Okay here is the deal. I want to do a build that is focused on making the best claw build in pathfinder, I always end up playing spellcasters and wanted to do something different this time. Here is what I have so far:
18 str
10 dex
16 con
10 int
16 wis
10 cha
I started at level two so I went two level of natural weapon ranger to get aspect of the beast (1d4 primary claw attacks). I picked half-orc for flavor and for the feral racial subtype for backstory, which gives me toothy and a primary bite attack just for fun. I went shapeshifter ranger because it says it stacks with other shapeshifiting abilities and I saw the feat shapeshifting hunter. Shapeshifting hunter ended up being the other core element of my build. Here is my build so far:
level 1 Shapeshifter Ranger Feat: Favored Defense(Orc)
level 2 Shapeshifter Ranger Combat style feat: Aspect of the beast (claws)
level 3 Mooncaller Druid Feat: Weapon Focus (claws)
level 4 Mooncaller Druid
level 5 Mooncaller Druid Feat: Improved Natural weapon (claws)
level 6 Mooncaller Druid
level 7 Shapeshifter Ranger Feat: Shapeshifting Hunter, Bonus feat: Endurance
level 8 Shapeshifter Ranger
level 9 Mooncaller Druid Feat: Shaping Focus
level 10 Mooncaller Druid
level 11 Shapeshifter Ranger Feat: Rending Claws
level 12 Shapeshifter Ranger Combat Style Feat: Eldritch Claws
level 13 Mooncaller Druid Feat: Rending Fury
level 14 Mooncaller Druid
level 15 Shapeshifter Ranger Feat: Improved Rending Fury
level 16 Shapeshifter Ranger
level 17 Shapeshifter Ranger Feat: Greater Rending Fury
level 18 Shapeshifter Ranger Combat Style Feat: Multiattack
level 19 Shapeshifter Ranger Feat: Slayer's Knack (orc)
level 20 Shapeshifter Ranger
total: 12 level Ranger, 8 Druid
This gives me full favored enemy and Druid shapeshifting abilities plus Duel form shifter (which I think is better then master shifter that shapeshiter rangers get at 20th) a total BA of 18, my base saves would be F +14 R +10 W +10 all at 20th. I don't expect to get to 20th level but like to plan all the way to that point just in case. I picked weather for my druid domain, I will be picking a leopard for my Ranger animal companion and have +1 hp as my favored class option for ranger. my shifter's blessing will most likely be bear to start with and probably dragon as my second choice. I think that shifting into a wolverine is my best wild shape choice since my DM said that all of my feats related to claws will still apply as long as I am in a form that has claw attacks. Pretty much all of this is up for discussion, and I will explain things the best I can if need be. I just feel I have gotten to the point that I have mulled over this character as much as I can on my own and am now ready for some feedback. I think anything pathfinder can apply, with approval from the DM. Some of the other characters are using third party stuff but no 3.0 or 3.5 is allowed. Alright? Ready? Go!
