Hello everyone. First off I'd like to say that this is my first post ever and I've often come here for character concept inspiration. And now to business.
I have a Dwarf Forge priest that I rolled ridiculously great stats on, the problem is that he was my 3rd ever character and I built him for crafting. Later I found out that crafting in Pathfinder has a ton of rules that are confusing to a new player and takes a lot of in game time. So I ended up with a lack luster forgettable character with amazing stats. My DM at level 5 gave my character a boon straight from Torag so that I may rebuild this character almost completely, and so I have access to revamp feats, I switched around my skill placement and my ability scores. Now when we hit a big city I will retrain my class and be hopefully the best tank there ever was.
I'm thinking of having 3 levels in paladin, 7 in tower shield specialist and the remaining 10 in stalwart defender. This would allow me some great saves from the paladins divine health, immunity to disease and most importantly, a way to remove fatigue. Tower shield specialist does a few things, it increases my max dex, gives me extra feats, takes away the penalty to attack while having a tower shield in use and lowers ACP (which with a certain stance power might be bad) my biggest concern is when to take levels in what, and when to take feats. I'm thinking of taking these feats:
Toughness
Endurance
Dodge
Weapon Focus (Dwarven Dorn-durgar) *DM replaced the mastery feat requirement of TWF with this.
DDD mastery
Darting viper
Combat Reflexes
Bodyguard
Stalwart
In Harms Way
Diehard
Intimidating Prowess
Antagonize
Any advice is helpful. Stats are
Str:18
Con:19
Dex:16
Int:10
Wis:18
Cha:13
after racials and level up.
