Thank you all for the helpful responses, I think I'll consider say an Estoc/Kukri combo for earlier levels and figure out the logistics of using heavier off-hand weapons when I have a good BAB.
But uh, on a more subjective note, how do 2-weapon Fighters compare to say sword and shield or 2-hander Fighters? I like the concept I have, but I don't want to end up being dead weight when a tough fight comes along.


I'm very much new to Pathfinder so my first thought was to create a 2-weapon Fighter 'cause that seemed cool at the time. Anyway, after consulting the weapons list I've narrowed it down to these murder machines.
-The Estoc, 2d4 18-20/x2
-The Falcata, 1d8 19-20/x3

For me it's pretty much a decision between critical range and critical damage, since both have very good overall critical modifiers.
I'm somewhat more inclined towards the Estoc because (As far as I know) either Keen or Improved Critical bumps it up to 15-20/x2, whilst with the Falcata it's bumped to 17-20/x3. Also, I've noticed that the feats that add critical effects could be very powerful with a high threat range.

However, since I'm essentially learning Pathfinder I don't have much experience with what's more viable. Any thoughts or pointers would be very much appreciated.
