Hey all,
I was trying to piece together the build for a chain fighter but was unsure of where to start. Are there any special feats tailored to chain fighting? What classes would work best with putting together a build like this?
I was partial towards a fighter or a cleric but if there are ether options I'm open to them
Just remember that this isn't the spiked chain of 3.5. Which is why you might have noticed the distinct lack of spiked chain threads here.
I have noticed this, does this mean it's just a glorified falchion with worse crit range then?
Well that's a shame. Glad I didn't miss anything at least.
It's funny; I can't really imagine how it's finessable quality can be helpful, since it's no longer a no-damage technical possible weapon.
I mean, if you can finesse it, your dex is higher then your str, but that means your base damage will be much lower. And, it doesn't have the reach of prior so trip, disarm finesse becomes fast less inviting...

You could always try and give it agile but then why use the chain anyway? You're just throwing more feats away trying to get your combat manuevers to be passable. Eh it's a shame there isn't other neat things you can do with it.
There is also the Cornugon Shield, and Cornugon Trip feats.
Both feats are kind of underwhelming to be honest.
You can get some goodies around tripping people and some extra damage if you have Inner Sea Gods by worshiping Zon-Kuthon and going the Sentinel route. That's probably the best route with the spiked chain, and you could probably fanangle a working build, but as others have said it's not the strongest build around
Titan Fighter, wield a Large Spiked Chain?
That actually seems pretty nice. Missing the bonus feat at first level is a bit of a problem though.

I haven't been able to look into this yet but I certainly will.
