Catfolk Barbarian build, going for more fluff than crunch

We're fighting a lot of fey, what suggestions do you have for combat? I want to use claws.


I've played one catfolk before, as a ranger, and for them that seems a great way to go since you can get the weapon style of natural weapons. Barbarian sounds interesting. and I think they can pull it off. Unfortunately Urban barbarian does not fit fluff.I would probably up your dex high, use your barbarian to up your strength for damage. Use your dex to hit since your claws are natural weapons. If you don't mind losing the bonus to Perception, Stealth and survival, the Cat's Claws racial trait is great for a clawer. It should stack with Improved Natural Weapon feat if you can take it. I had my Catfolk Ranger doing D8's for claws. The True Savage barbarian works decent, and fits fluff wise (most hunters don't wear armor). And if you go into your Dex to start you should be moderately ok with AC. I would try to take the Nimble Striker and Claw Pounce fit. They are a good combo of fluff and crunch. Animal Fury Rage Power is good fluff and fun, allowing you to claw and bite, very feral.

Silver Crusade

Is this in Golarion or another setting?

If Golarion, the major population centers for Catfolk are in South Garund and Tien Xia, if you're looking for specific cultural flavors to pull from.

Grand Lodge

A two level dip into Unarmed Fighter for the next two levels will allow you to nab Improved Unarmed Strike, Dragon Style, and Feral Combat Training.

This will allow you to charge, even in difficult terrain.

Nimble Striker, then Claw Pounce, these will come later.

Very Cat Pounce.
