hello as the title suggests I am looking for advice for a Brawler that I am making for PFS currently I would greatly prefer not to multiclass with monk and am hoping to have a arctype that can still do damage (I also hate the grapple flow chart :P)
Human Brawler(snake bite striker)
traits: Bully, Quain Martial Artist
Str 18
Dex 14
con 14
int 8
wis 10
cha 12
Feat progression
1) Power attack, Weapon focus
2) Dazzling Display
3) Boar Style (thinking blind fight may be better but open to suggestions)
5) Weapon Specialization, Intimidating Prowess
7) Shatter Defense
8)Cornugon Smash
9) Hurtful
11) Improved Critical, Greater Weapon Focus
Items of note: Monks robes, Amulet of Mighty Fist, Elven Chain to upgrade ( brawling )
any suggestions are welcome also wondering if the Shatter Defense line is worth it
Thanks in advance.

I really, really like the exemplar archetype. You lose the negliable unarmed strike damage increse (except, you don't; your weapons in the close category still scale, just at level-4), but get a really nice grab bag of goodies in exchange, that more than make up for the things lost. Unlike mutagenic mauler, you don't even lose martial flexibility.
