Looking for help building a demon hunting barbarian.


Advice


This is for PFS.
Guy is from Mendev and absolutely hates demons because of the Worldwound.
Here is what is written in stone about the character:
Half orc with the Shaman's Apprentice alternate racial trait (Endurance feat)
1) Barbarian- Extra Rage
2) Barbarian- [World Serpent Totem]
3) Barbarian-
4) Barbarian-
5) Barbarian-
6) Barbarian- [World Serpent Spirit] retrain Extra Rage to Extra Rage Talent [World Serpent Totem Unity]
7) Horizon Walker- FT Underground
8) Horizon Walker- FT Abyss, Terrain Mastery: Abyss
9) Horizon Walker- Terrain Dominance: Abyss (weapons count as cold iron)
10 Horizon Walker- FT Urban, Terrain Mastery: Underground
11)Horizon Walker- FT Hell
12) Horizon Walker- Terrain Mastery: Hell, Terrain Dominance: Hell (weapons count as silver)

I already have 1 Two Handed Invulnerable Rager, so I am looking in a different direction for this guy.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.


World Serpent Totem Unity has a prereq of Barbarian 10. You won't qualify, certainly not at 6th level.

Demons often have SLA's. Have you considered going the spell sunder (& maybe supporting rage powers like strength surge) route?

Liberty's Edge

Lesser Celestial Blood makes your attacks count as Good while you're Raging and you do an extra 1d6 vs. Evil Outsiders, so that's a good option for an anti-Demon Barbarian.

I'd take that instead of the World Serpent line, along with Superstition and one of the other (better) lines of Totem Powers.


World Serpent Spirit is a bit of a wasted power provided you are probably going to have a holly weapon and most if not all things you are going to fight before lvl 12 are going to have DR/material OR good and after lvl 12 you are going to ignore cold iron and silver DR. It also gives a resistance bonus to alignment based effects, but that is a bit too situational, so you can be better served by the superstition rage power that gives bonus against all spell like, supernatural effects and spells.
Avr also brings a good point since your narrow antidevil/demon specialization wont help you at all against their spellcasting cultists and minions.
