Hmm from all the post and builds I am thinking I will go 1 level titan fighter for oversized butcher axe, 1-2 level unchained barbarian for rage rounds and 1 level of ranger for leaded blades.

I will grab all the vital strike feats (if possible), cleave, furious finish, shaping focus. Might get natural focus to cast while in wild shape troll form otherwise I can't cast spells that require materials.

Anyone know what order it might work best for getting the feats? I know vital strike feats are based off of one's BAB so I can't get it for awhile.

Let me offer you a different option ignor it if you are set on the vital strike build.

One level of ranger (guild breaker option depending on the campaign) and shapshifting hunter.

Rage + favored enemy + 1.5 * STR + damage die is awesome. I have something like this in a game right now.

Vital strike is fun for rolling a lot of dice but the best way to double your damage dice is to take a second attack. Haste if the group casts it a lot, boots of speed, aoos being larger or larger (Fortuitous) and using a reach weapon and iterative attacks.

It's a different take but using a huge +1 furious fortuitous weapon is great for cracking skulls.

Thank you both for your replies.

Sadly no one in the group can cast haste. I don't know the name of the campaign if this is one or a made up one. So no idea on favored enemy. I had thought about ranger for lead blades. As far as a reach build I don't really know how to go about it. I had seen mostly vital strike ones which gave me at least an idea on how to make it. As I have limited knowledge of the game. Which is why I made this post hoping for a more detailed way to build this character.

What is aoos?


Still new to pathfinder and found a few post about making a goliath druid. The class sounds great and fun. However, many of the threads used either terminology I didn't understand or didn't really layout anything to how one achieves the goal of the build. I saw that vital strike was a move frequently talked about yet never fully explained how one gets to the point of having crazy dmg numbers with it. So could someone explain a leveling guide on how to get to the point of being a troll with regen and hitting hard with vital strike please? We are also playing mythic teir pathfinder if that changes anything.

We are starting at level 2 using high fantasy point buy. so I was thinking.
1 level Goliath Druid (rage domain)
1 Level Titan Fighter for using a large weapon
Race: oread with almost human alt. Trait. For enlarge person to work on me
Traits of giant blooded and adoption by half elf for ancestral arms to use oversized butcher axe (approved by gm)
