Ok I wanted to play either an Orc or Half-Orc character.
This is a gestalt idea and I wanted to use the Scarred Witch Doctor and pair it with the Invulnerable Rager Barbarian or maybe a Spelleater Untouchable Rager Barbarian.
I know when you rage you cannot cast spells, but you can use hexes and that might be pretty cool.
What hexes would be best to use while raging your brains out.
Side Question: Does Fast Healing stack if its from different sources?
Because I was considering adding a template onto one side, we allow buy off so I would have 1 level of a template after level 6.
One good hex for melees is flight. If your GM allows to use con with it as scarred witch doctor you should consider the hair hex.
What does the Hair hex do and how does using it with Con work better?
Fast healing doesn't stack. I Highly suggest going bloodrager as they have a feat Mad magic that lets them cast any spell while bloodraging.
hair Hex requires you to be in close range, and having a high con helps with that.
Thanks for the information about Fast Healing. The template I was looking at gives fast healing and I wanted to know if it stacked with the Fast healing of Bloodrager.
Oh I see, a natural attack, thats cool.

I recommend A Spell Eater Primalist Arcane Bloodrager//Scarred Witch Doctor
Go Half-orc with alternate traits: Shaman's Apprentice (for Endurance) and Sacred Tattoo (for Saves) Pair with fate's Favored Tattoo for +2 to all saves. If your allowed any other trait from any source I highly recommend Optimistic gambler. Its from a campaign but is one of the best Barbarian/Bloodrager Trait in existence right next to finding Haleen.
You're going to build to get Diehard and Fast Healer Feat. A Spell Eaters Fast healing is considered magical. (Su) abilities are Magic. When you rage you will have very nice fast healing and at 8 you get 50% miss chance. That is a nice front line tank ability.
You're going to want the Feat Raging Vitality as well. Not only does it boost your con higher while Bloodraging. It allows you to maintain your rage while unconscious and allows your fast healing to keep rolling for an Auto stabilize.
For "Damage" Feats. Pick up power attack. You have a few options. Arcane strike is nice but requires a swift action. Raging Brutality is a nice level 12+ feat. It requires a swift action. If you want to take both feats then you're going to need Bloodied Arcane strike so you can dedicate your swift action to Brutality and still get arcane strike damage.
A flavor and Power feat I like is Improved eldritch heritage-orc. Sure it come online later and needs Eldritch heritage but the Inherent STR bonus is worth a lot. It also adds some good flavor. Touch of Rage isn't that bad of an ability either. Not one of the best but not one of the worsts. You can really embrace the Orc side of your Blood.
As for the Primalist archetype I feel powers 12 and 16 are not that great and are easily traded for Rage powers. I like Superstitious and Witch hunter Rage powers as it boosts both Defense and offense. You can also pick up the fabled Come and Get me Rage power if you wish. Or just give 3 powers directly into the beast Totem line. Its up to you but 4 rage powers are very nice touch into this build.
If I was going to go natural weapon and wanted to pick up fast healing I would pick up my favorite half-troll template. Which gives 2 claws and a Bite and with the prehensile hair makes a load of natural weapons.
What I meant about prehensile hair and con:
Normally prehensile hair uses int for damage. The scarred witch doctor uses con instead of int for most stuff. If your GM allows con to damage it is cool for that build.
