I'd say it's a sound tactic, and adaptable to a number of situations, like the examples you gave. You could also use it as a ready action to interrupt a charge, take down a flying opponent...when you've got the cash and your wizard is capable of doing it, you could ask your GM if it would be possible to give the bands the ghost touch ability and give you an effective offense against incorporeal foes.
i was thinking of having our wizard crafting me a glove of storing and iron bands of binding. keeping the bands stored in the glove and releasing and throwing them against escaping enemies, spellcasters and what not. any other suggestions
i am currently playing a 6th level monk and looking at fun/interesting ideas to add to the mix of just hitting and grappling stuff
Looking at your list of Magic Items and gear I wonder if the gloves can be worn with the Bracelets (Should these be Bracers?)of Armor +1 ? This is a call for your GM to make.
The idea of the Gloves and Iron Bands of Binding is a very intresting Idea as both a tactic and a good grouping of item with a creative way to deploy it.
Bracers take up an arm slot, gloves are a hand slot. No conflict there.
That said, sell the bracers of armor and get a Pearl of Power 1. Give it to your wizard and have him cast mage armor on you. He should also have a lesser rod of extend (only 3k), and if you can convince him to extend the mage armor it'll last almost all day, even early on. +4 is much better than +1.
is intimidation worth it or is it a waste to build on? on paper it looks cool but haven't really heard anything useful to do with it
Like feinting, demoralizing is a waste of time unless you're focused on it (and even then the value is debatable). A fighter or other high base attack bonus class can pick up Dazzling Display and Shatter Defenses, which is kind of cool.
