Alright, making a character that's going all the way to 20. I'm a hellknight bodyguard type, have all the bodyguard feats and some intimidation stuff. I'm struggling because once i get to level 17, i've got four more feats (fighter levels), and I have no idea what to get with those feats. I could be boring and pick up some stuff like toughness and improved init. or i could go with a critical feat and critical focus. I'm using a bed de corbin both for variety and also it's a good bludgeoning reach weapon. any suggestions for a non-fighter for high level martial feats? already grabbed protector's strike.


Have you grabbed Archon Style and the Feats that come off that yet? Lets you grant adjacent allies a +2 Dodge Bonus to AC against a foe you're next to, but you take a -2 to AC from him that turn.

Problem is you need Improved Unarmed Strike and Combat Expertise to get it, so if you don't have those yet it's probably a wash. You could get Archon Diversion at level 20 if you went that route though, which means if you have a hand free you can grab an attack that's about to hit a nearby ally and make it stab you instead (it has to hit your AC to deal damage and the nearby ally gets to make an AoO versus the guy), which sounds perfect for a bodyguard.

Ignore this if you've already got 'em.


It would help if you post the rest of your current build.

Agreed. It isn't possible us to recommend feats when we don't know what feats you've taken in your first 16 levels.

The best defense is a good offense. If you have a relatively good to-hit bonus currently you should be able to pull off dazing assault or stunning assault.
