you're not the boss of me.
Blind Fight.
Once you hit you can spend two stamina to ignore the concealment completely for a round.
Ok, now THAT I like.
Let's...not?
Let's make a thread for it?

pls no
Soooo...it turns expertise into something useful and accentautes blind fight nicely...except you actually have to hit first?
2 combat feats out of how many?
Seriously, I have problems recalling what a lot of feats do now. Their stamina effects? Not a chance.

Spring attack as a standard action, whirlwind attack plus bonus attacks (such as from haste) both seem nice,
Combat expertise has a decent one, spending stamina increases your to hit and reduces the penelty from combat expertise.
Improved crit, to do double damage if you are within 3 of a crit.
Most are bad, or help a little with the penalty the feat shouldnt of even had to start with (step up). I think it was because good feats did not need to become better and bad feats are still bad.

Kirin Style actually kinda works with the stamina system.

No the fighter isn't fixed, but I would say things are being improved. I would commend paizo for that. That ofcourse does not mean the endless fighter threads or martial v caster threads should stop (or should continue). These aren't ethical questions. People express their opinion and Paizo decides whether or not they read/listen to it.
Got interested based on this thread, and put together a Fighter (unarchetyped) build I think is pretty interesting.
Summary
- 10' reach. Can spend an AoO to stop someone trying to 5' step close to him. Does not have trouble dealing with foes with reach. Can switch from ranged to melee at will (swift action to switch from ranged --> melee, free action from melee --> ranged).
- ~Equivalent saving throws to a normal Paladin (level 13, 20 Cha, following Bodhi's old guide).
- Can often act in the surprise round (Perception +24), and can draw his weapon as a free action as part of rolling initiative, which allows him to use AoOs if people try to move through his (decent sized) threatened area.
- Can attack pretty effectively anywhere within a ~150 ft radius effectively.
- Combat stamina (15 points) gives the ability to add up to ~+5 to any attack after making your roll, which will add a fair amount of DPR.
- Can spend an AoO to deflect ranged attack, ranged spell attacks, and massive ranged attacks (boulders, ballista bolts etc) against himself or any adjacent ally.
- This character would be relatively beefy, and generally pretty hard to ignore because of robust damage output and a large threatened area. Saving throws are high enough to likely make most saves.
- Between Perception (+24), Survival (+18), Bluff (+14), Intimidate (+14), and Knowledge (Dungeoneering) (+16), there is some out of combat usefulness.

^That's pretty cool. Wonder if it would be worth trying to squeeze in any Combat Maneuver feats?
One small conceptual quibble: LG + Milani? Seems that should be NG or CG to work right. Or is this in consideration of Milani's special history as one of Aroden's minions?
