Advice


Ok, so I have a level 2 Inquisitor, and through certain cinematic events, He is going to switch from restoration domain to either the rage domain or Anger Inquisition. I'm having trouble deciding which one and how to go about leveling this char up. So far this is my plan up to around 11:

Current Stats:
Lev 9 Inquisitor (Anger Inquisition)
Lev 2 Barbarian (Armored Hulk)

Str: 20 (16 + 2 half orc + 2 level)
Dex: 14
Con: 14
Int: 12
Wis: 14
Cha: 8

Current plan is to get level 3 inquisitor for the first teamwork feat, then go 2 levels of barbarian for rage powers then Inquisitor the rest of the way. (I know it would have been better to start Barbarian but cant change it now)

Feats/Traits/Flaws/Rage Powers
T) Dirty Fighter
T) Reactionary
F) Poor Reflexes - (Gain Exotic Weapon Falcata)
1) Keen Scent (a flavor thing, cant change it now anyway)
3) Power Attack
3Team) Precise Strike
5Rage) Rage Power (Moment of Clarity)
5) Extra Rage Power (Intimidating Glare)
7) Furious Focus
8Team) Outflank
9) OPEN
11Team) OPEN
11) Extra Rage Power (Terrifying Howl)

So, as you can see, My rage powers are very intimidate based, which should mesh will with the inquisitor. I went with Armored Hulk as the barbarian archetype for the heavy proficiency as I will be the only front-line fighter (several pets in our group will provide flank for outflank) but is there a better archetype to choose? Also, what good options for for feats at 9 and 11Team are there?

General thoughts or concerns?


consider gang up instead of outflank... +4 from outflank may be better, but needs position and pets with the same feat... gang up just needs 2 more melee allies...

Gang-up is something I'll consider.. But with 2 druid pets + 1 Eidolon + one of the druids planning on Melee, I don't think flanking is going to be that much an issue. Plus I don't need the others to have Outflank with Solo-Tactics from the Inquisitor.

Good suggestion though.. Gang-up might be worth my 9th level feat. Although I'm leaning more to something like Cleave.


I'd highly recommend you don't take cleave. Cleave is best taken at early levels for fighters to take out numerous fodder, then they will retrain it at level 4 or level 8 (as long as they have the prereqs) for whirlwind. Cleave just gets drastically worse as you level up, it's awesome low level and sucks high level. Keep that in mind for that particular feat. I'd probably go with the Gang-Up as well as suggested by Bacon666.


Ok, I'll wait on my level 9 feat. If it's looking that Gang-up will be useful by that level I may pick it.

So other than the feat advice whats your thoughts on the build? Is Armored Hulk a good option? Do you see any room for improvement?
