Item-shopping for a Fighter


Advice

Shadow Lodge

Most of us have heard of those groovy Gloves of Dueling which amplify a fighter's Weapon Training bonus by +2.

...is there anything out there (ideally PFS-legal) which similarly amplifies Armor Training?

(PS. I do know about Sash of the War Champion. I'm looking for something even better.)


Not that I know of. Closest thing is the sash of the war champion.


Sash of the war champ is good since it boosts bravery as well. Armored Bravery is the Bee's Knees.

It is nice, but you can't get it until 9th (10th in my dip-out build under consideration).

Next: What to get for the CHA 5 dwarf? (Items that substitute another attribute for various whatevers are obviously ideal here.)

What prevents you from getting it till that late? Bravery and armor training boosts are still good without armored bravery. Can't you feat the AWT? Sash is just a very cheap item that goes a long way for how inexpensive it is.

Armed Bravery can be acquired as early as level 5 via the feat Advanced Weapon Training.


For the dwarf: What are you wanting to decharismafy? Intimidating Prowess handles that skill. Pragmatic Activator gets you Intelligence-based Use Magic Device--handy for a fighter if you didn't totally dump Intelligence.

Edit: An older list of X-to-Y stuff


As far as general item shopping for a Fighter, potions are too good. Swift Drinker feat + any potion = awesome action economy and lots of utility

I know, and I'll probably get it. But it does use the vest slot (and I had my eye on some other things that went there, such as the Sipping Jacket mentioned below).

I forget what it was (some feat that needed CHA13)

Note that Pragmatic Activator doesn't actually give you UMD as a class skill. (The dip I alluded to earlier is very likely a level of cleric, so the need for UMD is considerably lessened.)

(Thanks for the goody list.)

I cannot find a feat by that name; where are you seeing/getting it? (Accelerated Drinker trait is move action, and the Sipping Jacket takes a body slot and won't work with min/ or hour/level potion buffs like Enlarge Person.) The only feat I could find that permitted drinking a potion as a swift action is Potion Glutton, which has a prerequisite of worshiping an evil god of disease.
