Hunter & Brawler Multiclass! Worth it?


Advice


I have a dwarf Hunter (3rd level) and I am really enjoying it.
I like to fight in melee with my animal companion in flanking position.
When suddenly a crazy idea caught me: and if I will multiclass brawler?
I could use unarmed attacks like my animal companion and change the combat and teamwork feats.
What do you think? It might be a good combination?
I speak of vanilla brawler without archetypes.
Suggestions? Advice about the build?
At the moment my character has these stats and feats:
Hunter 3
Str 18
Dex 16
Con 19
Int 14
Wis 20
Char 12
LV1: Combat Expertise
LV2: Precise Companion (Outflank)
LV3: Precise Strike, Pack Flanking
Some ideas?


If your GM allows it you could change to a wild child brawler. Otherwise, if you choose to multiclass hunter and brawler, you'll want to make use of boon companion to keep your animal companion up to your character level.

Grand Lodge

Wild Child is the only reason to dip just 1 level for IUS, brawler cunning, and martial flexibility without loosing AC levels.

Otherwise it's not worth it.

Also precise strike isn't worth it to rush.


normal brawler means you have 4 levels to work with. you get
temporary feat as a move action, free 2wf, 1 feat, and +1ac.

Exemplar is also limited to 4 levels for full animal companion. it trades the +1ac for bardic performance.

Wild child has you miss out on your extra bonus feats to get a full animal companion, and you still have your flexible feats. probably the best choice for a dip.

WHAT YOU'RE MISSING
if you stay hunter you'll get up to 3rd level casting and an extra teamwork feat. and be 1 level away from having 2 focus up and getting your focus upgraded.

now just one level delays you hunter only one level and gives you 4 minutes of a feat. so like 4 fights that you spend a move action to get a temp teamwork feat. personally I don't think it'd be worth it, but it's not that bad.


I don't think it's worth it.

If you want the ability to randomly obtain a teamwork feat, get Bar-room Brawler as a feat.


Stick with Hunter. Use a rapier and take advantage of Outflank... YOUR critical hits give your PET extra attacks.

Trust me. Playing a hunter now, considered doing what you are doing... stay single class Hunter.

:D
