It is not available? Ooops! In that case Destined is the best option for rage cycling, and all of its power are useful in one way or other.

galahad2112: Yeap, Traits are: Fate's Favored, Indomitable Faith (+1 Will saves) and Rapid Reflexes. Negative Trait is Proud.

Rycaut: Thing is... you can really get a better bonus with some level 2 spells from bloodragers. Multiclassing too much I believe it would weaken the build quite a lot.

Cap. Darling: Between Destined and Abyssal, is quite difficult to choose, but for a good damage output I think the Abyssal is the way to go, but only with Primalist. Destined is good on its own, I wouldn't add Primalist archetype with that bloodline.

It is true that the speed gain is pretty useless, but honestly, the fact of not getting fatigue is equal of not having the -2 AC penalty while raging, as stopping rage and starting it again becomes free of penalties.
Also, with the Enlarge Person power from Abyssal line, movement is not that important.

That also means that feats and power rages that can be used once a rage becomes once a turn, and that is GREAT. If there would be any other way of being inmune to fatigue, then I would not go for Oracle and choose Magus or something else instead.

About the Destined level 4 Power, is one of the best only if you are taking all of your levels in the bloodrager class. If you are taking levels in other classes, and specially being a PFS game, the maximum gain would be +2 AC and +2 to savings (Luck bonus). And that at level 12. If you compared to an automatical Enlarge from Abyssal bloodline, you gain more melee range, +1 Attack and Damage and can block entrance or cause attacks of opportunity easily.

Hundrax: Paladin would be good, but with such a short Charisma, many skills would be useless :/

I think the best option would be to dip only one level into Oracle only. Bloodrager 11 / Oracle 1 taking the Oracle level right after level 8. Being multiclass more than once is not that useful, and level 11 Bloodrager provides Greater Bloodrage.

PolydactylPolymath: Yeap, I start seeing the Oracle as the best option, specially the Metal Mystery which gives great class skills and add the movement so needed after the curse (I am also considering air, that gives +4 AC). Monk gives better saves, but the Oracle Lame curse would be the best reinforcement. I am dropping slayer out of the list, as its bonus are not really that important at first level, and also bard as the song would take an action that I could use in spells.

Cap. Darling: I was planning into taking at later levels (8?) primalist, with the barbarian rage power of Totem (the 3 of them, being the minor totem power the claws). That is the reason that I was not so keen into taking claws twice.

Definately I would wait until getting bloodrager 4 before moving to other class (Enlarge automatically after rage is just too good to wait :D). After that, it is going to be either 2 levels Monk or 2 levels Metal/Air Oracle.

+ Monk 2 Pros: Better saves, 2 Feats (Dodge, Combat Reflexes), Evasion, More skill ranks

+ Metal/Air Oracle 2 Pros: No fatigue, More spells, More AC/Movement.

Is a real pitty that Flurry of blows would not work with non-Monk weapons, otherwise it may be the best option, but so far I see Oracle a little better (No fatigue after rage changes completely the way of using the bloodrager)

Cap. Darling , game is PFS, so there are no possible changes without spending PP. Claws are ok, but if you compare to a 2HW...

Chbgraphicarts, that is exactly what I wanted, only one or two levels. Main class is bloodrager and when taking the second class would be for a dip only.

But yeap, discarding caster may be the best option anyway, so to keep the BAB full. Skald would not be an option as the morale bonus for rage do not stack, as long as I know. Inquisitor is also dependant on Wisdom, so...

Eldritch Scion is becoming an option that I did not consider it before, so I am limiting my options to these 4:

-Magus (Eldritch Scion)
-Bard
-Oracle
-Slayer

Hello Pathfinder Experts!

I am having some doubts about the second class that I can add to my Bloodrager. I want to add more buffing power and better Willpower saves.

The character in this issue is a Bloodrager 2, with archetype of Steel Blooded and Cross-blooded. Abilities are as follow:

Str 18
Dex 14
Con 14
Int 8
Wis 10
Chr 12

Race is Half Orc (Sacred Tattoos and City Raised features), with the Abyssal-Destiny Bloodline and Toughness as first Feat.

As I am predicting that with the Abyssal powers and tank playstyle that I am using, the character will get A LOT of hits, I rather focus in buffs that can either increase AC/Hit Points or just be able to increase meat-grinding capabilities to an extent that defense is no longer needed :D

Classes I am considering for this multiclassing are:
-Bard (Buffing yourself=good, buffing all the party=great)
-Oracle (Charisma based spell caster. So far my favourite option)
-Summoner (Having an extra buddy as mount/flanker can`t hurt)
-Monk (The best saves)
-Slayer (Bonus when dueling + sneak damage)
-Warpriest (Great buffs to damage)

What would be your choices? More ideas are always welcome!

I did not even considered an Ifrit, and it does sounds very useful. I will probably go with it.

About getting levels in Bloodrager, I am not entirely sure. I am not that happy with multiclassing, but if the second level of Skald is not that meaningful, then I may go for it (The character would be a PFS, so it will take me a while to level it)

Hello guys! I was planning in creating a Skald, as a Spear user and focus in Initiative (Fated Champion Archetype and Improved Initiative Feats).

The question is... which race would you chose for the build? Also, some ideas of interesting feats that will keep improving the PC in speed and initiative?
