So I'm making my first melee character and would like some help since I don't know much about them, and its my first attempt at multiclassing. So far my build goes as follows.
Swordsage3, fighter 2, swordsage 2, telflammar shadowlord 5, swordsage 8
My rolled stats are 17,18,18,14,13,11
I will be taking the shadow walker template and also he is going to have the dark template (was cursed and decided to make the curse into his fighting stlye) love the whole teleport through shadows stuff, especially with the 3 shadow hand maneuvers. Plan is to have the character teleport in and the hide in plain sight from the dark template and then react to the battle as needed.
So question time
1. Str17, dex18, con14, wis18, int13, char11 that the appropriate distribution of the stats?
2. Would it be viable to use a chain weapon and make a trip/disarm build and still be able to use maneuvers to deal decent damage? Would be interested in this more than the next question.
3. If not, I would just go with a 2 weapon fighting style instead. What would be good weapons to dual wield?
4. Feats, I get the basic ones like weapon fineness, 2 weapon fighting, imp trip/disarm and such, but are their any obscure ones that would help out?
Any other tips or tricks would be appreciated also. Trying to learn as much as I can.
Edit: all official books are allowed, dragon magazine stuff needs to be approved before use but is usually allowed.
