, with INT being moveable so long as I can get at least a 14, mostly for bonus skill points. My manuevers will mostly be focused on the leaping attacks from the Tiger Claw school, since they thematically fit the character, and very likely Iron Heart maneuvers. Obviously, going to keep jump capped, and get all the wonderful synergy bonuses I can. Weapon of choice will be a halberd, keeping a spear and a heavy mace as a backup. Spear mostly for throwing, and the mace to round out my weapon choices.
What I'm running into problems with is feat choices. Power Attack is a given, but I can't think of much else to pick up that would really be beneficial. Quickdraw will come at Warblade level 5, since its the most beneficial choice of the feats I see in the bonus feat selection to the idea that isn't one of the skill based feats. Leap attack at level 6. Really looking for things to help ignore the minimum 20 foot movement or half for jump checks, increasing my jump modifier, or anything to focus on polearm fighting.
Any help or feedback that could be given about the concept would be appreciated.
