I have two builds in mind for this brawler. The first focuses on mobility, making use of improved feint (as part of my move thanks to Snake Feint) and vital strike to maximize damage when moving during the round which seems to be a lot of the time. Jabbing style is used to get some damage bonuses when flurrying. It also has Armor Prof Medium to get use of mithral chainmail
The second instead focuses on the use of the jabbing style tree, getting the full tree, maximizing the damage done when flurrying. Improved Feint is picked up to help damage when moving into position. Doesn't have the ability to get medium armor
I take an acrobat rouge level at level 2 for extra sneak attack damage and evading ACP, and I want to take a second level for evasion, but im not sure what level to take it, but i dont want to take it before 5 (i want snake feint at brawler 3 as soon as possible). Im thinking taking it at level 6 so I also have the first increased unarmed damage. Any advice you have would be welcome.
Here are the builds for the different brawler types (i put the total level next to the brawler level for bonus feats):
Brawler 2 (3) - Jabbing Style
Level 3 - Improved Feint
Level 5 - Armor Proficency Medium
Brawler 5 (7) - Vital Strike
Level 7 - Gang Up
Level 9 - Dodge
Brawler 8 (10) - Mobility
Brawler 2 (3) - Jabbing Style
Level 3 - Improved Feint
Level 5 - Dodge
Brawler 5 (7) - Mobility
Level 7 - Jabbing Dancer
Level 9 - Power Attack
Brawler 8 (10) - Jabbing Master
I realize Pummling style is considered better as a single feat pickup because of the crit benefit, but I like the flavor of Jabbing style more.
Any Advice?
