Styles for the Harrow Warden


Advice

RPG Superstar Season 9 Top 16

I'm a big fan of the Harrow Warden PrC. I'm planning one for a level 11 start, and I'm trying to decide what style feats to pick up.

The cool thing is that at lvl 11, a Harrow Warden can pick up Stunning Fist normally, and have Medusa's Wrath as a bonus feat from 10.

So I'm entertaining the thoughts of Jabbing Master.

The ideal setup would be connecting with Idiot Strike (either as part of a charge, or on the first attack of a full attack) to soften a bruiser monster's odds of saving against Stunning Fist, to open up a full attack of 5 hits + 2 Medusa's Wrath (+1 Haste probably). Jabbing Master adds +2d6 on the 2nd hit, and +4d6 on 3rd-7th.

Of course, maybe that's redundant/optimistic.

What other style feats would work well for a Harrow Warden (preferably ones that can take advantage of their decreased chances to save)?

Scarab Sages

The Harrow Warden treats the starknife as a monk weapon, so Ascetic Style is very cool for them. Idiot Strike at range is very cool.

Hm, I can't find that on the SRD. Is it a recent release? Does it work with shuriken (preferable since they don't require quick draw)?


Nifty trick with the stunning fist feat, I'm definitely remembering that for my Harrow Warden/human Wanderer monk.

I kind of liked wolf style for a harrow warden, mostly because I think bestow curse is really neat, and it's thematic. It can get it earlier than the archetype, too.

Wolf Savage is totally badass, but the triggers look pretty inconsistent, and I'd probably want to go down the line of trip feats to bring foes down rather than rely on the Style itself. It also competes with your ki spending action (though certainly worthwhile).

Pummeling Style also seems useful for beating DR/pouncing, though it's fairly common as well. Snake Style could lead into grapple-punches.
